I’ve heard of budgie-smugglers but this is ridiculous.

When you go to move a bag to get yours in the space left.
Just think what could be in it.

Last year, two women were caught with more than 100 wild animals in their luggage before they boarded a plane. Officers discovered two white porcupines, two armadillos, 35 turtles, 50 lizards and 20 snakes.

Snakes on a plane is a thing...

Snakes on a plane are no big deal, drop the temp below about 16⁰C and the snakes get sluggish and sleepy. Similar to what the airline does to quiet down economy after dinner.

It‘s not the cabin air temperature, it‘s the airflow! 🤣

We go months between Street Sweeper Truck visits here in Christchurch now.

 

Our Street was swept on Friday (2 Days ago) and they have just swept it again at 9pm on a Sunday!

 

Yes - both sides from one end to the other! Bizarre!

.TK is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for the Tokelau, a territory of New Zealand. And for a while it was one of the most popular domain names in the world.

You'll never guess the most popular internet country code

 

I do since I own 2 domains with .tk (seriously) - it stays for Tinkerisk 😉

 

But today all alarm bells go off with this domain abbreviation, as they are often used dubiously.

Courier tracking.

 

Apparently my package arrived in the country on Friday morning. However, by Saturday morning that status had changed to show that it missed a flight. As of this morning, it missed another flight, which was an hour earlier than the previously-advised one!
