Voted for the king parrot cause the apostle bird was not available for voting on.
We have a family of king parrots that turn up semi regularly. During the fires we where leaving berries and bits of apple out for them.

Edit: The boobook was not available for voting. While I haven't seen one I hear one most nights at this time of year.

There are a family of these idiots who have taken up residence on one of the traffic islands in the main street of Ballarat. I always walk by there when walking the dog and never mind giving them a wide berth if they're feeling expansionist.

It's a shame they've already been eliminated. I really dig their vibe of belligerent stupidity.

The masked lapwings at work like to set up on the rooves of different buildings. Sure works well in western Sydney where the temp is generally warm. Theres a pair that set up shop on the roof of the science block and will scream at you when you walk up the stairs.

I'm pretty sure bribing the super is a crime. Not certain though, 'cause that wasn't on the written assessment.

Also I passed and am now FORKLIFT CERTIFIED :cool:

Somehow nailed my first job interview since moving back to Brisbane, for an entry level help desk role where I don't have any prior experience. Got an official call back with an offer a few hours later, time to escape job application hell before it has a chance to do any permanent damage.

If you're in Victoria and near-ish the north side of Melbourne, or at least don't mind an excursion, do yourself a favour and go to Mr Nice Guy's Bake Shop in Ascot Vale. loving best cupcakes you'll ever have, and all it's all vegan. They've got a good general allergen-free selection of baked goods too.

I am currently enjoying a choc walnut cookie the size of my hand.

I go there all the time, it's excellent.

One thing I did discover the fun way is that the blue food dye in the icing of their cookie monster cupcakes is very... persistent. I looked like I'd been huffing paint after eating one. Was very tasty though.

Safe to remove unless you're doing something advanced with lights or customisation

It's lights and custom poo poo like making the "w" key on your keyboard run a tiny macro instead of being W, or maybe potentially running fingerprint scanners or some poo poo, but 99% of what services can do is covered by the default windows drivers.

Commbank wants to verify my ID. I have to take my ID into a branch because the answers I gave to the verification questions don't match what they have on record. One account is at least 40 years old and the other at least 30. I have no idea which specific ID I gave them when I opened the accounts. Some have my middle initial and others have my full name and I guarantee that's the issue.
