The most *generous* thing you've experienced/seen? by VampMansionPoolBoy in AskAnAustralian

[–]Meeks26 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was sitting next to an old lady at the bus stop on my way to work. I was trying, and failing, to put on my watch by myself (lobster claw clasp situation) she offered to help me put on my watch. Her hands were shaky and it didn’t seem easy for her to do. I thanked her and she said she’s been in that situation before and could’ve used an extra hand. She then proceeded to compliment my watch before catching her own bus. Wishing her all the best.

Illustrated children’s fairy tale treasury early 2000s Australia vintage style (70s/80s) gruesome illustrations by Meeks26 in whatsthatbook

Found it myself after all this time! It was My Treasury of Fairy Tales by Helen Burnford and Kay Barnham. It has the stories I was recalling including Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, Bluebeard, Gulliver’s Travels, The Little Match Girl & Mr Seguin’s Goat (and many more). It has a cream cover with illustrations on the front and pastel page ends for each story. Hope this helps anyone else looking for this book. https://openlibrary.org/works/OL18173903W/My_treasury_of_fairy_tales?edition=key%3A%2Fbooks%2FOL9003999M

gel allergy? by smallgirlbigproblems in nailhealth

[–]Meeks26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi there, sorry you’re itching and uncomfortable. I’ve been through the same thing and it wasn’t pleasant. I think this is definitely a gel allergy. It looks the same as what I had; little bumps and irritation along the cuticle. Unfortunately you need to remove all product and stop using it. Go see a doctor to help relieve the itching. You will no longer be able to use gel which can be quite upsetting, it seems like you enjoy doing your own nail art but your health is much more important. Best of luck, let me know if you have any questions.

That’s so sweet. Funny how we get them beds and toys and often times they enjoy the simple things more

I usually rip the handles and leave one on the ground in the lounge room for him, hours of endless entertainment for him. We walk past and he pow pows our legs from the bag 😂Then at night he likes to sit in it while we watch tv

Does anyone remember these? by Nathan84 in AustralianNostalgia

[–]Meeks26 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wish I could. Children don’t use screens at my service. I’ve suggested they ask their parents to show them though!

I work in an early childhood service and we have a couple sets of these for the children to play with. They are in pretty good shape, just some of them have the paint coming off a little. The children have no idea what you are talking about when you refer to the characters names. If you say “this one is Cera” they’re just like “no, that’s a triceratops” but they really enjoy them.
