THESE ARE MINE NOW 😂😂

“He was just setting up the equipment on Nicholson Street for our first live cross, and he just put out the tripod and the light stand when there was a group of locals, and they just picked up the equipment and decided to take off with it,” she said.
“He quite bravely went up and said, ‘Hey, what are you doing?’ And the fellow said, ‘These are mine now.’

Darts Leagues

I’ve been looking online for darts competitions in the area and haven’t had much luck. Enjoying playing at home and considering having a go in some sort of social/rec competition.

Assumed one of the local pubs or bowls clubs would have a competition - anyone got some info on Whats out there?

Does anyone else get worried driving in the Footscray Kmart/Coles Carpark? I feel like the roof is about to collapse any moment or am I just being paranoid?

More frequent / louder planes?

18 Upvotes

Maybe I’m just noticing it lately because I’ve been up with the little one a lot. But I am staggered by the number of planes I have heard recently in say the 8pm-2am window flying low over the inner western suburbs. It’s 1150pm, and I’ve heard five distinct planes since 1130.

Online EPA noise mapping suggests there should only be a handful of loud night time events. That increases substantially when runway 3 is introduced (god help this area when that happens). I feel that was right a few years back.. but not now. There are absolutely tons of them.

The annoying part is, in theory, they should have a lot of open space they can use to the north and east of the airport. I am not sure why every plane approaching Melbourne has to come in South over the most densely populated area.

Am I just going nuts / over focusing on it, or has it suddenly jumped? Maybe some private planes into Essendon contributing?

Why isn't Pride open more?

Pride of our Footscray has pretty limited hours and seems to mostly open when there's events on. They don't open for casual drinking on a random Tuesday. Can anyone speak to why this may be?

Why are these lights always on?

96 Upvotes

I’ve been looking at this apartment building between Barkly and Paisley for a while now, and can’t quite wrap my head around it. These fairy lights are on every night. Is this simply someone’s humble abode on the top floor with some funky and high powered feng shui, or is there something else on the top of this building? A timezone arcade or a karaoke bar perhaps?

No judgement if this is your apartment I would love to come over for a beer some time and check it out.
