Someone nearby is having a party with loudish doof music. It’s 11pm on a Saturday. What are they thinking, to have fun or something? What about all us grumpy old people who are in bed already.

Oh no, I am sunburnt!! I put on plenty of sunscreen before we went out, gave it plenty of time to soak in, but we were out on the water for about 2 hours. Oddly, my face is not sunburnt, but I used a different sunscreen (Aus Cancer Council on my body, Japanese Aqua on my face). Still had a blast and I've managed to avoid the burn all season.

I finally plugged in the secondhand tv. No signal. Guess I need to buy a coaxial cable…

I see them at Bunnings for like $8 and I think I have the appropriate outlet in my wall but is there any particular kind to choose? Was looking at this in 3 or 5 metres https://www.bunnings.com.au/click-5m-coaxial-pal-tv-cable_p0201534

Ps. Sorry if this sounds dumb. I’m not big on tv and for many years didn’t even bother to have one. I just got a very cheap secondhand one to watch dvds.

Check if the centre posts are male or female.
