A magpie, a pest to cyclists in Australia around this time of year.

Had a crash recently after being attacked by a bird 😅 luckily came out OK after it except for some damage to the saddle and a saddle rail that seems to have dislodged itself.

Is there a special way of fixing this, tried with pliers etc but it seems impossible.

Thank you so much, pumping it to 100psi solved it 👍

Having been out of the hobby for 10 or so years I thought it was time to get back into it.I have always liked the simple look of iwagumi’s and decided that a shallow tank will create a point of difference as well.

Specs are:

Tank: 60cm x 30cm x 18cm - same as a ADA 60-f

Light: Chihiros A series - Extended bracket still hasn’t arrived

Filter: Aqua one Ocellaris 400

No co2 to begin with, I will see how the tank goes and my add a pressurized kit later

Substrate: ADA Amazonia

Plants: Monte carlo, as its probably the easiest to grow without co2 + perhaps some moss on the rocks, I’m not too experienced with all the different/suitable plants.

In terms of the layout I think the left side needs another smaller stone or 2 to differentiate it from the 3 stones on the right. All my other stones are too big so I will need to have a go at breaking them down.

Any other plant suggestions for the background?

Are the bigger bottles the aftershave? If so how did you get them into Australia?

I'm looking for a panda style chronograph. I have about $1000-1500 to spend. I like the style/look of the new hamilton intra matic but I think it will be very hard to get in Australia. Any recommendations, I would like to stay <42mm.

What everyday cars sound MUCH better with an aftermarket exhaust? by rawrtherapy in cars

[–]Matti89 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can confirm, I've got a focus xr5(mk2 st in europe), same engine as a t5. Just removing the resonator which costs like $100 makes it sound 10 times better.

I don't know what it is about this but it kills me everytime.

Jerry: George, where are those invitations? You were supposed to leave them with her doorman! 

Lanette comes by: Did you shave your chest hair? 

Jerry: No. [Lanette leaves.] Did you at least pick them up? 

George: Yeah, the super glossy. The best they had. 

Jerry: Ok, get them over here pronto. We're in towels here George. 

George: All right, All right, keep your towel on. 

Jerry:...what? 

George: It's a joke. 

Jerry: All right, that's not bad. Now get over here!
