My father in the late 70s owned a Kingswood ute he purchased 2nd hand from a farmer. It was HK/HT/HG era model. It was fitted with a bull horn. Not as loud as a train horn but equally as funny blowing it on unsuspecting pedestrians. Pity he didn't keep the horn when he sold the ute.

Good to see some realism for a change in an ad other than the obligatory "one lady owner", as if that somehow means the car is treated better than if it was a male driver.

Ad was posted by Steve. Wonder if his partner knows?

Clean sweep for the Republicans

- won the popular vote
- won the electoral college
- won the senate
- won the house

Unfortunately an early sign of the Establishment fighting back, the departing Mitch McConnell has managed to thwart the incoming government by having a never Trumper installed as Senate majority leader. Still many RINOs to weed out in the next 4 years.

Not sure if it belongs in here, or the “What are you listening to?” thread, or in the “I hate that!” thread, but I’ve had an earworm since early today of Kate Ceberano singing Bedroom Eyes. Sugary, soft and pure high notes; she really was a sweetie in her early days of fame.

I booked in my leave from 11/12 to 15/1. I'm hoping to do a day trip down the coast to wet a line before it gets clogged up during school holidays. I have not been down there for about 7-8 years

I'm supposed to go back on the 15th too.

By now, I had been planning to be down along the coast, but a hospital visit ruined that.

Trackside, 29°, beervans, then good music and vibes in the city. Need more Fridays to feel like this.
