Hmnnnnn. I did go hunting on the net yesterday. An omni directional 6.5db gain broomstick should set me back about 100 bucks and then add on a patch cable for the s5 (cheap) or an induction cradle (more expensive) for a booster free antenna only solution.

Priority of projects though.... I need to get the motorbike on the road first.
 
Dickheads in the left lane who put their indicator on to merge with the traffic in the right hand lane and immediately assume that 2 flashes of the indicator give them the god given right to cut someone off ! Fuckwits!
This happened to me today,this dumb bitch in a brand new 4 wd did it as described above,changing lanes ?,give way!was tempted to give it a nudge thus bending its " oh my car is better than yours plebe,out of my "attitude a wake up call.
And then had the nerve to gob off at me in its rear view mirror,with driving habits and a mentality like that her car won't be pretty for much longer.
 
It pissed me off no end in QLD that drivers just DO NOT realise that letting someone change lanes from the left is an option. Shocking coming from Melbourne where I was used to people slowing down and letting people in. Anyway....

Saw that they dropped the limit on the freeway over that bit off cross road to 90 because of those f'wit trucks. Well, not going to affect the average South Aussie driver cuz they drive at 60 in the 100 zone anyway. Won't stop the trucks either by 10kph...

I will give you a free tip as a former radio tech

Car kits for mobile phones make **** all difference in the end. You MIGHT get a slightly better signal in marginal areas...but thats it

Once you are outside the critical limit for coverage, nothing will help.

Dang. Thanks but arghhhh. Oh well, can't make an x-trail more 4 wheely.... Gotta submit to it! Sigh.
 
Been sitting watching a blank screen on the telly for a week with the constant reminder "No Signal". Talked to the neighbour and it seems the digital frequencies have all changed and the box needs retuning. Aw well should be alright for the Singapore GP this weekend.

On the subject, seven or or so cars, bumper to bumper, entering a motorway. FFS, how can they possibly integrate?
 
Undoubtedly because the car up front has hit the freeway at an earth shattering 50km/h and the 7 or so drivers behind now have the shits.
 
Or every idiot already on the freeway decided to stay in the left hand lane when they can see the cars about to merge.

Got home today from wakeboarding and the house had been broken into. They left the back door open and couldn't find the cat who is strictly an inside cat. Found her after several hours. Two laptops, two cameras a brand new modem still in the postage wrapping and a handbag gone.

******* junkies! They didn't touch my beer or cigars so I'm drowning my sorrows.

Ah well, could be worse.

God that shits the **** out of me. Lost two tralies and a ute full of plumbing tools from my old address. ***** would pinch anything not chained down.
Actually, the WR-F was chained down, so scratch that.

On another note, I certainly hope those computers and cameras didn't contain any - erm - 'sensitive' material you may have forgot to backup - or erase.

Yes, could be embarrassing worse.
 
G'day guys me and the wife went out on the piss last night. Had a great night together drank some great craft beers. We were drinking and talking minding our own business when the table next to us someone obviously said something hilarious. Didn't mind the laughter until we heard this bitch yell out "LOL!" What the ****? Who the hell says lol? What's wrong with laughing?

Someone actually said to me the other day - "That makes me sadface". I nearly stabbed them in the face. WTF is wrong with people.

Yeah. I've had a mates dirtbike stolen from a previous house before. I sold mine a few months before, made me feel even worse that only he lost his.

And I'm 29 with a smoking hot 21 year old girlfriend... To say there is sensitive material on all laptops and cameras is an understatement. We're trying not to think about that part so much.
