Saw a torrent for Australia's Dangerous Shark Coast (WA) from Nat Geo channel, thought it might be a good watch.

Not long into it it becomes obvious it has a pro-shark cull bias, coupled with multiple interviews with Barnett. To be fair though they gave one guy 10 seconds to say how important they are to the ecosystem & culling isn't the answer. The rest of the show was all doom & gloom 'need to kill them' feel.

Gotta love using the media to push a political agenda.

That's sucks. Can empathise having been through it.

Driving home, some little fuck with a slingshot taken a potshot at my car then bolting. Leaving a nice little dent just above the back door handle.

Useless fucks! I had some kids throw half a brick out in front of my car yesterday. These kids are also responsible for a fire near my girlfriends house a few weeks back.

Dropped my car into subaru (first mistake) this morning for a service and look over.

Service being $300 with an upper engine clean. Sounds fair. Then get a call 2 hours later saying they had the service wrong and its actually due for a big service. Ok, figured that was coming soon enough. How much? $1100. What are they doing for that outside of a normal service?

Air filter change
Rear diff oil
Gear box oil
Spark plugs

What. Seriously? $1,100 for that? That is stuff I used to do on a Saturday morning in the garage with the bugeye, and I think I'll be doing that again. At least this way I will also know what oils are going into my car etc, I just won't have a warranty anymore. Might explore other workshops now too, Subaru are just conveniently close to work.

There's also a noise coming from the RH/S when I turn sharply which I am pretty sure is a CV joint going bad but they claim there is no issue there at all, despite the noise. I guess warranty items are ignored like that?

Maybe what they're quoting me is a standard price around the place, but $800 extra to change over those few things sounds like a lot to me.
