she has you trained 🤭💗

It's an arresting sound for sure, especially out the front of your house. It happened years ago out front of a place I lived in a real quiet side street. Basically a situation where one car has to pull over and let the other car through because there wasn't enough room and neither car did, so they had a really slow head-on collision. Myself and neighbours went out front to scratch our heads and ponder the 2 sheepish and embarrassed drivers!

Thou shalt visit at least one christmas market. This is obligatory! And share some photos with us. We have much to learn about christmas markets done properly.

So envious! Enjoy! ✨

Get well soon! 💊🧊

There's a Cheesus Christ joke somewhere here I can smell it. Maybe that's just the cheese.

nun reading the nun rules "no sex, no booze, no blasphemy, etc and so on" looks up at a room full of anxious nuns "nothing about cheese"
many cheers.

Communion with a twist.

Ooh, hoity toity. Same postcode but the far less glamorous side over here...

That said, I've always preferred the cheese selection at Toscanos. (Get some nice markdowns from time to time) I'd do cheese there and crackers at Leo's.

And maybe if they bought some Jarlsberg or Emmental it might be less unholy. Gouda bless them.

Game changer if they invest in it. There is such a market for GOOD fast food in this country. I saw a line for KFC drive through the other day and almost died of shock. Who queues for food that crappy?!

Oh man! Japanese quality 7-Eleven would be incredible!

omg yes

I TOTALLY get it.

I owned a nice little manual hot hatch from new, had it for 15 years and loved it. Drove it to far north Queensland, many trips to Sydney and Brisbane, blasts across the Great Alpine Rd and the Great Ocean Rd. We had many adventures together and it was there through all my ups and downs in life.

Traded it in 2017 for a family-friendly kid-safe second car, which is superior in every way (well apart from the fact it's auto, but even that's a plus the way my commute is these days).

However I'd be lying if I didn't say I miss the hell out of my old car, and wish I could have afforded to hang onto it as a fun weekender and eventual project.

Hugs mate. I bought my Corolla brand new in 2006 and joked that it'll become a family heirloom some day that I can pass on. The reality is my daughter has her learner's now and it's still going strong. She may get to own it soon.

I kind-of get it. I'm not a car person, but I felt a twinge when I sold my old Pulsar. It was a fantastic car, and the main reason I sold it was because I bought it for a different stage in my life (when I was single). With the four of us, it was simply too small.

So I now have an Outlander. I'll have a similar twinge when I sell it, too. It has already taken us on adventures. Plus, mum rode in it - no future car will have that. I'm not looking forward to whatever makes us get rid of it.

I guess my point is it's a bit sad to say goodbye, but you'll always make new adventures!

I felt this way even with my first very own car which I only had for 3 years. I legit teared up on my last drive back from the mechanic. After spending most of my adult life without a licence let alone a car, I went through so much in such a short time with that car, especaially through big life changes: lockdowns, moving to my own rental, changes in friends...

Felt like I was saying goodbye to a part of me. Nothing particularly special about that car but still...

Calls a fourth time, just in case you didn't notice the first three

Yes m'lord.

Question: why is there a time limit to complete the task?

Do you ever find Sara Moon prints? I think they're creepy.

The corner as well. That looks like some serious hard work went into damaging it. Friction AND impact.
Call me a nasty suspicious bitch, but check to see if the fridge is damaged too where it can't be seen. Particularly if it's recessed into a niche.
Make him pay for a replacement as I don't think that finish can be repaired without it being horribly obvious. Also rust issues if not repaired.

Dropped a pot?? It looks like he took to it with an angle grinder! Maybe thinking he can make it chrome instead of black? This dude needs to go. What a liability.

That is a piece of shit move. Either you leave or they do, get off the lease from that person as you're liable for the damages as well.

…how

an axe?

What the actual…

That is the biggest load I’ve heard from looking at the stove. I imagine whatever was cooking if he’d dropped the pot would have been EVERYWHERE and likely a bit more than just a burnt hand.

