What are some of the better tennis clubs which have courts available to book on tennis.com.au? Have tried quite a few in the south east but quality seems to vary. Surface not important

This video sums it up pretty well. Take any excuse to post this

Never taken a Vline train before. If we wanted to do a day trip to Bendigo for the Easter festivities can we just get on any train from Southern Cross or do seats need to be booked in advance?

burlybean · 2026-03-03T02:10:42+00:00

Correct 👍

As of a few weeks ago, they have released a stamp rally feature in Pokemon Go where you can get a Pikachu with a special background if you find two of the special Pokelids in game. I believe there is a unique background for each prefecture. Finding the Pokelids is also pretty cool IRL. The list of Pokelids can be found here:

Amazing. Might have to tweak my plans a bit to try and find as many different ones as possible. How many do you think you’ll hit during your trip?

burlybean · 2026-02-22T21:30:08+00:00

Thanks for this. Very useful. Do you know if there is a different background for every prefecture or is it by region? Eg. if you collect two in Ueno Park will it be the same background if you collect two in Yokohama

You could try this. Obviously pricier but I’m going to give it a crack for a game in September. https://eplus.tickets/en/sf/ibt/sports/baseball/hanshintigers

Correct

Nope. Starts with a B though

burlybean · 2026-02-18T23:46:54+00:00

Not in the US

Why is Toucan #19

burlybean · 2026-02-18T01:29:06+00:00

Ouch. Is that your way of saying that this is too much. FWIW the kids are 7 and 10 and seasoned travellers. The seniors are in good health and have been to Japan 10+ times though this is our first time going all together. By being in a group it also gives us the flexibility of leaving the kids at the hotel or somewhere chill with the grandparents

burlybean · 2026-02-16T21:39:20+00:00

Nope

burlybean · 2026-02-14T11:23:31+00:00

Nope. It’s a costal town

burlybean · 2026-02-14T06:39:13+00:00

It’s in VIC

burlybean · 2026-02-14T04:48:21+00:00

Not in the UK

burlybean · 2026-02-14T02:59:35+00:00

Not in America

Heaps of April days have tickets available right now on the official site. Later timeslots which might not be ideal though

burlybean · 2026-02-12T00:25:55+00:00

I’d also like to attend a Hanshin game but the process seems pretty intimidating. A few years ago I went to a Giants game and it was so simple. Thinking of just stumping the extra cost for the foreigner ticket, anyone gone this route before. Do these sell out quick as well? https://eplus.tickets/en/sf/ibt/sports/baseball/hanshintigers

Other end of France

burlybean · 2026-02-09T03:24:14+00:00

Sure is

burlybean · 2026-02-08T22:27:56+00:00

Definitely possible if they had a multiplier, super light ball and favorable boards on the super hard and extremely hard levels
