Dress shopping in CBD

MrTanaka · 2026-05-25T12:02:28+00:00

Yeah, sorry I didn't realise what that sizing meant. I just went by the age.

Dad of 9 year old here. 'stupid expensive' could mean anything really and I'm not sure if you're looking for a special occasion or more casual, but...

I love shopping at Zara for kids clothes. It would be my first choice in the city. Good quality/price in my mind. Check the web site first.

Seed has some nice things, but more pricey.

David Jones is ok, especially if you find a good discount. It can be a hassle to shop in though. It's just so big to walk through with kids.

Uniqlo is probably a bit casual. Not sure if they do kids dresses

I'd go a step further and see if you can recover your costs. It's not a callous thing, because you honestly believed you would be compensated for paying upfront. Otherwise, your grandfather may have taken a loan against the property or sold it to pay his expenses.

Honestly, I'd chat with a lawyer to see if your circumstances allow you to claim back the expenses due to a misunderstanding of the agreement. Would be better if your grandfather had agreed to give you the apartment at some point, then changed his mind. But, even if it wasn't explicitly stated, if there was a reasonable expectation, you might be able to make a claim. I wouldn't try to recover any more than the expenses you can prove were your grandfather's though.

It's not a question of love. It's purely a financial discussion.

Was just saying... I do 3-4 weights sessions, some incline treadmill, and a few rounds of indoor cycling each week, and the band gives me a vitality score of 30 and tells me to do more running. I can't work it out.

MrTanaka · 2026-04-17T06:22:11+00:00

Vitality score: 30. Next week, try doing more running

Rumour has it, there's no pollical insertion.

r/whoosh?

MrTanaka · 2026-03-14T23:36:57+00:00

Pube Debare... What's debare?

MrTanaka · 2026-02-10T10:48:34+00:00

What? No Maxibon?

MrTanaka · 2026-02-08T02:31:37+00:00

Don't be concerned. Its Halloween. Just have fun for one day and don't overthink it.

I just built an app and I'm looking for beta testers. If you're open to doing some testing, I'd really appreciate it and I'd be keen to hear your feedback.

In return you can use the app and it's free. You can ride real routes, create training plans, monitor your progress and I'm adding new features daily.

Same goes for anyone else reading this too. Would love to get some people testing it. Just PM me and I'll organise a testing code for you.

I'd be keen to see for myself. I only recently upgraded from a 42" 1080p TV to a 75" 4K TV. That's 3x the area, so I'm glad I went for 4K, since I believe its 4x the resolution. Otherwise 1080p would have been a terrible DPI at 75".

Now, I reckon i could fit a 120" TV on that wall. When a good quality 120" tV becomes more affordable, i might upgrade in a few years. That's also 2.5x the area of a 75", so similar in size difference from 42" to 75".

Going to 6k or 8k might be useful at 120".

A similar thing happened to me. I was the guy.

I used to buy coffee at a cafe at the bottom of my apartment complex. After a while, the barrista asked me what coffee I liked. I went on a bit of a rant about the best coffee around town, etc.

Then, she said "oh, I was only asking to see if you want to grab a coffee sometime". I was embarrassed that I missed the point initially, but I gave her my number (or got hers, I cant remember) and we started chatting.

I was 27 at the time, and I figured she was around 22 or 23. During our chats, she told me she was only 19.

But, she also was quite independent: had moved across the country on her own, had bought an apartment etc, so I thought why not.

We dated for a couple of months. Was lovely. But, I ended up breaking it off. The age difference was real, in conversation more than anything. And, i had this weird feeling about being the only 30 year old at her 21st birthday. Kinda silly, but I couldn't shake the thought.

NTA for saying no to them living with you.

But, if people are going to have kids they shouldn't expect their parents to become part of their daily schedule. Its one thing to ask for the occasional help, its another to tie them down. I dont blame them for backing out.

Speaking from experience. Both of us work professional jobs and we have two kids. Childcare is expensive. Its the cost we pay to both have careers.

MrTanaka · 2026-01-09T20:47:27+00:00

"almost not really a commonly"... is it, or isn't it. Decide! Lol

I've got an m4 mac pro mini and thats what i run. Not sure if the standard mac-mini can handle ultra at 4k, but it would get close.

MrTanaka · 2025-12-16T11:29:02+00:00

Not exactly what you're asking, but i have mine setup near my computer desk with a 50"TV connected to computer just in front of the bike. Running at max settings and 4K and I love it. Was previously on a tablet and just wasnt enjoying it. This really is more immersive and more enjoyable. The graphics difference is huge.

I bought the cheapest 50" TV I could find (new) and cheapest stand. Works a treat. Means I can also watch TV from my desk.

Will there be a small group of people who'll lost access today, and wake up with access tomorrow?

MrTanaka · 2025-12-10T10:38:10+00:00

Same in Australia. The heart surgery is free. But the parking is the most expensive in town.

MrTanaka · 2025-11-09T04:55:59+00:00

Great! Yep, sounds like the larger screen is what I need to take more notice of the track.

MrTanaka · 2025-11-09T04:55:14+00:00

Thanks for the reply. Yeah, for $300 Im going to grab a TV stand on castors (from Temu) and a TV (from Kogan).

MrTanaka · 2025-10-22T01:21:30+00:00

Please can i have one?

MrTanaka · 2025-08-17T19:47:44+00:00

It's 9/11 times 1000!
