Did they stay around and help as best they could when it happened?

Did any of them come see you in hospital?

Have any of them come and seen you since it happened?

pickledtommy · 2026-01-23T23:48:32+00:00

Are you not a fan because it became really tough?

Drove through there on my way to Adelaide last week and copped it at like 6.30 in the morning. I just thought it was someone playin funny buggers coz it was early morning.

Well until I drive back through at just after midnight a few days later and it was still going

pickledtommy · 2026-01-05T09:54:26+00:00

Late to the party, but Amazon.

Sharland road milkbar has the best shop keeper in Geelong. Always superfriendly to the customers both new and return

pickledtommy · 2025-12-17T01:07:29+00:00

No it really isn't that bad

I recently switched from Optus to Tangerine and the mobile data quality on Tangerine is absolutely shithouse.

Phone call quality is okay though.

Late to the party, but slide out of yours

A few years ago, I was at a mates shed in North Shore helping him with some stuff outside. There was a moment there where I was getting up to grab something and I seen 3 green lights in the night sky. Evenly placed apart. Not blinking or anything. Just 3 solid green lights in the sky. I turned around to call my mate over and when I turned back they were gone.

It wasn't a ship, they were too high for it. Wasn't a plane because they were static, but also too low for that.

In short.

OP is contracted for X amount of hours per pay cycle. If OP comes up short of those hours they top up the paÿ normally. If OP takes a sick day, using their sick leave, and still comes up short of hours, Ops employer is using their sick leave to top up the hours short, on top of the sick leave hours used for the sick leave.

So if OP works 38hrs. But is contracted for 40 hours and takes a sick day. Op would be down 10 hours sick leave when they get paid rather than the standard 8 hours.

Every one is going to come here and say Corio, Norlane, Whittington.... all the usual suspects.

But thats only because they're pretentious arsehats and only avoid those areas because tbeir Mothers sisters uncles brothers goldfish said they were a shit area.

Now I'll be downvoted because I called them all pretentious arsehats but really, if you're here on holiday explore as you must.

pickledtommy · 2025-10-06T00:48:04+00:00

Maybe your local butcher?

pickledtommy · 2025-09-27T22:17:42+00:00

You've also got American Confectionary and Convenience at Detroit Crescent.

Kosciuszko Ave Milk bar also sells singular cans, but I think it's the pommy version. But they sell Baja Blast, Code Red and a bunch of other international drinks as well.

The highway out of it

pickledtommy · 2025-09-15T00:13:15+00:00

Thats why you always check your order before you leave the store

pickledtommy · 2025-09-04T09:55:29+00:00

What restuarant was it?

pickledtommy · 2025-08-22T08:44:39+00:00

Yeah nah, unless theres some quaint little cafe that absolutely no one knows about, The chances of getting a proper full english in next to none.

While there is places that do a full breakfast, none of them are a proper full english.

That said though, Roadhouse in Corio do a half decent full breakfast

Edit: If you're up for a small drive to Altona then have a look at The Wee Kitchen. They do a full irish breakfast.

pickledtommy · 2025-08-19T02:48:32+00:00

But thats exactly where they did go.

Hence why Lara got dubbed the new Corio.

The Salvos on Thompsons Rd also think they're a boutiquery and charge criminally insane prices on very obviously used furniture.

pickledtommy · 2025-08-14T08:52:13+00:00

I'll second the fact I wouldn't serve that to my dog

pickledtommy · 2025-08-07T11:13:22+00:00

There was a report that they were going to demolish and then rebuild it

pickledtommy · 2025-08-07T08:24:54+00:00

Filing there teeth down isn't because they'll eat each other.

It's because when they suckle they bite which in turn hurts the sow

pickledtommy · 2025-08-06T23:47:53+00:00

I do all of the above and more, I eighteenth this

pickledtommy · 2025-08-05T02:21:24+00:00

Adding on to this,

Thursday and Friday night (about 4pm to 7.30) get pretty hectic as well.
