and i would drive 600 k's

Well I picked up the car on Friday evening after work. As of this evening, I've done about 600 kilometres of driving, stretching from as south as Northern NSW and as north as Redcliffe. Absolutely love it. The new car smell kinda messes with my head a bit, still getting used to it. I think I've figured out most of the dials and buttons. Well the important ones anyway.

After my last car, its just so good to drive. It packs more oomph, runs so smoothly, and is so comfy. Then there's the cruise control, which I had on my first car but not on the last one. 6 stacker CD means that I don't have to constantly flick between radio stations to find a decent song. I could go on and on, but I won't. What's annoying is how easily it gets dirty, especially when it rains (ie like this whole damn weekend...). Something tells me I should take care of this car better than the last, which I pretty much never washed or cleaned.

Also went to see Millencolin play at the Tivoli last night. That totally went off. Everyone was singing and jumping along. They're the best bunch of Swedes ever. Male ones anyway... Its always nice to see a band that's touring for their new album not just play the songs from that album - they played mostly stuff from their last three albums before the latest one, which was great, as well as a few of the newies (which I didn't know, as I hadn't bought the new album, but still enjoyed despite not being able to sing along) and the odd really old one (Bullion was awesome).
