  5. Only yesterday I was watching a reaction to stupidly expensive car finance loans (in the US) - one couple went into $0 down-payment then $580 per month or something like - which in the current market is very reasonable, some are up to 2k(!) - but, over 287 months - that's nearly 24 years. Not even a new car either - will it last that long?
  6. "I want to be happy." "That depends on what you consider happiness to be."

  18. Cloudy but hot, and muggy. 28° C, wind SW gusting 15, UV = don't go out there! Pollen = did you really want your nose anyway? Occasional sunny intervals scorchio.
  19. Thinking about lunch.....
  20. "She can suck-start a leaf blower" ? Thank you, James Cameron.
  21. 20° C, cloudy, SE wind gusting 13, actually quite pleasant.
  22. Another Korean pot noodle with, yes you guessed it, sourdough bread.
