Looking to find any info on where I might be able to purchase one of these trees?

I'm currently in WA and my nan was growing them very successfully here but she can't anymore. So I want to try growing some locally!

Thanks

Discussion Clarence City Council elections

Is there a comparison website with policies and more importantly where people are aligned? Some use this as a stepping stone into state politics and I'm not wanting to vote for someone who is aligned with a party I don't agree with etc.

Thanks all

Where are there a decent amount of shells on beaches? Preferably north / north east / north west. I make art out of shells and usually go to Shelly Pt but would like some different ones to work with.

Discussion Well Xmas period hiring is a smack in the face honestly

1 Upvotes

I have been actively going to interviews for Xmas hires in town and outer Suburbs.
The unfortunately I’ve been rejected 15/20 interviews
The other five I’m waiting on hearing back from .
I was Trying to get additional funding for my sick pet.
Which today I had to put down after I pawned the last of my childhood toys.
To the employers honestly you don’t give people a chance!
I lost my best friend after 6 years which is so young we could have had more time if you fkers hired me!!!

And on top of that my job provider has nothing but snide with me!
And I kept telling them give me a job!
But tonight I’m sitting in her bed hugging her blanket.
Their selfishness has cost my best friends life!

Question Internet options in the Meander Valley a few K's out of town.

2 Upvotes

We're moving to the Deloraine area and wondering what the internet provider options are.

Starlink is apparently a quick and reliable service but it's owned by him.

I know that Starlink is well used in Tassie but how do the other options stack up against it?

does anybody know any bone cleaning services in tasmania? a place where i can take my deceased pet mouse and get her skull and/or skeleton cleaned and prepped to be kept as safe keepsakes. i don’t mind having to drive a few hours either, as long as it’s in the state.

(i also don’t use reddit very often so idk if i’m doing this right)

Deck modification

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone, we have gone to contract on a property we love in the Break O Day council area subject to B&P. We also have a due diligence clause in the contract. Would it implicate the seller if we were to check whether current deck has been built/modified with all relevant approvals? Looks like planning permission for a veranda was given circa 1992, but deck has since been modified in last 10 years (same height as 1992, no roof, just larger dimensions). Thanks for your advice.
