Ready for a good laugh? Join me :D

Getting ready

Follow up:

Strapping the tank so the crane can pick it up

Rising

Rising……..wait a minute……

…..oh, someone finally gets the idea that a crane that is NOT higher than the building cannot possibly lift a tank on the rooftop.
10 points for him…..

…..while Mr. Brainy down here can only look in disbelief - Good job! ;D!

lol...that's funny. You'd think when heavy machinery is involved, they'd think that through better!

Not in Kuwait, Annie ;)


Yeah, Øyvind, or: I promise, my crane is tall enough......!


@Catherine, they stopped working with that crane.
I gotta go to our rooftop and see, if they have the tanks up there now.
But I think they do.
Must have gotten a new crane.
They don't care ;)

Which is why, up until recently, these people lived in tents in the desert.

Oh I wonder what they did. They couldn't carry them up, I guess they got a bigger crane?

That's my whole morning - no one realizing that the crane is not taller than the building.
Brilliant.
Thanks for sharing,
Frances

Maybe they manufactured new tanks from scratch on the roof. :)

Good work Shauna, in my opinion Nicole brings us many unique gems each week. :)
