Assistance Pothead neighbours stinking my mums living area.

0 Upvotes

What do I do? I don’t know whether to speak to them directly, write a letter or get a third party involved?
The smell is putrid, consistent and potent.

I worry about repercussions, considering my mum is a senior and lives alone and has two small animals in her yard so I don’t want an absolute nutter to do something stupid.

EDIT: no insinuation that smokers are immediate nutters, more just knowing my luck or IF the case an interaction goes sour.

Snuck a peak… There seems to be a gazebo of sorts in the back yard !!? (Does growing contribute to the continuous smell?) and a pile of electronics like VCRs etc in the yard. Bizarre set up.

Question We have spoken about Powderfinger tickets but how are people going with the real main event; Nickelback?

0 Upvotes

With a few pre sales down (Live Nation this morning), how did we fare?

I got into the wait room at 0931 and my wife at about 0935 from work. When it opened i had just over people 2000 ahead of me, she somehow had about 1200. Anyway she got in and got us tickets but many sections were single seats or sold out by the time she got access.

Best of luck everyone and here's to dad rock!!!

Question West Aussie in ADL: What to do?

0 Upvotes

Hi all! I’m 18F going to visit my sister 23F in adelaide for a week in december. I’m from western australia, and typically my holidays involve going down south to margaret river wine regions, and crystal clear beaches up north.

What can me and my sister do in the weeks before christmas to make the most of spending time with eachother. We grew up together and are very close but she moved away to be with her partner a few years ago, and we only get to see eachother once a year if we’re lucky.

I like to drink and I have tried every high end restaurant in western australia. I want to spoil her to a nice dinner as she doesn’t get to do those things very often. I’m also thinking about doing a puppy yoga as she’s said there’s heaps here. What else can we do to fill up an entire week?

Thank you!!!

From tomorrow, SA Police will have extra powers in the Glenelg entertainment district, with Moseley Square, Glenelg Jetty and the tram stop on the popular strip marked as part of a Declared Public Precinct.

The extra powers given to police in Declared Public Precincts include the right to conduct metal detector searches to find weapons and drug searches. Police can also ban a person from the area for up to 24 hours if they commit an offence, are offensive or behave in a disorderly manner.

It comes about two weeks after police brought forward its Operation Jericho across the western suburbs coastline to crack down on disorderly behaviour after videos emerged online of young people fighting at Henley Square and Glenelg.

Event/Activity Birthday restaurants recs?

• Upvotes

Hi alll, I’m 23 and my birthday is coming up and I’d love some good restaurant options/recs to celebrate with my friends this year. Somewhere that’s nice but also doesn’t have scalping prices would be preferable 😅

It’s some 15 people and I happen to be quite soft spoken so a place that has somewhat of a secluded/seperate area where we can converse would be nice. Like Toyama’s little area but they closed down. 🥲

Somewhere by the beach or with a nice view would also be great but those are just additional whims.

Thanks in advance!!

Discussion “Park Safe” AI revenue raising cars in Adelaide City Council

53 Upvotes

I hate these. Would anyone sign a petition to stop them? They’re bad at their job, they constantly make mistakes, and moreover NOBODY asked for them. I hate that they’re called “Park Safe” too, dressing themselves up like their whole point is to make our city “safer”. Bullshit. Just another way to stretch thin our privacy and raise revenue. Anyone with me?

Discussion Theatre anxiety

21 Upvotes

Going to a gig by myself and super anxious.

It's a comedy show with my absolute favourite comedian of all time at Thebarton theatre. I don't do great in crowds and usually lean on my partner to get through but he's not coming so I'm just getting so anxious. I've never been to this theatre which is making it worse, I'm limited mobility in that I can't stand/walk for more than a few minutes due to a spine condition causing leg weakness and pain. I'll be getting dropped off and am wondering if people know how early I can get there to be able to enter and sit down without having to queue? Will I be able to sit inside the lobby?

I'm also anxious about my ticket not working as I've never used a digital ticket before. If it doesn't work, will staff be able to sort it on the night?

I know I sound ridiculous. It will be much easier to just bail but I know I'd regret it for the rest of my life because like I said, huge fan of this comedian and will be devo if I can't get my shit together and go.

Question Suitcase rummage in Adelaide

4 Upvotes

Does anyone have any recommendation for anything similar to this:

https://www.instagram.com/suitcaserummages/

I want to sell stuff from my wardrobe, but I can’t really find anything as low key as this in Adelaide. I know there’s things like Gilles Markets, but they charge like $150 for a stall, and it’s mostly resellers running an overpriced vintage clothes market.

I’m also aware of preloved stores where you pay to have your items on a rack for 2 weeks.

I looked into car boot markets as well like the one in Christie’s Beach, but I’m really just looking for something closer to the city and that specialises in selling stuff out of your suitcase, and doesn’t charge you over $100 to do that.

Assistance Hair salon recommendations?

2 Upvotes

Hello, I’m looking for recommendations for salons that do a good job and don’t charge an arm and a leg.

I got my last haircut maybe last October (oops) and all I want is a simple trim to my ends to keep my hair levelled and maybe like retrim to my face framing pieces but everywhere I’ve been seeing is like $80+ for a wash and cut but like it’s such a simple thing to get done that I can’t justify that price? I don’t even want a wash just a cut..

Would appreciate good recommendations ❤️

I'm planning to cycle from port Adelaide to Gawler on the bike path that follows the northern expressway. But I can't quite tell where it goes to in Gawler? It seems like there isn't much along the way, but looks like it goes close enough to Salisbury and Munno para if I have to bail along the way?

Pioneering Australian hip hop group Hilltop Hoods rapped about "Goin' down a hard road" in 2006.
Now, the Adelaide trio are being honoured with a laneway in their hometown.

Clubhouse Lane, running off Hindley Street in Adelaide's CBD, was renamed Hilltop Hoods Lane at a ceremony today.

Two large-scale murals featuring the group and their associated iconography, created by Adelaide artist Vans the Omega, run down both sides of the laneway.

The Hoods, who still call Adelaide home, say it's an "incredible honour" to have their own laneway in the heart of the city they know and love.

In short:

Adelaide University is set to offer staff over the age of 55 early retirement packages and has left the door open to a round of voluntary redundancies.

The new merger university opened in January backed by a $464.5 million SA government package but is grappling with a drop in international student revenue.

What's next?

Vice-Chancellor Professor Nicola Phillips has warned staff not to "underestimate how carefully we're going to need to manage costs for the foreseeable future".

on the 7th this month I went to the old gaol with my Kodak No. 1A Junior, made in 1920. i took a few photos, this is the standout one. there are a couple of light leaks as the bellows are very old and worn, i plan to seal the pinholes in the future and try again. i'm glad the light leaks avoided the main subject of the photo. i used 120 film with 3d printed adapters. i'm very happy with this result even though there are imperfections because it's my first time using film and i think the blemishes give it a little bit of character. what do you think?
