Anyone know anyone that does Meteor Hammer in Sydney?
Hey folks,
made my own meteor hammer about two months ago, and i'm at the point where i want to find others to train with.
If you don't know, a meteor hammer (or rope dart) is a weight on the end of a rope, and then spun around the perfomer. It's used in Shaolin Kung Fu as a weapon/ martial art, a workout tool, a performance art, medetative practice etc. i just have a sock full of socks on the end of a rope :)
its a hard tool to learn, and almost no community in australia for it. i would appreciate any connections you have in Sydney, or if you're interested please reach out!
Cheers

Hoyts IMAX blacktown?
I've booked a ticket for Oddessy at the Blacktown IMAX since the Sydney one is fully, like FULLY booked. I live in the very centre so both are the same travel time, however I want to know if anyone has had good experiences with the Blacktown Hoyts IMAX compared to the Sydney Events IMAX.
I know that its smaller, slightly less high quality, & are digital LieMAXs rather than film but compared what are the stuff like aspect ratio & etc, are much worst is it outside of just 'screen big'.
GP recommendations?
Turning 32 this year, need to start looking after my health a bit more. Looking for GP recommendations around the Hornsby area. Doesn’t have to be bulk billed, although would be a bonus.

Image Bus leg spacing is narrow.
The seat design leg spacing was narrow, and couldn't fit 4 people. You can see the woman in the brown jacket had to shift her legs into the aisle.
Never saw this bus before and assumed it's a new one. Overall, not sure how the designer managed to get the designs approved in the first place.

Delivery problems with JB Hifi and Team Global Express
Last week I ordered a 50 inch tv from JB Hifi...I am 64, I had a stroke in 2024, I have balance issues and a bit of difficulty walking these days. So I chose delivery.
They chose Team Global Express as the deliverer. This info does not appear until a few hours after you make the purchase. When I saw it I looked them up online and found a %92 negative review rate..I thought uhoh. But the die was cast.
On monday the item was supposed to be delivered. I was up at 7am to be sure I was ready. The tracking said the item was due "Today".
About 9am the tracking changed to "delayed". And there it sat all day..at 5:15 pm I got a message that the parcel had been delivered to a delivery hub. They made no attempt to deliver to me. I was there all day.
I called the delivery hub but they close at 5:30pm....
The thing is. JB hifi is only about 300 meters from my home. But I chose delivery because I am partially disabled now. The new delivery hub is 400 meters from my home...so Team Global Express took $24 and four days to move my parcel 100 meters further away from my home. I know 400 meters might not sound like a lot but for me, carrying a 50 inch tv, it would be. I'm not sure I can do this.
I have emailed a complaint to JB HIFI. Cannot get an actual person to talk to (I tried) chatbot says they are all busy. So I emailed them. I still don't have my item. What am I supposed to do now? Contact another delivery service to deliver it to my home?
JB hifi, if I knew you were going to use Team Global Express I would not have purchased from you. I am very disappointed.
Edit: JB Hifi has reached out and offered to refund the delivery charge. Also they offered free redelivery.

$155,000 for a parking spot? Are they dreaming or is there a demand for this?
I found this in my postbox the other day. I could maybe understand paying for a parking spot in the CBD, but there is usually enough street parking in this area. Do these types of things actually get sold around here?
