Duct tape in a rather spectacular location
on: June 03, 2015, 06:01:57 AM
Well hoping for a cheeky award of the duct tape badge here.

It's not my repair - But I am hoping I will be awarded the badge due to novelty / interest value

So the Sydney 'Vivid' festival is going on at the moment
- This is a pretty spectacular affair where many buildings around the harbour are lit up by lasers
It is a fabulous show - Probably on a par with fireworks at New Year.

We visited the show last weekend  :cheers:
- I was walking over the Harbour bridge and spotted this duct tape repair of some pipes by the walkway and thought, - 'This has to go on MTo'.  :salute:

I enclose my pictures of the duct tape repair, Museum of Contemporary Art and Opera House all lit up for your perusal.
My shot of the OH was taken from where the duct tape was located!!
And also a professional photo(**) of what the Opera House should look like!!  :facepalm:

Yay - I got the badge already  :tu:

I'll tell you what - The moderators and badge team work pretty efficiently here at MTo
Especially considering half the world is asleep at the moment!!

^^^^^ Amazing ^^^^^
Now that shows real faith in duct tape!!

I had to smile checking out the views of the photos in my post above
  • 50 odd view of the duct tape mend
  • 38 or so views of the Sydney Opera House etc

Certainly indicates what is important to MTo members!!!  :)

Not gonna lie.

For the longest time I thought your name was "duke-ta-peck" for some odd reason.

I figured it was a last name or something.....

And after seeing your profile pic it all makes sense now........

You know I did not check too carefully, it was dark, my wee boy was tired etc etc

But I gotta say - As much as I like duct tape - leaky pipes is not a good use for it!!
Better plumbers putty or such like!!   
I was quite surprised to see it there!

We were all looking for duct tape holding up the Sydney Opera House.
