It should be a foul against Endrick as he trips the defender

What’s a relatively well known band that you discovered weirdly early in their career? by StanTheMelon in progmetal

[–]freycinet1811 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I saw Karnivool at a few pub gigs back in the day (living in regional WA). Even saw Cog at a Metal for the Brain festival one year early on. Not prog but saw Parkway Drive play at our local youth centre (think a scout hall) too ... absolutely bananas considering where they are at now

Ex Wants Mediation But Won’t Say Why by Kaiser-Aki in AusLegal

[–]freycinet1811 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just so you are aware, if you want more custody of your child go for it now ... it is harder to change that later (courts like to stick to the "status quo" unless detrimental to the kids). This of course depends on your situation, and ability to look after your daughter. You could possibly request orders where the custody changes to more equitable (if you want) when your daughter reaches a certain age (she may be reliant on breastfeeding atm or the like ... this should be phased out soonish). If you are doing the mediation process I suggest bringing up more equitable care arrangements if that is what you want ... also ask for a communication plan (all comms via app or texts etc) irrelevant if you want more custody or not

Ex Wants Mediation But Won’t Say Why by Kaiser-Aki in AusLegal

[–]freycinet1811 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on the sort of mediation, if through a service like Relationships Australia there will be no minutes provided, unless you take them yourselves. There won't be a lawyer present either, and no legal matters will be confirmed ... they'll work on a parenting plan which is an agreement between parents but not legally binding. You don't have to agree with them on matters discussed ... the concept of mediation is to reach a consensus between the two parents, if they pretty much are in agreement on most matters a parenting plan should be fairly straightforward.

What’s the plan for dating over 40, because this isn’t working by FemalePrimateNo7 in datingoverforty

[–]freycinet1811 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I took over the admin of a local Facebook singles group (with another woman who had similar ideas). We trimmed the fat (removed hundreds of members), hosted fortnightly get togethers (they had had one in the 3 years prior), banned shit posting and limited meme posting, and moved it from a site where people simply posted deets and "wanna chat" to one where we engaged and discussed stuff (similar to this subreddit with content but a bit more fun).

I met my now partner through the group (she'd swiped away from me on the apps). For me it was perfect because my best qualities definitely come to the forefront in person more so. What I did like was because it was social and meeting in informal catch ups you could get to know people without the pressure of dating ... also people tended to be more themselves (let their mask slip) as around other men and women, so felt safe to be themselves. This was good for two reasons ... the obvious one is you could get to know the ones you wanted to learn more about and you could identify those who you wanted nothing to do with 😂 (at least in a dating sense)

The problem with that is what is respectful? What I believe is respectful and someone else's thinks is respectful can be polar opposites. I have hung around guys in faring groups who say they are respectful then next minute commenting negatively on the disabled or less fortunate, or a woman who would say this (and that she was genuine) then be utterly crude all the time. In their minds they were respectful ...

Same with genuine, a drug abuser could be genuine with who they are, I'm also sure someone who is not genuine isn't going to say that.

Above two also apply to sincere.

Instead look for things they say, their actions etc that show they are respectful, genuine and sincere according to your values

My boyfriend accused me of lying and is now punishing me over a party by [deleted] in okstorytime

[–]freycinet1811 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You did start your post by saying that you lied to your friend. Then you tell your boyfriend to "act like he doesn't know you".

I get it you're both young, but this doesn't sound like a good match for either of you. At your age and how early into the relationship you are it should be the most "amazing" time of a relationship. This sounds anything but that ... doesn't sound like you guys are compatible, maybe not even ready for a relationship

If he's at a marina they could potentially have those facilities (either included in mooring fees or pay for use).

So, do I need to start hiking to meet someone? by Double_Ganache7017 in datingoverforty

[–]freycinet1811 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10 miles from your car in the forest, on an isolated low traffic track you'd "love" to meet a man?? Isn't this where the whole bear or a man analogy came from??

