    Going to stick with trusty "Buy it now".
    that's a bummer, can you ask the seller to send via a cheaper method?
    I've purposely bid more than I should ahve in the past, just so I could get the cheaper postage, that's probably worse...

    This week is pay week and I only got paid $200. I should've been paid considerably more plus leave loading because I'm on holidays. I really hate automated pay systems.

    It's funny. Every place I have worked has automated pay systems and people within those companies always complain about being paid incorrectly. But I have NEVER had a single problem.

    Very strange.




    And now for my venting session:

    I have been on leave this week spending the second week of the school haolidays with my wife. We had planned to do a lot of day trips this week and spending a lot of time outdoors, at the beach, etc. but I have been sick since Tuesday! I have spent the week home mostly in bed with a cold. I thought I was getting better yesterday so I went to a dawn service and then the local march, and now I feel like poo again.

    And to top it all off, this was my last week of leave until I get more. NEXT MARCH!!

    Not happy at all…

    Yesterday there was a driver who just decided to park his car like this...



    What's also amusing in this photo - if you look at the far right there's a man and woman passing each other, but in the photo it looks like they're kissing.

    Submerged my G1 Shockwave barrel and screws in H202 for a couple of days. I removed the inner clear purple plastic parts to prevent damage.

    Good news! The barrel has regained it's original color (for now at least) and the screws had their rust cleaned and looks like they have no structural damage, they look nearly new. I assembled it all together and it now seems fine.

    Good thing as I was very hesitant to buy from Ebay and the only person with a sure to be legit barrel was charging something like $42 on shipping alone.

    Nope. He just briskly walked right past me, hopped in his car and drove off before I could get a word in edgewise!
