We got a few showers later in the evening. It is sunny here but I can see clouds that are giving you grief, passing to our north atm.

[mudski]

I'm not angry, I'm pissed off! For some reason my Win8.1 work laptop decided to download and run updates! Even though I turn this off. (Seems a few have had this had with 8.1. Low and behold Micro$oft had release a baulked update which inturn makes your pc get stuck installing the update, then when you decided to reboot it loops at a message saying "We couldn't complete the updates undoing changes". No worries, I'll just hit F9 and get into safe mode and uninstall the updates. Nope! I'll do a system restore then. Negative! It gets stuck in a loop doing that! From what I can tell, my only option is to do a full factory restore. Not what I really need on this laptop as I do all my online sales and reports on this.
Might be a busy weekend for me.

[Hodge]

That's similar to the "update loop", that happened for those who decided to download the technical preview of the Windows 10. Which was offered through the update direct from Microsoft from windows 7 and 8.
Then later on if you didn't update W10 from the preview to a full version, and you missed a certain date.... game over. Only fix is full format and restore.
I know cause it happened to me lol. Not on an important computer luckily...

Edit:

Stupid question Mark. What in the fark are you doing using W8 in the first place. That is like Vista-fail V2.0

[mudski]

Because i can put 7 on it. The drivers wont work. No point changing to 10 as i have read thats not any better than 8. Just looks a bit different.
Dont know what to do with it now. Use it as a base plate for my jack i suppose.

Not much of a problem to run wires, but there is couple of things that I have nfi where they go.
Will worry about it once I have the 2nd battery in and if need be I've re run things then.
Might have to call on the electrical minded to help out a bit.

When you say "wired to your spotlight wiring" do you mean they share a common positive connection (probably not a problem)? Or do you mean the UHF only works when the spotlights are on (probably not ideal...)?

What suburb are you in? Feel free to start a thread with any relevant photos or wire colours used. Shouldn't be too hard to figure out.

Yes both positive and negative are shared ATM.
The UHF wires are sliced into the spotties.

Do you know if the spotties are running through a relay?

If they are, then it's fine for both the spotties and UHF to share a power source.

If they're not, they should be regardless of the UHF wiring).

Sorry to hear your bad luck. Years ago I backed my non Nissan 4x4 into my garage with the flap type rear door open. Took out the garage light and the glass in the door. Also blew all the house fuses and nearly caused an electrical fire. Long fight between the house insurance co and the car insurance co to decide who would pay for what. In the meantime I had to foot the repair bill.

So took the front guard off. havnt bent a hinge or pillar. Realigned the door which was pretty easy. now the bloody door lock wont unlock and the missus is pissed because the drivers door wont open and im outa beer

You might need to put the handle of a 10" shifter in the hinge and tweak it back in position.
Ive done this on my other 4x4 after the wind rips the door out of your hands and it over opens

On going saga that was... Anyhow, since then I cant access the business emails as they had changed the name server to redirect via them. So I got crazy domains to change it back, still no emails, I go into my account and theres no sign of the email mark@northern4x4parts.com.au being listed. WTF! I ring Crazy Domains for the forth time since Friday, they said they have to look into it and they will ring me back in an hour. That was four hours ago! So I ring them again, this time the phone rings, for about five times then just hangs up!
Bloody hell! I'm going to just give up for today and drink beer instead.

Only trivial, I know, but I went for a drive out to Mt Richmond National Park. The road that leads from the Airport to the mountain has been "upgraded". The grade of limestone is chunky as, and has turn what was once a pleasurable to drive into a bone-jarring prick. On top of that, the tracks I used to do easily are now over grown as all buggery.
I don't mind a bit of pin striping, but I now have small dings in most panels. I gotta let someone in the CFA, about the state of the tracks.

Yeah thats a weird one, but one pronounciation that is getting more and more prevalent in this country is the word route pronounced as "rowte" not "root" as it always has been, just because it might sound rude. C'MON!! I dont hear people talking about tree "rowtes"! Bloody nongas killing me here.

