money (or funds)... inactive Explanation: Hi Eyro, I would perhaps make a slight tweak to your suggestion: "Once the summer is over, I have no interest in having either my money ( or funds) or a saw cutter inactive for 9 months." Saludos, eski |

frozen money Explanation: Considering the context (and without further context), I'm *guessing* it's 2 Ice Machine Engineers discussing temporary summer contracts here, and not being happy about it; Thinking along these lines, I would think one is saying to the other: "Once the summer is over, I don't want to be left with cutters in hand, and frozen money for the next 9 months." ("frozen" having a double meaning here, considering their profession - definitely detecting sarcasm). Again, I stress this is just guesswork... |
