Second batch of crumpets have been made . I think the recipe needs adjusting. Edible, even delicious but a bit heavy.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I've never made crumpets before but I've had atayef pancakes (middle eastern pancakes) lots of times and they always remind me of a lighter crumpet so maybe have a look at those recipes to get some ideas on how to adjust yours.

I need to add more milk and maybe a little baking powder. The batter needs to be a bit thinner.

Don’t suppose you’d indulge us with a photo of said crumpets?

Ventured out to Footscray for some vape supplies. It's so nice here.

Can't wait to move once I have a new contract. Makes where I live seem like the middle of fucking nowhere.

Out west? Miss Seagoon spent about 4 months there, she couldn't wait to get back to Carlton.

I've brought work's iPad away with me to try and get used to it. I kinda wish the OS they run on it wasn't so basic but it has a nice screen and good speakers!

I tried connecting an smb to it, and that was fine, but it won't play mkvs....

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 4 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I use VLC on it to play mkvs

Has anyone been with Bank of Melb for a fixed term before? I want to open one, and out of the banks that offer fixed terms to under 18s, BoM seem to have the highest interest rates. But I've never opened a fixed term account before, so opinions appreciated

Edit: I just realised I'm using the wrong terminology. I mean a fixed term deposit, not a loan

[–] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 3 points 5 months ago

I’d sooner chop my balls off than go with BoM for ANY product ever again. Ask me how they fucked up so bad we almost missed settlement then sent comms speaking about us as customer as if we pure fucking garbage.

[–] dumblederp@aussie.zone 3 points 5 months ago (3 children)

I've got a regular savings acc with Aus Unity for 5.1%. BoM looked to be 4.8% but I didn't check their youth options.
