you cant avoid coins though. topping up myki on the fly, paying for beers over the bar, parking ticket machines, milk bar etc.

I'm looking for a new wallet cause the zip that holds notes/coins in is stuffed. so sick of dropping coins everywhere. Have a spare wallet but nowhere to put coins or even notes securely.

coins go in my pocket til I can dump them in my car or drawer

not even...standard headbolts will suffice as long as threads are tapped clean and correct (not OEM) torque is applied and retorqued after 1000kms or so.....its around 75ft/lb instead of factory spec'd 55 ft/lb iirc...

the original design was based around an asbestos HG...new laws disallowed this at the last minute toyota had to change their gasket design to not contain asbestos....unfortunately this meant the torque specs should of changed but with no time for RnD on the new gasket it didnt happen...so the average lifespan is about 100,000kms.....OEM Headgaskets have been redesigned a few times to help solve the problem but (some) aftermarket gaskets have of course copied their design by now so most quality branded ones will work fine.....The real issue is in the torque specs...

and that concludes todays lesson on ye olde 7mge boys and girls...

its funny coz its true

yeh, I knew that, but I thought the usual fix was to bin the OEM ones anyway in favour of new ones and ARP don't cost that much anyway

Tending to use a money clip these days though, with all the money I'm making. #ETU

You sure it's not cos all the other cashed up bogan tradies use them?

Yeah, quite liked the coin pocket in my old wallet, coins can come in handy a surprising amount. (Lol pun intended)

But no coins pocket is just so slim etc. So now I do the same as above, into pocket (bonus if pants have coin pocket) and then into car or onto my desk once home. Accrue small fortune and all dat.

Downsides include I can then sometimes forget to take said coins, and they never get used and end up having to break a note; resulting in acquisition of more coins. Dat cycle.

Cows are okay, but we need to find another 80ish acres to store them for 6 months until the grass starts growing again, otherwise they have to be sold as there is no feed for them anymore

Been shit though we are stuck at home, all the roads are currently blocked off so if we go into Kilmore or Wallan we can't come back home, even though there is no risk to our place anymore

Power has been off for 2 days straight now too, so running a generator to have at least some power

[Sunkist]

That's f**ked man. What's the estimated loss?

"Australian Man Drought"

Good news for single brahs

“Australia has 100,000 more females than males even though there are more male babies born than females, and there are more males than females until around age 35,” he said.

Prob because all the aussie guys are dating foreign girls. And the girls don't want dat asian time

who knows man, I know it will be quite a bit considering all the livestock. A lot of people will need to sell and lose heaps of money because they don't have the feed and prices will be extremely cheap because everyone is selling. Then all the buildings etc that did get burnt, adds up quickly

That sucks, can't bring in hay or something?

Hard to find it when everyone wants it, especially being summer as is and it's hard enough to source

[blah_blah]

Would be covered under business insurance wouldn't it?

[KURAUN]

not everyone, as some as hobby farms (like ours) which aren't under business insurance

100,000? 0.4% of the total population.

just look at the life expectancy: 76-78 years for male, 84-86 females.

I dont have a % for women older than 78 but it could almost compete with 0.4%. Not to mention life expectancy of aboriginal men being in the 60's i think (aboriginals are now around the 500,000 mark of our population).

Also need to take into account the number of lesbians, which may or may not compete with the number of gay males. and also cat ladys, but wont have a % figure on that.

Damn perhaps theres an off chance there is surrounding damage covered under house on contents insurance

i avoid carrying coins, the end result is you make a trip to the bank every couple months to make a deposit.

Same here, I normally empty my wallet of coins each day and just put em in a tin or something

$2 coins I sometimes leave in there though lol

[Birds]

Bullshit. You get change for your notes, it comes in coin form, you carry it home. You're a coin carrier, whether you like it or not.

Thus for all the note only hipsters, a wallet with no coin spot is impotent and futile, as it defeats the point of a wallet in the first place, which is to keep all your shit together in a neat spot. So unless you're going to spontaneously offload your change coins onto some unwilling recipient right then and there, you might as well carry coins and notes and cards all loose in your pocket, or buy shit that adds up to exactly a note, or get a wallet with a f**kin coin spot.

I don't need a cigarette I'm just always pissed off.
