On the road to Barhaven from Nepean there was a black hole. However no one - except me - seemed to notice it. People would drive their cars down the road right into the black hole.
Seriously.

In the Windows folder are the uninstallers for all the installed updates. They're hidden but by going into Folder Options you can have them shown. You can safely delete all the ones starting with $KB. Doing that could free about several hundred megs.
