    Dear DT and Baku,

    I want to apologise for the abusive language I directed at Baku. I was inappropriate, and I regret the hurt I caused. I am sorry for contributing to your decision to delete your account, Baku.

    To the DT, I apologise for disrupting the thread and creating unnecessary drama. I failed to maintain the respectful and civil atmosphere of this community, and I understand how my actions may have disappointed the group.

    I have learned from this mistake and will be more mindful in the future.

    Also Winston the intruder:

    Jumped the fence, wanted a pat, took a whizz in the garden and went home. He’s a good boi.

          And howww. Got the drainage done (trenches pics), smashed up the old collapsing pathway, dug it all down 20cm, now roadbase, then sand, then old path back as crazy paving, with a new grade that then means we can start putting the new level in what was a massive garden bed full of garbage, then wicking beds (so’s we can use when old and creaky, plus better water usage) and the pergola, and the firepit and the bbq paving and the car hole and the shed and and and and and…

    Usually I’m an out all day fiend, but I have ridden the loop up through Healesville, Marysville and Reefton and am back.

    I didn’t even leave that early. My poor earplugs have died and I am ded, but happy. My mate was right when they said nothing beats it.

    Now to do some things in silence. RIP little hairs in ears, I am sorry.

    I learnt today that Canada has a potato chip flavour called “All-Dressed”. It’s a super combo of “ketchup”, BBQ, salt & vinegar and sour cream & onion. I’m literally frothing at the thought.

    Made this with half a head of cauliflower to take to my friend’s (and clear out my fridge a bit) according to this recipe - I gotta say came out quite nice and actually really easy to make. Did not end up mushy or too crunchy! Definitely gonna add this to the rotation

    yum

              If they sell Garna then I might have to question if I still support Utd after all these years. It’s not about Garna, it’s about us selling the last of what remains of the soul and spirit of the club.

    It was so nice going to a friend’s place for dinner and bringing a plate, I haven’t done that with a friend in so long… Used to do it with my old circle of friends so I miss it being a frequent way of catching up. Much cheaper than eating out and more fun to cook for others (even with a shitty kitchen). I made a capsicum and shiitake mushroom stir fry to go with the cauliflower, took some of my pickled daikon and carrot and she had made a lovely seafood soup and grilled mackerel and rice. What a feast!

    dins

    and then after figuring out a little carpark app trick to getting 4h paid parking in a 2h spot in Carlton (parking really is harder now, RIP 4h and free spots), we headed into the city and I treated myself to an indulgent black sesame parfait 😋

    dessert!

    Now it’s time to sleep and not read more severance theories… Night all.

This community is a place created for the people of Melbourne and Victoria. We are a positive, welcoming and inclusive community. We might not agree about everything, but we always strive to stay civil and respectful.

The focus of our discussions is based around things that affect Victoria, but we are also free to discuss our local perspective on wider issues. Or head to the regular Daily Random Discussion thread to talk about anything.
