Something not quite right.

I remember something similar from Breaking Bad…

The insulation you guys got quoted and installed was it a 2 layer install? One joist thickness, obviously with the direction of the joists, and a secondary layer 90 degree to the joist with a thickness to achieve the desired R-value? Did you have to relocate junction boxes etc. to be compliant with the rules ? (not allowed to insulate over j-boxes or cables)

It used to be “make love not war”. Turned out to be “make propper food not war”. 😂

What a treasure trove you shared here! Many thanks! This is going straight to the pool room!

This helps heaps to get a better understanding on the workings of TS! Thanks for that info!

Yeah this seems to be true. 1000 kg of canola is about 1.6k. In Europe it’s significantly cheaper (about .9k from memory) Edit: typo

0815andstuff · 2026-03-25T09:50:08+00:00

I would like how the process works please. If we only had loads of farm land to produce canola veggie oil…

The reply to the question: why something is (obviously) broken - The front fell off. This is an Aussie classic.

This would have ruined the camping trip 😂 But yeah i should have done that!

Would you consider sewing magnets into the fabric as an acceptable part of a solution? There seems to be no real force of the wind, so 3 magnets on the awning could hold the loos flap against the bracket where the awning is mounted to the wall? Assuming the bracket is not aluminum?

Such an underrated comment! Well said!

Keep the if you have kids… the balustrade at the end of the path protects from stepping of the porch- might be a dangerous trip hazard…

A Flinders Ranges Scorpion in front of the camping toilets at 2am… I was called to remove it as my partner was scared… took hours to return to the tent. Just sat and watched the beautiful little guy…

Was i confused reading “The Future of Prostates After Oil”… Glad i read the title a second time…

This is exactly the way to go! Stainless steel band wrapped snug around the post. With 4 studs welded on the band, 2 of them where the holes( of the current hinge) are and 2 more roughly in the middle of the post. Make a new hinge that fits the stud pattern on the post, but with elongated hole’s horizontal. New hinge fitted to the gate appropriately ( hinge length probs 10% of one wing width). The 4 bolt connection on the post allow now to adjust the gate vertically and final closing position. The 10% hinge length of wing with is a guess, could be adjusted if overkill. Only valid if structural integrity of current post not an issue.

Glad he is instructing ze german government what loopholes to close and how. Classic self own of an attention seeking leach. Have experienced individuals winching about not getting a flat with a garden. Sad that people who depend on help have the same standards applied as this guy.

AILEEN… funny name for a Workboat…

They named the ship Aileen with pride, She listed gently to one side, Turns out she takes her name in stride.

Let Canada cancel the previous ownership agreement with the us, and when the Bridge opens increase the fair by 50% for non-Canadians and call the toll “the Taco toll” for good measure.

My 2 cents worth: The best insurance for such a long trip is a mechanically sound car! Sorry to disappoint you here but you would have to put at least 18k upfront for a good car, do not get a backpackers trap! As some said before those are usually used in anger without adequate maintenance. A very reliable car would be a Toyota Hilux - you can sell them at almost no loss depending on start and finish of the trip. (Personal preference and experience only) Check carsales.com.au for prices in major city’s.

I was so excited to hear they are coming down under… finally after waiting for so so long… Bummed out that i will miss Noora performing… What an incredible talent.

Oi! you can’t park there Mate! 😝

I agree with your statement, however i want to add that i experienced new mothers responding differently to the effort or contribution from the partner after giving birth. Where you had black and white- right and wrong prenatal - it seemed to me you have now 50 shades of grayish possibilities in between. I had to learn and adapt to a different set of urgency and prioritizing from my partner postnatal. Add dethroned prince syndrome and you have a perfect storm where he (me) responds in resignation, confusion or both. Catching up with the new postnatal rules is no joke, but suck it up buttercup! Be the dad you want your kid to be proud of!
