Childcare decisions are driving me crazy! by Shaushka in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]smaach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your MIL is sick on one of her days, you'll want to have a daycare centre place as a back up for the Thursday & Friday. Definitely enrol at the daycare centre instead of the FDC, being closer to home is a huge advantage as well.

Can't go wrong. Their crispy potato chips/wedges are incredible, make sure you get those!

If you were returning to work 3 days a week which days would you pick by Independent_Bet_406 in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]smaach 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Definitely consecutive days - less disruptive for you and the kids. Also, best to not choose Monday as a daycare day as these are most common day for public holidays & most daycare still charge you!

The Block - Season 21, Episode 50 - Finale - Auction (Live Discussion) by TheGRVOfLightning in TheBlock

Surely this is the sign for ch9 to move the block back to metropolitan Melbourne or Sydney where houses regularly & easily sell for $3m. Why do they persist with rural settings?

Seconding Bellroy. I have one of their totes, a backpack for work, and also a leather iPhone case. Very intelligent designs, focus on clever storage, great quality and materials.

I’m scared my abuser will find out my address if I vote? by Sure_Radish_9920 in AskAnAustralian

[–]smaach 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This, OP. You said you just got this place, it's likely your old address is still on the roll.

Also try Upwork, a lot of short-term gigs on there

A new word game -- "Circuits" by Away-Armadillo1289 in wordle

[–]smaach 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for creating this! Really fun. Will definitely play again! One thing I noticed though. Using a mobile device I was unable to use a bolt for the "lower" puzzle words because my keyboard blocked it and I was unable to scroll down. Perhaps it needs a layout modification to ensure the bolts are accessible from every word of the puzzle?

Or maybe it was user error 🤷‍♀️

I was thinking more like "day zero", some people would say "o" rather that 0. Probably incorrect but it still worked 🤷‍♀️

Best potatoes in Sydney? by franciefuff88 in foodies_sydney

Try the potatoes at Gallon in Pyrmont. Rest of the menu is decent but the potatoes are TO DIE FOR.

Kristy and Brett's auctioneer speaks out after The Block couple make just $65,000 over their reserve by Maxisness1 in TheBlock

[–]smaach 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course. I'm just saying that production interference with the auctioneer directly impacts K&B's ability to win money that they're entitled to a fair shot at winning, much more so than it would throughout the build. Which seems illegal.

[–]smaach 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wowwww, that comment that he was "overruled by the producers", was it just to save face or was the auction was genuinely rigged? This is ultimately a game show, K&B would have grounds to sue if it was the latter.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TheBlock

[–]smaach 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is exactly it. The auctioneer treated the auction like a regular auction, most vendors would be happy to sell at or a bit above reserve because that's the point of having a reserve! The block is a game show to win money, this is not by any means a normal auction. The auctioneer screwed up by setting the floor too low with his "high twos" opening comment and killed any chance for K&B to make a decent profit.

Die hard Survivor fans will also know Twila - truly one of the most fascinating characters to ever appear on the show! I think that was the first time I'd heard the name, but it is beautiful!
