I use rattle gun sockets.chesper than shiny sockets and probably a bit tougher.only downside is they are thicker which very rarely caused problems

Why is it that I need to create a LISTNR account and download the LISTNR app just to listen to the online version of Triple M now?
Seriously, all I want to do is listen to the radio station on line. I don't want my listening experience improved by providing my details (such as location listening preferences, date of birth, email address, etc). This is one LISTNR they have lost due to this non-sensical change. Might have to go old school and actually put a radio on my desk. Problem is, I can't receive the signal on most portable radios ![]()

Why is it interviewed people who start with "I am speechless" or "I am lost for words" then continue to babble for minutes on end?

Why is it a human's stomach will say when it is empty but a human's brain does not do the same?

Why is it..........that this is Australian Ford Forums but the software dictates American spelling.
As you can imagine, having the little red lines under the locally correct way of spelling tyre/tyres is very annoying.

Hmm, no problems with either spelling here. Are you sure it's not your browsers dictionary?

No idea, had a look to see if it's something I can change but I'm dumb with this sort of thing.

Try right clicking next time you get 'red lined' and select Add to dictionary.

On a quick surf, it looks like the standard Windows 10 language setting options should apply. We’ll know you’re in trouble with it, if your next post is in hieroglyphics.

Why does it take Aus Post 5 business days to get a birthday card from metro Sydney to Surfers Paradise in an express envelope but the wife can order 4 apple air tag holders from Amazon at 8pm on Sunday night and they arrive 1pm Monday and a 4 pack of apple AirTags 8pm Sunday night and they arrive just after midday Tuesday.

Why is it EVERY SINGLE Nissan Tida is driven by people who are incapable of driving confidently?
See a car parked on the side of the road - brake See someone entering a roundabout a km away - brake Turn a corner - brake Turning down a new street - brake in the middle of the road and then turn A green arrow at an intersection- go really really slow so no one else will be able to follow you through. See an orange light - go as fast as you can. Meanwhile, while being so careful, they don't use their headlights, indicate as they are turning, turn from the center of the road and hold everyone else up and nearly cause a concertina rear ender.

Ha ha, I thought it best I didn't include age brackets, genders and ethnicities in my post...........I'll leave that up to the readers to join the dots.

Nissan saw a big market with the success of the ever reliable Camry, and decided to muscle in on the competition by offering a budget automobile in a smaller package.

Tonz, given your gracious apportionment of years - I am flabbergasted your MIL is still with us. Are you a cradle-snatcher?

MIL is long gone and she still haunts both of us in our dreams, as I said to my beloved the first time I met MIL, "be very grateful you have that ring on your finger otherwise I'd be out of here." Granted we met the domineering battle axe in Queensland and we were happy in South Oz.
Not a cradle snatcher, but at age 18 I promised I would get married overseas and just before I turned 30. Was reminded later I did that with a week to spare.
