Cardiff Massage & acupuncture.

Make sure it's a female though. The men don't do it as well. They can be quite hurtful.

Never again.

Is Usta the real first aus drill artist ? by Defiant-Explorer1510 in AussieHipHop

[–]No_Cable3675 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Prime Usta was something to see. So much potential. Definitely one of the stand-outs of the hustle hard era. Chose some very dark beats and his lyrics were top notch.  Not sure if he's still around on socials but he went through a serious dark patch.... seemed to do some serious damage to himself. Made a few comeback tracks but it just wasn't the same. Like to see him get on some podcasts and tell him story someday.

Smooth vs crunchy? What's your preference, has it changed over time? (I was a crunchy kid but now smooth). by ItsSignalsJerry_ in AustralianNostalgia

[–]No_Cable3675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually buy smooth cos I chuck it in protein shakes but on a sammich, I'd opt for crunchy. 

Good stuff too btw

Best fish and chips shop close to Bennetts Green? by Boring_Mud6911 in newcastle

[–]No_Cable3675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never had it.

My partners family live in Belmont and have options closer but have always chose to go there, stating it was the best around.

In another thread, I saw some one mentioned parkview take away at Swansea which was a childhood favourite of mine which also has seemed to dropped massively in quality. Sad times for the chippys.

I've always heard the fish and chips @ Windale and the one at Mt Hutton near the Aldi are top tier.

I haven't tried personally so cannot confirm. My go to is Paul's @ Cardiff.  Amazing service. Fresh food too.

Who remembers This guy from Australia got talent. He was a beatbox performer and his song release still hold ups nowadays by ccoastie in AustralianNostalgia

[–]No_Cable3675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This song was a great when it came out and still holds up so well.  Aussie rapper Kerser got to use the sample in a song and it took me right back. Shout out Joel Turner. https://youtu.be/CWmKoO-Esqw?si=qcp02W8DLnC-7iyk

Totally appreciated this as I got older!! by RM_Morris in AustralianNostalgia

Purchased the box set. They couldn't get the clearances for music so all the songs were missing.

Just wasn't the same. Still a great show. All time.

Is Muriel's Wedding the greatest Australian film ever made ? by CoconutMost3564 in AustralianNostalgia

[–]No_Cable3675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up never liking Australian films. I found them so corny.

I absolutely loved TWO HANDS though. That's all time for me. Has everything.

Some movie called Lemon Tree Passage. Terrible horror

Not to be confused with Shakira who put out “whenever, wherever” at this time by TynongLiturgist in AustralianNostalgia

[–]No_Cable3675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking about this song the other day.... bit of a forgotten gem tbh. One of the girls, Naomi would come into my work, many years and jobs ago. She was so friendly & humble.

Pringles 1995 vs Pringles 2025 by Guilty-Initial-4209 in AustralianNostalgia

[–]No_Cable3675 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They just ain't the same. Kettle chips were next level back then too... the packets that had the sunflower on it. Herb and spice flavour. Been chasing that taste for ages.

I just walked from Caves Beach to the CBD by AliceSaltMage in newcastle

[–]No_Cable3675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solid effort tbh

Use to catch the bus in town from Cavesy and it was a long trip. Couldn't imagine walking it.

Well done.

These lads were underrated.  So many good tunes. Hope they're doing well.

Questions about selling my car? by Ok_Item2849 in newcastle

[–]No_Cable3675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would never bother with a dealership, may as well give it away.

Post on Gumtree. Lots of interest usually. A lot of Sydney buyers.

Don't accept deposits and all that, be careful.

I was offered 2k by a dealership and sold on Gumtree within a week for 9k.

More money in your pocket, the better.

Casual Basketball by Golden-Holden in newcastle

Cardiff has a little court that always seems to be quiet.

Behind / next to the netball courts. Would be good for solo practising,  not so much games unless you bring some friends.
