      are the bailing cause the new account manager is useless? or cause you stepped down? Or just the overall shit level of service?

            They can’t follow a video I made spelling out how to do literally everything.

            The person who was protecting them left yesterday.

            Reality is going to hit hard 😂

    Getting up when it’s still dark, but not too cold is one of life’s great pleasures. Seeing the sun rise illuminate the parklands. Seeing people walking, jogging and riding their bikes first thing. And of course seeing rubbish strewn (yes STREWN) all over the court because the rubbish truck driver could not be bothered to stop and clean it up.

    Not my bin thankfully, but it’s been cleaned up, council notified and note left for neighbour that their bin hasn’t been emptied.

          Cover your roof with tinfoil to prevent them electronically scanning you, then put a layer of camouflage tarp over the top so they think it’s just a vacant lot.

    excitedly planning out purchases for the van. We threw away/donated tons of stuff and are basically starting again (plus I don’t wanna carry heavy glass and china that looks pretty breakable) and we have tons of our own camping gear we can just put in the van but now I’m just filling the gaps. I can finally justify bringing a kettle and toaster. I still love camping in my swag, and I’ll still do it from time to time. But camping with power (until I can get a basic offgrid system) its going to be very very nice!

    My kid did a little tidy up in my kitchen yesterday. The kettle was unplugged, the frying pan was put in the cupboard where it doesn’t belong, green teabags mixed in with English breakfast and I don’t know where the sweet potato went that was on the bench.

        it would take a lot of effort to get into trouble

        bogged in the mud flats perhaps or in deep water off the pier
