    I just like driving a manual because driving an auto can get so boring to be honest. It also makes you concentrate more which I feel makes the drive go quicker

    You just have to make your own fun driving an auto.

    Just driving at the speed limit is usually entertaining enough, because everyone drives below the speed limit (probably don't realise their speedometers purposely understate their actual speed), so I just focus on analysing the traffic ahead of me to figure out the faster lane to be in and how to get past the next slow person in front of me etc. Keeps me concentrated and fully aware of everything that's going on around me, probably why I'm such a great driver :up:

    - Instragram (auto loads videos)

    - App updates (i dont wait to use wifi for this

    - Sync both private and work email, both of which I get a lot of.

    TTDIM: Driving a manual

    Should be in TTIM, manuals are annoying as fuck!

    Annoying in congested traffic, fun on country roads (especially if its a hire car)

     

     

    Driving a manual in traffic forces you to calm the fuck down. You tend not to tailgate and learn to just crawl along slowly rather than stop/start.

  4. Hedaik, let us know how the ANP is when your up there mate!

    Alpine NP was awesome, easily my favourite camping area and national park in Victoria.

    Did the Mt Howitt walk from the carpark, fairly straight forward hike but was pretty bloody cold and windy once youre exposed near the peak. You'd want to make sure you're well prepared if you're doing the crosscut saw in winter as I wouldn't want to get stuck overnight in wet clothing. The overnight huts looked pretty good though, with the best toilet in Australia near Mt Howitt where you can overlook the whole valley from the throne. Forgot to bring up my Yarraside stickers for you :(

    Also did Wellington River track with the intention of getting to lake tali khan but couldn't make it and turned back 5km short. Theres something like 16 river crossing where you need to take your boots and socks off each time so that slowed us down a bit. Ended up doing 24km in 6.5 hours or something so really needed to allow another 3 hours to get to the lake. Saw my first wild deer, scared the shit out of me at first as I thought it was a giant dog.

    Let me know when you ho hiking next.
