Aw spotted a Koala sitting on the road in the hills just before - Adelaide-Lobethal Rd - sitting just to the side a little but still on the road - felt as though we had to do something with the way it was sitting there the poor thing. Me and my mates in my car pulled over as far to the side as possible with the hazards on. Really wanted to help it but couldnt risk getting minced to bits by it's claw wouldnt have a clue how to handle it until I got home just then and googled it. Poor thing was sitting there licking it's wounds, blood on it's snout and blood around it on the ground. Cars driving past were slowing down as soon as they saw us - the ones driving harder would have hit it if it werent for us standing around there lights from the car etc. Called up RSPCA asked for advice on what to do with it - the guy that answered was fair useless and sounded like he didnt give a rats. Koala ended up getting scared and walked(almost limping) to the side of the road, infront of cars that slowed down/stopped by us, stayed there for a bit then walked back across the road and up a tree and stayed there.

Sounds silly but couldnt leave the the poor thing there - had to atleast try to do something and got it off the road and back into a tree.

i get to go through the work inbox til feb, yay. f**k i love reading spam emails :(

Anyone see the lightening display lastnight? I was putting my car away lastnight when I caught a glimpse of some lightening. Stayed outside for about 30 minutes and watched it and it didn't rain once! It was surreal!

yeah i was at grange jetty when it was happening don't use graphite rods in electrical storms my rod was sparking pretty weird and my mates rod was doing the same thing. lol

awww Vu quiet the humanitarian Kudos

I went back to it today to get a precise location and reported it to the Cleland Wildlife Park animal rescue. Exactly 15.2km straight up Magill Rd into Adelaide-Lobethal Rd just before a bend - vehicle can be parked at the bend - Koala is sitting just up on a small tree. I went to the RSPCA they got a cartoon picture of a Koala on their front window with it's arm in bandage along with other cartoon animals... but when I went inside they say they cant handle that kind of wildlife even if I brought it to them! Useless. Hope someone gets to it to provide some help - this is about all I can do without getting mauled by a Koala lol

Good to see some compassion in this world Vu.

Some days you just cannot drive past when you see some of these things.

I remember one day walking home from school and I walked passed this bush next to the footpath and I heard this rustling then a crunch. I look down and I had stood on a bird that quickly flew out of the bush. I picked it up and put it back into the bush and covered it up a bit (At this point the thing was already dead). I just felt so bad for it I was pretty upset for a few days or so.

But the thing was I didn't just want to leave it on the footpath, so I moved it off into the bush so it was kind of hidden from anything

RSPCA are useless.

I took a wounded dog to the RSPCA and they wouldn't deal with it. They said they would take it in but the dog would need to be put down and they'd charge me some $47 to take it off me!!! WTF?

Talk about animal abuse ... they're the biggest offenders! :P

lol unlucky Jarrad, thats liek the video of the baseball guy pitching the ball into a bird as it flies past infront of the batter, eg http://www.therogers5.com/Downloads/VideoClips/

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
