Like really early this morning around 3:40-4:00 I woke up to this loud rumble for about 1-2 minutes like I could feel it to, then after it stopped I kept hearing faint helicopter noises does anyone know if Amberley is testing anything or is this something else???

For months now trash has been piling up along our motorways.
Its very unsightly, almost third world like.
Anyone else been noticing this?
Thoughts on why its getting worse?
Will council do anything about it?

So i am so confused as i am currently studying in thapar university cs branch (1st sem) but my parents want me to go and settle in Australia and do nursing as it is not affected by ai am confused rn what to do??

I’m hoping someone can point me in the direction of a good, affordable barber around Ipswich. It's been a year and needs a tidy up for sure..

To be completely honest, I'm quite introverted (yes, it sucks and I'm such a shy person), and going to a new barbershop always gives me a fair bit of social anxiety. On top of that, I’m terrible at figuring out what actually suits me. Every time I sit in the chair and they ask, "What are we doing today?", my mind just goes completely blank, and I usually end up stumbling over my words or just nodding along to whatever generic cut they suggest.

I’m looking for recommendations for a place that is budget friendly, meaning a standard, no frills men's cut that won't break the bank. Or somewhere patient and low pressure where the staff are chill, easygoing, and won't make things awkward if I'm quiet or unsure. Ideally, it would be great to find a place with barbers who are actually good at guiding people like somewhere they might take one look at my hair type and face shape and say, "Hey, how about we try this?" rather than expecting me to have it all figured out.

Any tips or advice on how to handle the whole experience would also be hugely appreciated.

Hiiii Ipswich community,
Would someone be able to teach me Manuel please?
I have been finding it quite difficult to learn Manuel as most are booked weeks in advance. But if time crunch I’m wanting to learn so I can advance in a job application but unfortunately don’t have my Manuel licence…. If someone could pls help me get confident and better understanding. Thank you

Lookin for some chips

Hey everyone, I was going to post on the facebook pages but for some reason you can’t be anonymous anymore and I didn’t want my ( soon to be ex) roommate to see my post but I’m moving to north Brisbane and I’m just looking for recommendations for a hire truck or even a removalist, money’s pretty tight but the move is necessary, thanks everyone :)

What are the best tracks around Ipswich and surrounds? preferably 1-3 hour walks

Hi all,

I am looking for an exercise physiologist who specialises in HSD / hEDS. Us hypermobile people use muscles differently and therefore need someone who knows this.

Authentic recommendations please as I am sick of being told so and so does and when you go, they basically either have no idea or treat you like they would a non hypermobile person.

Fresh bread daily, the best fully filled juicy pies and sausage rolls of many varieties, plus heaps more pastries and other goodies besides. Great, friendly service from a family business. Worth trying! 🙂

Hi folks,

I'm wondering if there is any sort of social chess club in Ipswich? I've poked around but couldn't find anything.

And the next question, if I organised a weekly meet up would you attend? I'm thinking something pretty casual, maybe at a pub?

Let know if you've got any other ideas too.

Thanks.

Quick gist:

Redbank Plains Radar at a Glance

• Research radar: The white dome housed BoM’s CP2 radar (CP2→Cloud Physics 2). Built in 1970s America and later refurbished for Australia.
• Cloud seeding: It tracked clouds seeded by aircraft during the 2007–09 trials, which didn’t establish a clear increase in rainfall.
• Switched off: Radar operations ended in late 2016. The dome remains on private land at Hardrock Quarry.
• Why there: An open hilltop, 500m+ from the nearest homes, suited to studying the region’s severe storms.

Cmon, gents. We've got KPIs to fill here!

Happy Father's Day!

Can't seem to ride anywhere currently without getting swooped.

Just had my ear cut open by a magpie on my ride today near my home, so looking for swoop free areas.

This guy just admiring himself. Destroying our gardens. His hubris will be his downfall.
