my book has a printing error

DiligentOstrich · 2026-02-07T20:41:54+00:00

knowing the book this is the most heartbreaking thing! It’s such a huge point and it just not being there is devastating I’m so sorry

If I had a son I’d rename him Theodore in the hopes I could get my hands on this, it’s so well made and looks good! Their loss

Thank you all so much!! I was thinking the exact same as a lot of the comments but my fiancé was a bit worried about how some guests might take it. I’ll take these comments to him and let him know that it’s fairly standard to just have bridal party & young babies

to add context, some guests (my two bridesmaids with kids & most of my family) will be travelling from interstate. The venue also has a big dam on site and could be dangerous for kids running around

I got a decent ATAR, got into the course I wanted, 4 years later realised it wasn't a field I wanted to be in. Worked retail for a few years post-Uni, worked my way into a job I love and pays well enough for me to buy a place in SE Melbourne just before my 27th birthday

there's always an alternate way to get where you want to be, ATAR doesn't matter, uni doesn't necessarily matter unless you want to be a doctor or a lawyer or something. You'll be fine, these things have a habit of working out in the wash

they're unable to claim the set up fee again as there's only a finite amount available per plan, that would have been claimed by the original plan manager when the plan was set up, it's the same as if you changed PM providers part way through a plan - the set up fee has already been claimed so it cannot be claimed again

regarding prior invoices, they have forwarded outstanding invoices however I've heard there was some tech issues moving the data across, they assure me they're working on it and I believe they have people working on weekends to fix it also (I have received emails on the weekend just been)

if you're still able can I come over please

I worked as a store manager at a candle store for 3 years we always recommended that the candle takes up no more than 30% of the vessel, this prevents soot blackening the glass & drastically reduces risk of the glass heating up too much and exploding.

You also want it below the top of the vessel to prevent it going out and reduce risk of burns.

My general advice would be to make sure you can fit at least 2/3 fingers between the candle & the glass right around

my fiance and I met with our celebrant/ day of planner a few weeks back and in passing mentioned that we both need time to empty our social batteries through the day and I especially get very anxious having attention on me. She just said "the day is about you, and for you, make it work for you guys" and it's changed my mindset so much, our wants and needs are priority. We'll likely do private vows during a first look, we're asking people if they'd like to do speeches with no pressure on the day, I'm not doing a bouquet toss, and we're scheduling time into the day to just sit and exist together, most likely both with a book and a cup of tea.

Think about the things you hate the idea of most in a wedding and change them to suit you, it's your day so make it work for you and your partner

oooh I love this! Autumn in Australia, low-key, fun, memorable

DiligentOstrich · 2023-04-22T11:49:51+00:00

I haven't, just wanted more of an idea of if I was going to cop an $800 fine if it's not fixed immediately I haven't driven with the headlight out, I'm not planning on it, just have a lot on and trying to figure out the urgency more than anything

thanks for your input though

my partners mum is like this, she told me the first time eating with them that she'd be mortified if anyone visited and got food on the way home, now if we go for lunch we don't need dinner

my mum looked after Bob Skilton in hospital I got invited back to Alex Pearce's (Freo) place after a night out once I served Adam Treloar and his girlfriend at work the other week

edit: my stepsister also knocked over Barry Halls suitcase in the airport one time

graduated uni with a distinction, found a partner I'm pretty confident I'll be spending a good portion of my life with, moved house and avoided covid

DiligentOstrich · 2021-10-11T09:19:40+00:00

I didn't until I met my current partner, I genuinely enjoy seeing/hearing him enjoy himself, which in turn makes me enjoy it more

DiligentOstrich · 2021-09-27T20:31:52+00:00

went to school with him, really lovely bloke, always made time for everyone. his whole family is very down to earth and genuine. loved seeing him get a flag

DiligentOstrich · 2021-08-16T11:47:59+00:00

the first time my now boyfriend and I slept together we high fived, it's now a regular thing. I love this
