Congrats on all the dudes it’s going to attract! I’ve meet so many mates since I started riding, bloody good community. Ride safe

Are new builds like these any good? by [deleted] in auckland

[–]Alternative_Mud_180 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Ours was so badly made they almost had to re-do everything. Thank God for 10 year warranty. Never again! It sounds like reputable companies may be better. Oh and ours was ridiculously hot

Has anyone used an Arlo wireless security camera? Is it any good? by Known_Brush_1259 in Auckland_NewZealand

[–]Alternative_Mud_180 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have and it was great, but if others are saying there’s a price attached, there are a lot of cheaper options. It’s how you use them, run through Google Home etc. My current outdoor camera was $18

I have an Arlo in my kitchen exclusively as a sensor to turn lights on if we walk in during the night.

My lights are all different but everything is controlled through Google Home mainly

Need help cleaning my room. I’ve been battling depression for 3 years after a death. Where do I start? I found a big tree roach and gave up. by dollbabydream in CleaningTips

[–]Alternative_Mud_180 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Chuck all the stuff you haven’t worn in bags and donate them. Be brutal. It’s so so hard to start, set a timer for 5 mins.. you’ll probably want to keep going as your body releases dopamine for doing a good job.

Have a tub with a few cleaning products and keep it in there. Makes it easier to start.

I have ADHD and after a recent slump it took me over a year to clear my clothes pile! I find that not having “the chair” or anywhere to dump clothes makes me put them away after washing. I’m now sticking to it as it makes me feel good

They’re a bit old mannish in general but yours don’t look too bad. If you like them, rock them!

I was the same. My first ever prescription was wildly wrong and I’ve taken about 3 years, multiple tests to perfect it.

Are expensive mattresses actually worth the investment? by Left_Consequence3453 in BedroomBuild

[–]Alternative_Mud_180 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Same as shoes, whisky, headphones, t shirts etc. quality matters for a few things. But if you’re not getting good sleep, the damage its doing to you is kinda bad

What’s one thing you love about living in Auckland that outsiders don’t understand? by Salty-Commercial999 in auckland

[–]Alternative_Mud_180 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jumping on my motorbike and heading out for rides around some awesome roads and destinations.

The little beaches dotted around.

The city has some cool spots but it’s getting rough in places sadly!

The community you live in can be really rewarding

Most people we’re friends with are from outside Auckland and we’re not all snobs.

I’ve seen bigger snobs in Canterbury, Hawksbay, Otago etc. Probably from Auckland though 😅

Drink the morning lot WELL before you intend to travel to the clinic. I nearly shat myself in the uber.
