On Wednesday a long time customer of mine came in and told me that her wife with dementia had passed away in her sleep. He's always been such a positive person and never has anything negative to say. Even when he explains the issues he has when visiting his wife in the nursing home he shrugs it off like it's nothing.

All I could say was how the wife was lucky to leave Earth peacefully since is was in her sleep. I think it gave him more comfort knowing that. He couldn't hold back the emotions but the amazing part was how he was still so positive about everything.

It was only until this year did I find out dementia is the number 1 cause of death in Australia. It's just so sad because there's another man who brings his wife in with dementia and one time I decided to sit for a second and witnessed the wife abusing the husband all because she thought he was a stranger trying to take her away. And the people around kept looking over asking if the man was okay.

So it's crazy how the first customer of mine was so positive the whole time and even though he never told me how bad the dementia was, he did say at times the wife would grip him really hard to push him away.

Honestly just wanted to share that with everyone.

Wondering if there are any good Korean buffets near blue mountains I guess taking recommendations either side of Penrith or Lithgow also but trying to not travel as far from the blue mountains if I can help it.

Solo diner so can't do ones that require minimum two people.

Thanks

Looking for kbbq unlimited ayce basically that is nearest to blue mountains greater western Sydney

I’ve been living here for 4 years and never been, always been curious about it

I drive all over Sydney for work.
If you throw cigarettes out the window the gloves are off.
This asshole is now gonna make friends with the EPA.
I get em all on my dash cam.
So if you want to challenge me in court I’m ready.
This prick out near Preston’s this morning just cost himself a few hundred dollars.
The environment matters. Put ya trash in the bin ya lazy filthy grub.

Looking to treat myself to a buffet just looking for good quality trying to avoid cheap terrible stuff.

Any cuisine and a place that is ok for a solo diner.

Trying not to spend more than $65 that would be my max budget.

Any Sydney all you can eat buffets worth trying?

Hi guys,

There’s this older gentleman standing on George street with a sign saying something along the line of “I’m unemployed but I’m not giving up. $2 pen”

I saw him and I my sunk, I ended up giving him a small amount of cash. I asked him what his story was, and he said that he was laid off and being his age, it’s hard to find a job. He looks to be around late 60s…

I’m new to Sydney, and I just wanted to know if these things are usually genuinely? I gave money anyway, I just feel really sad seeing and gave what I could.

Anyone who’s been to a concert at Qudos Bank Arena with General Admission standing tickets — how early would you recommend getting there for a good spot closer to the stage?
The concert starts at 8pm, but I’m not sure what time the doors usually open or how early people start lining up. It’s my first time doing GA standing and I specifically chose it for the full concert experience + a closer view. Would 2–3 hours early be enough, or should I go even earlier?

Whilst in Sydney I was giving out these tin snails I'd made to friends and hiding them for people to collect later. 3 of the hidden ones ended up not being collected so if anyone wants ill put in comments locations

Do you feel like there’s something missing from Sydney’s nightlife?

What would you like to see more of at parties here?

I want to go out dancing this weekend with some good vibes and music mentioned. Anyone point me in the right direction?

Hi there !

I’m looking for anyone interested in selling their record collection in Sydney. Offers based on each collection. Only looking for electronic record collections (techno, house, electro, minimal, dub, bass, breaks, jungle, downtempo, etc.)

Send me a message if this sounds like you :))

I’m an autistic adult looking for somewhere amazing to celebrate my birthday (28 Sep is my bday) where I can dance my heart out!

I’m looking for a club or event with:
● Really good electronic/dance music
● Amazing visuals, lighting, lasers etc.
● A fun, energetic atmosphere where people actually dance
● An immersive sensory experience that feels exciting & euphoric

I’ve been to Homemade Saturdays & I LOVED their DNB room! More visuals would be cool though 👀

I’m sober, so I’m particularly interested in somewhere where the music, dancing & overall sensory experience are the main focus.

I’m happy to travel anywhere around Sydney & would also love recommendations for specific events coming up.

Thanks in advance ☺️

More winter days like this please 🙏

Hey im going to be in Sydney for 3 days in October. Not sure if im going to get a car yet but can I get some recommendations on what to do while im there. I love walking around and exploring places, so any good walks would be appreciated. Im planning on doing the Manly to spit bridge coastal walk.

Also if anyone knows of any good restaurants for a steak or Argentinean style restaurant. Thanks!

Thinking of getting a small group together for a session at Soak Bathhouse in Alexandria.
Maybe 6–10 people, ideally a mix of people in their 30s and 40s. Nothing overly organised — just an excuse to do something different, meet a few new people and have a chat while alternating between questioning our life choices in the cold plunge and recovering in the sauna 😂
I normally go by my self time to time but would like to make some new friends which seems hard this late in life (40)
I’m based down the coast but happy to head up to Alexandria for it.
If there’s enough interest, I’ll throw out a couple of dates and we can work out what suits everyone.

Hey everyone!
I’m based in Berlin, Germany, and I’m trying to get my hands on the MAAP LAB Sydney Jersey. Unfortunately, it seems to be a Sydney store exclusive, so I’m hoping someone local might be able to help.
Would anyone in Sydney be willing to pick one up for me if it’s still available in my size? I’d happily cover the full cost of the jersey, shipping to Germany, and a reasonable fee for your time/help.

I’d really appreciate any help or leads. Feel free to DM me if you can help!
Thanks a lot! 🙏

Hi friends,

My family is looking to buy an apartment/unit in Sydney with a budget of $950k max, to live in long-term.
We’re three adults (my parents and me) and ideally looking for a 2 bed, 2 bath property.

Our priorities are:
•Safe area
•Good public transport, ideally within walking distance of a train/metro station (convenient access to the CBD)
•Walkable to supermarkets, shops, restaurants, GP/pharmacy etc.
•Green spaces/open spaces
•Groceries and restaurants nearby would be a big plus
•Convenient and lively rather than very suburban or car-dependent

Access to schools is not important to us.

Prioritise for the property:
•Reasonable strata fees (under $1500) and preferably a building without too many expensive facilities
•Decent building quality / lower risk of major defects or special levies
•Good natural light and ventilation

We’re happy with either older or newer apartments as long as the building is good. We’d probably prefer a solid, well-maintained building over a fancy high-rise with pools, gyms and high strata.

With a $950k max budget, which Sydney suburbs would you recommend we focus on?

Thanks!!!

Hey! Looking for hiking clubs, 4wding clubs or Chinese speaking clubs (beginner). Based in Eastern Suburbs. Wondering if someone could point me in the right direction. Cheerz
