FINALLY!
My car is back from the mechanics who was doing the roadworthy check.
It’s officially legal to drive lol
what did it need in the end?
New windscreen and an engine bracket needed to be changed.
New windscreen is always nice anyway. It’s like new sunnies for your car.
The view from client office
That’s a view and a half.
Weird story. Went to St. patricks cathedral with an ex and her aunt (who was a devout catholic). She was bangin’ on about how god was everywhere ‘like the internet’. ‘In walls, in the air’. A few hours earlier she asked me to set up her wifi / chuck in the router password on her phone to use ex’s internet at ex’s home… so I asked her if god forgets his password too.
Didn’t go down too well.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Absolute gold!
Are they hiring
If they were id be working here lol
I went to St Patrick’s in November, visiting from Adelaide. An amazing building, very beautiful interior
Happy Lunar New Year 🧧
It’s the year of the ssssnake 🐍
ooh that’s me! I’m a snek 🐍
Me too! It’s gonna be a lucky year for us! 🐍
Um, you might want to check out question 9 of this quiz.
O-oh. Luckily I was born with the initials RED.
Nice. Luck I wear a lot of red!
Good sirs, if you are going to have the balls to charge 25 dollars for a Calabrese salad then, for the love of god, the tomatoes better not be CRUNCHY. And the cheap arse everyday toms from the supermarket. 😡 It’s only three ingredients FFS.
This is what I get for thinking I am going to have a little early treat because I have been disciplined this year so far. Back to home cooked.
Okay I’m going to officeworks. What pens do you want?
Edit: ok I’m back from the shop. I have pastel highlighters, 72 pack of Derwents, erasable ink pens some with double eraser, 4 colour pens enough for everyone, a Windsor and Newton purple, fancy green fountain pen, pack of pilot pens, and an mega multicolour pen. Also box of Bics because they are an icon, and everyone gets a multi pack of coloured post-its because they were near the cashier and who can resist them.
Is there any other choice?
Pastel highlighter and colour pencils please
Erasable ink pens?
One of those old pens where you can pick from like a bajillion colours
Edit: this one will do for now
I always wanted Derwents in a big wooden box!
Faber Castell all the way for me.
Lamy green fountain pen ink?
That is an excellent haul 👌🏻
The erasable pens please. Make sure the eraser is on both ends please.
Have recently discovered Pilot Juice pens and I looooove them!
A bottle of purple Windsor & Newton please
trying out the new telephoney up close on chillo:
I’m actually impressed.
That’s a nice picture.
phone up and running. Oppo A18. Pretty painless. Not bad for $180.
First piccy:
Nothing to write home about but it works.
The garden looks like it’s starting to settle in. 🌞
I think it’ll be ok :) a few losses but most seem to be making it out alive.
I adore that sundial
do they still have that god awful over the top UI with all the colours? or have they finally toned that down a bit?
It seems pretty toned down. I was expecting far worse heh. Keeps on automatically installing shit though. Deleted candy crush 4 times now lol :(
I made the mistake of looking at the forecast for next week 🥵
Eeep.
Well there goes the weekend. Aircon and sleep it is.
Holy crap, that’s awful.
Oh that is properly ugly. Fingers crossed some of it gets revised down.
New phone probably arriving today. As a kid would’ve been excited but not these days so got an el’ cheapo crappy one (oppo something or rather).
Old iphone refuses to charge I think because of bringing into the ocean so many times and the charging port has corroded lol. Worth it though. Had to be replaced anyway but I’m glad it kicked the bucket doing what it loved.
I know that you mean. The excitement has pretty much evaporated for me as well.
this is the leading argument in my mind to jump ship every so often. Samsung to iphone? Huge. Samsung to Samsung or iphone to iphone? meh. Running my poor 13 into the ground till theres something worth upgrading, like the 120hz display on the new pros.
love new phone days! But yeah a cheap oppo is probably a bit hard to get excited about. Wont you not have a backup if your moving to a non-iphone?
Yea the backup is gonna be an issue. Don’t mind a clean slate though, sort of liberating.
except the photos and contacts, sure. i’ve got my photos tripled backed up.
30-60 minutes with a new phone, and it looks identical to my old phone. If I took a screenshot of my phone from 10 years ago, it’d be close enough to my present phone as to be indistinguishable.
Where they differ is the quality of the photos I take. I still took my DSLR around most of the time 10 years ago. I rarely bother these days. It still takes better photos, but the difference is not worth the effort unless I’m specifically going some place to take photos.
I slept like shit
me too. Second night in a row. Dont know if its cause Im crook or what but my brain is just racing.
Yay, I have clearance to “piss off” early today. Just have to make a site visit quickly, spend a little time there and go home from there.
Should be home before 2:30 today.
Just in time for the cricket and a late lunch!
finally got to a ripe strawberry before whatever is eating them (despite being net’ed I might ad). God it was good! Only 1, and not massive but it was so sweet and flavorful how do you ever go back to store brought ones after that?!
You don’t. Homegrown strawbs have spoiled me for life. As has homegrown asparagus, tomatoes, lettuce, cucumbers and green beans. And quite a lot of other veg that I haven’t grown for a while now. But home strawbs a pretty damn special.
man dont talk to me about tomatoes at the moment. tomatoes are probably the biggest stress point in my life right now. Got a decent amount but still very very green and the plants are clearly in distress.
Yep. Once the solstice happens, the plants start to go all yellow at the endy bits. Mine are looking pretty sad but the toms still keep coming. Still got a few still to ripen.
Omg! Just realised I will be able to put asparagus in the new garden. 💚
Yass! Nothing compares. I would suggest planting in pretty much pure compost in a barrel or similar. Once it starts to yield though be prepared for asparagus for breakfast lunch and dinner for a few weeks. But so so good.
I shall pickle it! Haven’t been able to find the supermarket one I like for ages. I have several Hex beds. Once I get the sunlight pattern figured out this is happening.
Now I really want to grow asparagus.
It is Wednesday my dudes

Everyday, I wake up and I feel like I haven’t really woken up until night time. So I go the whole day metaphorically staring into space.
Maybe I need to start taking iron tablets again.
You can get the 100 pack of Maltofer for ≈$53.90 by price matching at Chemist Warehouse at the moment. There’s also a new catalogue starting tomorrow and it might be on special, usually they take it down to $55.
Thank you!! Chemist Warehouse currently says $66 and I can only see an online store that’s got it for 55. I shall look out for a special.
Bring a box to the CW counter and request a price match for this, should get you the lower price.
Cheers :)
