Plans with aunt changed at the last minute and I ended up going to their temporary place digs 'round the corner from Chaddy. Itās got Muji and Macpac in one convenient location, open till 9pm - great, I think.
45 minutes of car park shenanigans laterā¦ I remember that it is never that convenient at that hellish place. I also spent a disproportionate amount of time at Muji ogling all the muted earthy everything (made with exploited labour and unethical materials no doubt but very visually appealing nonetheless)ā¦
But no, I shanāt accumulate ā just bought the flannel shirt for work and more importantly, a second pair of comfy pants. Between that and two brand new FXD pants from earlier today to replace my threadbare, well-loved pair, I have all the comfy pants I need!
Over to RSEA tomoz for a hi viz jumper and windproof jacket and Iāll be set. Wallet looking dire until I get reimbursed/tax return tho. Better get everything ready to file asap on 1 July.

I was at RESA recently looking for a decent high viz hoodie and they didnāt have anything that I liked. I went with āBisley Taped Hi Vis Fleece Hoodie (BK6819T)ā offa ebay for about $60.

Iām looking for something that can fit certain tools in the front pockets, and I know one of the Eleven hoodies does (an ex colleague has it), so I might try them on anyway, but if not Iāll try the Bisley ones available at the shop near my place (that sadly isnāt open Sundays). Work will reimburse these ones so Iām not too fussed.

I mainly wanted a fluro, reflective, zip-through hoodie which RESA couldnāt help with. I wanted it for cycling. If I cycle dressed like a tradie I get way more respect on the roads than dressed like a mamil.

Yeah, their range of stuff isnāt so good for active work like that. Itās really pitiful for women as well. Iām going to have to try on menās jackets and hope I can find something that fits.
