Late yesterday afternoon after Sunset I got a phone call from the Station owner to ...come over to the
airstrip, bring a large rag and the camera, I thought he must have found a newborn foal or a calf in distress. I knew I should have taken the trailer over but didn't , anyhow when I found him I just burst out in laughter, below is what I found, him standing beside the Triton Dualcab and the drum on it's side . now we have all heard of Superman, Spiderman, Batman, and the Elongated Man, here at Mt Bundy we have..... MOLASSES MAN. The drum had built up a lot of pressure in the heat up here and when he undone the bung he copped it.

G/Day Doug
I suppose he stripped off and went back to the house in his Undies.
Many a time I have gone home in my undies when unblocking a Vertical Sewerage Stack and things have gone Pair Shape.
The
Cook use to spray disinfectant over me and hose me down in the back yard before I was allowed in the house.
Cheers

Hi Doug,
When I was Dairy Farming in NZ, we held a few drums of molasses over from one calving to the next...and you guessed it...they blew in the summer heat. They were bulging so much we were afraid to loosen the bungs and get sprayed..or even lose an eye if the bung blew out, so we stood back, took aim and used the 222 to deflate them.
Worked
well and didn't waste much.
