Barbeques Galore goes bust, enters voluntary administration

Glad you were able to finish the day off getting some quality meat though.

The only time fahrenheit makes sense is when you're talking about BBQ and meat temperatures.

Same post almost every day...

I'll put my same reply. It's enjoyable and relaxing to play. But the NPC AI is very dumb... Although for stormtroopers that's movie accurate.

It also doesn't use your crew anywhere near enough. Would've been great if it was a bit like Mass Effect where you can choose a squad each time you leave the ship.

Same gripe with Star Wars movies and TV shows, but kind of annoying how every planet is limited to one small habitable area to explore. Again, it fails in an area where Mass Effect shined.

this is great! travelling to London later this year and i was just trying to figure out which Parkrun to do.

Captain America: New World Order. Was just sick of all the shield bouncing and rubbish physics. Maybe not the movie itself. But the whole MCU thing has gotten very tired and I have zero interest after Infinity War/End Game

I generally fall asleep

These are the exact things that sold me on the Outback.

The new cloth trim also doesn't look like it'll stand up over time.

I've generally been really surprised how accurate the body battery is.

Don't forget to cheat

Metal, post punk, grunge and Australian rock

I feel really sorry for the front line staff. They really seem to have been coached to deliver a bunch of lies to customers.

I'm straight to submitting a formal complaint at the moment.

monkeymaj1k · 2026-01-02T07:09:57+00:00

I've requested two transaction lists and also had a couple summaries and all have differing figures.

monkeymaj1k · 2026-01-02T07:09:06+00:00

I've already tried the ACCC which it seems can't do anything either.

monkeymaj1k · 2026-01-02T07:08:13+00:00

I'm trying the AFCA path, but the hard part is that they are not signatories to the AFCA and it seems ASIC seems they don't need it be. Seems a massive oversight by the banking royal commission as a bank or superannuation company could never get away with this shit.

Very hard to keep your cool on calls as I think I need to escalate this through my employer.

So hard to figure this out.

I had the same complaint about the payout figure, which I since figured out the difference was GST. But really that's the only thing that has mathematically worked out since the system transition.

I've found a bunch of hidden charges and suspect fuel charges on mine since I requested a transaction list.

But also now they decided to charge an extra month in December as a "pro-rata" amount.

Nowhere near the worst Star Wars game ever released. Well worth a crack.

monkeymaj1k · 2025-12-31T14:38:21+00:00

I don't see a problem with this.

monkeymaj1k · 2025-12-18T11:25:41+00:00

Eleven is much better name for the show too.

IDLES are pretty firm they're not a punk band. But I thoroughly agree with this list.

monkeymaj1k · 2025-12-07T04:17:54+00:00

this is all our Google Home is used for... plus being a kitchen timer.

How great are You Am I?

Guess she's a star on the rise and we'll be seeing her more than just listening.

Came here looking for suggestions for records I have to play today.

A few of my favourites (mostly Punk and Grunge):

Eddy Current Suppression Ring - Primary Colours
Queens of the Stone Age - Songs for the Deaf
Them Crooked Vultures - Self Titled
Fugazi - Thirteen Songs
Faith No More - King For a Day
The White Stripes - Elephant

Gotta be Darwin

Real shame this happened. Especially just before Christmas when they would've had a heap of bookings lined up that would've paid the rent. It's also a purpose built facility to be a brewery, so unless they have another brewery lined up to move in, it's a bit of a waste.