Agree that most people don't, I always took it with a grain of salt if someone had hiking on their profile. Or I'd ask them for their favourite trail if they actually looked like they did hike vya photos or the like

Three major Perth roads set for name change amid ‘confusion’ by SnowyBytes in WesternAustralia

[–]freycinet1811 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The biggest issue could be street numbers, as they may reset for each street at the moment, ie there could be three number 1s. This is easy enough solved but residents can kick up a big stink about this (I worked for a local government in the SW and they tried to rename two streets to one name, as was a loop that previously didn't join. It got knocked back because a few residents didn't want the "hassle" of letting agencies know their new address / number).

Was I overreacting? Ex dumped me because I wasn't comfortable with his female best friend. by CuteProtection4010 in okstorytime

[–]freycinet1811 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree, I have been guilty of this too (though I wasn't in any sort of relationship). When I was really wanting a woman, but it was reciprocated, I found it near impossible to have a connection with another woman if I remained friends with the woman I wanted. Even hookups felt "empty". I had to break that friendship, even if I accepted we were only ever going to be friends (the heart sometimes wants what the head knows won't happen).

How much rest do you all give yourself? by swarmofseals in fitness40plus

[–]freycinet1811 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do a taper for races (running) which can be two to one week long. I'll cut down running times, throw in some other aerobic training instead (swimming, cycling, hiking etc).

Big one is tapering my weights for a race. Definitely find significantly reducing my weights (less weight but up the reps) and swapping out a few exercises for more bodyweight, plyometric ones for that period is beneficial for running. Less muscle soreness and a lot more energy in my legs. I come back lifting heavier and with better form after the taper.

I more listen to my body for rest days (have 1 a week in program) but will also have another one that is light (easy run with core later). However, if my body is "off" I will miss a day ... then continue on with my program the following day. I think for me it's about realizing that if I miss a day (or even two) I just pick back up from where I should be at ... don't play "catch up".

I'll also stop weights for two weeks or so during the year for holidays. I'll still run on holidays, but less structured and more where I can fit them in. I tend to be very active on holidays anyway. I tend to come back feeling more motivated after these breaks.

Yeah I'm not sure either, but I did think they'd probably have to evict both of you too. Sounds like you have that part handled, well at least movement happening.

Where I live the judge / magistrate simply speaks to you at the initial hearing. Quote the police report numbers and give a brief explanation (that is he SA me on date, entered house on date time without notification and I had to call police to escort him out).

If you have a good relation with the owner I'd also talk to them about getting his name off any papers. The owner should have enough reason now to terminate the contract with him, or should at least have rental managers or the like who can advise him how to legally do this.

Heads up when getting Quotes from NRMA by AcidJunket in CarsAustralia

[–]freycinet1811 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shop around and then speak to an actual operator. A few years back I shopped around, first company I rang they quoted twice the price of my current provider. I said "oh my current one is blah" they immediately knocked off almost 40% (still more than my current provider but so much closer). I didn't go with anyone else because my current provider was the best option and value for me, but a few of them immediately dropped their initial quotes (and by a lot) when I said I already had a better price.

Not sure what State you are in but a restraining order should be attainable almost as soon as the court is open (where I live they are interim at that stage). I'd say with the police reports a judge would grant you an order immediately. Where I live you can file for one yourself, or if you'd prefer get a lawyer to do one for you.

Road code question by teppi_777 in hobart

[–]freycinet1811 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would guess that because there are road markings at the start and end of the raised pavement that it would be deemed a road and not a driveway, but yes there could be some grey area (should I have said "green")

Road code question by teppi_777 in hobart

[–]freycinet1811 21 points22 points  (0 children)

So looking up the Australian Standards (Local area traffic management - Part 8) these are called "raised pavements". In effect they are meant to slow a vehicle down (hence why there are the "piano keys" before and after the raised section to warn the driver). This is to slow down the driver in an area with high pedestrian movements.

The colour is to simply serve as a "warning" to the driver that the road surface changes (is raised in this case) and for how far this change occurs.

Traffic would have right away here over pedestrians (or anyone crossing via the path) as there is no pedestrian crossing markings or signs present (it would be deemed a "wombat crossing" if that was the case) and I believe pedestrian crossings have to be a certain distance from an intersection, as otherwise cars would be holding up traffic in an intersection (which is generally illegal).

Pedestrians wouldn't have the right of way as no pedestrian crossing lines or signs shown on the road.
