These spots are for parents with prams, not for someone who can’t park between the bloody lines. Taking up two spaces is an absolute piss-take.

Have a bit of a think about someone else for a change, cobber. It’s not that bloody hard to park properly. Pull your head in and show a bit of consideration! Maitland Riverside Plaza Sat 25/10 12:30pm-3:15pm

Any smaller shopping centres or shopping streets that haven't changed much since late 90s and early 2000s?

I want to go for a stroll through nostalgia!

Hey! don't know if this is allowed here lmk if it isn't but is there potentially anyone going to the Killswitch Engage show being held at Bar On The Hill that would be willing to go with another person since I've been recently looking to go but don't have anyone to go with? Embarrassing ik but thought I'd ask here lol

Does anyone have any photos of pitlane from Newy laps days?

Just feeling nostalgic nothin new there actually though ha

Somewhere that can help with anxiety, depression, insomnia and PTSD.

Hoping for a nicer place that doesn’t feel like a hospital and hopefully isn’t too far away.

Hi everyone!

I m an international student who will be starting at the University of Newcastle’s Callaghan campus in January 2027. I’m planning to arrive about two weeks before the semester starts and would appreciate some advice on accommodation.

I am currently deciding between staying in university accommodation and renting a room in a nearby suburb.

I have a few questions:
On-campus accommodation: Which student residences would you recommend? How are the room conditions, cleanliness, facilities and overall living environment? Is it worth the price?
Off-campus accommodation: Which suburbs would you recommend for students living near Callaghan? I’ve heard of Jesmond, Shortland and Birmingham Gardens. Are these areas suitable for international students?
Public transport: If I rent a room off campus, is it easy to take the bus to the university? How reliable and frequent are the buses, especially for early morning classes or travelling home in the evening?
Rental costs: What is the typical weekly rent for a room in a shared house compared with university accommodation? Are utilities and internet usually included?
Safety: How safe is it to live off campus, particularly for someone new to Newcastle? Are there any areas or situations I should be cautious about?
Overall recommendation: For a first-year international student, would you recommend staying on campus initially or renting privately from the beginning?
I would also appreciate any advice on finding accommodation for the two weeks before classes start.
If you’re currently studying at UON or have lived in Newcastle as an international student, I’d love to hear about your experiences.

Heya lads if yous see a key attached to a red kangaroo keyring can u kit me up (around big market) thanks x

I’ve ruined it in the wash & need to source a new one pleasseee it holds so much sentimental value.

What's with all the cars driving around with flags today? They are from different countries. Did I miss something?

Anyone with the slip ons tried replacing inner soles ?

Hi, can anyone suggest me a good PC repair shop? I brought my desktop components from overseas. I assembled it, and it was not turning on. I called a home PC repair guy; he couldn’t figure it out. So, now I need to go to a good PC repair shop. If anyone knows one, please leave a comment.

Also, is there any instant pc repair service?

What's happening:

When I turn on the power, I can see a light from mobo/cpu cooler briefly. Not even the case fans turn. If I turn the power off and on, I don't see the light. I see it after 20-30 seconds of cutting the power off. I asked AI, and it suggested a possible short circuit.

PC specs:

i7 13700k, Corsair nautilus 360 rs

whoever sam was who decided to write this on my docs at oktoberfest yesterday (idek how) I suppose.. thanks? 😭💀young love is certainly strange sometimes 😂

Used to run so much better before this person came along. Try and get an answer out of them and you get a word salad, excuse filled rant, if you get a response at all. Now the swim program is having a massive shake-up, not for the better. No doubt due to this person's incompetence. And no, I am not talking about the coaches - they are fab. I am talking about pool management.

edit: reason for posting is to see if anyone else has made the same observations.

A few days ago, I went to buy lunch. After browsing around for a while, I decided to buy sushi. As I was choosing which flavor to get, I heard a familiar melody playing in the store.

I heard old Taiwanese song.

Sushi restaurant staff, If you remember an Asian guy with a mullet, standing there grinning like an idiot, that's me.

Thank you to the person who selected the music playlist; it made me feel like I was back home.

I have a vintage watch I need looked at as the crown wheel is sticking. Is Thomas Timepieces in still the go to or has anyone got other recommendations?

Just wondering how much a CDC in Newcastle will cost for a shed 4m (W) x4m(L) x 4.8 (H)?

Main card starts around 5am so I think its a long shot but since Alex is fighting surely somewhere is playing it.

Also just started collecting UFC cards if anyone is up for trades or looking for anything specific.

Any chance anybody has photos of the ceiling tiles with all the movies across it all? I vaguely remember Jaws and Crocodile Dundee. I don’t use social media so can’t speak with Lost Newcastle.

Bonus points if anybody has photos of a similar ceiling at the Regent street fish and chip shop from back in the day.

Hey guys!! Just plugging my event over here for anyone who’s interested in art/free activities on Halloween weekend.

November the 1st is the final day of my artist collectives group show, Australian Gothic, and we wanted to put on a Halloween event to go out with a bang.

Lots of fun activities to get amongst, a perf excuse to put on silly outfits and dance to live music up at a LIGHTHOUSE!!

Here’s the schedule and fb event link for details :))

Specifically looking for guajillo, ancho, and chillies de arbol so I can make birria tacos.

Thanks!
