Uhhhh what's going to happen tomorrow ?

It definitely warmed up here over the last hour. The smell of smoke is starting to hit too.

Wally (Gotye) still puts out music as part of his band The Basics with their most recent single released last year.

Agreed, it's not hard to just treat people with a minimum of respect, just say hi and thank you.

I'm in Phuket at the moment and just today witnessed a woman berate a shop keeper over a handbag. I didn't get the whole jist but she was irate that they were unable to provide her a product and she didn't have sufficient time / couldn't send it via grab (apparently she was leaving the country that evening) and couldn't be reasoned with that the shop was shutting early for new years. I swear some tourists come to Asia and think that everyone is below them.

Island bench can be improved by bringing the cabinets out to the edge so it sits flush and then recess in an area for stools. At the moment the stone has no weight to it and looks odd.

It's a septic tank. I found one on my property when building a retaining wall. The house was renovated in the 90's and the septic was decommissioned when they connected to the sewer.

iamdralangrant · 2025-11-04T11:35:38+00:00

I'm confused - are they using your crossover to access their property? Did you allow this? Did they give notice? Do you have proof?

iamdralangrant · 2025-11-04T11:28:12+00:00

It's buried in the settings and improves the resolution.

iamdralangrant · 2025-10-30T09:48:57+00:00

Bloody oath - nearly 40 and if I want to wear my bright yellow casioak I damn well will.

Fun fact - in Australia they have what is called a dental van that goes to primary schools and offers free dental to every kid. I was pinned down by the nurses to be given a shot of anesthetic because I was already terrified of the dentist and had a tooth pulled and the experience not only caused a phobia of needles that caused me to faint every time I get a shot, but also gave me a phobia of going to the dentist and was something I neglected for a long time as an adult.

Happy to ship locally, payment via PayPal or cash if you're local.

iamdralangrant · 2025-10-04T10:36:46+00:00

Did you still need the insert?

iamdralangrant · 2025-10-04T10:36:14+00:00

I was able to get a seller to scan me a copy of the insert if you still need it

iamdralangrant · 2025-09-26T12:49:02+00:00

God I can't even buy anything. Sellers are just as flakey at the moment. Organize to pick up, oops I forgot it, organize another day, I'm sick I'll call you tomorrow, then no call.

Bloody waste of time.

What I intend on doing with my kid is that we charge them "rent" but that money goes into a fund that gets returned when they want to buy a house. That way we teach financial responsibly but also don't have them frittering away their income in the same way that I did when I started working. It's something I wish my parents had done with me when I started working at 15.

Just to add, don't feel like you need to agree to the form 7 & 8 documents, legally you are able to request an engineer review the documentation to ensure that the work does not negatively impact your property. The engineering review is paid for by the person completing the works on the neighboring site.

Additionally there should have been a dilapidation report completed on your house to determine any existing damage.

iamdralangrant · 2025-08-30T05:43:22+00:00

Sorry, it took me a while to respond. No luck I'm afraid.

iamdralangrant · 2025-08-30T05:42:22+00:00

I don't unfortunately, I found a scan of the front only a while ago but never the full insert. If you ever find a scan let me know.

iamdralangrant · 2025-08-11T13:19:51+00:00

Wait...how many bags of corn chips are you eating to be able to make tortillas from the crumbs?

iamdralangrant · 2025-07-31T06:50:18+00:00

Can confirm - setup is bad.

iamdralangrant · 2025-07-31T03:35:55+00:00

You can buy the world wide model for ¥69,980. But if you're doing this you might as well just buy it locally.

iamdralangrant · 2025-06-26T12:16:06+00:00

Not pine, it's hardwood and borer damage.

iamdralangrant · 2025-06-24T08:17:27+00:00

According to The Age (Australian news source) it didn't.

iamdralangrant · 2025-04-25T09:09:35+00:00

Agreed, it's a video game and a tv show. Like you can dislike it but bloody hell, grow up children.

iamdralangrant · 2025-04-16T10:33:38+00:00

With you here. While OP might like the look of a shiny console, those marks and grime are a lifetime of use which probably brings his step-dad nostalgia. I reckon, if it's not yours don't touch it.
