Just changed over my electricity and gas providers now that the new rates apply. Much cheaper alternatives available after ridiculous hikes by current providers. I will cheers to my money savings! 🍺

Yeah I have one, it's an oldie but it does the job. I wear it only to track workouts. I used to wear it all the time but not anymore.

The battery runs out pretty fast on mine, especially if I'm using it on 4G.

Lunch in the sun. It’s nice but the air still has a bite to it. Bring on 18 degrees on Sunday.

I have complained in the past about another disruptive group (not there today) and basically the staff there did nothing because the leader of the group is “difficult” to deal with. They kept saying they’d talk to them but never did. I suspect because the group brings in more $$ in membership fees that they didn’t want to annoy them. Plus the other people in the area where I sit that were annoyed by the group all left, so I was the lone complainer.

My membership works at other locations so I might go check another out and see if it’s less crazy. I don’t have to stay there.

The amount of loud and inconsiderate assholes in my co-working office today is unreal. Phone calls in open plan area instead of phone booths. A team of people I've never seen before sitting near me who think I want to hear their conversations and are not capable of using meeting rooms. When I arrived this morning, one of them was sitting at my desk using my monitor. I politely pointed out MY monitor and cables are not common property and asked them to move. Food crumbs left on my desk once they moved. I can barely concentrate even with headphones on.

I think it's time to move somewhere else. I'm starting to not enjoy coming here, which defeats the purpose of paying for a membership.

Edit - add several people watching a video on a laptop on loudspeaker.

A mashed potato craving will only be satisfied making it yourself, Deb is not good. It's for school canteens.

Do they still play that song on the radio? This is a station I need to listen to!

My neighbour's dog is howling its little brains out and I can't understand why they're letting this noise continue. I've never heard it do this before. Either way, it's bloody annoying when I'm trying to work. Headphones on!

Definite yay, welcome to the expensive dark side

Set up and connected my new vinyl player, the records sound sooo much better. Got this player half price during EOFY sales, it was a steal. Having fun re-listening to my records sounding the way they should have all along.

Not too windy here yet but I can hear it picking up. Barely any rain either.

Edit - just as I said it’s not that windy, out of nowhere it’s gone really blustery!
