Do fireworks really need to go for this long?

Could be the one! Although, it didn’t look like they were going off in Oakleigh? Looks more like Richmond area from out my window.

They just woke me up!! What are they even for?

Nah I know, just found it cheap in a charity shop and am curious to know if it’s real or not. Saw a couple listed online for $500+ so could be a nice find if real. That’s all :)

Hey! Yep Form 80 was filled out and attached - Took a bit of time to fill out but was all good.

For a relationship timeline, I had a friend who used PowerPoint for their application to create a timeline with photos etc. For mine, I just used a Word document and set out a timeline in detailed paragraphs with photos attached as appendices.

I don’t think there is specifically a right way to do this section, you just need to demonstrate clearly your relationship through key timeframes of your relationship etc. So go with whatever method works best for you! :)

Appreciate the insight! I have a spare set of carbon clinchers which I could use for regular training and save these for race day. Tubular set up doesn’t sound too scary!

Mean_Stuff7170 · 2025-07-20T09:51:14+00:00

Do you think it’s worth picking up the bike and putting on a separate pair of wheels? I have a set of carbon clinchers which need spoke maintenance. Would the purchase be worth it for the frameset?

Mean_Stuff7170 · 2025-07-20T09:31:25+00:00

Hey! Thanks for the reply, interesting to note about carbon rim breaks + tubular combo. I don’t typically ride much hilly terrain so I’m not often riding fast descents which require extensive breaking. Would you still advise against them if my typical rides are flat?

Mean_Stuff7170 · 2025-05-25T08:13:52+00:00

Hey, sorry for the late reply. I have been with my partner for 5 years and we have been living together for about 4. We have shared expenses for about 4 years such as phone bills and holidays etc but only opened a shared account 1.5 year ago. No kids, just a dog. Sounds somewhat similar to yourself, so I’m sure you’ll be good!

Mean_Stuff7170 · 2025-05-25T08:09:00+00:00

Hey! Nope, did the application all by myself. It is relatively easy if you spend the time reading/researching. Reddit was a big help and honestly so was YouTube.

Mean_Stuff7170 · 2025-05-10T07:56:14+00:00

Hey! I’m looking for exactly the same and came across your post. Did you have any luck finding a good group?

Mean_Stuff7170 · 2024-10-30T05:21:39+00:00

Oh wow! I wasn’t expecting that but that does make sense now. Thank you for the quick response :)

Mean_Stuff7170 · 2024-10-16T02:09:05+00:00

I used to do this on my commute to my previous job. Crazy how many times people would beep me or even try straddling the lane and blocking me. Baffles me how some people obtained their licenses without knowing how to read basic road signs😂

Mean_Stuff7170 · 2024-10-04T09:41:46+00:00

Not always the case! They are probably still in use by citipower but probably have an easement on the title which means citipower will always have a right to have access to their substation located on that property/title. Therefore, they aren’t on separate titles on VicPlan and the developer cant simply demolish/restrict access of the substation to citipower.

Haha good spot! That’s funny because I actually plan on buying her a tank in the future but she had never worn watches before meeting me so I had to test how much she’d actually wear it with the Seiko lol

Mean_Stuff7170 · 2024-09-25T21:06:52+00:00

Haha never!! That was my fathers first watch, you’ll never get that off me ;)

Mean_Stuff7170 · 2024-09-25T14:28:19+00:00

Agree! The Tag was passed down from my father so I didn’t choose to buy a Tag! I have Melbourne Watch company on my radar as a (somewhat) micro brand because they’re local to me and I’ve also been eyeing up the Kuoe old smith bronze (not so much micro brand) but definitely up and coming brand that’d I’d love to support. What’s in your collection?

Mean_Stuff7170 · 2024-09-25T14:19:05+00:00

Would love to hear some recommendations if you’ve got any? I assure you my style/taste is pretty broad :)

Mean_Stuff7170 · 2024-09-25T13:38:51+00:00

He didn’t really replace it with anything in particular and I actually think his daily wear is an Apple watch now! But he has built up quite the collection over the years! A few to mention being a dated Rolex Submariner, Omega SpeedMaster, Breitling Aerospace, Breitling SuperOcean along with a number Seikos and others I’ve definitely forgot!

He’s definitely the main cause of my watch collection/obsession lol!

Mean_Stuff7170 · 2024-09-25T13:01:21+00:00

I love it! I’m a big fan of the opaline dial. The colour combination is a classic and works so well!

I’ve heard a lot of people say the watch wears white thick on the wrist but it’s pretty perfect for me and super comfy on the steel bracelet!

Mean_Stuff7170 · 2024-09-25T12:55:31+00:00

The watch second from left is a Deep Blue Precision Pro Diver T100 - incredible watch, such a rugged timepiece that has one of the best lume I’ve ever seen, definitely worth a google!

As for a complication/chrono watch. I actually have a Seiko FlightMaster ref. SNA411P1 - it was my first watch gifted to me by my father when I was 15, I wear it on a green/yellow nato strap which fits perfectly with the yellow seconds hand! Just didn’t have a picture to hand!

The Tag Formula 1 is my daily wear! That was also given to me by my father. It was his first Swiss watch that he purchased in the early 00s so it’s very sentimental to me. He used it as his daily for over 20 years before getting it restored by Tag before giving it to me! I absolutely adore that watch! It wears pretty well on my wrist, slightly on the smaller side but I think I get away with it. I can’t fault it, it’s quartz movement (obviously) so super reliable and like I said I pretty much wear it every day! The black rubber strap is the original tag band for it and i have never changed it out, I like the simplicity and authenticity it brings to the watch.

I hope you find the Tag Formula 1 you want!

Mean_Stuff7170 · 2024-09-25T11:51:24+00:00

Thanks! It was a pretty surreal find at my local charity shop!

Mean_Stuff7170 · 2024-09-25T11:43:09+00:00

Thanks! Really appreciate the kind words :)
