    Anyone got a recommendation for Dentists who do implants in West or Central? Boyo is pretty sure at least 3 of his are end of life. This will be highly unpleasant in multiple ways.

      My old dentist in Melbourne was Brunswick Family Dentist. Had my wisdom teeth yanked there. I would go back to them if I moved back to Melbourne, even if they were a trek to get to.

    Oh hey there Yarrabyte 🤖

     

    There’s this painting I once saw and I can’t find it again. It was a landscape painting of a cliff on a shore and looked very much like the 19th century romanticism oil paintings.

    Compositionally it looked a lot like John Constable’s paintings of Weymouth bay but it wasn’t grey and overcast. It was glowing with slightly warm yellow light.

    The sky was a desaturated yellow sunset haze with clouds. The cliff rising behind was a crumbly warm orangey yellow. The incoming small wave was a light warm blue with a rill of white foam and the flattish jagged rocks were brown. There were a few smaller flat rocks towards the centre at the bottom of the cliff with a scattering of human bones including a skull or a few skulls.

    It’s driving me nuts because sometimes I think I’ll have narrowed it down to a particular setting or artist and then I find another very similar but not quite the same in a big way. I think this is an entire genre I’ve stumbled on (Romanticism is apparently big on landscapes and there might have been a British movement) so I’m looking for a needle in a haystack.

    I could also be chasing a ghost if the image drew from multiple works and was ai 💔

      Looking at pictures now

      Courbet?

      tho I don’t remember him ever painting bones. Bones are usually a memento mori

        It really did look like a Courbet and I had been looking through his but no luck so far

    Power outage in my area. WiFi not working. Some things are working and some not, so at first I thought it was a fuse. Must be a brown out then. Lucky I charged my shitty power bank.

    I think I’m going to buy a new car. I’ve had this car for about 19 years, so the process is a bit daunting.

    Any advice regarding who to have inspect it? MyCar have an inspection service for around $250, is there any problem going with them?

    I don’t think I’m up for trying to sell my current car privately, so I’ll probably trade in even though it won’t be worth much. I also have no idea how you actually pay for something that costs that much these days - last time I was in the market the standard was a bank cheque.

      I got rid of a similar aged car mid lockdown. The process of getting it inspected and de-Takata airbaged was too daunting so I just sold it to a scrapper for peanuts…

      I used a local mobile inspection service to check the car when I bought mine last year. I dunno, they’re all much of a muchness. I used ACE Mechanics.

      As for payment I used bank transfer - first for a deposit to secure the car, then the rest split it over two days due to hitting max daily limit. This was with a private seller though. No idea what dealerships do but I doubt cheques are an option even with them…

        Dealerships do bank transfers too. I bought from a dealer earlier this year. Mine was a bit weird because not in Melbourne so I did a deposit to hold it then transfered before I went to pick it up.

        I did a test drive but not an external inspection because it was basically new and had a Toyota warranty thing.

      I think car sales has an instant quote sale option for an idea of the minium value of your current car. Even with a RWC and inspection people tend to let their car wear a little before sale so if you’re buying 2nd hand consider another grand or two for a major service, eg timing belt.
