The trades left my place around 2pm, sent me their invoice then, 3 hours later I get a message “hi just checking you received my invoice?” as to prompt me to pay now. Are you serious? I get a whole 3 hours before a follow up?
Yeah it’s hard times.
I don’t pay until I’ve closely inspected the job they’ve done, usually 1 or 2 days later depending on what the work is. Cos they ain’t coming back once they’ve been paid. I learned this the hard way. And I need more than 3 hours on a a work day to do what I need to do to be satisfied of a job well done.
Oh 100%. I wasn’t trying to suggest you give in to pushiness - just making a general observation
Ugh, between Protest and Weather and this time of day, this is definitely one time I wish the flight was delayed… ETA right now is that I’ll get there just in time for boarding. Breathe deeply…
Glad for the edit! Yay you made it!!!
weather on phone says rain at 2, accuweather says rain at 5
I think I have time to do some painting 👍
It’s raining now
Well done, it only took 13 minutes for you to summon the rain. That’s considered a gift!
the time it took to put washing in the machine and go to the loo. It was sunny when I started , when I came out less than ten minutes later it was raining enough for me to have to quickly pack everything up
Getting hail here in Richmond. All Hail Richmond!
1 cm hail here in Carlton
Good night everyone. 😘
I got my kitchen cleaned, dishes washed, shirts ironed (yuck), tomorrow’s to do list written and bags mostly packed! Night night.
like a reverse tornado 🙂
I’m wondering if I should spray a stinky orange cleaner or repellent around outside to discourage the visiting cats. I like them but Melbcat gets really stressed out and being an indoor kitty could feel like she’s trapped with threats outside.
I just know orange oil and other essential oils/ strong scents are an asthma trigger and might waft back inside 🤔
Chilli powder can work.
I don’t wanna mess with their breathing or hurt their peets
They don’t tend to go near it at all. I’ve used it on a fence as a paste to keep a neighbourhood cat our of my yard, and to keep my own contained before I built their cat run.
How it it as a sprinkle on the ground/doorstep? And if I can’t find a small thing of chili powder could I use one of those Hoyt’s sachets of cayenne pepper?
I’m a bit worried about tracking it inside for Melbcat to walk on and lick from her feet.
Don’t know about the cayenne pepper. I got 1kg for $5 at the grocers and just spread a line where I didn’t want them to cross. I reapplied it after rain and they didn’t go near it.
Nah, you’ll feel like shit if it affects your cat.
Good call
I orange oil my wooden floors and neither my asthma nor the cats are bothered by it. Everyone is different…

Hooray for nice dreams.
Dunno, I always wake up before it gets to the really good bit 🙃
No comment lol
Weirdly smoky out my way. Comes and goes. Or is it just my nose. AQF stations not picking up anything atm.
The NQR in box hill has four packs of t2 canned iced tea for $2.5 for any tea enjoyers. They’re near the front.
Google Photos showed me a photo of my dog eating a stick from four years ago.
Stick never stood a chance against a ferocious beast like that.
Beautiful!!! 😍😍😍😍
made a… I dunno what your call it. One Pot? Veg and meat curry? Ratatouille? Whatever, made a thing last night. Not a huge veg guy, but cause it was all mixed in with some chorizo and chicken it was amazing. Woke up still thinking about it this morning. Didn’t even follow a recipe, just took some inspiration from a YouTube video and made some changes.
There’s an Australian youtuber called OnePotChef if you want to continue down this path
Sounds delicious!
Ah the delicious accidental meal you may never be able to replicate again.
I’ve suffered from this too. And the disappointment on the fams faces when it’s not the same as last time. I can’t even remember what was in it!
Can you make that chicken dish you made that one time. You know, the one I really liked
Ya wanna give me a hint on what and when that was?
It had chicken in it, you know?
Sure 😠
I’m gonna write the recipe down. SHOULD be able to replicate it.
Get on it ASAP!
Seems like 14 hours of sleep between naps and a full night is what my body needed.
Feeling much better today, but still hating on grubby sick people on public transport.
Thankfully it’s WFH for the rest of the week.
Erg. Good morning
Good morning fellow "erg"er!
Where rain?
