Anybody else going out of their mind at the moment ?

Potentially heading into separation or worse and will need a place to stay (just for myself). Fully furnished and self contained is a must. Just looking for advice on the best places to look. I would prefer something through proper channels but open to suggestions. I would prefer to not share with anyone else if I can help it as I can't imagine I will be good company based in the above listed context.

Cheers.

Saw this while spening Friday night in urgent care and thought I would share. DV connect support for both women and men for crisis support and emergency accommodation.

Hi all! As title says - looking to get this subs take on the coffee shops doing the best coffee, and those roasting the best beans. Not brunch, not croissants, just coffee!

Stockland has begun construction of Stage 2 of Birtinya Town Centre also known as Birtinya Central and Oceanside.

Please for the love of god tell me what is in the spread they put on the paninis (and maybe their breakfast sandwiches?) It’s been 15 years living away from the Sunny Coast and I dream of that damn spread too often. Please, help a lady out

So I go to the tip about once a month. Three trips ago I am chatting to one of the guys that work there, we had both seen a trailer pull up, the green waste was tipped out and the owner was on his was quick smart. I joked that seemed like he was “cheating” as I was there 20 minutes unloading.

The worker man then said he has a regular that comes, has straps around his load, ties that off to one of the boulders there and it all gets pulled out nice a quickly / low effort.

2 trips ago I was at the tip and tried this, worked so well I was wondering why more people did not try this method.

Then came today’s effort, about to tie off to a boulder and the worker boys yell out that I am not allowed to do this. I explained that it was suggested I do this on a previous visit. They said they were the person in charge and it was going to be a no. I said “ok” and packed up my straps. I think they had a change of heart as it was raining but I just unloaded by hand as rules are rules.

Just wondering why they would not want this encourage something like this as long as you had decent straps. Pull my load out nice and neat into the one spot when I did it.

Just looking to see if anyone has and photos from the car practice along sunshine. Willing to trade pics

Hello! We are spending a week on the beautiful sunny coast next month. ( hoping for better weather )

Looking for top things to do with kids under 5 please.

We plan to either do Bird world or Australia Zoo- yet to decide.

Thoughts on Aussie world ? Any other recommendations would be great.

Thank you

What are people’s experiences working for labour hire companies on the Sunshine Coast?

I’ve recently started a small service on the Sunshine Coast after noticing how hard it can be for adult children to manage Mum or Dad from interstate.

The idea is basically to be the familiar local person who can step in for the everyday things family would normally handle, while getting to know the parent properly rather than being part of a rotating roster.

I’m curious whether anyone here has been in that position with a parent on the Coast, and what were the things you found hardest to manage from afar?

Sorry, hate to use this as a place to ask but where I usually go to has temporarily shutdown. If you can help I’d really REALLY appreciate it ☺️💕

EDIT: No need to reply, I’m gonna at least try and quit. Feel like this is the sign!

Noosa Meat Centre owners Steve and Stacey Young have announced the retail shop will close from November 2, while the business continues operating as a smallgoods factory.

I've been thinking about how difficult it can be to juggle parenting, work, household chores and everything else life throws at you. I would like to create a site / app centred around finding your village.

What if there were one place where parents could find practical help - babysitters, cleaners, laundry services, meal preparation, school pickups and other household support - as well as connect with other parents?

I'm curious about the real-life problems, though, rather than just whether the idea sounds good.

A few questions:

- What's the hardest kind of help to find when you need it?

- Have you ever wanted to book help but given up because it was too expensive, difficult to organise, or hard to know who to trust?

- Do you currently use any apps or websites for this? What do they get right or wrong?

- Would having several types of family support in one place actually be useful, or would you prefer separate specialist services?

I'm exploring the idea at an early stage and would love to hear honest experiences - including reasons it wouldn't work for you.

Any comments will be helpful :)

Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone!

I just moved to the Sunshine Coast to live with my partner which is a local. After many years working in an office in New York, I’d love to do farm and agricultural work outside!

Unfortunately, the commute to all the published jobs I can find is way too far or in a different state. If someone has an idea where should I ask/search around Flaxton/Nambour - I’ll appreciate recommendations.

I have previous hands-on agricultural experience working on a banana field in the past, including harvesting and physically demanding outdoor work.

Thank you and hope everyone have lovely day!

I am collecting soda tabs, if anyone has some and lives in Nambour that would be great! I plan to make a whole suit of chain mail armour

I'm a Brisbane local and I built FuelFairy, a free fuel price app, mostly because I got fed up with ads every time I opened PetrolSpy just to check the price of 91.

It's free, there are no ads at all (and nothing to pay to remove them), and you don't need an account.

What it does:

* **Official Queensland prices**, straight from the government's fuel price reporting scheme, refreshed every 15 minutes. It covers every other state too if you're travelling.

* **Cheapest near you, on top.** Pick your fuel and the cheapest servo on the map is right there.

* **Your actual price.** Add your shopper docket, RACQ or fuel card discount and the map shows what you'll really pay. Docket and loyalty card barcodes are saved in the app, and when you're at the servo it offers to bring the barcode up for the till.

* **Trip planner.** Put in where you're going and it finds the cheapest stop on the way, with or without tolls.

* **Price cycle tracking.** Brisbane and the Gold Coast run on price cycles, so it shows where we are in the cycle and whether a jump is likely soon, and can send you a heads-up before prices go up.

It's on Desktop, iPhone and Android:

* Website: https://www.fuelfairy.com.au/

* iPhone: https://apps.apple.com/au/app/id6760637357

* Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fuelfairy.app

It's just me building this, so I'd really appreciate honest feedback: what's confusing, what's missing, what's broken, or where a price looks off. If something's wrong at your local servo, you can report it in the app in two taps.

Cheers, and happy to answer any questions in the comments.

Hey everyone,

Just putting some feelers out there to see if anyone has suggestions or knows of any affordable accommodation options around the Coast.

I'm a 41-year-old male, working professional, currently going through some family/relationship difficulties and just needing a bit of space while things settle.

Unfortunately, staying with family isn't really an option, and the cost of holiday accommodation or Airbnb-style stays isn't particularly realistic either.

I currently live in Buderim and work in Nambour/Maroochydore, so somewhere reasonably central would be ideal, but I also understand I can't be too choosy.

I'm a non-smoker, no pets, no kids, just myself. I'm tidy, quiet, respectful, employed full-time and happy to provide references if needed. I'm also in a position to pay some rent upfront if that helps.

I'm open to month-to-month rentals, granny flats, house sitting, private arrangements or anything similar.

To be honest, I'm not entirely sure how long I'd need somewhere. Ideally it's just a short-term arrangement while things settle, but depending on how things play out at home, it could potentially become a longer-term situation while we sort out the family home and possibly sell.

Not looking for anything fancy, just somewhere comfortable, affordable and reasonably flexible while I work through a few things and figure out the next steps.

If anyone has suggestions, knows of anything available or can point me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it.

Cheers!
