Unsure if this going to edit my previous reply, or make a new comment. Does anyone else use connect app on Android? Whenever I try to make a new comment it 'restores from draft' and prefills the comment block with my last comment.

i'm putting my money on the box.

[-] Duenan@aussie.zone 7 points 6 hours ago

I think the box is going to win as well.

[-] Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 6 points 6 hours ago

The shoebox must be put on the bed now or there will be "trouble".

And by trouble I mean endless meowing at me while I'm trying to sleep.

[-] Alamutjones@aussie.zone 7 points 6 hours ago

Technically Gibson gets two presents. The cat tree and the box

[-] Alamutjones@aussie.zone 7 points 6 hours ago

Been to gym. Been to market.

My fruit and veg people have sold up and retire next week. This is wonderful for them…but I’m kind of a little bit sad

[-] TheWitchofThornbury@aussie.zone 7 points 5 hours ago

You'll have to do the 'unfamiliar market' tango - find a little old lady dressed in black, and follow her at a discreet distance and shop where she shops, buy what she buys. Has helped me out both here and in France (a longish time ago). No interaction as such necessary.

The new Preston Bunnings sucks. Such a pain to get in and out of. I guess at least it encourages me to go to other hardware stores.

Figured I'd make a new comment for visibility - for anyone trying to comment/make a post from lemmy.world instance - it isn't visible to anyone on Aussie.zone for 7 days (if it even syncs at all) There was a post explaining it months ago, seems like it still isn't fixed. https://feddit.org/post/3524876

Is this is regards to Seagoon?

I’m not sure how her sign in was done and which instance it was originally linked to.

I actually thought she forgot her password again.

[-] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 6 points 7 hours ago

She has now signed up through aussie.zone so just waiting for approval.

[-] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 6 hours ago

Ah ok. Now it’s all up to Nath!

[-] Orange1@aussie.zone 6 points 7 hours ago

I saw some posts by her mentioning she was invisible, I could see them on my lemmy.world account because her new account was also on world

[-] Orange1@aussie.zone 2 points 6 hours ago

FYI https://feddit.org/post/3524876

There was another post originally explaining it, but this one seems to have some info

[-] Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 13 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago)

Bought a bass instead of the ps5. Fuck it lol. It was half the price.

[-] LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 6 points 7 hours ago

You're inspiring me (never played bass guitar before but it's on my bucket list)

[-] Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 5 points 7 hours ago

It's a hell of a lot of fun!!! I play bass like a guitarist, not a real bass player, but it's fun as fuck lol

[-] LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 5 points 7 hours ago

Love it.

I have my dad's old electric guitar and am considering taking lessons and buying an amp for it. Maybe then I shall get a bass.

[-] Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 4 points 7 hours ago

There's an app called yousician which is nice for starting out.

Or a website called "Justin's guitar".

[-] StudChud@aussie.zone 5 points 7 hours ago

Fuck yessssss

The line for the ladies at Caulfield sucks ass. God fucking damn.

Edit: its the length of the bookie counter 😭

[-] Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 4 points 7 hours ago

I always think of that Aussie movie "Kenny" when someone mentions the races.

[-] just_kitten@aussie.zone 12 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

At my second inspection. Crusty old dude rocks up and talks only to me and asks if I'm viewing the apartment, then asks if I'm single and gives me this creepy grin and says he'd prefer a single to move into the apartment. Oh and of course he's the owner. Shakes my hand and encourages me to apply. Completely ignores the other attendees (male).

I might've seriously considered this apartment despite the very dated kitchen and bathroom and no fly screens, it's pricey but in a very quiet green location and has a sunlit balcony... But after the above interaction I am definitely not applying wtf

E: I am meant to be cleaning the house but our purritude has other ideas. Purrhaps she has sensed my overall distress. I'll miss this lil sweetie when she leaves on Monday

little nugget on my lap

[-] tone212_@aussie.zone 7 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

I find it odd the LL is at the inspection if he has a REA managing the property? And the whole interaction, yikes. The LL will probably have keys. Stay the hell away!

[-] just_kitten@aussie.zone 4 points 7 hours ago

Yeah it smacked of over-involvement. No thanks! Luckily I'm not being made to vacate so I don't have as much pressure, I'll keep looking.

There’s something about the eyes of Soxcats that always stand out.

Don’t know if it’s the colour and the shape but Soxcat always looks so serious.

[-] Duenan@aussie.zone 7 points 8 hours ago

Warning signs all over the place with that one.

Avoid!

[-] just_kitten@aussie.zone 6 points 8 hours ago

Sucks because I really might've seriously considered it for the quietness and the cleanliness. Light filled and still convenient for work. I was sat in the park wondering if I stuck on my own fly screens and everything else worked okay, could I still stick it out since there's a REA intermediary... Esp as this is probably one of the few times I have an advantage (??) as a single renter. But it's for entirely the wrong reasons

All done. Here's the world's loneliest tomato plant:

[-] dumblederp@aussie.zone 3 points 5 hours ago

Checkout the florida weave trellis technique if you're growing a row of tomato plants.
