  1. Most complete and well-maintained classic vehicle that's ever belonged to this household...
  2. You need to add something about the Valiant that was fully panelled and painted and almost complete but left on the back lawn for 10 years...
  3. For fucks sake! This is why each kid is getting a kitten when Oscar passes and you will shut your mouth and just accept it or I will divorce you! I will marry you just so I can divorce you and take half of your shit including this piece of shit and then I will take it down to the Waimak and set it on fire! This is not to be anywhere near our garage and my Honda. This is living at your mother's and you'll count yourself lucky not to be living there too!!!
  4. No I meaning the standard iPad. As you say I didn't think there was really much difference between that and the Air for what mum would be using it for.
  5. I'll try keep this brief... My mum has a 2nd gen iPad air which I'm looking to replace for her. Choices are between a 2022 5th gen iPad Air 256gb for approx $1300 or a 2021 9th gen iPad 256gb for approx $800. From what I understand the Air is slightly lighter and slightly larger screen with better display/resolution. I'm not really tech savvy so is the extra $$$ for the Air worth it? She'd be using it for mainly email, fb and messenger, photos, streaming content and some simple game apps. Other main consideration is that it's nice for her to use and not going to become outdated too soon.
  6. I looked at the kaabo but it didn't look like it's collapsible and I don't have a big wagon since upgrading from the Stagea. I was looking at the Xiaomi Mi models but there's a little gruntier Segway model that's got 10 inch wheels instead of 8.5 inch. I'm a larger lass and Bart's not race weight since switching to more of a desk job so thought it would be worth paying the extra $100-$150 for the Segway.
  7. Now that I'm back to working in the central city (Chrustchurch) 5 days a week I'm rapidly getting sick of paying Wilson's parking over $60 a week. Because of the route I take into the city I can get a free park but it's fairly far away and can't start earlier to get a closer free park due to school drop off. Also due to timing I don't have enough time to walk several blocks. I'm thinking of buying an electric scooter and using that to get from the car to the office. I've been looking at the Xiaomi Mi and Segway brands from PB Tech. I'm happy with a more basic model - top speed 20km, range 20km, 8.5 inch wheels. Bart (Runamuck) has jumped on board with this because a) it has wheels and b) he thinks he'll borrow it to get home when drinking with oldschool companions, so now he's pushing for more speed and range. Any thoughts? Recommendations? Please keep in mind I'm not keen on more power as it also means more weight and I'll be the one lifting it in and out of the car each day and carrying it through my office.
