Great deterrent :rolleyes:... you pay more for parking here in Sydney. It's almost worth getting the fine.

At no point do I endorse the deliberate damage of a persons car but this would piss me off enough to consider it after it happened twice in 2 days....:D:D

i remember my friends mum parked too close to a car once. when she returned there was a printed note on her car with a picture of Micky Mouse pulling the finger and it read " Thanks for parking so close d@$#head, next time leave a fu@#ing can-opener so i can get into my car".. i thought that was pretty effective and to the point.:D

Whatever it is I found it on some video gaming forum, think it was like for video game soundtracks but it was actually an animated gif where this creature would blink and his pink tongue would stick out. Yes he does look creepy but at the same time he looks so fluffy and innocent!

Moved house today.

Trying to set up the TV in my new room and I can't seem to get myself a signal. There is no external antenna point in this room so I have to make do with a rabbit ear like internal antenna.

I move it around and around and get no digital signal. The analog signal is terrible at best...... sigh

Ever heard of a coathanger antenna? I made one using affordable materials from JayCar electronics and coat-hangers and it recieves both digital and analog signals to high quality.
A tutorial on the basics can be seen here.

Though I've found that I couldn't get all channels with the setup this video showed, I got a UHF/VHF signal combiner from satplus.com.au and this next video shows you how to incorporate it into the base design : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Jh3M931WUU

I highly recommend this method as it has provided excellent signal strength and personal satisfaction of building your own TV antenna!!!
