I do a bit of learner driver mentoring - ppl (without access to a car and/or licencsed driver to take them) who cant get their learner hours up can join a program via their local community centre or PCYC. Its a good scheme and as the boss said to us newbie mentors : it will improve your own driving as well.

So what gives me the goat are L plates made invisble by tinted glass. Mentioned this to one learner and her mum this morng at the local coffee shop - it was as if I had insulted both of them..

If I cant tell you're a Learner driver then I'm not likely to tolerate much of a mistake or hesitation on the road without rudely letting you know..

And as for the (NSW) habit of tucking P plates in behind the number plate, so its all but invisible...
 
WCML - Hotels need a physical card on check in and can't use your mobile wallet...i wanted to tell them i didn't have one just to see what would happen, but wasn't in the mood for bull
I told the Hilton at Rome airport that when I was checking in. They had no issue, and just moved on.
 
Also performed as Murtceps. I recall being at a recording session in around 1969.

I preferred the Indelible Murtceps! :)

Friend went to one of Spectrum's concerts, she says the Murtceps who performed first as a warm up got booed offstage, they then came back on as Spectrum..... :)


I think I have that cd somewhere.......

Yes I went first time and loved Mark Kennedy drumming.
Saw double bills of spectrum and indelible later.

Got into Ayers Rock due to Mark Kennedy as well
 
WCMO is Qantas cancelling the last flight from out of ADL to MEL on the Sunday of Gather Round (I mean, really) and force you to cut it too fine on an earlier flight, or go later on Jetstar. Allegedly with a meal voucher included but not seat selection.
Edit: looks like we do get seat selection and I can see a food voucher is included (but hopefully I will have some lounge passes by then and eat there instead). So not all bad I guess!

You are correct it was always the Indelible Murtceps. I was typing shorthand. :)
Mike's explanation was Murtcepts was concert music and Spectrum was dance music.
