Guess who survived the treacherous car journey…
BBOI DID! without a single noise.
First thing he did when he got out of his little travel bag was eat and gave massive headbutts and just flopped
Such a brave warrior.
Well done bboi, you deserve a good flop and a scritch
He is so handsome. 😍
He’s so lovely, I really wanna hug him 💗😸🤗

You mean the very real very much working antique camera, right?? Edit: sorry I think I heard you say it was rare too, correct?
Check for all the tools and equipment.
Cripes. We had someone try our garage, thankfully my fucked up sleeping pattern tends to scare off the ferals
Ugh, that’s awful!

Oh that’s shit. I’d call the cops and your insurance company in any case.

Whatever you do, DO NOT tell the insurance company what you think might be missing over the phone. Tell them the cops have been called, and you’ll send through a list of missing items once you have it itemized.
They might try and trap you into listing things over the phone. Don’t say you don’t think anything is missing either. Take your time to put a list together, and be generous to yourself.

Rookie mistake. You can still salvage it. The burglars got away with power tools (not top of the line, but mid range), your extensive DVD porn collection (insurance company will give you cash equivalent) and a couple of laptop
Sadly, you can’t claim cash.
Oh goodness, very glad that you and the cats are ok. It’s such an invasive feeling when that happens! Have you reported it to the police?

Glad you’re okay.
It’s really unnerving when that happens.

Oh man the cats would be my worst fear. Take what you want, just don’t let the cats escape.

Single course of brick between existing brick wall and our shiny new retaining wall done and imma gonna need a brick cutter for these angles on the next one because fuck this bolster.
Which i can’t get
Because covid
Remind me to keep a brick spare to put in a sock and hit my bil with it.
He gets fucking coal for Christmas next year!
Ironically a mate actually did get coal this year
…briquettes. To go with the hibachi we bought her.
Being single is a funny thing. Society doesn’t know what to do with you because you’re not following the script.
Agree with this. Go with the flow, and rejoice that for the time being, you don’t have to share.
I see other people’s relationships and I think yeah there’s been some big compromises and frankly tolerance of horrendous behavior that would never be acceptable to me. And I think to myself yeah I’m good thanks.
Feel the same as a dink. Constantly harassed about kids…. Do whatever, the life script has expired
Usually I just lurk around these parts because… I have commitment issues I guess lol
Just reading up so much in between MMA writing and Reddit posting, but I’ve noticed some regulars have even left here?? Like hongo and omikiri …I think I spelt that right
Anyway enough rambling. Christmas was ok and shit as usual, thought Wollert was going to flood yesterday but the storms didn’t stay for long. Dreading new years with all the fireworks as I don’t know if it’ll be legit or we’re being invaded lol
Half jokes
Omoikiri is still around sometimes. She’s Dr. Omoikiri now.
We had eh… a bit of a fallout with Hongo.
I hope hongo is doing well but I feel they had unrealistic expectations for this oddball group of internet people.
Yeah she seemed to be looking for more consistent support but most of us just drop by for a bit before going back to whatever it is we are doing. I hope she’s well!
Hongo had a bit of an episode, some people tried to talk her down and we weren’t the best at it, she lashed out, got told attacking people wasn’t ok and in the state she was in set fire to everything on the way out. I hope she comes back, or even that she’s just ok and it’s imagined embarrassment that’s keeping her away. She had an episode, it doesn’t mean the end of everything unless you want it to.
Smeg and OIP aren’t around any more either, I’m just guessing they moved onto spending less time on the internets lol. Something I’d like to aim for in 2024
I’m a regular but went with a new name here. Maybe ppl are just really busy ? I stay on reddit for the cute cat pics. Pallas cats are the perfect cross between floofball and grumpy cat
I’ve put about a months worth of movies/TV shows on my external hard drive for the cruise just in case I run out of bingos/trivias/lounging/audiobooks/etc. It’s nice to have options. My tablet/laptop can run games too so I’ve got Death Stranding and EA Sports PGA Tour on there. I think Jedi Survivor might still be installed too.
I think I’m covered. It’s almost time to whip the suitcase out and start packing!
We are gonna need lots of pics bull. Bon voyage.
I want to thank everyone for their cheese advice yesterday.
About to head down to the bellarine with a kilo of assorted cheeses and will do all the cheese recommendations.
And bboi butters the burmese kitty is being dropped off today and he will help hopefully.
Made my day with bboi announcement. I am now primed to receive new images of this beautiful kitty.
Two for two, can’t avoid them next Christmas, this shall be my attire next year:
A lot people probably took home leftover ham and covid for Christmas. Get well soon.
Same BIL got us this year and last year
My dad and his side of the family all caught it as well recently.
I don’t want covid again :/
Got a head start on new years and massively cleared out my primary email (going back to 2004! 2004!!!) after being nagged by google for months about running out of storage. Deleting nearly two decades of Fw:Fw:Fw: from aunties and uncles as well as about 30,000+ newsletter/promo emails has done the job. I should probably be okay for another two decades.
Finally marked as read/deleted a stack of ignored/unread emails too and am at inbox zero for the first time in a decade. Feelsgoodman.jpg
Best feeling ever! Sorting emails & computer files is on my break to-do list, too
Pop on your best tartan and munch on some shortbread, it’s time for the Edinburgh Tattoo on the ABC. Love me some bagpipes.
My choir got to perform with that when it came to Melbourne back in 2016. It was AWESOME. I had so much fun.
Ooh that would’ve been amazing!
It was incredible, such a cool opportunity. My favourite act to watch was the Swiss Secret Drummers.
I ate too much because Im feeling depressed. Currently Watching Netflix with my cat, pondering when I’m going to schedule pavlova and potato salad … baked gingerbread cookies today - must fit in all the holiday foods before work on Tuesday
So many hugs.
Couldn’t sleep with bloat and back pain again so I’ve come to the gym. Been… a while since I’ve stepped foot in this place which I pay handsomely for access to.
Heavy lat pulldowns might have solved the back problem, hopefully. Few cracks and pops.
I’m so tired.
Mrs is at work so it’s a dad/kiddo day. She’s been gone 2 hours and he’s already managed to smash his head on the floor. Nice going dad. Having to call the Mrs and be like “yo this happened” on day 1 is not a good start.
i managed to smash my head on the wall, while sitting in bed, with 4 adults beside me
I’ve managed to fall up stairs before. I always thought that was an achievement.
I dove off a chest of drawers onto my head, and bit through my lip as a baby, my lip is still a little lopsided. Kids are tough!
