Little Things You Love

My nephew surprised me with a present from his recent couple of months in Japan. He remembered that as a kid I would bring him (and his sisters) all sorts of toys and stuff from Japan and other places I visited for work. I had long forgotten. His partner is Japanese and they decided to pay me back as is tradition. Blew me away to be honest.
Anyway. This is what I got, some sort of weird Toyota hybrid car, must be the next prius... ;)

They certainly enjoyed when I chucked the sprinklers on the lawn late afternoon yesterday. One of the boys was bouncing along following the path of the sprinkler getting absolutely walloped by the water. Gave him some tiny specs of cheese to eat and he came right up to me - only about 1 metre away!

Watch out for the missus.
 
Superspares under promising and over delivering. I rang them on Friday to see how long delivery would take for a replacement engine mount and got told up to 5 working days. Yesterday was a public holiday so it was actually about 1 working day.
The other thing I love is it took less than 45 minutes to swap in the new one. I thought it was going to be a nasty job but didn't even get my hands dirty or lose any skin.

If you put cheese in your ears then they will happily partake. So don't do that...they are opportunistic predators...
 
Bought a weird little bike a couple days ago, it's a kids one. Looks cool AF but have no idea what to do with it. Oh well, at least it's a lefty Cannondale, china made but who cares. How can you not love it

My parents have them very friendly, they get very loud and demanding if Mum has forgotten to make sure the bird bath has clean water in it. Apologies in the form of bread crumbs are acceptable.
