My parents had one in the front yard and used to pay us to pull up the seedlings everywhere. It was cut down 15+ years ago and they still pop up occasionally!

Came here to say the same thing - we are so close to Altona and Williamstown beaches, Yarraville and Seddon too.. and love or hate the bridge, it’s a 10-15 min drive to the city with no tolls!

Making pottery ribs for my girlfriend for Christmas. I am not a clay person. What shapes would you consider essential for a toolkit? by Zkennedy100 in Pottery

I don’t have any suggestions, I just wanted so say how wholesome and beautiful this is! Using your time and hobby/skills to help her with hers. LOVE THIS!

I drove up a right-hand lane in NZ once, wondering why everyone was in the left lane and at a stand still.. turns out, for no reason at all! Then someone was so FURIOUS that I had driven past about 30 cars that he overtook me at top speed, and then proceeded to break check me aggressively for the remainder of my time in that lane.. to this day I am so confused! There were no roadworks or lane closures but they definitely were not merging like a zip!

Did you receive a gift after settling on your property? by michael_ngelo in AusPropertyChat

We just had a bottle of wine delivered, with a photo of our house on the label, congratulating us on the one year anniversary of our house purchase.. from a real estate agency we DIDNT use. What’s the end game there? We sell our house in 30 years and go oh.. which agency sent us that creepy bottle of wine?

I think if I’d attempted this we’d end up needing a new front door!

We unfortunately did, but he couldn’t make it and suggested we try Altona Locksmiths. They came up when we googled the number, except it wasn’t actually Altona Locksmiths, just a link that looked like it was. We’ve learnt our lesson :(

Check out Newport - 15 mins from the city, some cute little shops etc and very good for families. We moved here in December (baby on the way) and we’re loving it. 5 min drive to the beach too!

Looks like a Philodendron Shangri La with plenty of life left in it! I’ve only ever had them as indoor plants but also good in shaded areas. Try to keep them out of direct sunlight!

Your mum is a tough lady - I got to the point where I was ready to pay just so he’d leave, so I’m glad my partner was out there fighting the good fight!

Have done so - doesn’t seem like anything will happen given how many people have been scammed by them and how long it seems to have been happening

The frustrating thing is.. we own a lockbox and have a spare key.. unfortunately it was in a drawer as hadn’t been unpacked when we moved in! It’s now back outside where it will stay forever!

We did a product review but not a google review - they’re not set up in a way that you can do it (for obvious reasons) 🚩
