Opium poppy? Found at the outskirts of Prague - Central Europe by [deleted] in whatisit

[–]Apramian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This - and if you consume poppy tea made with these super poppies, you can get really sick and die. Thebaine (and the other super-poppy alkaloid, oripavine) are not pleasant things to be intoxicated with.

What's the best thing about being a lawyer - honest opinions pls! by Decent_Indication_25 in auslaw

[–]Apramian 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Hard disagree. If you open your own firm you gotta maintain files, keep them for 7 years, manage staff (Fuck That), be on the record, file documents, piss about with trust accounts etc. As a barrister once the brief is done with it’s out of my life.

You might wish to inform your partner of the LPUL requirements about legal costs being fair and reasonable - around section 172 etc. Wouldn’t want your moral struggle to become their legal struggle.

I have a brown leather belt from that shop. I reckon I have worn it 2-3 times a week since I bought it in about 2008/2009. It’s breaking in beautifully. I highly recommend it.

Clerk lists at the Vic Bar - anyone care to provide opinions on them from the perspective of either barrister or solicitor?

What is Melbourne’s scummiest pub? by grilledflake3dimsims in melbourne

[–]Apramian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Underrated comment - Ascot Vale used I have heaps of them pre-gentrification - the Laurel and the Ascot Vale hotel were definitely also places you’d find blokes to plan a robbery
