Iβve almost lost my voice, but I am seriously emotional. Seeing Black live has always been a wish of my mine and tonight it came true.
I am so privileged.

I've only just managed to load my car with a full, penultimate load of stuff (and a fucking busted tyre still in the back lol).
All the little jars of spices, the oils and vinegars, random pantry odds and ends, the unbelievable amount of stuff in the bathroom, other stray items like a random desk lamp and bits in various containers just dumped into a box... couch accoutrements...
Had a shower in the old place, thankfully had the foresight to leave a change of clothes out, finally eating my only real meal for the day. I'm going to go straight to the other place, slap a sheet on the mattress and call it a night.
Chuck a sickie tomorrow, start moving stuff up, get tyre organised, clean old place with friend...
I'm seriously laughing at how much I underestimated this. Next time I'll start packing WAY earlier and take more time off!!
For the DDT fam:
Pearl Jam! π€
Wooooooooooo
Awesome! I wish Pixies did solo shows too.
Me, too. I couldnβt get down in time today. βΉοΈ
Sometimes I eat my dinner standing in the kitchen to avoid this exact scenario lol
In front of the tv AND has eyes on the dinner
I just want to eat and watch Samurai Jack in peace lol
I found an easy recipe for Golden Syrup Pudding. Oooo yeah.
I remember golden syrup dumplings
Yep. Very similar.
Staple of my childhood. Yum! Love it on a cold night. My mum put a bit of lemon zest in the pudding mix. Recommend this no matter what recipie you use.
how easy is easy?
some of those pudding recipes take ages and ages to do and then it takes the man of the house approx 15 seconds to eat it
Like easy easy. As easy as making a cake. I used to watch my Nana make it but I couldn't remember the ingredient measurements mainly because she never really used any. Then she steamed it.
Boiled fruit pudding on the other hand lots of fruit, suet, spices etc. Hours on the stove.
I'll take pics of the recipe tomorrow and post them.
Oh yum! Havenβt hadnβt that in years. So delicious with cream.
My Nana used to make it and it was glorious. Gonna talk to my mum tomorrow because I know she'll be interested in making it.
Dare I listen to more WH Hodgson? There's a compendium of ghost stories and another one of those strange Earth stories. I think I might.
In verity I have bought The House on the Borderland. β οΈ
Do give us a review when you're done :)
This hayfever i assume is kicking my ass today. Head and sinuses blocked up and sneezing all afternoon.
the itching is insane
I should probably put all the garden talk in the Gardening Australia thread but itβs not getting much traffic other than my posts
I have to confess that more than a year in, I haven't really explored Lemmy at all, 99% of the time I just go straight to the DT.
Not that I have much to offer to a gardening convo. I attacked my garden with a hedge trimmer today and it looks like a cyclone's been through.
i am so full of enthusiasm that I have to stop myself from starting everything at once.
I'll just start one new thing a week and let that become a new norm.
@CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone Oh dear. Turns out I don't recommend original soju. Realised I didn't actually drink it, so poured a shot tonight and oh god no. No. It's like 17% and just... punches you in the throat. Definitely stick with the flavoured ones. I now know why the people in kdramas grimace!
π don't worry I like the burn. Thanks for the heads up.
Thank you everyone for the kindness. I have a big tray of roast veg in the oven so dinner/lunch is sorted and yummy at least. Will be having an early night and hopefully a sleep
Goodnight mate :)
Well, the assignment is done and submitted. It's not very good. Hopefully it is enough to pass.
I really have no interest/enthusiasm for this subject, but it is compulsory in the diploma. I guess I just see how I go half arsing it and if I fail try to kick myself into trying a bit harder next go around.
I think I'll be happy if I hear a few songs from Ten tonight to be honest.
If I hear Black, I am complete!
Which pre-minced or -chopped ginger is the least ass? Maybe I should Nutribullet some fresh stuff and freeze it? Just for use in smoothies. Any wisdom?
I use Gourmet Garden but your idea is better.
I second gourmet garden
Hahahahahahahahahaha fuck me, of course I had to be careless and hit a kerb so hard I got a flat tyre on top of everything else... perfect timing...
Luckily roadside assist came very quickly but now I need to get a new tyre within 2 days π anyone have tips on how to find a good tyre shop? I have no frigging idea. Need it done pretty quickly...

I'm eating After Dinner Mints before dinner like a proper rebel.
Itβs after 8 somewhere!
They're my chocolate of the month right now. Bought the Aldi ones because they have the little pillowslips. Coles do not.
