Where would be the best place to get one of those refurbed tiny Lenovo desktops in the sub $250 range? And also, (from minicalhoon2) would it run bedrock Minecraft?

ReBoot-It? Reebelo?

I was looking at an old photo from a scrapbook I found and I was trying to see something a bit clearer and started to do that two finger zoom in thing you do on digital photos...technology really has changed things.

wooo trench base level defined and area cleared.

now to dig the trenches. seven in total, a long central with four branches that slope down into it until the bottom of the run where it intersects with a 90 degree length that goes to the exit. Trenching time. Time to trench.

...

Done: Tomato tart in both GF and standard, bacon quiche in normal plus onion free. Another round of washing up then I do both versions of spinach. Cake tomorrow. Decorating, last shop, and meat marinading Friday. This is exhausting.

I feel like I want to treat myself to a meal or something this week.

I’ve been doing so much home cooking to save on costs it’s actually been ages since I had a meal out.

I do look at a lot of reviews and photos of food at cafe but with the increased cost most of it seems to be a very poor way to spend money.

On the other hand I’m awfully tempted to try out Marlo’s Schnitzel maybe or purchasing a mystery pizza.

Yes, mystery pizza, you pay for it for a reduced cost but you don’t actually know what you’re going to get till you pick it up.

It’s an initiative to save on wasting food and ingredients.

Oops. Yeah Marko’. Stupid auto correct.

I just want somewhere local in the area without really travelling out of my way when I go to and from Southland later in the week.

I could alternatively pick up a chicken schnitzel sandwich from my local around the corner. They were pretty cheap and didn’t skimp on the salads I asked for.

avo pizza on south near nepean intersection used ot do a fuckin' great parm, but i think they changed hands so can no longer vouch.

BigPig is a couple mins walk off chesterville, so depending on your route could be on the way. Also morris moor, fat bobs, and a couple other fun places around chesty

Nurse Gibson is keeping a close eye on me.

Edit: I'm going to be extravagant and get take out for dinner. Usually it's a pay day treat but fuck it.

Watsonias punching it!

Dosed them up with a lot of potassium a few weeks ago and with the watering system in (which I'm so very glad I did that, has taken a lot of stress out of things) they're loving it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

They look amazing! I need to get a watering system, keep forgetting to water the plants
