Bought a Miele charcoal filter AA50 from Retravision in Perth online (I’m in Central Qld) with shipping it was the cheapest at $37 compared to all the others at $39 .
So it arrives I open it up and they’ve sent the AA30. I rang and they said sorry and have sent out the correct one (this one is coming from Bunbury not Perth)
Shouldn’t it have a cross or line through the kangaroo?
I think they need a rebrand to Ostria or Osterreich. Just like Czechia and Turkiye in recent years.
Where has common courtesy gone these days? Especially regards to queuing.
This morning for example, I was queuing at Bakers Delight to purchase some rolls and an older lady pushed in and was served first. This hasn’t been the first time that it has happened and surely won’t be the last with others pushing in to be served first.
I’m sorry but no, line up like the rest of us and wait for your turn. Don’t get me wrong, yes we all get served eventually but don’t push in regardless of age, gender, race etc. Imagine if I did that? The out cry.
It’s probably a first world problem but please be respectful of others.
It seems to be a uniquely boomer and above habit that they are entitled to service (or anything really).
I fought for this country in battles that means I can do whatever I want and if you say otherwise you deserve a whipping on your arse - Many boomers (not all) presumably.
More like “my father fought battles” then they start calling everyone else entitled.
Got a diagnosis which was not unexpected but also a little unexpected the other day and one which I have a feeling I’m not going to be alone with around this place which is why I’m quite comfortable saying this.
The last few months at the push of some friends of mine I’ve been undergoing the testing for an Adult ADHD diagnosis. On Wednesday morning I finally had my psych appointment and got the diagnosis and a bonus one I wasn’t expecting but very much not surprised at. He’s put me as a high functioning ASD and said while he can’t give that as an official diagnosis because of the way it works and because it’s quite expensive to get the testing done and there’s no treatment or anything for that he’s very certain about it.
I’ve spent much of the last 48 hours reading all sorts of different things and it’s so good the only way I can describe it is like walking into a massive library and then having someone take you exactly to the right section to find what you need.
I posted about it on my FB the other night and had several people welcome me to the “club” and several messages and it was really great to have and made me so proud that the level of awareness and understanding in the last 10 - 20 years has changed so much that it’s now recognised as a difference and not as a disability. While there’s definitely some traits I’d love to not have it is still what makes me be me and I’ve survived the past 40 years like this so looking forward to the new discoveries that come into the future.
I’ve accepted that I’m ’different’ a long time ago ,
The only thing that was frustrating was that no one ,like my former workmates,didn’t understand me and I didn’t want to go into great detail about my ‘disability’,or why I acted like I did ,lost my temper or burst into tears too often was sad most days and never laughed 
I would only say I’m very shy ,I find it hard to make friends and mix with people,I have social phobia and anxiety,and prefer to be on my own.
Not alone mate. After 3.5 years of enduring mental torture despite being able to appear fine to everyone else, I spoke to a Doctor last Wednesday.
I’ve been referred to a Psychiatrist for possible bipolar/schizophrenic assessment.
The very act of speaking to someone was so relieving, a weight off my shoulders. I’ve now told family and friends. My struggles unfortunately make up so much of my personality, it’s good to not live a lie anymore and have people accept that I am a bit broken.
Not saying things are all ok now, but it certainly feels less isolating. Best of luck with your journey!
and to you too! Hope the journey becomes smoother but the trying to appear fine for everyone else certainly resonates. That was one of the things forcing me to seek advice - it was getting harder and harder to hide without having a meltdown which in public at nearly 40 years of age is quite embarrassing.
Fortunately for me I was aware of my problem when I was very young ,so I didn’t head into adulthood wondering why I was odd and different ,why I felt like I never fitted in ,firstly at school then later on at work.
Yes I’ve had plenty of meltdowns in my time also I wish I wasn’t the way I am sometimes ,if I wasnt ,ie:if I was ‘normal’ I would have had better jobs that paid well ,instead of only been able to work in manufacturing .I still can’t believe I lasted as long in the workforce as I did.
Guess who is going to see TayTay on Saturday Night.
Finally were able to purchase four tickets at 2pm today and even though it’s restricted view tickets, it’s to say that I’ve seen her live.
I like her so I can justify paying $65 each but don’t like her that much to justify the few hundred-thousand for non restricted viewing.
Gosh. We tried to get tickets in the original release but honestly with all the hype and the crowds that are going to be there, I’m kinda glad I’m not going. Might rent the tour and watch at home 
. enjoy though.
She certainly gets around…
She was in Tokyo last weekend, then in Las Vegas for the Superbowl on Monday, and tonight… HERE in Oz!
How much was a pre-record or a “The Eagle Has Landed”-style double?
I don’t think Tay Tay would risk her multi million dollar empire by pulling a stunt like that.
Too many ‘eagle eyes’ around that could spot it.
I was being facetious.
Join the club.
I’m in your boat but still forked out about 200 bucks for D reserves. Just me being FOMO 
I lose track of her many boyfriends she’s had ,I didn’t realise her newest one is a football player,until I saw pics of her at the Superbowl
