18C and high clouds, no rain.

Nice job Roger, looking nice and glossy. Super cool Mustang must have been distracting.

Nice, can definitely see an improvement in gloss.

Finished the wash, just starting to pack up.

Wish her a happy birthday from me, it might surprise her to get birthday wishes from down under.

Finally got to hand wash the FJ, it must be over 2 months, and the last one was just with ONR. Started with Bowden's Wheely Clean on the wheels, almost no bleed off so that was good. Next was TWHS Hyper Foam on the tyres, plenty of browning as expected. Then straight to the 2B wash with Reset...

We hit almost 21C, not a cloud in the sky, but very windy, good for drying the ground though. I've been watching all the old CSIs, most of the main guys are d1cks, but the female leads make up for it, especially Emily Procter from CSI Miami.

The last toaster I bought lasted just 3 months, it had good reviews, but can you even trust them anymore.

Same, although not the same things, but there's things I can do, and enjoy doing, and thing I can do, and don't enjoy, but there's a nice big list of things I can't do. I think it was Dirty Harold who said, "a man's got to know his limitations", and I do.

The rain has finally eased this morning, but the flood waters are still flowing downstream. These floodplains will take weeks, if not months to drain. Roads are closed everywhere, it was taking people more than 2 hours to get out of our suburb this morning. All the cattle, horses, and kangaroos...

Hope the system is mostly drained before it gets to you, and it doesn't last as long.

I used to see similar marks on my white wagon, where I was parking at work there was a few eucalyptus trees, they drop sap on warm days that can drift a bit on the breeze. I found that the cooler the paint the harder it was to remove, so I tried to wash with warmer water, during the afternoon...

Instagram reel, don't know if this will work on here.

Fingers crossed the meteorologists know what they're doing, we're supposed to have a rain free weekend. Full wash for the FJ coming up.

These were at BigW, the National Icons were $4, and I managed to get the whole set, but I got the only No.4 they had, The HW Boulevard were $8.75 each,and the other 2 were $3 and change.

I had to do a factory reset on my garage TV, it went completely schizo, it would show tv randomly, jump in and out of menus, and half the buttons on the remote weren't functioning. About 15 attempts at entering the right menu and putting the security pin in before I got it to work. I really...

Still raining, I don't know if the hood has lost its hydrophobics or if it's just clogged, the roof has some patches too.

I was trying to catch a rain drops hitting one of these big beads, best I could do was some ripples.

I found a lively discussion online around the wood vs steel chassis debate. How on some old cars the wood chassis was still good, but the later steel chassis have been replaced several times on newer cars, and how wood chassis gave better steering feel.

In my teens I found this little book at a second hand book store, The Observers Book of Automobiles from 1967, and it was then that I realised the Marcos was a real car, not just a random toy, I lost the toy Marcos, but I still have the book. Interesting fact, the early ones had a wooden...
