    Happy  Holidays

  • HeadwaxHeadwax Posts: 10,459

    We bought Christmas flavoured coffee from Nescafé it tastes like my old socks used to taste , but not as nice. I still have some old socks if any takers got 1984d here the other day for an image that I have no idea what it was

    Special thanks to the 3D product websites and vendors for all the freebies and very low cost items today.  Today I was the happy recipient of 28 products, all of which are high quality.  This on top of my wife's wonderful standing rib roast and egg nog desert.  Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow we ... ah, forget tomorrow.  wink

    this year has alread started to suck for me

    I upset someone in the commons here earlier so going to try and stay out of those social threads

    then my neighbours kid accused me of callling her cousin a see you next Tuesday and yelling at her when she banged my fence

    I pulled up my security footage

    all I said was what was that?

    I don't think she was expecting me to have a camera with sound monitoring my verandah

    I saw a post today that said, "I've had enough of 2026!"  angry

  • StezzaStezza Posts: 8,883

    I wonder if 2026 will see a Mega Sale for Carrara ... hmmm enlightened

    Till it does 99% of my purchases is the where Ross goes devil

    Wendy hope your 2026 improves greatly. Got the Been There/Done That T-Shirt for unpleasant neighbours (currently all good, it was the previous ones who were a PITA), hope yours settle down !

    is Anglicare housing so the will go eventually yes

    get a range of families there, some nice, some awful

    I even sold a car to one

  • StezzaStezza Posts: 8,883

    we have good neighbours 'touch wood'

    in fact one neighbour on Christmas Eve gave us a $100 gift card for being awesome neighbours! surprise

    our previous neighbours from where we lived before though weren't very good at the end, one of the reasons we sold up and moved to the bush. frown

    I had to look that up, sounds like a good program.  Reminds me a little of this in Los Angeles:

    https://hopethemission.org/our-programs/tiny-homes-villages/

    I even brought the topic up with a local charity I support, but it is way too big a project for them.  Houston and Harris County have a number of similar programs.

    my neighbour's wife doesnt speak to me any more after I asked them 5 times not to dump their swimming pool overflow in my back yard 

    they built a huge wall on the boundary and put pipes coming out of it to dump the water !

    hope the Christmas witch was good to everyone, I got a new sock to replace the one I lost a few years ago.... I was left foot sockless for ages....

    my huge gum decided to drop a limb on my neighbours fences and damage them, I will likey be better off paying out of pocket than claiming on insurance because of my big excess

    George, George, George of the Jungle - Watch Out for that Tree !!!

    Luckily the branch didn't land on a house .... But if it dropped one branch there may be more !
