Surprisingly smooth commute in this morning, thought it must've been school holidays still.

Reckon half of Adelaide must be Working From Home still.

Your drive to work would do my head in. If you use South Rd and any expressways, I'd love to know how much time (if any) these billions of dollars worth of road upgrades have saved you.

I'm only going as far as Wingfield now. The flyover shaved 5 mins off the commute when I was going further north. The new underpass thingy is a lot swifter, but there is a bottleneck at Ashwin parade coming off it. South road sucks all the way along from here. Often once I'm past the tram line I'll cut through Glandore to avoid the crawl south of the train overpass. In the mornings I usually head up Marion road all the way, only getting on South rd at Thebarton.

This all depends on the exact time too; leaving in the evening after 5:30 can be 10-15 minutes quicker than leaving at 5:00.

Went out to get a hot chook and chips at about 6:15 this evening. Tried 3 different chicken shops. Not one hot chook between them.

A weeks lockdown wouldn’t have helped their cashflow here
Probably no stock due to no moolah

Did you go past that massage joint again?

On another note, do you have a Costco membership? They have the best chickens going and at half the price.

Got in trouble for not wearing a mask while walking around the office.

Filthy!

We aren't yet, although if sales are allowed back in the office it will all change.

Got home to find the internet on the blink.

Checked the ISP website on my phone. Checked the NBN website. No outages.

Power cycled the router. Still no connection.

Called the ISP for support. Does some checks, finds the line is ok. Has me do a hard reset on the router. He assures me that it is pre-configured and will connect automatically.

He lied.

An hour later I manage to re-configure the router with the correct WiFi and internet settings - at least, I think they're correct.

Internet still not working.

Expecting the ISP to call back tomorrow during business hours - when I'm at work, nowhere near the router.

FML.

The problem may be from outside.

I started getting 5 drop outs a day from my NBN50 plan and rang my supplier Internode after I'd tried rebooting. The Internode tech told me that the NBN people would not be interested if I was dropping out less than 8 times a day but we looked at my speeds which were around 33 Mbps and he said they would respond to that. About a week later an NBN tech arrived, checked my house and said it looked like the problem was outside the house, and went of to check the situation leaving a signal generator plugged into my modem connection in the house.

About an hour later he came back to report he had found an underground fault in the area and had changed my connection to another underground line. Bingo - 53Mbps and no more drop outs...

Gotta give it time for the microchip from your Pfizer jab to switch your home internet over

Just had my second Pfizer. The interwebs should be working by the time I get home!

You're making the same mistake I made in the hours after my shot!

Maybe getting pissed is a side effect of the jab?

Nuffies driving with their fog lights on when there is no fog

Get to Cape Jervis at 11 for 12 noon ferry to KI, only to be told it's cancelled and they can't get us over this week.

Full refund, thanks.

Keep an eye on your bank, will be back in a week or two.

Was going to over for a weekend when I got the Wildtrak.

$600 just in ferry fees can get effed.

Went to the Flinders Ranges instead for $400 all inclusive.
