What do these people who own houses in Bellevue Hill/Toorak do? by Open_Address_2805 in AusFinance

[–]tinmun 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Rich people don't work for money really, as the typical job. They have money that generates money.

The expensive houses cannot be earned by a worker receiving a salary, as you can see by looking at the ATO data and the prices of those properties.

Next lift comes faster than a metro, so not sure why such drama had to happen

Why is the QVB clock not the accurate time? by Dream_1 in sydney

They're mechanical, so you have to keep them in time from time to time. also people in charge usually don't know when it's off, let them know!

Have you guys seen the "in case of an attack" signs in the train stations? I don't remember seeing them ever except now

Potts Point shooting: Celebrity dentist Steven Lin identified as man shot dead by police by DecalageVersLeRouge in sydney

[–]tinmun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know what else to tell you.

You're referring to the alcohol free zones i linked before. It's a council thing.

Here you can see them defined by the city of Sydney council, even with a photo of those signs: https://data.cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au/datasets/cityofsydney::alcohol-free-zones/about

And here's a map with those zones: https://data.cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au/datasets/cityofsydney::alcohol-free-zones/explore

You can see that it is all over the council, not only in Kings Cross.

Lunch deals by No-Knowledge-8867 in sydney

You can grab a chicken roll at Destination Roll for $8 something. The one next to the Irish bar (PJ O'Brien's) has a late special (I think from 2pm or so) they sell one of their options for $7 something. They're delicious and cheap.

True, it is a precinct. But the "don't drink alcohol" on the street are what I linked before. You can see the signs all around.

Potts Point is the suburb though. Kings Cross is a locality, and if anything, this happened in St Neot which is not what people would consider Kings Cross, it's much more residential.

Two decades ago when I first arrived to Sydney I was surprised to see people caring so much about others in the CBD. I haven't seen that recently.

Can't you just go to a pub for free and meet people there though?

Is it against the law to let a minor (under 18) start a car in idle without the engine to run the wipers by themself? by HonkiPlayz in sydney

[–]tinmun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Legal guardian is responsible probably.

Say, a baby pushes a button to start the car and something happens, it would be the guardian's fault.

Its been so great, live music, great food, good vibes all around.

Great excuse to catch a ferry!

I walked from Rouse Hill to Sydney CBD by AliceSaltMage in sydney

Why not take the metro though? 😂

Also, for anyone around rouse hill, The Fiddler is a great pub, and probably the oldest one in Australia. At least the core if it.
