OV9

Dad bought a Volvo 144 a few years before I was born it's still in the shed half a century later and still mostly running with about 800,000 Kms on the clock.

It's ugly, slow, boring, ugly, so gutless just using the AC makes it go noticeably slower and it's ugly. And boring.

And now comparatively ...

Operation Distract from the Epstein files making excellent progress.

Very very much that.

Those exhausts are idiotic.

1500 tonnes of Frigate hit by a torpedo designed to snap Cruisers and Carriers.

I remember looking at both of these in the early 2000's. Almost bought the Skyline (in gun metal grey) for £5995 but rejected it as the boot was too small for a pushchair :roll: . The Honda was £12K and would have had to have been financed as it would have been a second fun car. In the end I ...

Cool, I really enjoyed binging the Murderbot short stories, I think the later longer ones weren't as good tbh.

Fackham Hall so very stupid, but the rapid fire puns and insanity worked for me. Laughed quite a lot.

Apart from Dunk having the constitution of Wolverine it was a great watch. Will have to catch up with the books sometime.

Hmmm has an Emira ever competed at Bathurst? (Not that I know of).

I'm happy to take delivery of one on your behalf though Mik

The Yellow original Zonda is perfection.

NSFW Christopher Mies' helmet post roo.

Very nasty crash, lots went wrong with flags and comms I think but hopefully drivers ok.

It is amazingly.old school still thankfully. I'd argue the uphill section from The Cutting to McPhillamy is incredibly tight and intimidating, Ithat the racers do it at speed in the dark is truly awesome.

I heard Mies interviewed just now "Kangaroos do not smell nice inside out"

The Korean snowboarder who crashed and wasn't moving on her first qualifier run then went on to get gold was the most amazing turnaround. Bit bloody scary seeing the crash and not knowing if she was going to be OK.


The all or nothing format for the half pipe was great. The men's event earlier ...

The choice of drone drone in the sound mix is baffling.

They need a whole batch of these

I went to an interesting talk by the guys developing them a few years ago, I assume it's the same ...

AKOTSK is really trying my patience, I probably should've waited until it was done and binged the lot in a sitting. It's beautifully made and I am hopefull for an absolutely epic conclusion but there's just not enough in each episode to feel satisfying.
