Got a whole lot of household stuff I've been thinking about selling because I'm moving away. Better give them to you. IKEA drill set, hammer and screwdriver set, space heater, baskets and tubs and stools, drawer set on wheels, microwave and pizza oven, etc etc. All those bottles of this and that for cleaning, bleach tablets, sponges, hand soap. The list goes on. Let us know what you don't already have!
! is our chef leaving Melbourne 😿 (But also if it is for warm and fuzzy feelings, this is good)
I left Melbourne several Christmases ago (true story, the tickets to Perth were purchased initially to be just a holiday visit), but somehow I'm still here. Think of me as so far west, I'm past Werribee.
You’re just in a really outer western suburb… with a much better train system
Not going to lie, zooming in a train doing 100+ kph, while cars are doing 60 next to you is pretty fun. 😃
The best bit is the freeway at peak hour. Cars sitting in traffic watching a secession of trains flying past them doing 120 while they crawl to town.
We have a new train line opening next weekend. Will have to take the kids to Ellenbrook on the opening day.
