reckon ive downloaded most of that at one time or another ;)

i was busy polishing the bumpers and wheels on the chev. then washing it, armouralling the roof, tinkering with the carb settings, fitting a haircut and beard trim in there somewhere, and then driving it :)

figured mowing the lawns was more productive for the daughter than sitting and watching you tube or whatever it is she was doing...

exactly.

pity sunday wasnt quite as good, but got her out to palmer anyway for their hot rod street party. ended up with a good day out and had a bit of fun winding her out through the hills on the way home. was interesting with the bench seat :lol:

as an aside, if you are driving in the hills, and theres a 50 year old car behind you, obviously going faster than you, you are by definition in a "slow" car, and should therefore use the slow vehicle turnouts, and let those of us that are willing to get up to the speed limit do so. im looking at you black kia carnival....

Usually found in the right lane of the Southern Expressway exercising their assumed right to drive 90kms/hr in THEIR lane
My experience is that the car probably cant go faster than 90kms/hr due to the low power / weight ratio

I haven't tried a Kia Carnival but friends and I shared driving a hired Honda Odyssey up to Darwin.
I managed to top 160K passing a road train and still had some potential left.
Sure it doesn't accelerate like my hot little coupe I use for normal driving (0-100 in 6 secs).

I tried Win 11 for a few weeks via the Insider Program. Went back to 10 after an update broke nearly everything, turned out to be fixed quickly but I had had enough of a few other niggles by then.
Mostly it ran well but I particularly didn't like changes to the right click menu which seemed to add extra clicks. Copy, paste, delete etc were represented by symbols rather than text which was not intuitive to me and to get the full options as from Win 10, required a click on "More Options".
The UI throughout is similar but different, didn't like it but more than likely that is just a bit of unfamiliarity and stubbornness on my part.
I have since learned of various registry edits to return the old context menu and will go back to 11 when I get the inclination to tinker but IMHO if you are happy enough with 10, I can't think of a compelling reason to update.
