Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

Hi All

There is a thread operating on the Lived Experience Forum under Night Shift where members who are having trouble sleeping for any reason give a bit of a shout-out, to see if there is anyone else sleepless and looking for company. It's been such a great thing, I thought I would start one over here too.

I have had the odd few nights where I have woken up on and off, and my kids have been having a bit of trouble some nights too, depending on what has happened during the day.

Being a carer can be lonely too, so if you are making an after-midnight cup of something hot, and wonder who else might be doing that too, maybe have a look-in here and see if anyone else is about.

I don't want another renovators special. It took us so long to do the little we did and cost us a fair bit.

Rainbow lorikeets are not doing too well in Qld. Getting sick and paralysed.

Had to get a second photo taken of the bathroom - denture sitting in glass of water on sink .. yikes!!

Had not heard about the lorikeets ... is quite upsetting.

@Former-Member, it was almost two weeks. They were busy with a fair backlog of work when we left it there, and they had trouble sourcing the faulty part. Usually we don't have too much trouble getting bits and pieces, but with a classic car it's always a possible.

@Appleblossom, does anyone know what's wrong with the Rainbow Lorikeets? That doesn't sound good. 😞

@Former-Member, could be worse. Try looking up "real estate photo fails" for a few laughs. I found one where, for some unknown reason, there was an upright piano in the bathroom, opposite the toilet. ???

Re: Hot Chocolate Anyone ?

I recall seeing a house listed once @Smc where someone was asleep in bed in a dreadfully messy room. Our place is average enough as it is ...

Hi @Appleblossom & @Former-Member

We could gladly send you thousands of very healthy Rainbow Lorikeets from here (WA).

They are a feral pest here - were never naturally on the West coast of Australia.

Someone introduced them here, several decades ago.

We have a native Collared Lorikeet much further up north (not here), & that looks different.
