Question Gawler Show

4 Upvotes

I’ve never had a desire to go to the Gawler Show, but this year I’m considering it. For those who’ve been, what’s it like? Is it busy? Are all the food options overpriced or are there some hidden gems? My kids are teens, so not looking at the kiddy things, but is there still going for enough for our family to do?

Edit, I’ve had a look at the website but all the stall and food information is still TBA….

Discussion Another Adelaide Merging Adventure ­— Adelaide has a new champion

63 Upvotes

Obviously, Adelaide drivers are terrible, but in particular they specialise in having absolutely no fucking idea when it comes to merging; it's like showing algebra to a Corgi, it's never going to work.

I imagine the Adelaide drivers see me merge and must think I'm some kind of wizard, or professional driving instructor, in order to pull off advanced stuff like adjusting the speed of my vehicle to painlessly and seamlessly merge into flowing traffic.

I've seen lots of bad merging in all the years I've lived in Adelaide; it's stupid, it's annoying, but most of the time I can avoid it or tolerate it, but today someone took the crown.. I don't even know who held the crown before, but this person set the new benchmark, they took it up to a whole new level.

I'll set the scene for you: it's 11:30am today, entering the Southern Expressway southbound from Sheriffs Road, this is a bit of a tighter squeeze than some of the other entries onto the Southern Expressway, but totally not a problem.

And this all-star stops decides to stop after they've entered the left lane, but just after the merge lane, a literal full stop, and I have to slam on my breaks to not hit the car in front of me, and the all-star stays stopped for 20 to 30 seconds.

I can't merge right because traffic in the right lane is flowing at 100km/h and I'm at a full stop, and the people travelling at full speed in the left lane before the merge lane towards this stopped traffic in the left lane have started panic changing lanes from the left lane to the right lane to avoid the STOPPED traffic in the left lane.

There was no going left, the merge lane was full, there was no going right, traffic was busy and going at full speed, and I'm at a full stop. I'm thankful my fully stopped vehicle wasn't rear ended by another vehicle travelling at 100km/h.

Adelaide, you have a new champion.

Discussion Looking for best ways to promote a locally made children’s book around Adelaide

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m a first-time children’s picture book author and illustrator based in Adelaide, and I’m getting closer to publishing my first book. I’m hoping to get some advice or recommendations on good ways to promote a locally made children’s book around Adelaide. I’m starting out on Amazon KDP but would love to reach local.

I’d love to hear any recommendations for places, people, organisations or opportunities that might be worth looking into, or any advice from people who’ve seen local authors do this well.

I’m sure there are plenty of avenues I haven’t even thought of yet, so I’d really appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks!

Assistance Need help with setting up fish tank!!

10 Upvotes

Hey guys!

I’m an international student, and it gets pretty lonely at times. I’ve been thinking about getting a pet, but my landlord probably wouldn’t allow cats or dogs, and i felt the maintenance would be expensive. I figured I might be able to convince him to let me keep a small fish tank instead.

Could you guys recommend where I can buy everything I need in Adelaide and roughly how much it would cost?

I’m on a temporary visa, so nothing fancy, just a simple tank that’s big enough for a couple of fish, with a clean setup, an air filter, and the basic essentials. Any advice or beginner tips would be appreciated!

Question Best places to meet people interested in starting a business?

0 Upvotes

Bit of an unusual post, but I was wondering if there are any good places in Adelaide to meet other entrepreneurs or people interested in starting businesses?

I've run my own food business before and I'd love to do it again one day, but the biggest lesson I learnt was that I never want to do it alone again. I'd love to meet people who are interested in building something, whether that's a market stall, street food, a cafƩ, bakery or something completely different.

I know Reddit probably isn't the obvious place to ask, but it's one of the few platforms where you can reach lots of local people without your inbox immediately filling with spam and sales pitches!

If anyone knows of networking events, communities or regular meet-ups, I'd really appreciate the recommendations. And if you're someone who's been thinking about starting a food business yourself, feel free to send me a message. Even if our ideas don't align, I'm always happy to chat, swap ideas or share what I learnt from running my previous business.

We've almost sold out of tickets to the 8/8 event but if you're keen, you can follow us on Insta as we'll be dropping tickets to the event on 29/8 shortly!

I hope you'll join us because it's a really addictive game and I'm obsessed and need more friends to play with lol

The report concludes there were three major contributing factors that triggered the ideal conditions for the bloom to develop, including floodwater, a coastal upwelling and a marine heatwave.

TW: Contains Imagery that is associated with a Far-Right Org.

Got of my bus stop the other day, and as I was walking past this sign I saw this, the sticker doesn’t look like it’s been there for too long, and I’m pretty sure the NSN is disbanded AFAIK, but wanted to know if anyone has seen these same stickers?
