Lovely walk this morning and crashed out into emergency nap when I got home. Now. up. Quick shop and tidy up and then to a friend’s for drinks in the sun.

hmm, anyone do woodworking? I have a bigass solid corner desk with a corner bookshelf on top of it - but I want to raise the bookshelf. It’s all solid pine, I have the panels to do it, but how to attach…
TheWitchofThornbury@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Youtube is your friend here I think. Zillions of handyman channels.
Taleya@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
You’d think so, yah
dumblederp@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
IDK what you mean by panels.
Can you add some legs to the bookshelf so it sits higher and you can use the desk space under it?
Taleya@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Ze desk.
I want to raise it from the bottom (so the top cornices will be samw heighr as a bookcase nearby) , i have solid pine panels a matching thickness (20mm) the desired height (300mm) and proper length (900mm per arm) just pondering attachments. Dowels? Biscuits? Cam locks? Scribe in and metal plates?
The bookcase just sits on the desk, so no worries there…

I have just bought myself a second hand portable air conditioner on eBay. I’m a bit spoiled where I am with airconditioner coverage in most of the house, but the rental places generally don’t have more than a single room covered. I have seen some stuff about adapting vent covers to pull intake air from outside to make the portable units more efficient, so it will be interesting to see if that works - apparently a major reason they don’t work as well as inbuilt is because the hot air being exhausted outside causes a vacuum which pulls fresh (hot) air into the room, many units sold overseas have a second vent for that air intake, but for some reason they don’t sell them with that configuration in Australia.
Even if that doesn’t work out it should be efficient enough to let me sleep in hot weather, and it was a good price only 5 mins away from work to pick up. Now I just have to actually get a property to put it in. They have contacted references so that’s a start, but it is one of the places you apply before you can inspect the property, so even if approved at this stage it is still just a short list. It does indicate the application wasn’t just thrown in the bin due to having pets or something though, so I guess it is positive news. I’m trying not to become too attached to the idea of this specific place, but I’m mentally working out where all the furniture goes and how I’ll decorate, so I guess that’s not really working 🤣

That’s interesting about the mod, I’d love to hear more about it if it works well

It was driving me nuts trying to remember song samples I heard as a kid so ended up digging trying to find them. From few remembered clips I worked out I had Encarta 98 and 99.
I did find a few incomplete playlists but one song still eludes me. I thought it was Dido and Aeneas (Purcell) but that sounded different

The caramelised onion clashes with the peanut butter. They have a little argument on my mouth

Another great jam.
Goodnight all ❤️

Hot damn it’s Not Cold At All out there. Have a tank top and very light cardigan on and feeling warm… friggin confusing…
Well if it’s going to be like this can it stay warm until just before Anzac Day? I don’t want it to get cold again before I have to go to the Tropical Soup.
SpinMeAround@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I foolishly hoped for a warm Easter, so we’ll be blasted by cold next weekend!
just_kitten@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
So far 25C and possible rain next Friday… It might end up cooling down again. Look as long as we can avoid max 16C days before I leave I’ll be happy. Don’t want to do deal with going from 16C to 32C and 90% humidity and 27C overnight…

Got a big lunch planned for this afternoon, so a little breakfast would be just the ticket. Peanut butter and jam sammo please, with coffee.

I’m putting together my shopping order and feel like there is something I wanted to get that I’ve forgotten. No idea what, I’ll probably remember when I need whatever it was.
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Chocolate
Dish soap
Toilet paper?
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Chocolate falls under the want, not need category 🤣
I bought an excessively large bulk pack of dish detergent a while ago and definitely don’t need more of that (and have dishwasher powder on the order already). I also have bulk delivery of toilet paper so should be right for those.
Duenan@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Chicken
RustyRaven@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
I think the dog’s kibble covers that.
