Carsales sucks **** now. It is worse to use and now when I open multiple tabs it says I'm blocked. How on earth can I possibly click fast enough to be a DOS or DDOS threat?

More often than not it was mum with a (in Qld) port strap. In most other places it was probably called suitcase strap.

Seeing the famous SS United States coming to the end of its life.
Been following the story of it over the last couple of sad years weighting up whether to restore or not in Philadelphia.

Still holds the Atlantic Blue Riband record for the fastest crossing.
She will be sunk off the waters of Florida.

Ordered a compression tester from Amazon, my thinking was the number of times I'd use it, over investing seemed pointless. Opened the box, hooked it up and.................nothing. Checked the connection, checked against another engine................nothing. Back it goes!



Meanwhile, what do I buy?

That’s pretty unusual. Is the relief valve stuck open? Can you get any gauge movement by poking your air blower nozzle directly into the gauge base and “sealing” with your fingers closed around it?

Have bought quite a lot of limited-use tooling from “Professionaltools2013” on Fleabay.

Despite it being advertised as being suitable for small engines, turns out its not.............................so I bought the wrong one. It's still going back though, its advertised incorrectly.

I've been watching the trip on BookFace, its sad to see a once proud ship be forgotten & gone so fast.

Quite a majestic looking boat. Resonance of melancholy in the name, respective to the top-down degeneracy blighting that country, too.
