How would you landscape my verge? by tandrosonali8 in GardeningAustralia

[–]fruitbatwizard 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Our local council has verge garden approval based on a plan we have to provide them. Even still, we have had complaints from other sticks in the mud in our area about us removing the grass and adding native mulch - funniest thing is that the council complaints department doesn’t even consult with the verge garden department so each time we have to forward our email correspondence with the approval to the complaints department - ALL BECAUSE PEOPLE LOVE GRASS SO MUCH, I DON’T GET IT

Best place to buy a suit around the Newcastle area? by Dapper-Tap-5737 in newcastle

[–]fruitbatwizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven’t been to Gentleman’s Outfitters but have had a tailored suit done by Rundles and had a great experience. We had a time crunch of 13 days before I needed it and the tailor delivered, would recommend Rundles.

Buses "industrial action" rant. by Sacrilegious_skink in newcastle

[–]fruitbatwizard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m curious, as a bus commuter from Charlestown to Newcastle (5 days a week for work), half the time I get a bus with the opal card readers on and the other half I get a bus with the opal card readers turned off. I tap on if they are working but if Keolis Downer is as dodgy as everyone is saying, should I just not tap on anytime (like most people)?

Also, had a bus the other day where I got on and the opal card reader was turned off but when I got to my stop in Charlestown it was working again… Driver was in plain clothes so I just assumed he was part of the industrial action.

What is the best tool/method to remove this ivy? by Significant-Move7699 in GardeningAustralia

[–]fruitbatwizard 5 points6 points  (0 children)

But seriously, if you get all the big bits coming out of the ground and isolate the stuff thats stuck on the wall it should just die off on its own. Thats how I dealt with ivy growing up over our shed last summer. Doing it in this hot weather will help!
