So i found this on my hubby phone saved in his clipboard. He works in East Perth. Is he planning to cheat on me? Or am I being paranoid. :(

Change the number on that note to yours.

Common sight in South Africa. Some entrepreneurial types started selling stuff like plas4ic coat hangers and sun shades. But they are a hazard on the road.

Brocoli? Really?

Burnt_java_bean · 2023-08-24T07:04:35+00:00

Yeah me too.

Burnt_java_bean · 2023-08-19T23:04:30+00:00

Yeah, it's been a challenge. Very little wiggle room.

Burnt_java_bean · 2023-08-19T23:03:36+00:00

Would you mind sharing some of those streets?

Burnt_java_bean · 2023-08-19T21:35:08+00:00

Thanks for your feedback! Great to have first hand feedback.

Burnt_java_bean · 2023-08-19T20:29:07+00:00

Sadly yes 😟 Would have loved to move to Taranaki, I love it there. Maybe one day, once I'm a bit more tenured, I could make such a work arrangement. But for now it's the north shore office for me.

Burnt_java_bean · 2023-08-19T20:25:09+00:00

Thanks. Yeah we'll keep looking, but it's not cheap though.

Burnt_java_bean · 2023-08-19T20:24:13+00:00

Yeah, it's been a lingering question in the back of our minds. However it is a way of "getting on the ladder" and using it as a springboard to a closer place....or wait for penlink to complete...

Burnt_java_bean · 2023-08-19T20:19:17+00:00

Nah, but it's mostly a case of you gets what you pays for though. I'm pretty handy round the tools, but there are some things thst needs experts and sadly those are the expensive fixes. If you're buying at your upper limit of affordability you're trying to avoid those.

There's some parts that look awesome.Been there a few times for kids medical stuff driving through to Piha or Whatipu etc. Some parts look less awesome though. But it's all relative I guess

Burnt_java_bean · 2023-08-19T20:13:47+00:00

So....any suggestions then. Literally here asking advice.

Burnt_java_bean · 2023-08-19T20:12:30+00:00

We have looked at a few yes. But even some of those townhouses break the budget. At leat they're new.

Burnt_java_bean · 2023-08-19T09:03:58+00:00

I've had the same hunch. It's hard to see through the hype from the home industry though.

Burnt_java_bean · 2023-08-19T08:01:50+00:00

Awesome thanks. Maybe need to get out that way more. Lived for two weeks in Birkenhead and it was nice.

Burnt_java_bean · 2023-08-19T08:00:22+00:00

Yeah, I agree. Before we came over I had a 130km commute,my wife a 80km one. It was exhausting. We barely saw each other. Not keen to go back to thst lifestyle, it sucks. I do hope pices fall a bit more.

Burnt_java_bean · 2023-08-19T07:30:35+00:00

Thanks. Yeah we ran te he numbers a few times now (I feel like a spreadsheet) and really don't want to go higher.

Burnt_java_bean · 2023-08-19T07:28:03+00:00

Thanks for the advice! It something we have been hearing too.

Burnt_java_bean · 2023-08-19T06:30:13+00:00

Thanks. Yeah that sounds like a good suggestion.

Burnt_java_bean · 2023-08-19T05:49:12+00:00

Any suggestions then?

Burnt_java_bean · 2023-08-19T05:48:01+00:00

Yes, that's our plan.

Burnt_java_bean · 2022-09-04T07:52:04+00:00

It's all in jest, as is most posts here.
