So Who Gives A Crap (who I haven’t ordered from in many years, I remember my kids were very little) have just informed me that they’ve had a data breach of full name, phone number, email address, billing/home address and the amount spent in total for the account. Why are these companies keeping details for so long? This is almost as bad as the periodontal clinic that had the same issue a few months back, leaked my details when I hadn’t been a customer of theirs for over 13 years. There has to be a time by which the details of dormant accounts or old accounts are deleted. They shouldn’t be allowed to just keep your details forever when you aren’t engaging their services. I feel like they aren’t being careful enough.

Only got one day of work this week, so I’ve spent time whizzing around with my new vacuum cleaner and reorganising cupboards, throwing stuff out, donating old clothes and washing curtains and such. I bought some new cheap curtains and they’re actually not bad, give Elder’s room a bit of a lift. I’ve made the most of my time whilst also managing to occasionally be very lazy, so I’m feeling fairly chuffed with myself.

That’s so true! This one’s a Mitsubishi, prior to owning it I never even knew they made fridges. It was given to me for nothing by a charity when it was brand new and I was stranded and destitute in a country town trying to pay out both a business and residential lease. It’s been carted halfway around the state and is older than my kids, (and therefore too small) but I just can’t
afford tobring myself to replace it because it still works fine pats fridge again “don’t you darling!” smiles and nods encouragingly. It’s funny how I can get sentimental about whitegoods. We’ve been through a lot together. - Comment on Discussion Thread 💙 Friday 6 November 2026 6 days ago:
I have famously shown my fridge already in this sub, a long time ago. It is a 16 year old embarrassment, covered in kids artwork, dents, photos, old magnets, notes and half-removed stickers. All your fridge doors put me to shame, every single one. Pats fridge reassuringly “I mean, goooood fridge, niiiiice fridge, keep going sweetheart!”

Went to Melbourne central today and wandered around with the kids looking at things. So many boutiquey places, I don’t know how they stay in business. My eldest has been longingly eyeing off the Turmeric Latte fragrance from Lush for a while, and again today he had a spray of it and sighed and said it was beyond his price range. Little does he know I’ve bought it for him as a Christmas gift and I was really hoping he didn’t buy it 😆

I was just reading about biphasic sleep and suddenly I understand myself a whole lot better. Throughout human history, people have gone to bed just after dark and slept, awaking naturally in the middle of the night. They would spend an hour or so doing quiet stuff like reading, checking the kids, in prayer, stoke the fire, have a drink or whatever, then go back to sleep again until daybreak. I’ve always slept in a “split shift” and felt bad because I couldn’t do a solid 8 hours or so. Apparently people have only been sleeping in a solid block since the advent of modern electric lights. So I’m not a bad sleeper after all 🤔

I’m happy happy happy! So excited, my new vacuum cleaner arrived today. I realised it’s the first time I’ve ever bought one! Someone’s mum or whatever is always getting a new one so they’ve given me their old one, and this has happened all my life. It was an impatient few hours waiting for it to charge up but I’ve been buzzing around vacuuming at night like I did when I was younger 😆 The old one was legendary but actually too heavy and cumbersome to lug around, but this one is much easier.

I found this too, with riding my bike. So many places had broken air hoses that I started carrying my own bike pump in my backpack!

Went out and did grocery shopping earlier and got solidly rained on. First time in a while that I’ve had to wipe dry the things before I put them away. Just feel like resting. Have started reading the first Jack Reacher novel again. Makes a change from all the dystopian horror I’ve been reading lately.

100%, my big old lemon tree is taking lots of water while it’s fruiting and the roses out front have been suffering a bit.

I’m partial to an arrowroot biscuit. All the plain sweet biscuits you mentioned were a staple in my childhood home, especially the malt ‘o’ milk. They could be used both for eating with a cuppa and making slices 🤤

Hey umm, not sure about if I missed anything because I’ve stepped back from social media somewhat these days, but has anyone heard anything from Melba? Account says last post/comment was 5 months ago. Do they have a new account? I know the loss of Melbcat was deeply felt. I think of them from time to time. Just wondered if anyone knew anything?

I’ve only seen odd ones here and there, but I’ve been reporting the sightings to the moth tracker (melb zoo) website. Apparently they want to know if you are them and you send a picture you took. So I’ve been taking pics of moths. It’s kinda fun. For me anyway.

People I used to work with got dried mango and put it in vodka and let it infuse (not sure how long for, like a couple of weeks?) reckoned it was yummy. Also did it with dried paw paw.

A garden ornament I’ve got fell over! It’s a white faux marble lady holding up a flattish bowl thing with a plant on it. The plant ended up on the ground but the right way up with not a crumb of dirt spilled 😅

Trust me to take leave from Wednesday to today with the weather turning out like this. Happy for the garden though, it hasn’t looked this green in weeks.

There is a lot of it around, and plenty of it is mediocre as you’ve discovered. They use and sell Bippi where I work and it’s ok for what we use it for (Italian style foods that have a little kick in the background like a la vodka sauce, but nothing that’s going to kick your arse with heat).

I love Cempasuchil Mexican Tijuana oil, if you ever see it. I especially love the Oaxacan oil (it’s got a smoky flavour). I used to work with the lady who makes it and the Tijuana oil doesn’t mess around.

I can’t stand that posh-a ting bitchy blonde woman with her bushranger-bearded sub husband. I guess, given the formula of these shows, she’s the one that’s been put there as “the one you love to hate,” but ok you got me 🙋🏼♀️Those bogan chicks are hard to look at and even harder to listen to! People who think that “keeping it real” is an excuse to be rude and obnoxious. Love the two nurses. Don’t think much of the other couple either.

Not sure what they’re like new now, so forgive if this isn’t real helpful, but I’ve got a 10 year old Fisher and Paykel 6kg top loader that’s still chugging along fine touches wood. My washer has to go in a tight spot which doesn’t allow for a front opening door. I also have knee issues which override any pleasure obtainable from watching a front loading “laundry telly” 😆
