Re: What makes you happy today?
I saw an episode of RBT where a teacher got sprung and found over the limit and the insolent almost childish attitude be showed the cops like he couldn't stand being on the recieving end for once.
He came across as a pretentious c### too.

Saw this article pop up on the ABC News website... Love it when Politicians put their foot in it, especially when it's so contradictory to what they supposedly stand for. Really goes to show how disconnected the "Big City" (*cough* Melbourne and Sydney *cough*) types are from reality.

Let me get this straight, misbehaving brats suffered consequences for wrongdoing? I'd far sooner believe there are extraterrestrials here on Earth.

Re: What makes you happy today?
Hope the local media in Townsville shame the pupils and highlight the school they attend.
Private schools tend to be very touchy about misbehaviour of their pupils reaching the media.
But then they'll also be 'legends' among their peers.
I don't condone their actions, but at least it was only flour.

Yesterday's episode of Judge Judy was a corker, the second case in particular where she clearly made sure the defendant was as humiliated as possible

They are now replaying older classic cases within episodes, possibly due to Covid.

Seeing this face - this is one of Australia's most interwebs famous puppies (as her owner calls her). This is Kelsie, she's 5 years old and lives in a 2019 Kenworth K200 2.8 Big Cab..... did I mention she's also a rescue puppies? Her owner rescued her from his nearest RSPCA shelter when she was 6 months old and she's lived in a truck ever since! Her ID tag says "I live in a truck. Rego TONES"

Re: What makes you happy today?
Achieving sub 7 litres per hundred in my 89 Ford Meteor for the first time the other day after 11 years owning it.
It got 6.7l after about 80% freeway driving which involved staying under 100 unless I was behind a truck doing 100 or more which cuts down wind drag.

That's a bloody good result! Probably helps that those 80s saloons are a much more modest size than today's oversized Corolla and Camry-like vehicles.

Re: What makes you happy today?
Just looked up it's kerb weight. 1020kg and that is the heaviest model apart from the TX3 versions.
The rest are just under the one tonne mark!
The overdrive 4th gear has a lock up stage which keeps revs lower at highway speeds.
