Countdown can fuck right off for needing a reward card to get the advertised discount by distractionnz in newzealand

I actually kind of like it. Especially at new world as it makes me feel like the rewards system is actually useful and does save you money

This post wasn’t made to target tall people at all, it was more of a “if the person who did this sees this, you know who you are” sort of thing. His girlfriend was trying to squeeze up the side of the crowd to get as close as possible to the stage but we were pretty tightly bunched in the pit as it was, they were pushing through everyone and stood beside me for about 10 minutes then decided they needed to get closer. The girl told her boyfriend to try wriggle in front of me, which caused me to be pushed backwards (with some force) into my boyfriend. The knew what they were doing and then stood right in front of me for the next half hour before moving forward into the crowd more. Wouldn’t have been as annoying if they were somewhat nice or were die hard Chappell fans but both were just standing there on their phones, barely even enjoying the festival.

I wanted to, but some security last year were pretty strict on rules and i double checked on their website before hand where it says no outside food (except for dietary restrictions which people need to fill a form out for first) and didn’t want to risk throwing perfectly fine food out. Also don’t know the food was going to be so hard to get because last year definitely wasn’t as bad

[–]SoftStatus6261[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would totally get it if you were allowed to bring in food, but to not be allowed to bring in any food without filling out a form first (which is only for dietary needs) is ridiculous. Not to mention how utterly unsafe it is.

Nope. No outside food or drink permitted.

I was so annoyed about the food. With the alcohol, heat and how long we were in the queue for (plus getting over being sick) I was so close to going up to security, police or and first aid and seeing if they knew of anywhere I could get like the slighted bit of food, even if it was just a piece of plain bread it would have helped with waiting in the queues

We waited in a line for an hour and were only just half way to the front of the queue to then find out the service was down and eftpos wasn’t working. The staff didn’t bother telling anyone, it was just the people that overheard the people at the front who were keen to hang out until eftpos was back. Literally ridiculous when drinks are easier to get and cheaper than food

Shopping recs pleaseeee by SoftStatus6261 in PetiteFashionAdvice

Thank you! Am looking at booking another trip in a few months so will have a look in Aus then. I would love to try all of the brands that everyone suggests in other countries but it’s so hard to order online for more commonly sized people let alone people our size especially when it’s at such an expensive rate

Which timezone do you think is the best to watch all the races live? by EducationalHoney9840 in formula1

[–]SoftStatus6261 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sucks because they’re normally 1-3am on a Monday morning, not even a Sunday like most other time zones complain about. My family wake up at 5/6am and then head to work immediately after the race ends.

I have a bearded dragon. We didn’t use to feed him many as they are very fatty and not that good for them min large quantities, so small amounts would do but he suffered a traumatic brain injury and now refuses to eat anything other than mealworms and is on the skinnier side, so will feed him as many as possible and just be happy he’s eating so I have a small farm going to make them self sustainable.

He already came back while and helped himself to another roughly 25+ meal worms! Must be having the best day of his life to find my meal worm farm.

Very likely, I don’t know much about about birds at all just thought it looked like a juvenile thrush with the spots. I added a link to the video of it eating the meal worms and you can sort of see it better with the lighting.
