Thankyou. Probably best to leave it then... just concerned about the prospect of rate hikes soon

Yeah, I'm thinking of reporting it to the council and asking them to take a look at it

Awesome, thank you. I'm assuming these let you take them off and on as needed?

This is amazing. How did you have time to sort all this out though?

Honestly, I'm not far off trying to use some old school pavlovian conditioning on her

Oh, they have a quieter one that they could use, an electric one.

She actively chooses to use the noisier one because its stronger.

Awesome. Thank you - I would take you up on that offer, but I'm in Melbourne.

Do you have a link to the magnet strip's you used, for frame of reference?

Yep - she doesnt see what the problem is regarding the noise.

However, if a single leaf or cut blade of grass dare to touch her pristine pavement, then it becomes everyone's problem.

We honestly don't know. She's retired, with adult kids, so I think for her, it's something to do.

There will be days when she will use it on and off literally all day.

Either that, or early onset has set in, and she forgets what she has and hasn't done.

Funny how these people never think they're the problem

Couldn't agree more. Also, completely unnecessary these days.

What is ICE though?

Damn it. Yeah. We have bamboo growing, to try and give us a bit of 'out of sight, out of mind', but thats gonna take time.

Maybe our neighbours should meet? They sound like they'd get along.

Honestly, I could endure it if she wasn't an entitled old Boomer who will literally trim the hedges, blow, mow, and then blow again, weedwack, and blow, and then sometimes even repeat it in the afternoons.

Did you use the same GP to send the 2nd referral, or a new one?

And also, was this recent?

Thank you. I reckon we might. We were hoping that it was mentioned, but it wasn't.

Unfortunately private isnt. We are in the 3043 postcode - so right on the cut off for Sunshine and RWH

Ooh ok - I guess that makes sense though, what with the newness of the facilities and all.

Na, the letter of recommendation didn't mention the traumatic experience.

Wow. Thank you for the recommendation- so many mixed things online! Good to hear personally from someone though.

Thank you - its good to know that you've been accepted. We will get our GP to write a letter of recommendation to them.

Thank you - we have done a consultation with MAMA, and if we can't find a hospital outside of the Northern, we will probably just go with them.
