    HELP car shakes??

    hmmm weird that it also shakes in N. Now if that is the case it could be the possibility of worn engine mounts, but this would also mean you should feel heavy rocking under acceleration. Anyway check them. If it's just a rough motor, get it serviced, oil/filter/air filter otherwise try...

    Credit card surcharges

    This is just a nice way of the bank passing on the charges on to you through your supplier/store. Instead of the banks charging you direct bypassing the supplier, they charge the supplier a small percentage who then passes this onto you, often percentage of bank plus a little buffer. As a result...

    Coffee Snob...

    Going to pick up a Nuova Simonelli Oscar HX and a Compak k3t/Wega instant 5.8 grinder, anyone have experience with this combo? Also tempted to try roast my own beans using the popcorn maker method - is it worthwhile? :D

    Which Phone?

    If you can go for something like HTC Legend or Desire otherwise IPhone4. Not much else out there apart from Blackberry which I have but would now prefer either a HTC (again) or the iphone 4. HTC back in the early days were ok but i hated the windows mobile, now its a different story with android.

    Smeg oven / cooktop

    Miele for me, ovens fantastic, pricey yes, but not one issue in 8+ years so far, keeps clean - even the glass and has even heat throughout the oven so food cooks evenly. Microwaves - Panasonic, otherwise the Sharp's are good bang for buck. Other cheaper alternatives would be bosch...

    that is correct, my tutor (a prof in accounting) said to me as we were having a chat in regards to the uni and its operation, admitted herself, if there was a cutdown or ban on international students, VicUni and most others may as well shut up shop instantly! anyway back on topic ;)

    Grand Final draw

    Yes, and there was Joolia Goolia saying on t.v. that 'we want a result now'. Asif her voice isn't annoying enough! ...an extra two 5 minute halves is all that is needed for a decider i would imagine, although unlikely in this money spinning world we live in today ;)
