P plate Golf R gave the toot of acknowledgement after dropping behind in a rolling - is this the first non D-bag Golf owner in the history of the world?
 
 
You don't count, Hamish


Technically it's my wife's car...

God I hate the f**king thing

How long before a flight do they close check-in?
Running a bit late, had to check in via service desk, hear a call over loudspeaker for flight to melb, push through security and get to gate 5mins before the gate even opens....

45min before departure time usually.

It's the worst feeling, missed a flight once with work a while ago because I didn't check in even though I got to the airport before it had left, they gave my seat up I think from memory. Was all good in the end had a flexi ticket just got on the next one, still annoying af though 

I got to Melbourne Airport and arrived at the Check In desk 15 minutes before Check In closed for a flight to Brisbane, they told me that I may not have a seat on that flight and started calling over managers and stuff to get it sorted out.

This was for a Full Fee Business Class flight (~$800) because I had to use up a bunch of flight cancellation credit that month.

Blew my mind that they'd overbook Business Class seats. FYI, Business Class on a Domestic flight is a bloody joke :P

Used to have the dirtiest bastard of a driver when I traveled a lot for work, would make the trip to and from the airport entertaining with all his Thailand stories. The dude has a wife and 2 kids as well :\ must be one of those 'open' relationships.

Get a f**kin rip-start in thailand m8

Ended up waiting inside the plane for 20mins anyway because they couldnt locate a pilot.

he probably had explosive diarrhea 

he probably had explosive

S7 Samsung you mean?
On the flight there they said just turn off your S7 and don't charge, flight home is notify staff immediately if you know someone who has thought about owning an S7.
Bloody fear mongering is what it is.

Missed boarding for a tiger flight by 10 minutes. I had got there 45 minutes before boarding, but the flight had changed to 10 minutes earlier
than the original time.They had emailed me about the change the day before, but I didn't check my email. They wouldn't let me on the flight or refund me so I spent $400 on a qantas flight that day as I needed to get back to Perth for work. Would never use tiger again.

I was annoyed that they called boarding for a flight,

So I had to put down my Taittinger and wander up to the gate.

Surprise surprise they were not open yet.

 

Lucky there was another lounge near the gate (unfortunately business only) so I was able to relax have a drink, then jump the priority queue and be one of the first on the plane anyhow.

 

airports suck eh..

 

On a side note this is the first time I have had a hotel room with it's own sunroom overlooking the pool.

Should be nice to relax in the evening.

 

ever tried to fit your bag into the overhead locker onto a morning qantas flight.

I'm generally in the exit row so it has to go up, easier to be on first and get it sorted.

 

Or if a premium cabin, nice to get on, enjoy your hot towel and glass of bubbly as you settle in.

i never want to be the front of the queue at the gate... why would I want to be on the plane? the less time spent there, the better.

Only reason I can see is that you won't be stuck standing in the isle for 15 minutes waiting, trying to make your way down towards your seat and stow baggage.

Get on last, and good luck finding space for your 5 pairs of loafers in the overhead... You'll have to put them 5 seats down, and you just know that bogan bloke is going to scuff your sh%t up when he removes his boogie board bag.

why is it the last person on the plane also has the largest bag.

 

then stops and stares around in stupidity going what do I do now.

 

Nearly as bad as being in the FreqFlyer lane for security and they still have to rummage to the bottom of their bag for a laptop.

Haha cause clearly if this individual followed rules he would be on time with a suitably sized bag.

    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
