rural, fridge was probably older than the house. maybe if the entire wall was black or whole power point was black would you worry.

Martin turning on fridge for the first time:

 

it was the place in melb, fridge bee there for 10 years moved it the otherday for first time and saw that power point.

Looks like I've cracked the gas bill mystery. Meter reader got a digit wrong...
Used 25 cubic meters, not 225 cubic meters. I guess a 3 can sort of look like a 5? Meter was still covered in cobwebs

Road trip brah.

You have a taxi, it'll do it easily.

Bit of a boring race yesterday, once Riciardo dropped out of the running the crowd lost a lot of interest.. was good watching them for a bit but gets repetitive seeing no overtakes, left about half way through the race. On another note the V8 supercars were pretty cool.

Need to go to bathurst.

or even better for a specator Winton is great as most of the front straight area you can see the entire track from one spot

 

if in the country thinking of doing corporate area this year

[Leroy Peterson]

That's just F1 in general isn't it?

Would rather just go to PI historics. Or sports sedans.

[UNR33L]

I like the idea of Bathurst but I reckon once I got there I'd get a bit bored, like 160 laps or whatever it is.. gotdayum. 

[emts]

thus 24 beers a day.

All historic races are awesome, one of my car bucket lists is to go to goodwood revival (been to the Festival of speed so this is next)

Also best racing in Au in my books currently is the Touring car Masters followed by the GT series (basiclly GT3 cup) then the supercars.

Moto GP is where it's at for excitement these days IMO 

[emts]

Speaking of Bathurst... this just popped up on my feed, funny bloke  Did well to avoid getting hit

[Birds]

I don't really trust any videos these days, might have worded them up before attacking people so they wouldn't react violently...

Still funny

I know the telstra is the worst, but sometimes it would be nice to be pleasantly surprised.
Day 10 of no broadband and someone today suggested to pickup a dongle from the store and call billing and get them to take data from your plan to the dongle. Why hasn't any of the numerous people I've spoken to not suggested this before??! f**king hell.
And one of my old friends from school does or used to work for telstra as a complaints manager or something, he's been sending emails or something and lo n behold nothing has changed. Call centre shooting emails left right and centre and nothing happens. They talk like it's a strange situation and quite rare, yeah bullshit. 50,000 TIO complaints a year directed to Telstra don't lie.

[UNR33L]

It's not just Telstra it's all ISPs, I've had bad experiences with the lot of em through work.

Less with the smaller ones (TPG etc. but that's purely because less of our customers use them)

TIO complaint got me out of the GFs shitty ADSL connection with MYreplublic, after numerous 1 hour + waiting in queue to their call center.. now using Optus 200GB 4g gateway for $70 a month. Hacked the modem to lock it to 4G 2300mhz to keep the speeds at 12mbps down.. thats the best we can do at her place. No cable, ADSL got 500ms ping and <1mbps. and ofcourse no nbn
