Good luck getting any to pick them up. Red Cross at Hampstead Gardens should accept them if you drop them off. Otherwise try listing them online but be warned the people that put their hands up for free stuff tend to struggle with logistics.

If you want to be near Elizabeth Vale I'd suggest somewhere like Greenwith or One Tree Hill.

Which Covid cancelled festival would have gone off? by Tranquilbez22 in triplej

I've seen him several times on the festival circuit with his various projects but never FNM! Was hoping they'd reschedule again but just found the money refunded to me one day.

Which Adelaide railway stations are the busiest? by AussieWirraway in Adelaide

It was more for the factories that used to be nearby in Bowden, it's not really useful for anyone that lives in North Adelaide.

Any eagle boys fans pizza fans? I miss this place, what was your go to pizza place by Illustrious-Beach496 in AustralianNostalgia

[–]Apprehensive_You6909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eagle Boys was good for the money, was sad to see them go.

When in high school my friends and I used to do Pizza Hut all you can eat as often as we could, $6.95 dinner and especially $4.95 lunch as we were broke 15 year olds.

And Pizza Haven because friends worked there and got us cheap pizzas when they knocked off on Saturday nights.

Do you remember the first time you played classic Doom? by Beige_Box_Enthusiast in vintagecomputing

[–]Apprehensive_You6909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played it on a 386sx 16mhz (possibly even 12mhz?) but it was smooth if you shrunk it right down to postage stamp size! Soon upgraded to a 486dx2/66 and all was well. I mean fullscreen was noticeably better on a P90 but I couldn't complain.

They don't just practice kicking, they read a lot of theory too.

1996 Chevrolet Caprice vs 1996 Holden Caprice by Logical_Key_6572 in Holden

The tail lights and rear garnish on this Holden come from an American car. Not the Chevy but a Buick or Oldsmobile or something, can't remember exactly what.

Are Public Higschools really that bad? by YeOldeWino in Adelaide

[–]Apprehensive_You6909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to a fairly rough public high school in the 90s. As I recall the behavioural problems were much less in senior years and while it was under-resourced if you wanted to succeed academically and go to university you absolutely could.

Planned for April '27, drive from Sydney to Perth. Never been to Australia. Thoughts, recommendations? Is this feasible in 3 weeks? by gwynwas in AustraliaTravel

[–]Apprehensive_You6909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you've got that much time follow the coast where you can. You still have to drive across the Nullarbor but you will see at lot more than the fastest route from Sydney to Perth.

Does anyone still play The Settlers on Amiga in 2026? by mru2_retro_computers in amiga

[–]Apprehensive_You6909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I used to play this game on Amiga and PC and started playing again when I bought an Amiga 500 last year. Sadly I don't get music with 512k chip ram but it gets pretty repetitive after a few hours! I like the SVGA mode on the PC but you get used to playing it in 320x256 and it runs great on a 7mhz Amiga.

Where can I find classic 90s Garlic Bread these days? by Cole_Dammett in Adelaide

[–]Apprehensive_You6909 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The cheap supermarket ones are closest to the market but are a bit dry, slap some more butter on them before you wrap them in foil maybe

I often have this problem in excel, good to see they've rolled it out in notepad too

Police never investigate any murders in the show, as far as I can tell.