TD yep i spent time as a kid in Tongala where the Nestle factory (always called "Nessels" to the locals) was the main claim to fame. Haha yep is a small town (we also won the Goulburn Valley Football League grand final in 1981!!), but which splat-head came up with ness-lay?? If that's how its pronounced in whatever European country its from then good on em but it was always "Nessles" in Australian accent. Not now though unfortunately.

Pretty much thats why I was angry lol. It poured blood like no tomorrow.

Mate tell me about it... on my right hand I have had over 27 stitches from all sorts of dumb shit and about 12 in the left hand... touch wood it has been a long time since my last stitch..

I was getting sick of it always seeming to do a decent job on myself and it was not the pain (although that did suck) but the inconvenience of it all that pissed me off.

My best effort was an artery and a nerve in the palm of my hand from a fight and was rushed into emergency surgery.. that was about 6 months all up... blah.

Over it!!

This is after the docs. No stitches was a good clean cut that do far I have managed to keep closed.
Wtf. You said cut... not hit by a safety pin...

Ordered my gauge last week and they sent me a quick release steering wheel adaptor instead. Got on go them straight away and they emailed me a return slip to put on the parcel and send it back. Did that straight away and now have to wait for them to get my gauge back from the buyer who wanted the adapter and then they will send it to me.

Worst part is by the time I get it I'll be back at work, after bring off since Christmas. Left it for the last week on purpose, no wife or kids at home.

Oh well, something to do on a day off.

Lol. I remember doing the same last year to two buyers. A big brain fart moment. anyway it turned out to be quite funny, one item was $160, the other $70. The buyer of the $70 got the $160 and vice versa. The $70 buyer knew what he got and still in good faith told me of the mess up and was all good about it. Sent it back and I expressed him the right part. The other guy, who paid $160 and only got the $70 item, didn't say boo. Weird. His was express too and I hadn't heard from them for over a week.
So I contact him, he replies he never got the item. SO I contact Aus Post, he's signed for it. AP send me a copy of the signature, it looks like the guys name, the buyer says it wasn't him. I said o.k you now need to go to the police station and sign a stat dec and email to me so a police investigation can start. I called his bluff...
Never heard from him since. Then, three month later the same guy orders the exact same parts from me and pays $160 again! I sent him a note in the parcel asking him to send back the incorrect parts from three months ago and I'll give him a refund. Still nothing.
I had to laugh about it. I messed up, I tried to resolve the issue. The buyer thought he'd be smart and get a freebie, it didn't work and he ended up paying twice.

The amount of times people try things on me is amazing.
A person bought a heater fan resistor from me. Then sent me a message saying its failed after two days and he wants warranty without posting the old one back. He said he doesn't have too. Haha! He also mistakenly said, this is the second one thats failed in a month. I said well there is obviously an issue somewhere else causing this and you will need to get this sorted by an auto elec. And for him to post the dud one back. He finally did, but sent me his original one, and it was covered in dust and the factory build date stamped on the unit was out of line with all my other resistors.
I told him this, showed him a photo of his dud one covered in dust and said there is no way this resistor can get this amount of dust on it just from two days of use, plus the stamped numbers. I said to post the one I sent back and I will refund you. Guess what happened? No response.
I even now mark some items with a pen so you can only see it under a black light. Just to cover myself.

That's my concern. That the other buyer will keep it. If they still haven't got it, I'll ask for a refund and get it elsewhere.

I have sent them another message and will follow up with a call if if I can find their number.


Have also sent back my UHF radio some sort of power issue still under warranty so we'll see what happens with that one.

And now the hospital wants to charge us an extra $800 for my son's op that he had 2 weeks ago.

Just got off the phone and the seller has already refunded my money.

The other guy is being a dick about it. Some young guy that takes photos of cars drifting and doesn't have a printer....
I'll sent it back at my easiest opportunity, as I work 12 hours. He told the seller.

Boo woo. I do 12 hour nights with 2 kids.

Anyway I have a look tonight where else I can get one.

Apparently that type maybe discontinued.

