Saturday Soiree -- 6th December 2025

@Messylife How is it all going? I hope you've been able to focus and haven't been too overwhelmed.

What you've described with the mental block sounds a lot like my experiences with burnout. Burnout can make it impossible to complete even very straightforward tasks.

I hope you are almost done and can have a relaxing break with lots of self-care. Whether you pass or fail you deserve to be proud of yourself for all of your effort.

what kind of Parrots @Ruby26

Hello @Messylife , @Blackcloud , @GezzaP , @Jynx

@Messylife as long as you get something handed in and it is properly referenced; you won't get a zero. I once couldn't get an assignment in, so I just handed in a summary of the reading I did for it, and I still got some marks (even though I couldn't pass it) and thanks to the 'everything handed in bump', an overall pass for the subject. I didn't even do the actual assignment; I literally just gave them proof I tried and that was enough.

Australian King Parrot, yes I agree @Ruby26 , they are beautiful 😍

I too am a big fan of king parrots @Shaz51 @Ruby26!! I used to visit this place with my mum up in Lamington Nat. Park called O'Reilly's - like a rainforest retreat with heaps of beautiful hikes. There's a spot there where the king parrots and crimson rosellas will come and sit on your arms to eat (the provided and thus not bad for them) bird seed from your hands!! They're such incredible birds, so striking!! 😍

Wow very nice @Jynx 😊
