Yesterday at Cardiania Dam, a heap of us were talking about Bush Mechanics (as anyone with an e-series knows all about dodgy repair jobs). Well what's the odds that I open today's TV guide and see at 6.00pm on ABC, Bush Mechanics, season return! I might miss it because I finish uni at 6.00 and my TV reception for ABC at home isn't that great (don't know why ABC is the only problem channel) but I thought you might like to know.

Yesterday, the whole bush mechanics talk started when we found that John (EFFalcon) carries a whole jar of cable ties in his boot for use on his car!

What luck! I got out of my lab early so I was home by 6.00, and the reception for ABC was actually quite good today so I watched the whole show! It's a repeat but it's still a great show! Now I know what to do if a crossmember falls out! LOL.

And that poor XF! It was pretty funny when they were driving around without a windscreen, and had tons of leaves and rubbish flying in.
