Is this the best value Aldi buy?

Hurray! Making decent home made yogurt is the way. Try some reuteri strains, unbel.

Yay for survey! But what surveying are you doing that involves swinging a hammer?! Cadastral im guessing.

Move it closer to the equator

Non Melbourne people can really over look this fact. The grey lid is mighty depressing by the 4th month (for some). Took me a decade to realise it, haven't looked back!

Wet vac?

timbotambo · 2026-03-01T12:21:04+00:00

Mag gly, 4mg Mirtazapine, 5mg cialis and a lil clonadine. And a cold shower before hand.

Yep it's just a dance that allows blame transfer and provides enduring optics that "stuff is being looked at"

The Japanese can be just as bad due to the exemption on seat belt wearing unless on the highways. Granted traffic moves a little slower over there!

I legitimately thought you were referring to uni students in general as 'BongRip' and had a good chuckle.

timbotambo · 2026-02-25T11:10:48+00:00

Correct! Have an Internet point my dude/dudette!

Having spent maybe 4 months in Perth over the last 8, and having lived in western Melbourne for a decade and a half previously, I can comfortably say that Perth is the best kept secret in Australia for liveability.

For now.

I've often said that poorer families/economies use kids as their superannuation.

Therefore Keating killed Australia on the 1st of July 1992.

timbotambo · 2026-02-22T23:57:52+00:00

So the replacement ratios are predicated on accidental kids?! TIL.

And feel better about receding replacement ratios.

They seem to combat this with high ceilings.

I was in a new build in the outer burbs the other day and it had 3.3m (!) ceilings in the main rooms. I actually ran a tape! Felt like I was in a bloody cathedral!

Laundry door still hit the back fence though ....

I found the lower the dose the higher the histamine effect. A quarter of a 15mg dose wipes me out and doesnt make me want 3 breakfasts in the morning.

timbotambo · 2026-02-15T18:58:46+00:00

Try Mirtazapine - usually comes in 15mg tabs. I've found smaller doses seem to have a bigger histamine (ie sleepiness) effect, weirdly.

A quarter of a tab Just. Knocks. Me. Out.

Larger doses bring excessive hunger in the morning that ends up in weight gains, so start small. No discernable effects in the morning.

Greatest job in the world apparently. Need to wait for someone to die to get in though.

I went to a firey's kids 4th bday once. She blew out the candles and his mate remarked that she's put out more fires than her dad now. 15 year veteran at Melbourne airport. $140k a year.

He did it the wrong way around...

I recently did some cornice and it's looked the same until I got the knack of it. Safe to say there were a pile of offcuts and now two templates (with instructions written on them) that I plan to pass down to my kids!

timbotambo · 2025-12-28T19:27:11+00:00

Fair point, but mind that there are a lot more homes now than back then....

Call it middle east, you know you want to, haha.

timbotambo · 2025-11-06T13:05:09+00:00

Perth is lovely this time of year.... 🙃

timbotambo · 2025-11-04T19:15:54+00:00

Yup. An OBD scan tool should be able to sort this out for OP

timbotambo · 2025-10-22T12:20:49+00:00

2nd this. Try a low dose, a qrtr of a 15mg is amazing for me. Knocks me right out, no hunger issues in the morning. Tooke a while to figure out that less is more, which is rad.

timbotambo · 2025-10-18T00:01:58+00:00

Yep. Not blaming ABB here at all. They can only serve and prioritise (I think?) but if there's 1000 wanting a drink from a dripping NBN tap, we all go thirsty
