I just went to pull out a weed I didn't recognise. Stinging nettle apparently. Ouch.

Seeking recommendations for an ironing board and cover. It's for mum, she doesn't want anything ever, but she wants this, and she's about to buy a shit one to use up a gift card. She loves ironing. High budget.

buy a wide one that also has an add on for sleeves and shoulders , get an extra thick liner

Go to Myer or David Jones etc. - Myer has a homewares section. High end stock and prices to match. Or go to Spotlight/Lincraft for next level down stuff. Probably too late to go on-line for a really high quality professional one.

I finally got some good news on the health insurance front - the Transfer Certificate finally arrived, and even though I haven't had extras for a few years they waived the waiting periods for that as well as for the hospital cover.

Has anyone else noticed brown beetles at night time that have a low pitch loud buzz when they fly? Saw one a couple nights ago and then a few more again tonight. Haven’t seen them before. Friend or foe?

Wondering if “spice up your life” had had sudden jump in streams since Sunday?

I loved the fact they just dedicated the three/four mins to let Neil Patrick Harris just do his thing in a one hour special. Glorious
