And WTF are they doing. 39.9% is not full, so it is rather irresponsible to lighten restrictions going into spring/summer...

The north south pipeline was switch on this year, so that's probably part of the decision

Edit: Ahhh yeah... what Greg said ^^^

The only thing stopping me from washing my car now is time :D Too freaken busy :O

You have listed a Supra / 300ZX / MR2, which are the cars you "did" have, you would be busy washing 3 cars on your own.

:(

Yeah, I need to change that :D Just refer to my sig for my car list.

You can now wash your car at home using a bucket or a high pressure cleaning device

- You cannot use a hose to wash your car

- You can of course use rainwater as you could under all stages of restrictions

This change has been made possible through a combination of factors:

- Melburnians commitment to water conservation the community has saved an additional 34 billion litres since the start of the voluntary Target 155 campaign. Melburnians have used just under 150 litres per person since the target 155 campaign commenced, a tremendous result.

- New sources of water are now on line and these add a new level of security and include the Tarago Reservoir and the North South Pipeline

- We have had much better rains. We had enough rain in Autumn to thoroughly wet the catchments and with the good winter rains storages are rising at over 1% per week. Currently our water storages are ~12% higher than the same time last year which equates to about six months consumption.

- Work on the new Desalination Plant at Wonthaggi is progressing very well, with completion still on track for late 2011. The desal plan will add another 150 Billion litres per annum which is about 42% of current annual water usage

I think if i hooked up my high preasure hose people walking the street would give me dirty looks just like when i washed my dirt bikes with it.. there like WTF ARE YOU DOING?!?! SAVE THE WHALES

    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like  
    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.
