Do you/did you use any cessation aides or methods in particular? I'm close to trying to quit - the rolling tobacco I used to get for about five quid back in the UK (around $10 aud) is now over $90 here for a smaller pouch. Vaping isn't for me I don't think. Anyway, good luck with it.

    Hey! Thanks CEO.

    So we're four days into a ten-day visit to South Australia. First two days were in the CBD and I have to say that whilst the hospy folk are friendly, the general population are indifferent and rude...no spatial awareness or common street courtesy at all. They will literally walk into you rather than give way a little to avoid a collision. Had one oblivious guy carrying an open umbrella down low and so focussed on his phone that he pushed us into oncoming traffic. Twat.

    Took a tram to Glenelg, which is basically SA's St. Kilda and everything you'd expect it to be.

    An hour's drive to the Barossa yesterday. We're in Tununda and had lunch at Maggie Beer's pheasant farm eatery. Great spot, lots of birds to check out in a kind of mini zoo, but at $90pp for what was essentially a menu of various cabbage and lettuce leaves, a chunk of homemade bread, carrot puree and a smidge of a lamb or chicken slices, I did feel it was a bit of a rip off and profiteering based on her brand.

    We're off to McClaren Vale in the morning, then finishing off with two days on Kangaroo Island, then homeward bound. I thought that SA had a rep for decent weed but we've found nothing, so looking forward to our small stash at home next week :)

    a spray bottle and washable pads work better than a standard mob

    Is that the Enjo brand? We're doing a big house clean today before we go on hols next week. I'm on floor tiles duty and that's what I'll be using. I've been putting it off for weeks but has to be done today.

    Urgh...the nationwide shortage of ADHD meds, specifically in my case Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine), is a real worry. I was first prescribed 40mg then I was given an additional script for 20mg, so 60mg a day all up. But for the second time this year there are no 40s, so I've blasted through my scripts for 20s by having to take 3 a day. My GP clinic can't/won't take on the management of my meds, so I have to get scripts from my psych...and he's on leave and cannot be contacted.

    The system is so rigid. Local pharmacies have heaps of 20s which I don't have a script for, but they can't substitute those for the 40s which I do have a script for. It's infuriating.
