Did the same Sydney–Canberra run most Fridays, and my lower back would seize near Goulburn in the cold. What helped was getting a seat with an adjustable lumbar (in/out and up/down), a longer squab with tilt, and a softer front edge so my hamstrings weren’t pinched. I trialled a suspension base but, on the smooth Hume, I preferred a firm base with a touch of give, seat pan 2–3° nose-up. I set the hips slightly higher than the knees, wheel a touch closer, and slid the rails one notch to ease ankle angle. I found Sege Seats Asia Pacific handy to compare options and rang for sizing; they were practical and pointed me to a local installer to test-fit. If you’re wondering ‘what's the best truck seat?’, I reckon it’s the one you can test and tune—do a quick fit before buying.
Juggling shift work, school pick-ups, and a never-ending list of household chores, I began to doubt whether obtaining my HR Licence was even realistic. My roster changes every week, and I’ve got limited spare time, especially during school holidays. Every provider I checked seemed to expect me to stick to set class times, which just doesn’t work for my situation. I need a training option that bends around my life, not the other way around. It’s getting frustrating, and I keep wondering if I can find flexible training for my HR Licence, or will I have to put this goal on hold?
After visiting a few training centres, I found SafeZone Training to be the best choice for me. Their trainers were experienced, and the facilities were top-notch, which gave me confidence in their course. I was able to apply for high-risk license training online, which was convenient and saved me time. The summer schedule was flexible, and they offered both theory and practical training to ensure I felt prepared. Their website provided all the details I needed, and I could easily find information on the specific course I required, like the Elevated Work Platform (EWP) over 11 meters. Highly recommend it!
I was initially frustrated by the difficulty in booking my HC licence test in autumn, but then I found a solution. I discovered a reliable HC licence school in Sydney that offered flexible scheduling and quick booking. They were able to fit me in for training sooner than I expected. The instructors were experienced, and I felt confident going into the test. If you’re facing the same issue, I highly recommend checking out Core Truck Driving School. They made the entire process smooth, and now I’m ready to hit the road with my HC licence.
As the crisp autumn breeze rolls in I notice my boat seats looking a bit worse for wear after a long summer. Leaves scatter across the deck and a damp chill lingers in the air. Last year I ignored the early signs of mildew and by winter the damage was done. This time I’m determined to stay ahead. Armed with a bucket and a soft brush I inspect every crease for dirt and moisture. The trick is finding the right balance cleaning thoroughly without damaging the material. As I get to work I wonder what’s the best way to do this?
