Wrote in the text that I almost got today wrong again, while still getting it wrong.
Napped the day away and now I have a headache and regrets.
Napped a solid 3 hours this arvo as well, not looking forward to how I might fall asleep tonight…
So I’ll be staying home tonight due to stomach issues. Will have to save my 10 years sober celebration till next week.
Much achieved today. At peace with the idea of doing absolutely nothing tonight
4:30 on a sat arvo you bastard
fuuuuuuu
That looks fun :(
What happened 😬
When they changed the houses galvanised pipe over to copper someone thought keeping the galvanised riser for the front garden tap was a grand idea. Galvanic corrosion
Bit of a warning sign that the previous administration might have cheapskated out of other plumbing problems.
:(
Watermelon jelly setting in the fridge with a generous amount of gelatin to harden it up.
Will be ready for the hotter days coming up.
I finally plugged in the secondhand tv. No signal. Guess I need to buy a coaxial cable…
I see them at Bunnings for like $8 and I think I have the appropriate outlet in my wall but is there any particular kind to choose? Was looking at this in 3 or 5 metres https://www.bunnings.com.au/click-5m-coaxial-pal-tv-cable_p0201534
Ps. Sorry if this sounds dumb. I’m not big on tv and for many years didn’t even bother to have one. I just got a very cheap secondhand one to watch dvds.
Check if the centre posts are male or female.
This!
I’m no expert but they both look to be female
This is a female plug.
The male one has a solid centre pin. If you’ve got two female (in the TV and wall) you’ll want a male2male lead to join them.
The Aristocrats are playing tonight, I only found out this week. I’d really like to go so let’s hope the boys go down easily enough
Saw a guy that looked like Brendan Fraser Columbian drug lord , moustache and all
That’s hot!
Actually having pretty good luck selling stuff on marketplace.
I’ve got something up. Please lend me some of your luck.
I put a couple more things up and I’ve got some chump offering 60% but they’ll come tomorrow with cash. Sure buddy, sure. I don’t negotiate either, I just say no.
I managed to sell some boots on depop recently without too much hassle. Maybe the market is picking up
It certainly seems a bit better lately. I’ve sold a few things recently, and there seemed to be a lot less of the useless inquiries to wade through.
I did have one guy say he would be driving from Melton and I’d need to give him a discount for the travel time… On a $50 item.
Some people are very out of touch with reality. Quite a few also don’t seem to understand that they are dealing with individual people and that it works differently than buying from a store. It makes for some very odd interactions.
no one gets a discount when they travel to a shop
this guy is just trying some bs
But annoying customers often do get discounts for stupid reasons. Shops deal with a lot of volume and losing a bit of markup to get rid of a PITA can make sense, and they are often run by management with a “customer is always right” attitude. But for an individual the dynamic is very different, being a pain to deal with is more likely to get you blocked.
My brain hurts, been sleeping so much. Gotta be up early to get the bus to the train station to go up to my Uncle’s tomorrow. Dad would have picked me up, except the Sydney Rd Street Party is tomorrow so fuck that noise lol!
If I had the money to waste, I’d stay home and attend the party instead. But the lure of free smoker meat and seeing my Uncle’s Swiss Shepherd is too great.
ah, so young you don’t know the origin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nhPnCHBiEs
Oi! I LOVE Monty Python tyvm! 😂 I even have Monty Python Fliegender Zirkus lol!
I’m going to the street party early (before the party, really) because the Minipeelers love the feeling of walking down the middle of Sydney road unimpeded!
Cleaning, cleaning, cleaning
Took the paddleboards for their first spin this morning and oh my god it’s love. We both fell many, many times are now rather exhausted, but the weather was so peaceful for it, the water was gorgeous and just had the most fun we could. Lots of laughter. Can’t wait for more. Definitely need to work on our core strength though, wowzers.
Looking after my Aunts’ Hamish the border collie next week for a few days.
Thankfully dogs can’t talk cause he’s getting some premium eye fillet and won’t dob me in.
HAMBAM RETURNS
I looked after a friends dog for two weeks and after I dropped it off and was leaving the dog got in the car with me to come back to mine.
Hammy!!! He deserves all of the premium eye fiillet!
I ordered a schooner and received a side eye haha
It’s one thing I wish they’d embrace down here more. A midi is not enough and sometimes a pint is too much
The shape and heavy base keep the last mouthful chilled too.
I had few pints and forgot what state I was in hehe
Back in uni we would phonetically coach the American exchanges to order a skewwy a noow
Time to take more stuff to the op shops.
Can you take a few bags down for me too?
Should you want boxes…
