Currently lying in bed considering the fun I'm about to have. Oil change, spark plugs, broker cover if its still screwed up after I swap the plugs. Then refuel I suppose. I cannot believe how many pieces of metal and plastic are in the tank! Made it a mission o drain it...now I have 20l of year old fuel. What should I do with it?

Use it as mower fuel or put it in your car when it is empty then fill it with 95

Camping is good until it comes to sleeping and cleaning...Ground is not my friend and i dont like feeling dirty all the time... So i don't go. I sound like such a city slicker. But otherwise its a good time haha. It would be good if you had one of those huge ass caravans that people have. THEN i'll go camping more often

i went with a mate who is an avid bushman/camper.
he actually made a really great damper which he cooked in the ground in a pit (buried it) with sultanas in it. oh boy. could have eaten that all day.

yea cleaning sucked lol. filled 4 plastic bags with rubbish. tied them all and anchored them to the ute and drove away.
i *think* they were all still there when we got home

So far today:
  • Drove down to Wollongong
  • Sat my Networking exam - quickest exam ever! Only 45 minutes.
  • Drove back to Sydney, to work
  • Grabbed the tips for todays' Cup. Not sure if I'll bet on the Cup itself but I'll back some other races.

Now I think I'm gonna drive home and debadge the Astina before I go up to the pub for today.

As my office are avid punters it's only a half day today, which I've missed most of because of my exam. Fun times.
