Car

Was talking to my friend the other day, and he was telling me a second hand off-peak car, with 5yrs left, cost around $25k, which seems a pretty good deal.

So we did some maths, that's $5k/yr, or $800/month. After adding fuel, insurance, road tax, season parking.. it goes up to at least $1.3k-$1.5k/month, barring any unforeseen incidents.

That's an additional $1k/month of transport cost.. the equivalent of a Europe holiday every 3 months. Seems like there's no way I'm getting a car anytime soon.

30

And the conversation was revolving around age, a colleague was celebrating his 27th bday.

One commented that, after 30, time will pass very fast.

And I went, "At least I did the thing I always wanted to do before I reach 30!"

About Time

Had the opportunity to watch this today. 
Really nice show, that have a different take on time travelling, and some thought-provoking moments. 
Like going through every day a second time. 
It's not a dramatic show, the movie actually paced along quite steadily. But it's a perfect movie to watch on a Sunday afternoon.
