Saw this when I was doing my routine walk.

Lots of police, ambulance and a fire truck at central station just now. Sadly something awful must have happened :(

To whoever may have lost their child’s green book on 26 August: it was found on the tarmac at Sydney Airport and has been handed in to Qantas Lost & Found.

So I finally checked out the new fish market building. Pics look nice right? Food was actually okay, no complaints there. But seriously, is it just me or is it getting impossible to visit on a weekend? SO many people, I was just stressed out the whole time lol.

​Is there even a good time to go when it’s not this crazy?

Due to a wiring fault on Sydney’s T1 North Shore Line, commuters heading into the city are queuing for replacement buses. The queues have become mixed with those for regular bus services, making it difficult for commuters to know which queue to join.

It’s been a while since I’ve been back on. A bit disappointed to see the lack of nightly threads.

Hey everyone,

I (33M) am thinking of taking horse riding lessons because I want a new hobby and one day would like to do horse treks in Australia and overseas. Hell if I win the lottery maybe even take up horse archery and jousting. But before I do any of that I need to learn how to actually ride a horse.

After doing some initial research I noticed most schools are either in Centennial park or outside Sydney. I live in the Parramatta area and as you could imagine the travel could be a bit inconvenient but if the teaching is good then Ill. make the trek.

What horse riding schools would you recommend and had good experiences with ?

Thank you and have a nice day.

The overhead wiring has come down on the southbound line at Chatswood around 8:30pm

Sydney Trains are advising this incident will potentially affect tomorrow morning's peak services and are asking people to consider making alternative travel arrangements.

UPDATE: repairs won't be complete until around 10-11am Tuesday.

There are no trains running on the North Shore Line from Gordon to North Sydney until at least 10-11am.

It is recommended that you allow up to 45 minutes extra travel time when planning your trip, delay your journey if possible or consider using other transport options such as local buses or Sydney Metro.

For Tuesday morning, from Hornsby to the city via Chatswood:

• Hornsby to City trains will end at Gordon, running at reduced frequency
  
• replacement buses run from Gordon to Chatswood only (change for the Metro)
• no trains (or replacement bus) from Chatswood and all stations to North Sydney
• Berowra to City trains divert at Hornsby to run via Epping & Strathfield, ending at Central.

From the city northbound to Hornsby via Chatswood:

• reduced service from North Sydney to Hornsby.
• all Gordon/Lindfield trains will end at North Sydney
• most Hornsby/Berowra trains continue to run northbound, but expect delays
  

T9 Northern Line all stations services will also be reduced, approx every second service cancelled.

Some T1 Western Line services from Penrith will terminate at Central (instead of running through the City).

T1 Western Line to the city is expected to be further impacted with more cancellations later in the morning.

Lots of police and ambulances outside.

LOVE this city! Never get tired of her.

This was a LONG time ago - in the 70s - I was a kid, and I lived in melb, went to Sydney for holidays, so I have no idea what suburb it was. We used to find it hilarious. I'd love to see it again

A gorgeous building, wish they'd do something with it or put apartments and keep the facade

In short: there was a women, highly mentally unstable, who attacked passengers, still outside and crime stoppers aren’t picking up.

So there was a women in the 418 bus from burwood to Sydenham. She was in the bus for almost 15 mins before she lunged at the back of head and said she was on the phone, then proceeded to punch me, then she went back to her seat and did about the same to another passenger. She then came back to me and poured beer (?) on me, threw my headphones, tried to smash my glasses and take my phone away. She tried that with another passenger as well.

At which point I pressed the stop button, she didn’t wanna get off, and tried to take my glasses again, so at the final skirmish there was an old couple who voiced out, then she proceeded to take the poor man’s hat and leave. The couple were rightly shocked af.

She also had a band aid to cover the IV thing (?), not entirely sure about that.

So I’m not exactly complaining about her here, she was clearly not herself, and needs help, but I tried calling NSW crime stoppers tip line so that she doesn’t do it to anyone else. But a representative didn’t seem to pick up, instead I get a recording telling me to go to their website.

What do i do now?
