Little Things You Hate

[pink poodle]

No sir butter is wasted calories and detracts from the taste - You need that dryness of the bun to appreciate the moistness of the lettuce

It was cabbage! Wishing to transition to slaw.

Sigh. The inevitable show down on car parking happened today when I actually needed to go out and had to ask they move their car.

I hate confrontations, left me wanting to throw up for the next hour... Anyhoo, went as well as can be expected and I made sure I only said they were being weird and unexpected and that their behaviour was making us feel really uncomfortable. No abuse or swearing and hence giving them no ammunition at all.

She is now making an effort to park so i can get past. I told her that her husband had been making Kirsty feel creepy and very uncomfortable due to his eavesdropping and hanging around when she was out doing the blackberries (true - creepy AF little prick...) which i hope sunk in.

Apparently we "are very unneighbourly". Sigh. I am clearly evil for wanting to clear out weeds, tidy the joint up and also be able to access my own driveway. Shame on me....

clear out weeds

Sounds like you have slipped into the Tassie way of life like a fish to water. Hope your first crop yields fat buds

My last one did, but that was a very long while ago and grown in a spare room....

I wonder if that's why the previous owner sold up? Probably a good idea to get some security cameras.

Previous owner had lived here since it was built in 1968, and went into a home. Her children sold the house. Then there were my tenants who presumably only had one car.

So they’ve had a good run all these years not needing to share their toys. Sadly nothing lasts forever, and now they’ll need to learn to share.

I’ve not bothered to tell them that having three cars here is temporary. One will be sold as soon as I get it fixed and running, the problem child Megane I think I’m going to park at the FIL in Melbourne (once it’s fixed Lols…) to use when using the regular cheap flights from here. We only need one car here working from home.

I think you mean "if it's ever fixed"....

Is it a strata title with common ground or a community title?

I have bought what I am pretty sure is the offending part from a wrecker in Holland which is getting delivered to my hotel in Germany next week to bring home in my suitcase

It’s an odd set up. 5 houses on the wrong side of a creek with a single share bridge access and a shared driveway sort of arrangement to access each houses own actual driveway. All of that is council responsibility.

So a cul-de-sac

Like Ramsey Street.

Kelly street, accidentally

Tassie would be more like Kingswood country.

Kelly street, accidentally

Accidentally?

 

[pink poodle]

Accidentally?

Is there any other way?

 

[Haakon]

So a cul-de-sac

Ha, I suppose so…

 

[Haakon]

Like Ramsey Street.

But with less drama.

oh wait.. never mind.

Pity Alf isn't around, he'd sort it. You'll just have to send Harold.
