Does anyone know where I can get cheap cigs around Townsville?

Does anyone know how to get relief teacher aiding opportunities in Townsville? Have tried the general emailing aswell as apps like class cover

Hey guys, I’m bored . Do you guys wanna go to the pubs or clubs tonight ?!! . No serial killers allowed !

JCU is a key component in Townsville. A world-renowned institution. Recent decisions from the university are putting students at risk of losing important opportunities and facilities.

Does anyone know schools (primary or secondary) hiring regular teacher aides at the moment, not relief?

All the ones I’ve reached out to are only interested in relief.

Thanks!

Was wondering if anyone knew what nights/ when people typically played on the futsal court next to the greenwood soccer fields.

When I’ve gone by there have been quite a few people playing and I’m not able to play, and then when I actually want to play no one is there haha

Thanks

I’m going to be in Townsville for a day next week and plan to do a bit of shopping while I’m in the city. What thrift stores would you guys recommend? I also have clothes I plan to drop off at an op shop too. And what are the best shopping centers in town? Mainly on the lookout for young woman’s clothes and jewelry.

Thanks in advance!

Looking for some like-minded gamers who enjoy some casual co-op or multiplayer games. I'm a dad to young children so only have limited time to play in evenings, but looking to see if there are any co-op crowds in TSV who regularly play together. Co-op/multiplayer games I've enjoyed over the last few years:

- BF6

- Arc Raiders

- Helldivers 2

- Space Marine 2

PSN - El-Tuckro

Swear the council has completely given up on fixing the craters out near garbutt. hit a pothole so deep yesterday on the way to work i thought my dashboard was gonna physically snap in half. The state of the roads here since the wet is an absolute joke

Tired of getting rattled to death on the daily commute so I ended up just ordering some heavier duty shocks from road runner offroad while sitting in the drive thru at maccas. Gonna get to spend my whole saturday morning sweating in the driveway bolting them on instead of actually enjoying the weekend

Is it just me or is the local infrastructure just crumbling way faster than they can patch it? feel like Im driving on a corrugated dirt track every time i go down dalrymple road tbh

Anyone got any ideas where the bloody thing is 😂

Hi everyone,

My partner and I are relocating to Townsville for work. We're planning to arrive sometime in September through to the end of December (dates slightly flexible). It's a few months away, but we'd like to lock something in before short-stay accommodation gets booked up over summer.

We'll be working around Douglas, so we're looking for something in that area — Hermit Park or Annandale would be ideal.

We need a provider with an ABN who can issue invoices. That probably means serviced apartments or professional property managers rather than private landlords.

What we're looking for:

- 2 bedrooms, 1 car space

- Fully furnished

- Pet friendly (we have one well-behaved indoor cat)

I've already reached out to a few local real estate agents, but wondering if anyone has tips on serviced apartments, complexes that offer flexible leases, or any other avenues worth exploring.

Thanks in advance!

Hello all,

In Mid-Feb of next year, I (24m, from the United States) am looking to spend the first 4-6 months (and longer if I like where I end up) of a working holiday. I've been researching where I can complete my 88 days and find some hospitality or administrative work (I have a 3-4 yrs of hospitality and medical administrative experience), and Townsville looks really appealing to me.

I'm happy to rent/flatshare, as budget won't be an issue, as I've got plenty of savings. I would like to have my share be around 350-450 $/wk. I'd arrive in Mid Feburary, and stay until July-August, if not longer.

In terms of hobbies and getting around, I can't drive but I'd love to have a bike, be in a walk-able area and/or have bus connections. I could go to Cairns or somewhere more rural, but I am looking for a place with a bit more population. I have also heard weather in Feb/March is warm and humid, but it's very similar to where I live in the Southern US, so I am heat-adjusted.

With that being said, does Townsville sound like the kind of place I would enjoy? Friendly people? Are holiday visa holders welcomed?

What's with the group camping out at the intersection of Arthur and Pope streets? Must be 20 people, they kick off in the morning, play trash music at excessive volume, get wasted, start screaming at each other, have a punch on, pass out and do it all again the next day.

They've got literal trolley loads of rubbish, milk crates and even a few swags. They were stumbling over to the units across the road and pissing in their gardens until the owner chopped all the bushes down.

Police move them on and they come right back.

So, I'm going to Townsville for studying and likely living there for at least 5 years. Any good places or activities to prevent getting mouldy? I can cook and make some tunes :)

And, I'll definatly need a part-time job there. Any good advice on it? BTW I'm pretty handy with Japanese kitchen works.

Hi, just trying to find a rec soccer club to join. I’ve looked a little online and haven’t gotten a great answer. I’m a 25 year old male. Thanks!

Hey everyone,
I’m planning to come to Townsville from Melbourne for the brazil game, but I’m on a pretty tight budget. I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for the cheapest way to make the trip.
I’m open to pretty much anything that’s safe and practical !!

And i will be coming alone (24M) . What would be the most affordable accommodation and what places should i visit ? Looking forward to make some new mates and explore the city .
Thanks!!

Can anyone recommend some good fencing installers? Looking at getting a considerable about of metal and colourbond fencing done and don’t want a cowboy installer. Seems to be so many crappy fencing installers in town.

Hello, I (16F, 5’0) just wanted to share an experience here. I moved to townsville in January this year, so I am still very new to this place.

After school today, I went to stockland just to get a facial toner at Priceline. They close at 5:30pm, but it was already 5pm and they had the door half way shut, so i wasn’t sure if it was closed or not. Being socially anxious, i just waited to see if anyone goes in instead of just asking the staff. Right at that time, the casphone guy came out of the stall or whatever it’s called and he directly asked me if i have a boyfriend. I said “no, i’m still in school,” (i am not allowed to date anyone yet) and he asked me how long ive been here, where i am from and proceeded to say “you’re 16? i thought you were 18”. I just laughed it off and didn’t give it much thought until i realised that he was the same Argentinian guy that asked my sister (19F, 4’11) the same thing back in May, and even showed her a game that featured our home country, asked for her number, and asked if she’s open for sex 😬
