Reversing

One friend was taught (in NZ, if that makes any difference) to turn with your left arm over the seat and looking to the rear. Although she can also park with mirrors. Another friend is absol...

SLOW WIRELESS BROADBAND
(Preview)
Here in Batemans Bay. I have full strength wireless broadband cover but there are so many people here it has slowed down heaps since yesterday. More than likely it will stay that way until Tuesday when most people have left the area. I will just have to keep calm I reckon.

Took Myrtle in for a service today after coming back to Biggy for some final chores. He tells me he suspects one of the valves is burnt out. Should be ok for the trip back to Vic so I can get the original people to look into it. What more can I say.
