Default How about "What did I do Today?"

Me, I drove 736 km today in the course of my work as a mechanic (fitter over here in Australia) Once I left town, and apart from slowing down to go through Coolgardie, and Yellowdyne, I did the first 178km without slowing from the 110kph speed limit(disconnecting the cruise control) I had to slow down 5 more times (mostly road trains) before getting to Southern Cross 222 kms out.( I wrote the details on the window with a whiteboard marker)
Work provides me with a V8 diesel Land Cruiser. They are a very common work horse over here.
I have discovered the benefit of the cruise control (which I wouldn't bother with back home in N.Z.
