    Turns the managing director (who’s technically my manager) went to the same high school as I did, only a few years apart.

    Small world.

    I like it so far but it’s day 2. It is nice being busy though.

    So with winter approaching, Australian Knitting Mills seems to be closing down their operations. Or at least that was the just of what I got from the lady in the shop today. They’re an eccentric bunch but if you want some high quality wool made in Australia their products are top notch. I’d be inclined to recommend that people visit the shop (Collingwood) rather than order online as they’re a bit odd, lovely but, odd. https://www.aust-woollenmills.com/

      I kinda want to know the full story here. How they seem to be closing not on their own terms. They are clearly angry about it. How did we get here?

        FWIW I got socks and singlets. For your height, they do a shearers singlet which longer is for bending over while shearing, but for a taller guy it’s just tuck in and stay tucked in.

          Do they do short sleeve t-shirts?

          I have a big issue with singlets.

            They do wool t-shirts. Black or white. $40 which isn’t cheap, but it’s quality. The singlets I got were 38 which is 2.5 the price of chesty bonds which frankly don’t last that long anymore. They did long sleeve tops as well.

    Last week in my current role 🌞 can’t wait. Also just starting the process to see if I can get onto medical cannabis. Submitted a request for contact to a clinic, and speaking with my GP about it tomorrow

      I go through Candor for $29 prescriptions. I like the edibles because you don’t have to fuck around with vaping, bongs, grinding it, the smell, cleaning, etc, etc, etc. These are pretty strong “Stanley Brothers 40:40:40 THC:CBD:CBG Soft Chews 120mg x60 (S8)” @ $ 159. There’s a huge market out there with a ton of products. I found it pretty overwhelming to choose a strain. I also went with White Runts @ $219/30g for flower.

      My GP clinic do not prescribe Cannabis, however the process was easy with one of the many online providers.

      From the day of the first consult, to getting my first shipment was less than a week.

      I’ve had friends who were only prescribed edibles to start with, but I managed to get flower straight away.

      Good luck :)

    Coles order has now been collected. Other than an overloaded bag breaking and causing some egg fatalities all went ok. One item substitution led to me receiving extra cheese, which is always a positive. Now I need to finalise my cooking plans and re-package a few things for the freezer.
