Should've checked here as I barely slept a wink

Ugh, poor Melbcat! I think banana flavoured liquid deserves a special place in hell ๐Ÿ˜ I've turned hand/face soap into laundry soap with positive results. I bought some Dove soap a while back but wasn't happy with it (ain't what it used to be) but found it to be excellent for my towels. Made them softer than my face lol.

I bought the brie and cream on very special occasions. Saputo, a Canadian based multinational company which expanded via mergers and acquisitions, can't find a buyer.

I used to have lots of bad dreams which were realistic and traumatic. I'm the sort of person that regularly uses reverse psychology on myself, or turns things on their head. So one day I thought, "you know what these are Sheila? FREE MOVIES!" and decided I was going to enjoy the free entertainment provided by my apparently fertile imagination. Promptly stopped having dreams.

Lol I'm as subtle as a train crash when my diplomacy fails, there is no middle.

Thanks for the info. I sleep hot also and once bought microfiber.. ugh. Worst sheets ever. Using a cotton blend atm but the dust and fibres! I change the sheets and make the bed and it looks like I haven't dusted in weeks!

What was it like? I knew an Italian woman who occasionally used to make lasagna with this flatbread stuff, I think it was that mountain bread or sorj bread? Said it came out perfectly fine.

I admire your organisational skills and motivation, good on you!

Wow, they sound amazing. I have many questions.. actually just 4: How do they handle romantic interludes and the various resulting bodily outcomes? Are they sweaty in summer? Do they dry easily after you wash them? Do they stain easily?

If my electrical goods are genuinely beyond repair they go out to the hard rubbish and strangely disappear before the collection day. Old phones which have a still usable camera get set up with the Alfred app and become a security camera. Any non usable ones go to the box at the front of my local Woolies along with my dead batteries. Some repair places take old laptops etc as part of a trade (like Renewd) and presumably use them for parts.

Yes, I totally agree. When I was young I used to think, if you've worked hard and bought yourself a little weekender or property to one day retire to, like some of my friends did, then good on you. But with negative gearing, stagnant wage reform, stagnant social security payments, the air bnb situation, and people owning not "a little weekender" but 10, 20, 100 properties, it's beyond a joke. Housing is a right and should never be treated like it isn't.
