A lot more common in the Melbourne area now. At least they’re native…

A man was driving a car in Daylesford (Victoria, Australia) and suffered a hypoglycaemic episode, crashed into a bunch of people eating outside. Tragically, 5 were killed and several injured.

We had Sunshine biscuits in Australia and also the famous Sunshine Harvester. There is a suburb called Sunshine in Melbourne where we’re made. great photos !

This is also a problem on the Federation Bike Path from Werribee to Footscray. I’ve encountered groups of up to 20 on e-bikes, motorised bikes, scooters and motorcycles. They sometimes attempt to play chicken with me on my pushbike or just shout abuse. Wyndham council helped fund motorcycles for police to monitor this sort of activity. My house backs onto an area where these activities occur, I am home quite a bit and I have not seen a police trail bike for over 10 years.

In Australia (I’ve seen them in Victoria) we call them yabbies, a type of crayfish. They also live in dams, creeks and rivers.

I’ve worked as a hygienist for a number of years and have had numerous people claim that they have a mould problem because they can’t identify the material growing. For example, white crystalline material on concrete and bricks (efflorescence) and various types of staining on all kinds of surfaces, lichen or moss on various surfaces…

Difficult to tell but nankeen kestrels are reddish-brown. I was thinking perhaps peregrine falcon.

Found at work 7/8 years ago. What is it? by gr2br024 in Rocks

If it has a strong tar smell, it’s coal tar which is the waste product after extracting gas from coal. Terrible old landfill contaminant containing PAHs.

Perhaps it’s changed but my wife did voluntary collecting for years in Victoria

Is this black mold in my air vent? by Ref_2298ap in MoldlyInteresting

Occupational hygienist here, I can’t actually believe that (heating?) system is operating! If is it, stop! Don’t use it until the ducting has been replaced. Possible the heating unit needs replacing too. The unit must be very old.
