85% black/white/grey - not just black. The colours that are either on the monochrome scale, or weird hybrids that are closer to grey than - for instance - blue. Largest chunk of that would've been white, I'd never buy a black car in a place where summer gets well into the 30s and above.

If you looked up official stats for Australia I'm sure it wouldn't be quite as high as 85%, but at that time there were startlingly few cars around Belconnen CBD that had any sort of pigment to them.

White cars generally hold their resale value better. Or so I've been told.

Doesn't surprise me, it's harder to see damage like door scratches and trolley dents

Made:
Picking up piano again after ~1 year, and progressing through the 'lesson songs' really quickly, it isn't all gone like I thought it was! At my best I was intermediate-ish and could play songs like Scarborough Fair, The Entertainer, Over the Rainbow, etc.

Ruined:
Watching this guy and realising the light-years between us.


The only thing I could think afterwards is "Duuuuude". Absolutely mental. With the light effects he's got going, after the video finished there were a whole bunch of stationary objects that wouldn't stop moving...

There's a definite future for you in building high rises in Sydney.

We'll definitely grab a couple of Araucana's but they're bloody hard to find as day olds. I'll hang out till the others are a bit older, then grab them as point of lays.

Next, I have to buy some ducks, and then some cows.

I'm a farmer, now.
