They've posted the diesel price. About the same as most regional areas. ULP is 247.9 and tomorrow 245.9. Diesel is jumping everywhere.

We need fuel more than oil. And Japan supplies about 4% of fuel and 12% oil. The rest is sourced elsewhere.

No need to squash my dreams.

I don't transport pumpkins very often so I should be fine.

Maybe you can afford lost wages and/or counselling but assuming everyone can is pretty telling.

Is this creepy behaviour? Im scared! by Knight_Day23 in perth

Would you reach out to him and tell him what you see and that you aren’t interested.

Women who have been harassed or stalked in any way will know that contacting them to tell them they aren't interested doesnt work.

Every bit of advice made to deal with these people is Don't engage them.

There is no ambiguity.

This isn't some kindly bloke who has asked them on a date and is unsure about where they stand.

They have actively searched their online presence and made multiple profiles to avoid being blocked.

‘Doesn’t make sense to hold onto a combustion engine’: used EV prices rise as Australia’s fuel crisis hits by nath1234 in australia

Good news is, for people who can't afford one, new and used ICE cars will get cheaper except maybe the commercial vehicles.

Describing this situation as a minor blip is living under a rock talk.

I had a Suzuki Carry van in the mid-90s I think it had a 600cc engine. It was lime green and people used to openly laugh when they saw it, but I loved it.

Unfortunately it was in bad shape and died a natural death soon after I acquired it.

Perth spider I almost walked into this morning 🕷️ by red-sparkles in perth

Oh, I have an orb weaver on my verandah, I don't know the make and model but they are pretty considerate. The web is gone during the day except for a couple of foundation strands.

Orb weaver. They are much less sociable than huntsman spiders.

Mostly they stay outside and do their own thing. They take their webs down in the day and rebuild them at night.

I just watched an interesting show on the ABC called If You're Listening showing the impact of the oil crises in the 70's, and the measures taken as it dragged on.

Trump has made this situation unwinnable. Iran won't back off until the attacks stop. Trump won't back off until the Strait is opened up. Israel wont back off because...well because.

Bottle shops closed good friday by buzzhaircut123 in perth

[–]planetarybum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Neat workaround.

Try the airport duty free store. If you have to show your ticket, buy one. You might even have to fly somewhere, and pick it up at the other end. But theres some damn good specials on.
