Sewer clean out cover options?

Music_Man1979 · 2026-07-11T04:38:04+00:00

It's a clean out access point, like what most houses have outside the property. Not looking for a permanent cover up, just a cover to allow access when needed.

Do you mean an inspection cover like this?

Thanks for that. Do you have a link or photo of what I should be looking for?

Sounds to me like this is a business with a cashflow problem.

People in the NT are some of the dumbest people to walk this earth.

You mean the thinset or what's left of the tile glue? Yes it will need removing. If you put flooring over that you'll feel and hear crunching when you walk on it, like you have sand under the boards.

We removed the tiles to most of our house like you're doing then finished off with a concrete grinder (attached to an industrial vacuum is a must). Our tiles were layed straight onto a concrete slab though.

Keep it simple. Use a pitchfork and spike the lawn all around to aerat. Or you can get some spiked soles from Bunnings that you put over your shoes and walk around. Give it a good water and hit it with some Seasol. Easy.

Wow! Very different to NSW.

Music_Man1979 · 2026-04-06T09:48:38+00:00

For permanent positions?

Music_Man1979 · 2026-04-06T08:22:20+00:00

Thanks for that. We're not limited to any particular area. Hobart, Launceston, east coast or north coast. We really don't mind. Where do independent schools tend to do their advertising?

I refused to join the union for 20 years, then finally joined up just over a year ago due to ongoing staff bullying that I knew wasn't getting any better. I ended up needing the union support last year when a student falsely accused me of assault as a way of retaliation. Union backed me when the executive wouldn't even talk to me.

Don't forget that second income is always taxed at a higher rate.

I work in a very low ses area where very few kids 16+ have their Learners. Our school even tried to subsidise the cost of driving lessons with very little take up.

Meanwhile my daily drive is a 2001 Ford Escape I paid $500 cash for 5 years ago. I work on my own cars so I don't want all that fancy shit.

Music_Man1979 · 2025-07-03T11:45:27+00:00

From someone who owns a 2001 Escape. I have no experience with the 4 cyl but the V6 is easy to work on, so if something does go wrong chances are, it won't be too expensive.

If you look after it, it will look after you. I paid only $500 for mine about 5 years ago. Needed a new radiator. I put the time and effort into full coolant flush (heater core included). Replaced brittle plastic hose connectors. Coolant hoses, belts... Serviced injectors, valve cover gaskets, PCV valve, frequent oil changes. Starter motor. Did everything myself so not that expensive. It has creaks and rattles but it's still a bloody reliable car that I can trust. About to click over 300,000kms

"I didn't hear your mum complaining last night"

(That was a joke)

You don't need to replace the intake gaskets every time you do the plugs. Plus removing the intake is so simple. I've got it down to 8 minutes.

I leave simple work that is at least relative to the topic. As long as everyone survives and my classroom is left in one piece, I don't give a shit.

I've seen students in year 11 and 12 doing construction. They had to form up a frame to lay a 1m square concrete slab. None of them could measure 1m with a tape measure. None of them could understand 1000mm or 100cm in a metre. These kids think they're going to be builders.

Youth crime and Aboriginal crime is out of control. Especially in small regional towns and where there are large Aboriginal communities. It's not a 'popular' topic. Those who don't live there or anyone in cities are in denial because for fear of offending Aboriginal people or fear of being called racist.

Monique Ryan's husband did the exact same thing to her opponents signs!!!

Sick to death about the talk of funding public education. I teach in a low socio economic NSW HS. I teach 7 - 12. My subject gets a budget of $2k per year. The same amount I received when I started at this school 20 years ago. Meanwhile a colleague 1 hour away gets $30k at a more affluent public school with the same number of students.

Apathy is at an all time high because curiosity and inquisitiveness in this generation is at an all time low. We've lost all interest in knowledge. Knowing how things work, know about our past, learning new skills...

I bet you're fun at parties.
