      1. Depends on the day of the week. Chicken crimpy, BBQ or cheddar are my favs, but I do like the vegemite cheese ones.
      2. Somewhere between 7-7:30
      3. Existential crisis.
      4. I don’t think so.
      5. I quite enjoy an IKEA but I can’t say I’m phased either way. If it’s close enough to not fuck up immediate traffic, sure, why not.
      6. TK Maxx. I like to sniff candles and check out cheap makeup.
      7. At least twice. Which is far, far, farrrr less than he used to.

      What are your answers?

      3. Phone then walk the dog.
      4. Never had a Bunnings snag.
      5. I have the biggest Ikea near me.
      6. Savemore or Europa Markets, if not food then eBay/marketplace.
      7. Never, we sleep together. It’s been eight years and we’re good. He might wake me to get under the covers if it’s gotten cold but I barely notice. Lift the blankets, he wiggles in and snuggles up.

      1. BBQ?

      2. Lately it’s been 7am.

      3. Unfortunately go on my phone or existential crisis also.

      4. I have never had a Bunnings snag! Am I missing out? My partner had Bunnings vouchers from work and it made me question what makes the establishment so popular.

      5. I live a moderate distance from an IKEA and go about twice a year. It is an experience I looked forward to as a kid and still as a kidult. Fridays are half price on meatball meals for ikea family members.

      6. The retail store I work at :(

      7. If I am the only one in the house, at least five times. I feel sorry for the other members of the house he clings to. Velcro dog.

      3. Check the time.

      4. Yes.

      5. Yes.

      6. The Vietnamese shop.

      7. Sometimes I hear him shaking his collar and running up and down the hall which means I have to get up and let him out or he’ll sizzle on the carpet.

    Anyone here a fan of the late 90s Melbourne crime tv show, Good guys, Bad guys? I just bought both seasons on DVD with a view to watch them then uhh pass them onto the internet, so if anyone’s interested in some 90s Aussie crime-drama let me know.

    Took a tin of coins to the ATM after trivia and made $46.60 from pouring them in. I feel like that time Homer found $20 when he was going door to door selling sugar

    bleach hasn’t helped, am currently soaking it in Vanish, hot water and colour catchers

    Our time in office requirements have climbed, effective immediately. I can DO it - I live walking distance, it’s no difference to me - but some warning would have been good

      Did they say why? We are still pretty flexible - some rules about communicating status - and that can be frustrating sometimes but its good when people can stay home if they have a minor snuffle and not sure if its a cold yet. or when the trains are disrupted. It would be frustrating to have to change all of a sudden

      My package turned out to have just fit into the mail box. Which turned out to be not particularly waterproof when there is heavy, wild rain. It’s a bit on the soggy side, and the letters that were with it were absolutely sopping - they were litterally dripping water.

        Eeep, hope it was all okay and legible!! Yay for the convenience of the letterbox, boo the rain! Mine has been stuck at Melbourne Airport since Friday, suspect my poor little Wolfusand is stuck to the bottom of a cage or something and just doing the loops.

          Opening it was a matter of peeling the envelope off the letter instead of actually opening it, but it held up pretty well. The vouchers for the tip are drying off, the letter telling me I’m old and should be doing things to ward off dementia is in the bin, and the envelope of junk mail went straight in the bin.