You do need to be careful with them as they can cause damage. I have one and when I was using it regularly I found the lowest setting to be sufficient.

Dental people I’ve spoken to are relatively meh about them.

Utmost sympathies Re stench. Ours is mostly gone after 2 months…

If the shower head is one of those massage ones be careful because they can slice nipples clean off.

Treasure Island wants their money back

TIL my old man had a scraptoft lol.

Just had the same experience, super surprised as I'm in Northcote and have never heard a concert all the way from the city before!

Do it, they put on great shows,

I was there. Fantastic concert as always. And I'm going again Wednesday!

I think I need a Mondayitis cure today. A tall stack of pancakes smothered with honey, piled with cream, and with a farm-fresh cherry on top please. Also a triple-strength iced coffee, made with cream and icecream, with vanilla, caramel and hazelnut syrups.

A hearty breakfast fit for a numbat please. With some coffee as I'm not a numbat and I do need to drink.

Spicy cheesy rice and egg please

pay them with the inheritance you have been selected for

From family experience I can attest that the actual, real ones are a PITA as well. Despite showing them proof from the bank and police of the account being hacked...

I would get some pictures depicting landscapes and nature, these can be an escape to look at and it's good to have pics of nature for your health. And then some pictures of what interests you and what you like.

First, measure the space where you want to put the art. This could be one big pic or several small pics. Your choice. Make purchase(s) as per your preferences and the space available. Given the huge white space in the photo - my preference would be for 3 smaller pieces, but you do you. Maybe one medium size and two smaller ones. This is def your choice and preference. If the sun shines directly on that wall, don't buy prints as the reds will fade fairly quickly.

There are art shops like the Picture Gallery. Also markets like Ceres/Fairfield often have booths for local artists to sell their creations. Also the Saturday Rose St art market in Fitzroy. With xmas coming up, every artist in Melb is looking to downsize their stash of finished works at a profit. Check out opshops like the Brotherhood or Vinnies for cheaper options. Some surprising gems can turn up there. This can be a fun thing to do on a weekend.

You will also need :

1. The actual piece(s) of art.
2. A way to attach/hang the art. Do you want this (or is it required) to be removable when you move out? I think the rules have changed recently for rental properties, and you no longer have to erase any signs that you've hung a picture. So you can consider nailing a picture hook(s) to the wall, and are not limited to those removable stickytape backed hooks that fall off if the temperature goes over 30. Be aware that using double sided tape can remove paint from the drywall, which will need to be rectified when leaving. Attachment/hanging will depend a bit on how heavy/large the piece is - Bunnings DIY online may help.
3. A piece of news/brown/wrapping paper (cheap xmas paper is everywhere rn) cut to the size of each art piece. Some painters tape or masking tape cut into small sections.
4. A tape measure of some sort and a pencil.

Position cutout(s) on the wall using the painters tape until you get an arrangement you like. Use pencil to mark where the corners should be, and the top of the item. Use the tape measure to find out how far down from the top mark you'll need to put the attachment point. Fix that to the wall. Hang art. Check the corners line up with pencil marks then erase the pencil marks with a small piece of fresh bread or a regular eraser. Job done.

There can be of course a fair bit more to it than this summary - consult youtube for one zillion how to do it videos. Some of them are even accurate.

You need colour. Something bright and vibrant. A pot plant might help too if you get enough light. hang some white Christmas lights behind the bed head too for some softer light when required.

Not tried the carbonara but the plain chicken hot actually is. For a nice change.

Firey. Very, very firey. And I didn't even put in all of the chilli oil.

This whole range is delicious. Also very spicy. Try them all and see what you like!

ta da, did it, took about 2.5 hrs

You could get a cheap poster, blu tack it up temporarily to decide how you like the size and placement. Then adjust the art purchase accordingly
