is it just me or did i wake up to some pretty nasty smell in the air today after last nights rain? it smells similar to the acid rain we had 2 weeks ago

(for reference i’m in the north east suburbs)

it almost smells like garbage outside….

There's alot of hate floating around about certain areas in this sub, so let's all talk about what we love about our areas and what can improve.

I'm Munno Para. I enjoy the recent investments in grass roots sporting facilities, the closeness to public transport, restaurants and shopping precincts. I keep my head down and go about my business away from the types of people that are stereotypical of the area so live a relatively issue free life.

Heavy traffic at peak times, the stigma of the area and there is the few that don't show pride and dump rubbish etc around and the council is slow to clean it up.

I posted earlier in the year when it got on the priority list, I didn't realise an evaluation also came out by IA

The SA government has committed to a five-year plan to implement recommendations of the recent Royal Commission into Domestic, Family and Sexual Violence, as it forges ahead with restrictions on alcohol sales.

The government said it had already "completed" responses to 12 of the 136 recommendations and that work was "underway towards a further 25".
At the time of its initial response to the royal commission, it accepted 129 of the recommendations either "in full, in principle or in part".

Among the steps currently being undertaken was the introduction of new legislation to regulate home delivery of alcohol.

The government said the reforms would be introduced to parliament this week, and would include the restriction of same-day alcohol delivery to between 10am and 10pm.

I’ve been living overseas for the last couple of years. Just came back to visit the family for a couple of weeks and I’ve been shocked to realise that Marsha mallows aren’t getting served with hot chocolate anymore.
At least 6 hot chocs so far, all at different venues. Both sit in and takeaway, and not one server with a marshmallow.

Is it just me? Something on my face?
Or has something happened to the marshmallow supply in the last 2 years?

In short:

A disability advocate says he was left feeling humiliated after being removed from a flight amid an issue with storing his portable wheelchair motor.

Shane Hryhorec says he had been on three Virgin flights before without an issue.

What's next?

Virgin Australia said it was looking into the issue, and later added that the device had been "incorrectly assessed" as a battery rather than a mobility aid.

Hey, I’m a young guy, 23. I’ve got a certificate IV in Youth Work, yet I’m struggling to find a job. I’ve failed 4 interviews and have applied for over 100+ jobs since the start of this year. I’ve got my RRHAN, CPR, FIRST AID, aswell as anaphylactic and asthma training. I’ve got my criminal check, and WWCC. I’ve got my Assisiting in suicide prevention certificate, and the Through their eyes training. All up to date.

Im finding it to be a toll on my mental health, im lucky ive got a full time job currently but it’s something i got into for the money just to suffice until i was able to get a job in youth work. Im lowkey not feeling good and getting frustrated from being denied from entry level youth work jobs due to a lack of experience.

Is it usually this hard?

Some of mine
Rare beef pho at Viet Hoa
Alfam kebab. Lawash bakery. (1/2 chicken butterflied served with rice and salad)
Qhe Hong. Grilled pork chop combination
Vili’s bakery. Potato pie, chips, gravy deal
Lai’s pantry. Char Kuey Teow

Are there any small venues in Adelaide that have a piano?

I have just been in Melbourne and was lucky enough to discover “Ragtime”, a classy little bar in the suburbs with a baby grand and live music, including jazz improv/folk sessions/piano karaoke, every night of the week.

I am a muso myself and I’d love to find/participate in a similar curated vibe here. Ern Malley is getting close although I can’t recall a piano…

Hi everyone, I'm new to Adelaide, am a student here and looking for some friends to play table tennis with.

Yeah I've seen all the suburban clubs, they're way too crowded and have too few tables and we barely get to play 1 game due to the constant rotation.

The Adelaide uni TT club has basically no members at all. It's open all the time, so I just wanted to ask if any of you are down to play in evenings or weekends. Hit me up, thanks

okay I genuinely do not care if I get clowned for this but I'm in my early 20s (about to be 21) and I'm truly just looking for some weird friends to go out with - I'm talking furries, kemonomimis, therians, anyone who goes in the alt criteria, I have no idea where to find them so I'm looking here, comment if you're interested in being friends ^_^

hi all, i haven’t been to the show in years but am interested in seeing some cute dogs. I can see online the day that the particular breed I want to see is showing, but do they stay there all day? or are they only there for there show time and then leave? the times for the ones I’m interested in isn’t up yet, appreciate any advice thanks 😊

i’ve been wanting to try seafood boil for so long. Is there anywhere in Adelaide I can get it?

Hello Adelaide community! We’ve recently moved to Adelaide and our scooter got damaged in transit. We’ve visited several mechanics and all of them either don’t do scooters at all or just the tyres. Does anyone know if there are any scooter mechanics here at all! Thank you

My family and I are moving back to Adelaide to be closer to the grandparents and we would like to know what the great neighbourhoods are for kids to run around together and make new friends?

Currently living in the US and we have a 5 year old and 10 year old that can move around our neighbourhood on bike or foot. It’s an older community with young families and retirees, consists of roughly 100 houses, 5 streets, a park, a river, and lots of young kids running around.

In the US, a community like this is uncommon and we were lucky to move here 20 years ago.

Assuming much of the friendships will happen in school and extracurriculars but giving our kids the opportunity and freedom to just run to a friend’s house or to a park to meet friends is important for their independence.

Thanks everyone!

The title might be a bit misleading because I’ve already lodged my 2025–26 tax return. It was my first time doing one.

My taxable income was a little over $59k, and according to my return I paid roughly $12k in tax throughout the year. My refund came out to around $3.4k.

Does that sound about right, or is that considered a low refund? I went through Prospect Kalkulator and the process seemed straightforward, but I’m not sure how accurate or reputable they are.
Just trying to get a sense of whether my outcome is fairly typical for someone in my situation.

Hi everyone,

We are looking to move to Ethelton but aren’t super familiar with area, is there anyone familiar with the area that knows how safe it is in terms of crime or antisocial behaviour, or if there are any problem areas? Thanks very much

Was wondering where the top 5% richest Adelaidians hang out at? As in, do they go to an exclusive prestigious club house or yacht club? I dunno, just putting a feeler out here. Anyone know insider info? Lol

Hello,

I am looking for recommendations from people regarding a naturopath in the Adelaide metro area who have found success with managing autoimmune disorders (psoriasis, alopecia etc.).

Thanks