Had a windscreen replaced by National first time they brought the wrong one ,then they didnt arrive so the Boss said he'd do it
and because he has a 4x4 will take extra care , dented the bonnet rubber not fitted correctly in the corners,
FWIW make sure they remove the winscreen to re seat it and not just cut the seal,and may sure all mouldings are replaced with the corner pieces

I was driving on an on ramp to get into a freeway steadily building up speed, got along side of a BA wagon and he decides that a 4wd isn't going to pass him, so he pushes a little, so do I. The ramp is a long bend and as soon as you straighten up there are a couple of big ditches that make any car unstable. I glanced at my speedo 120 the other driver had no intention of backing off. Knowing the road ahead I did.

Worst part is the driver wasn't a young guy, would've had to be in his mid-last 50s.

Oh well it had to happen my laptop is no more, however I brought a cheapy
last year as I only need ebay, google lol. The new one only has bluetooth
and I think SD card will have to suss it out.
Now all my Photos are stuck in the old computer, any ideas how to get them out
will be great

[gubigfish]

if the hard drive is still good you take it out of the laptop and buy an adapter USB to IDE/SATA and plug it into the replacement computer, just like a thumb drive.

Remove the hard drive and get a 2.5inch hard drive adaptor so you can plug it in to a desktop zo you can access everything on the hard.
Lessen learned. Also spend a few dollars and get some cloud storage so you just store all your photos and files in the "cloud". Or atleast buy a portable hard drive and store everything on this.

Idiot Drivers - took the car for a leisurely spin through the local forest, had a couple of grand-kids on board.
On a sweeping right hand bend I see a black ute coming down the hill about 300 meters away all over the road practicing his drifting.
The closer he gets the more I slow and move off the road, he doesn't react to me at all. About 50 meters away I'm yelling at the kids to get ready for a crash as this guy is completely sideways and drifting towards me.
At the last minute he sees me and I could see the look of panic on his face, I'm sure it was more good luck than good driving but he missed me I'm still not sure how.

Bad enough to find all the crap dumped in the forest but to have to put up with morons who endanger their own and others lives is just not on.
Could have posted in the happy thread I suppose, anyway no one harmed but the kids did hear some language they haven't heard (from me anyway) before.

Mate's son had a head on on the main mountain rd up Tallarook, some
clown speeding cut the corner, son only just borrowed his Dad's 4x4 too.
So now its headlights on and be wary at corners.

Oh and drifting is not a sport, lol

[mudnut]

So close a shave, you could've bought the company. Glad to hear you're ok. Incidents like that make you realise how fragile life is.

Drifting is a race track sport. Great fun on a track.

Really ,,,,,drifting I rate it along synchronised swimming and burn outs at the Summer Nats.
But each to there own.
as a few posts back not all use the track and endanger other road users,
Ive even seen iced up idiots doing it around my area, but i wont be paying to see it

Waiting........................................... .................................................. ...............

[Bloodyaussie]

Yeah it bores the crap out of me...... as you said John up there with synchronised swimming.

I dont get burn outs either???

I think I would have turned around and caught up with the idiot and put his head through his own windscreen.... bloody idiots.. do your racing on the track.

[threedogs]

Thank you watched the Summer Nats on TV yesterday guy does his thing in the burn out pit
back of his pride and joy catches fire, apparently you dont get points for spitting 6ft flames out the
back, it needs to be smoke, but it made me laugh and thats rare these days lol

[4bye4]

Try this one John.

I'm not condoning people doing stupid sh!t in cars when it can endanger anyone else. BUT in a controlled environment, such as a race track, go for gold.

You would be surprised how fun it actually is. Can't really stand watching drifting on tv, but being in the car is a blast.

There are many sports I don't find interesting that I won't pay to see. Pretty much anything on fox sports really.

Fly out of work on time then land at meekatharra for fuel now the f@$king plane has broke down and we are waiting for a new plane from perth. F@$king skippers aviation.

Look on the bright side, at least it broke down on the ground! Hope you get home soon mate.
For sure mate it could be worse. Planes breaking down is a regular occurrence with skippers usually on the way to work but.
4 hour wait for another plane[emoji35] would be happy if they had beer here.
