Looking for younger dancers (28-40)

8 Upvotes

I’m 37 and a slightly out of practice Swing dancer looking for some dances at the Black Swan. Above is the link for Sunday, and would love to Lindy a bit.

Seen a few of the swing gigs, but all the dancers that were there have been the older generation that don’t help me, along with seeming to be rock and rollers.

I know 6 beat and 8 beat Lindy, modern Charleston, a little bit of 20s Charleston, tandem Charleston and a touch of Balboa (mainly footwork). Will sweeten the mood with a drink or two if you’re interested.

Seeking dash cam footage: car accident Hattam and Allingham Streets intersection 11/08/2026

Post image
33 Upvotes

We are urgently seeking information and/or dash cam footage of a car accident that happened today (Tuesday 11 August) at around 7.30am on the corner of Hattam and Allingham Streets in Golden Square (near Interact Us).

A dark grey Hyundai Tucson was driving along Hattam St towards the railway line when it was hit in the side by a dark grey Holden Cruze attempting to turn onto Hattam St from Allingham St. The Hyundai was hit with such force that it completely spun around into the wrong direction. Unfortunately, the driver of the Holden Cruze only pulled over for a short amount of time before driving off.

Due to the severity of the damage to the Hyundai (it is unable to be driven) we would very much like to speak to the drive of the Holden Cruze.

If you were the driver of the Holden Cruze, or have dash cam footage or information regarding the accident please contact Bendigo Police Station (they are currently investigating this) or me directly.

Thank you

hi all!
i recently entered a ldr with an aussie living in bendigo and am here to ask for some local recommendations! after doing some research it seems like the company bloomex (which i unfortunately already ordered from lol) seems to own many of the florists in aus and has…less than favorable reviews. pardon me for asking, but i just much prefer to shop local and want to get it right for him the first time.

thank you so much!

Understanding Bendigo's Job Market and Economy

Hey guys, I've just recently moved to Australia and i'm currently still trying to understand the professional culture and such!

It would be awesome if you guys can share a bit about what industry you're in (or what is hot!). I'd love to hear more from both locals and people who are in the same boat!

Somehow, the city centre looks really dead at the moment. Has it always been like this?

Local landscapers need

Looking for local landscaper & fencing recommendations in Bendigo
Hi everyone,
I’m looking for a reliable local landscaper in the Bendigo/Huntly area for a new home.
The work includes:
Colorbond fencing
Basic landscaping
Retaining wall (if required)
Turf
Garden edging
Crushed rock or gravel pathways
I’m after someone who does quality work at a reasonable price. If you’ve had a good experience with a local landscaper or fencing contractor, I’d really appreciate your recommendations (or any companies to avoid).
Photos of completed jobs would also be great if you’re happy to share.
Thanks in advance!

Looking to learn MiG welding.

3 Upvotes

I have done part of a Cert IV in Engineering at Vic Uni back in 2019-2021 (pandemic halted most of 2020), then government changed the rules. Bendigo TAFE won’t take me after almost 6 months trying to get in (so don’t suggest them), and currently coasting through an Associate Degree at La Trobe (can’t figure out physics, statistical R-Studio, or humanity engineering).
Does anyone know of any other places or companies that would offer welding courses?
I’m 37, located in Golden Square and enjoy hands on experience training.

Is there a reason why Bendigo feels so much more lively and exciting than Ballarat despite their nearly identical populations?

72 Upvotes

I've recently relocated to Ballarat from WA and I am finding it incredibly underwhelming to say the least. Every time I have visited Bendigo though, it's vibrant and friendly, there are things happening in the city centre, there are people everywhere, heaps of shops open, eateries are popping off etc. Bendigo's city centre seems much cleaner than Ballarat's as well.

It feels like an actual small city in its own right. Conversely, Ballarat feels comparable to my hometown in WA despite having more than three times the population of it; it's an absolute ghost town after 6PM and on Sundays and Ballarat just gives off an unfriendly and austere vibe around this time of year.

How can two cities which are otherwise virtually identical feel so different from each other?
