Weird for me to be posting off Broadway, much less the random thread - but I didn’t exactly want to derail the ARN/SCA acquisition thread after the “am I a furry” quip there, by replying there…

pardon if response is a touch anxious - and given I never know the context of the question (as I don’t know what assumptions people have… they could be positive, but they could be seeing as weirdos or worse, so I default to the defensive :weary:), I’ll just leave it as:

1/ “Yes but barely” - not exactly ashamed to use an avatar of a character I created (at least, it stops me from having a blank avatar here), but it’s basically just that; but also

2/ how did it take almost 1,000 posts of mine on Media Spy (and probably 800 of using the avatar) for it to even come up? :sweat_smile: I would have expected being accused of it a lot earlier.

Do have plenty of deep interests, that said - one of which being what sees me lurk on MSpy :sweat_smile: and the last thing I worry about is myself being chased off here for being slightly weirder than a Seven or Nine fanboy. :stuck_out_tongue: That’s all. :slight_smile:

Further information on my Armidale trip, I am having an excellent time with my uncle Rod in his home tonight. Yesterday and today, I drove past the studio belonging to the 2AD and FM100.3 radio stations in the city, owned by the Super Radio Network.

Has anyone purchased travel luggage from July?

I’m due for an update and the reviews seems favourable.

I’ve increased the volunteer shifts I work at the RSPCA this month,so hopefully I’m not required to show evidence to Workforce Australia/Centrelink that I’ve looked for work
If I’m still am required to submit my report showing evidence of my job search I’m going to ask why,I’ll say I’ll do the 30 hours per fortnight from now on .Its a waste of my time and recruiters who have to look at all these applications,from people who are not suitable,or no longer young and fit,can lift 20 kgs,etc.
The whole system is a joke ,anyone who’s done manual work all their working lives, blue collar unskilled workers like I was, and tradies, can’t be expected to work until they’re 67 to qualify for aged pension :-1:

Isn’t the CBD of Melbourne much bigger. When I lived in Perth I swear i could walk through the CBD in Perth in about 15mins or less. It’s a city but felt like a sprawled out country town.

I haven’t, but I am also thinking about this! I’ve had an American Tourister which has lasted me well but it’s showing a little wear and tear internally.

To me, Perth CBD was only a few blocks wide from north to south, but quite long from west to east.

Yes but Melbourne is a city, Perth is a town.

Just how the locals like the dirty eastern staters to think it is :wink:

Give me Perth over any other Australian city any day. The small town feel is what makes Perth special.

I’m seeing others post on social media about them and their luggage looks great. I’m all for an Australian brand.
