(Preview)
According to a secret Toyota dealer memo, Toyotas new 300 series 3.3ltr diesel drinks oil like a sailor on shore leave. 1.7ltrs in less time than the standard service schedule allows, service it every three months perhaps...I can see another DPF comedy ( funny only because I don't own one ) coming.

The Melbourne International Comedy Festival and Barry Humphries.
(Preview)
The Melbourne International Comedy Festival. What a mob of hypocritical self-aggrandizing weasels.

Silos - how do they work?
(Preview)
I'm sitting in my caravan on Kerang Racecourse, Victoria gazing through the window at a block of silos and realising I have no idea how they work. They store grain, I realise, but how does it get in there? And out? What are the chimney like things for? What is the tall dark grey tower for? These are mysteri...

Its a serious road violation as a driver must have proper control of the vehicle, and having an animal or another person on your lap while driving is not considered to have proper control. Itll...

Public holiday, a reasonable number of people enjoying the public parks. Happened to be passing through a few public parks on a walk, needed to duck in for a number one. All the toilets locked. Really! End result had to water a tree, at least discreetly.
