It is not sold, until the $$$ are in the bank, so still here atm. Thinking of bringing in a team of ghostbusters before settlement. There is activity here!

i hate the wastefulness ... sadly distribution costs are so high and no market for it ... too costly to donate to charity-based kitchens ... veges etc would still be perfect for soups and casseroles ... we're stupid in the cities letting the big supermarkets dictate to us
and get this ... inlaws moved into aged care facility in Orange ... great facility ... the area is a great source of fresh food ... fruit veges meat ... you'd think they'd source locally ... but no ... they do purchasing for all facilities in bulk and freight food in ex Melbourne ... no end of complaints re standard of food from the residents ... crappy fruit (if any) in fruit bowls etc has made any change to this. The brochures talked of fresh homestyle meals etc ... utter bs. considering what they are charged to live there it is crazy that they cant have decent Fresh food from local growers and producers.

Aldi is opening here, next week. Coles and Wollies will be pooping bricks, I do hope! Those big boys want to make little guys jump through hoops and well, if they are shut off for a bit - I will enjoy a scarred peel on an orange, for once

So. finally winding down after a HUGE night at work. Working nights takes it toll. Have been doing it for so many years now, that my friends can not understand why I am not awake at a sparrows fart! Hoping this might change, with the new life I am undertaking :)

BTW I like my eggs over easy and unfertilised!
 
Mooseface said:
What does over easy even mean? Cooked/fried both sides?
Click to expand...
Yes like sealed on both sides - yolk needs to be runny

White from see though then flipped, if you get that xx[DOUBLEPOST=1466278261][/DOUBLEPOST]sorta like a poached egg :) but in a frypan - well that is what I call it!

i have a healthy gag reflex too - as in when I hear someone else gagging it starts me off - I'm hopeless around vomiting people ... even being within hearing distance ... just sets me off :(

Omg same!

I can do poo, wee, PV, PR bleeds, sputum (with moderate gagging) but a vomiting client has me dry retching in sympathy!

Second the samples, not the "accent" walls. Been there did that. Enjoyed them at the time, but would never do again.

My brother still has accent walls. It really is amazing how quickly they date. When we moved here I was desperate for a "feature" wall due to always being 5 years behind a trend, and I HATED it. Mutley advised me, and I think making the bathroom one colour made a huge difference.

Not really sure why the trashing of this thread tonight, *I'm not a troll, I'm just misunderstood* you have your own, still not enough, can't let people have conversations without posting random shit that's not relevant.
If you have issue's with the site, find another one where maybe you'll fit in. I don't believe you don't get the "social cue's" you do, you just don't give a shit.
The internet is a very big place. Go look.

Neither of them can stand watching friendships form, or daily chit chat being discussed.

You can either ignore him, or report his posts as spam/baiting. When you respond to him, you feed him. Like the mass debater, this is forum is all he has.

I meant only a few shades different. Not so you actually totally notice. Just to add depth. But ja.. natürlich muss nicht sein. Totally doesnt have to happen!!

shadow2 said:
Haha, yes, I wanted to get rid of feature wall, Ben said keep a feature wall. @mutleyp HELP![DOUBLEPOST=1466235885][/DOUBLEPOST]
I have no idea either. Ha. I really don't want to use Browns.

My suggestion is all uniformed and creating a feature using artwork instead, would Ben be more likely to go for that? xx

Gawd remember my wall?!

What sort of mental defective walks into a paint shop and says "I want a feature wall. Hmmm I want it to be olive with a subtle hint of gastro virus"

Awful.

In retrospect it was a bit gastro meets cigarette plain packaging :eek:

Great place to take a dump!

With your current renos (because you always seem to be doing some form of redecorating) do you have full artistic control?

Decorating is so hard!

Honestly it has taken me 28 cushion covers (I can show you the pile) to find the perfect four! I went black and white linen, in four different designs, and it took two mats, to be happy with my lounge area.

What was I thinking with that red mat?!
