What cheeses me off

[dajop]

Tell me you're over 55 years old without telling me

And not from Victoria.

Durry ! Love it, haven't heard that one in a long time.

I thought it was 'dhurry'.

Durries and darts: the quintessentially Aussie slang for cigarettes - ABC listen

Australians have many specifically Aussie words for many things, but there are almost TOO many words out there to describe cigarettes.

For when one needs to complete their smoke rapidly.

Also performed as Murtceps. I recall being at a recording session in around 1969.

Services NSW locations that do not provide toilet facilities. Disgraceful.

I do a bit of learner driver mentoring - ppl (without access to a car and/or licencsed driver to take them) who cant get their learner hours up can join a program via their local community centre or PCYC. Its a good scheme and as the boss said to us newbie mentors : it will improve your own driving as well.

So what gives me the goat are L plates made invisble by tinted glass. Mentioned this to one learner and her mum this morng at the local coffee shop - it was as if I had insulted both of them..

If I cant tell you're a Learner driver then I'm not likely to tolerate much of a mistake or hesitation on the road without rudely letting you know..

And as for the (NSW) habit of tucking P plates in behind the number plate, so its all but invisible...

WCML - Hotels need a physical card on check in and can't use your mobile wallet...i wanted to tell them i didn't have one just to see what would happen, but wasn't in the mood for bull

I told the Hilton at Rome airport that when I was checking in. They had no issue, and just moved on.

When a courier places a 1.5 metre high 22 kilo parcel in front of the building door !! which opens outwards
Yes on the door . It was quite fiddly to maneuver it.
I mean I had already answered the buzzed, courier declined to place inside the foyer and left it outside leaning up against the door

I preferred the Indelible Murtceps!

Friend went to one of Spectrum's concerts, she says the Murtceps who performed first as a warm up got booed offstage, they then came back on as Spectrum.....

Yes I went first time and loved Mark Kennedy drumming.
Saw double bills of spectrum and indelible later.

Got into Ayers Rock due to Mark Kennedy as well

WCMO is Qantas cancelling the last flight from out of ADL to MEL on the Sunday of Gather Round (I mean, really) and force you to cut it too fine on an earlier flight, or go later on Jetstar. Allegedly with a meal voucher included but not seat selection.
Edit: looks like we do get seat selection and I can see a food voucher is included (but hopefully I will have some lounge passes by then and eat there instead). So not all bad I guess!

You are correct it was always the Indelible Murtceps. I was typing shorthand.
Mike's explanation was Murtcepts was concert music and Spectrum was dance music.

Waiting for parcel to arrive from Australia Post. I'm home in an apartment. They send a picture of trying to put it in the letter box. If they walked 5 metres they could ring my doorbell. FFS

I got the notification in app re a successful delivery (not Aus Post).

Went outside to look.

Where da parcel?

Looked again at the photo
… taken at a completely unrelated address 5km away

Onto the company who managed to get the driver to go back and get it and bring to me.

Which he did.

His ‘van’ looked lime something ten minutes from being crushed into a cube at a wreckers

What annoys me is I think this is a new postie and it is a bit confusing because the shops downstairs don't have letterboxes just the residents and one shop is rarely open
I helped him yesterday with two parcels on how to deliver them and now he can't deliver mine

Its December, Aussie Post is hiring any one they can to get the Chrissy parcels delivered

My WCMO are people that toss their ciggies out their window. Its 2025, why are they still doing this? I feel like dobbing them in the to NSW EPA

 

[Aeryn]

Id ask it is 2025 why is anyone still smoking?
