Drove all the way to Preston to fill up at the last servo still doing 169/L (forgot I gotta drive to Ballarat tomorrow). Saved $7 compared to the other joints at 189, probably worth it as it would've only been about 50c extra of petrol. Dropped off some insanely overdue library books. Worked out how to undo the key lock I had my spare keys in. Laundry done. Now time to make a brunch of spinach, scrambled eggs, smoked salmon and toast.
Next up, grab some boxes and sort out empty jars (colleague has offered to take em all) and expired/unlikely to be used food in pantry. Might use up some of the pantry stuff to take tomorrow, maybe a big batch of BBQ jackfruit. E: nope it's going to be rice and curry, so jackfruit curry it is. And toor dal with spinach.
Yeah, so good. I paid over $2/L Blergh.
Ouchhhh. I haven't had to think about petrol regularly for quite a while (work car, then rarely needing to commute for work) and forget about the bloody PH price bump... Hope where you're going to will be worth the petrol tho!
