Surgery done. I’m still alive.
I don’t recommend.
Also, this private hospital has room service like a fucking hotel. I just call and order whatever when I’m hungry

Thanks guys. I needed that chuckle
Been watching these McKallister clips and now I’m super nostalgic for 70s British football. And I wasn’t even in Britain. Or alive!
How are you feeling?
Pretty good.
Got home about an hour ago.
Everything is feeling how it’s supposed to.
Thanks, now to start all the bloody rehab.
It’s gonna be at least 3 months till I’m able to fully exercise.

My wife is pushing to move there at the moment…sigh, she doesn’t get it.
Just had 4 days over in Sweden and basically the only hire car I could get was an Electric one - A Mercedes EQA 250+ in the end. I don’t think they are available in Oz but over here they cost around £50k, got it for 3 days for just £60 which was pretty good for a premium car.
First time I’ve ever driven an electric car and the charge anxiety is really irritating. Even though I didn’t really have an issue, I was always worried about having somewhere to charge it as I knew there wasn’t anywhere near where I was staying.
I was able to charge it at car parks of places we were visiting two of the days, which was easy enough, but on the final day I had to charge it at a petrol station as I needed to return it at 90%+. I was at around 55% when I charged it there and I just had to sit around for 45 minutes to get it to 95%. Unless you have a charger at home, it would be a nightmare to own one I reckon.
Cost much less than petrol though, probably charged it 1.5x capacity and cost around £18.
I’ve had an EV for a few years now, never had range anxiety, it’s far less fucking about as I usually charge while I sleep or at the office, very rarely I go on a long enough country trip and have to fast charge - even then it’s 20mins to get 80% charge.
I drove a petrol car in Hawaii this week and honestly it felt like I was driving a tractor.
That’s the thing, I’m sure it would be great if you have somewhere you know you can always charge it, but not having the option to charge it overnight meant I was always anxious about where I would be able to charge it, especially as I drove 800km in 3 days.
Was lovely to drive once I got used to it too, first day I was a bit unsure, but was loving it by the final day.
I saw a Tesla on Kanangra Walls Rd yesterday.
To get to Kanangra Walls Rd you have to get to Oberon. Then it’s like another 30 odd kays to the road. It’s another 37 kays to the lookout.
Fucked if I know if there’s a charger at Oberon or Jenolan(WHich is shut atm. Again).
It’s manageable. Touring around the country on a moto with 360km range there’s times when I’ve adjusted my route, cruised at 90km/h in the Northern Territory and just generally worried about my range.
The infrastructure will get there. It will become available. Batteries will get better.
GO watch the 2nd season of Peaky Blinders? AfterMurphy’s character gets a car. He runs around with tins of petrol in it.
Because there’s no infrastructure for it yet. In England. In the 1920s.
Taking my youngest boy to transformers at the cinema.
I can’t actually remember the last time I went to the movies.
Sometime before the pandemic at least.
He’s very excited.
