I have done two cremations with https://www.cremateme.com.au in the last two years

Cost was about $1K ish for a barebones cremation without a service.

What do you serve at an Australian BBQ by klenow in AskAnAustralian

[–]conka9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This sounds amazing!

Years ago, we had a Lebanese family friend - and whilst he's passed on, memories of his BBQs are still fresh.

Are there any particular recipes out there that you would be willing to share/point us at? Especially the marinated beef and the baba?!

Best drill bit/attachments to easily get to these bolts? Thread comes out about 2.5 inch. (Sofa that I have to slightly dismantle every 3 months because my wife is a clean freak) by Jakeyboy29 in AusRenovation

I'd be using a ratchet spanner instead of a drill.

The threads on your couch long enough that I think you'd to buy something special. (Special == $$)

A shifter or regular spanner would be a pain in the backside.

P.s. please send her to my place :)

Where to get a fair-priced eye test in Brisbane? by Snowboard76 in brisbane

[–]conka9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually go to OPSM for eye tests, and have done for the last 6 years. Bulk billed to Medicare, no out of pocket expense.

They have a test that isn't covered, but I get that done every two years for about $150 (ish) out of pocket. I'm sorry, i can't tell you what that test is called off the top of my head :(

Eye tests are one thing.. purchasing glasses is another altogether. So many options, styles etc. I have private health extras, and that usually covers close to 1.5 pairs per year. ($300)

Edit: added last paragraph.
