Hmm Mackerel vs Herring/Kippers. Which should I get to mix in with a pasta sauce?

For me mackerel is pretty much interchangeable with tuna, maybe just a bit tastier and healthier. I'd prefer that in pasta, especially if using cheese

Is mackerel as "meaty" as tuna? I sometimes find tuna a little bit too meaty and not as soft as say cooked fish pieces.

It's along similar lines, just not as extreme in the meatiness I'd say

I might try some next week after I get paid, I’m feeling like fish for some reason but the soft flakey kind.

Car insurance set to swap over on Thursday and my Linkt toll account too. I do enjoy that I have the option to not have a stupid citylink tag installed in my car and just pay 55c extra each time I use the road for a "video matching fee", considering how infrequently I use toll roads.

The only other car related thing to optionally do is look into dashcams. I promised myself a while ago that if I bought a new car I'd get dashcams installed but I wouldn't bother on my existing car. Time to try and wade through the sites which are clearly paid to promote specific dashcam brands to find what's actually worth the money!

Eastlink is worth looking at if you are an infrequent toll user. Free tags, however they have a $16 minimum balance / $40 minimum top up requirement.
