Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

    Thinking about it, I haven’t had to change a headlight bulb in years either. The only time I can remember doing it was at least 10+ years ago.

    The one time I stopped at a mechanic to get it done on the way home, they basically did it for $15 and it took literally 5 minutes in the parking lot.

      Some cars are really easy to change bulbs. Some are not.

      I had one where the left was a 5 min job but changing the right one involved removing the windscreen washing fluid tank.

      Another was fine unless you needed to change the lower bulb and then you had to go in via the wheel well, disassembling things along the way.

      I’m actually pretty happy I haven’t had to change a bulb on years 😅
