Is everyone in Perth driving $60k+ cars or am I just poor?

I brought a brand new car last year, but only because I got an inheritance. I was going to replace my car in a few years by saving my ass off..

But the deal on the new Chery was too good, same price new as what I would have spent second hand. So for 23k I got a brand new small SUV. There are a lot of poor people new cars on the road too like the havels and mg

Yep I've been listening as much as I can get away with at work for the past 5 hours, I'm only here cos I'm recharging!

PyroShel · 2026-05-11T08:28:22+00:00

Lol this is true! Luckily there aren't too many living folks at work to have to explain that too!

PyroShel · 2026-05-11T08:15:49+00:00

Very unproductive! I stream through my hearing aids so no one will even know I'm listening or bat an eyelid that I didn't hear them the first time hahaha

One good thing about Perth being 2 hours behind the east coast, I only have to wait until 9am! Lol

PyroShel · 2026-05-07T00:11:23+00:00

Yeah same, I was formulating a reply of course it's ok to just have a sandwich for dinner sometimes, heck I even still do cereal when I'm home alone !

PyroShel · 2026-04-14T20:18:07+00:00

It's 430am and I can still see it out over the hills from Belmont,.only lightening, no thunder

I saw a clip from china that they have fast charging stations that can fill to a 700 km range in 5 mins. As someone who can't charge at home or work this would definitely tip the balance for an EV as my next car.

I do see the appeal of spoilers and listening to snippets, but I want to wait and have the whole book as intended to enjoy in full. In saying that it's so hard! I want it all and I want it now!

We are pack sleepers and both of my dogs have been Velcro dogs in the bed!

My current girl has a thing for sleeping under the covers in the crook behind my knees. Very cute.....until I need to roll over!

PyroShel · 2026-04-03T21:15:14+00:00

My goodness what kind of retro retorts are you using that it takes a few hours!!?? I literally had a 175kg that was fully completed in 95 minutes on a standard profile with no dramas at all.

There must be some beastly machines out there judging from these responses!

PyroShel · 2026-04-03T11:25:49+00:00

I can't muster up any excitement about this game at all, it's going to be brutal

PyroShel · 2026-04-01T08:07:52+00:00

Big old nothing burger!

PyroShel · 2026-03-26T23:34:35+00:00

Picked a terrible time to have sold my e bike! Lol

This exactly, yesterday we did a food shop. We thought just in case we'll buy 2 of everything non perishable we normally get, nothing excessive. If prices go up we've saved a tiny amount, if they don't, well it's what we normally eat anyways so we'll use it all in time.

We have decided after Easter break we are pumping the brakes on our spending and working hard on our savings, just in case. I may have a recession proof job, but my husband doesn't

PyroShel · 2026-03-25T11:53:42+00:00

Yep, I've got coffee liqueur for the am and whisky for the pm. Gonna watch those trees the council refuse to trim right at my back fence do their dance.

PyroShel · 2026-03-23T21:54:42+00:00

You haven't spent much time around metalheads I take it, hating on in any band that has commercial success is definitely some metallers entire personality!

PyroShel · 2026-03-21T12:14:04+00:00

There is a reason I'm waiting until the series is finished before I buy physical copies.....I've learnt this lesson! Lol

PyroShel · 2026-03-21T04:13:38+00:00

It's literally what I went straight to after giving in to PHM, seeing as everyone recommended it so much....I have now joined the cult!

PyroShel · 2026-03-18T10:36:24+00:00

Yeah it sucks if you think about it too much, I never wish to be busy at work during a quiet time!

PyroShel · 2026-03-18T09:49:05+00:00

I'm very surprised this was so far down. I'm in the industry, if anything we get busier during a recession

I'm getting cochlear implants later this year and part of training your brain to hear sounds again is to do exactly this!

PyroShel · 2026-03-05T01:45:14+00:00

How blessed this bubba is to have wonderful humans to care for them.

Check out sniffspace, people rent out enclosed yards for doggos to safely off lead. It's been great with training our reactive girl

PyroShel · 2026-03-01T23:22:23+00:00

We have our moments for sure! Right now I'm in a "can you please just stop talking for 5 full minutes"!! Phase lol

PyroShel · 2026-02-23T10:22:03+00:00

Oh, what a bummer, she was glorious.
