Well, I had lost my car license for 6 months from speeding and running red lights, no intentionally of course - though there were a few instances of such, I now am able to legally drive again.

It's been a grueling 6 months where I had to rely on others for transportation. Although transportation was generally available, finding, asking, and organising it with them, is much more hassling that it is me being the driver and just knowing where to go and to drive who.

So my advice to you? Slam your brakes on the yellow lights; those red light cameras are dodgy.

Though, it isn't all happy galore, this also means car registrations, car insurance, fuel, and more errands to do. Oh well, such is life.

Yesterday we went down to Torquay to play at the beach as a YSA event for Australia Day.

We weren't at the surf coast, probably because we'd have more room on the side beach, but we still enjoyed ourselves even with lack of waves.

And of course, me not bothered to wear sunscreen, my face is a little sunburnt, and my upper back and shoulders are sunburnt, once again.

Nonetheless, bit of BBQ, some sports, splashing around, and mucking around, it was a nice and relaxing day, even with strong winds giving us a little chill.
