Little things I like

I'm yet to reach 25,000kms with my mk3 Focus RS.

That's about 2,500kms a year.

Our EQA EV is due for first service after 12 months with 4641Kms. Saved a lot on fuel as well as electricity!

My recently sold 9.5 year old i30 with ~34k on the clock went to the first person who looked at it @Cossie and @TheRealTMA
Teen grandson reneged on the deal, wasn't fancy enough - bought a 10 year old Audi instead

Over the years I have had a good run with the trusty old Ford Laser wagons aka Mazda 323. Got past 350k with the 1988 model, and 400k with the 1997 model before I sold them. I was doing at least 20,000 kms per year. But in recent years,especially with Covid and working-from-home becoming the norm, I'm lucky to get past 8k per year. My 2002 BMW 530i has just ticked over 304k, although I'll be retiring it soon as a few age related quirks are starting to pop up, which can equal big $s.

My partners son still has his first car which is 2002 Mazda 323 manual. with around 360k. Funny thing is we have 3-4 cars made in 2002 must have been a good year as all but one is still going.

13B stays where they are.

How wonderful it must be to proceed through life so oblivious to anyone else around you.

To be fair some people just are wired differently. In such a way they think that they must stay in the seat allocated to them. And it might not occur to them that they could or even should shift. For example someone who is on the spectrum.

And some airlines like JQ advise you must remain in allocated seat for the duration of the flight unless a move approved by cabin crew.

Yes, but this was not! This was a business person, in a suit, reading a book.

As an aside… I would move over one seat in a block of two or three even if advised to remain in my allocated seat. I wouldn’t move to a separate block or different row.
