Jeez, when you see the Southern Expressway so early in a piece like that, you know you've got real good stuff coming up...

Last month, the South Australian Legislative Council voted in favour of an amendment to drug driving legislation that would provide medicinal cannabis users with a defence if they fail a roadside drug test.

Don't ever change my love

Even better for a final. The atmosphere is so much better.

I think it's because no one is in their usual seat (as members can't sit in their normal seat for finals), and people tend to be louder for some reason when they're sitting away from their usual surrounding crew, maybe it's because they're not worried about making a fool of themselves because they won't be sitting with the same people the next week, I'm not sure, but it's fantastic.

I think you're spot on. Being in a different seat creates a certain kick - a shaking up of the routine. Also it's a final so every goal is one step closer to a premiership.

That's global warming for ya...

I think they forgot the "warming" part yesterday...

In other discussions though, **** we're so lucky for the city to be so close to some magnificent hill areas and conservation parks. Cycling up the old freeway, stunning descents, running up Mt Lofty or Morialta, Belair or Waite... Great place to live on that front.

Is Morialta harder or easier than Waterfall Gully to Mt Lofty Summit hike?

The more important question is which one provides a better backdrop for an Instagram pic

Morialta has more routes, some easier than lofty, some harder. Lofty is pretty clean underfoot nowadays.

Morialta also prettier, but around Cleland is great.

The walk around Granite Island is better. About 5km all round starting from the massive bridge in Victor Harbor. I got some awesome shots there. Shame I ain't exactly happy about my appearance physically but walking up and about around these places help that I guess...

I went to Mt Gambier a couple of weeks ago. For the first time, I are at Fasta Pasta. It was good.

Between the angled seating obstacles, trees up the middle, buskers, food carts, people walking in zig-zag formations and/or stopping dead and walking in the opposite direction and/or walking obliviously into you, along with the variable of no cover and slick slippery tiles in the rain, how f**king painful is it to walk around in Rundle Mall these days?!

Even just getting to the bugger is a pain. The city is just surrounded by annoying roadworks, there's no incentive to go in at all

and parking is a pain in the arse, we normally park in Kintore ave, but with the tram work extension, most of those parks are gone now

Yeah it's crazy! I had family over from interstate last weekend but made them stay away from the city, just way too hard! I live in Athelstone and work in Lockleys so usually have to commute through the city each day too, that's just terrible.

[PoppedCorn]

They'll always be Holdens to me just like it'll always be " Footy Park "

I feel like we are actually spoiled for parking in Adelaide. So used to street parking we get angry at any perceived lack of, when actually we have tons.

A casual paid space is like $5-7 an hour here, $25 in Sydney/Melbourne.

99% sure I saw Johnny Haysman walking down Hindley at 2am a couple of weeks ago. Dressed normally, no fanfare or anything, just cruising. Looked like he was on his way home from somewhere. Couldn't believe my eyes.

Winky Dink. I was on the Channel Niners once when I was a kid. Thankfully no tape of this survives.
