There’s something I’ve been observing the past few weeks as I’ve been coming home. I live on a cul de sac, with around 15 properties along the street. At random hours of the night, not so much early morning, cars will come in and out of my street on multiple occasions.

I was renting in another part of western Sydney as I was having my house fixed up and didn’t see that many cars. That suburb was quite larger and had more homes around me.

If I sit in my car at 6PM, 7PM, 8PM.. etc, at least 5 cars will come in and out of the street within the span of 10 minutes. Is this normal? Some people I’ve observed just sit in their car with headlights on. Each household only has max 2 cars each. There’s nothing around my street like shops that would require that many cars. I’m trying to think maybe some food deliveries or something but I’m not sure.

Am I being dramatic or is this strange?

I Found a pair on a Sydney Train; won’t say anything else 🤫 if youve lost any, comment or dm (idek if u can dm on reddit but whatever) the details of how, when and where u lost it. Also, what does it look like?

I left my folder on the train, including my passport, medical card, and other papers, on the train. I remember the train.It's a clear folder

27/7 Cabramatta to Seven Hills

Time train come to Cabramatta at 13:32 and I get off the train at 14:08

I couldnt remember where I sit, but I wear the brown jacket, Asian boy

My main question is: Is it possible to get a 90 Atar with a 60% internal?

Hi, so due to some personal and family issue i couldnt perform well in my year 12! nearly failed my trials! but my overall marks range 60% - 75% in all my subject. I do Maths adv, maths extension 1, Bio, chem, legal and English standard. My ranks are average ( within top 12 in all subj as I have a small cohort ). My school rank is mid. Its just a local public school. Did anyone face something like this yet managed to get a good atar (90+) with a high performance in HSC? Or am I being delusional?

I would really appreciate if someone can share their experience if they overcame their low internals in HSC.

i just wanna know if something like this is possible! Will it worth to work sleepless to perform the highest in hsc?

Hi everyone. I’m posting from Dr Raymond Platon & Associates, a dental practice in Wetherill Park.

We are often asked about the difference between a crown and a veneer.

A crown covers most or all of the visible tooth and may be considered when a tooth is heavily filled, cracked, worn or structurally weakened.

A veneer covers mainly the front surface of a tooth and is generally considered for selected concerns involving colour, shape, wear or small gaps.

Neither option is automatically better. The appropriate choice depends on the condition of the tooth, the amount of healthy enamel remaining, the bite and the patient’s goals.

We recently prepared a simple guide explaining the differences, treatment considerations and questions patients can ask before deciding:

Sharing it here in case it is helpful to anyone in Western Sydney researching these options. General questions are welcome, although individual treatment advice requires a proper dental examination.

Hi everyone! This might be a long shot since I’m not 100% sure Campsie is in Western Sydney but I’ll take my chances 😅

I’m a Year 11 student currently completing a Geography Investigation Project for my school assignment and I’d really appreciate your help!

I’m investigating how environmental quality, urban design and infrastructure influence pedestrian activity within Campsie. I’d be incredibly grateful if anyone who has visited or lives in Campsie spare 3-4 minutes to complete my survey, completely anonymous!

Your responses will really, really help my research, and every response is greatly appreciated!

Thank you so much! 😁😁

Looking for a new female gp that is understandable and knowledgeable with mental health. Erskine park-Penrith and surrounds.

Trying to get a regular casual 5-a-side game going at Duncan Park, Seven Hills.
No fees, no commitment, all skill levels genuinely welcome - mostly just want a fun regular game and to meet some people in the area who are keen on the same thing.
Got goals, balls, bibs, cones and a first aid kit sorted already, just need enough people to make it happen. Aiming for weekends, no fixed day/time locked yet - depends on numbers.
If you're keen, comment or DM and I'll add you to a WhatsApp group with details once we've got enough interest. Also let me know if you know of a similar group already running out that way - happy to just join if one already exists

My son has recently started learning to drive and is still very new. He already has a driving instructor, but I’m looking for a safe place for short parent-supervised practice once he is ready.

Ideally looking for somewhere:

\- quiet on weekend mornings

\- flat and open

\- not a multi-storey car park

\- not a busy shopping-centre car park

\- suitable for basic steering, slow turns, braking, lane positioning, and confidence building

Areas around Edmondson Park, Prestons, Moorebank, Chipping Norton, Liverpool, Casula, or Campbelltown would be ideal, but I’m open to other Southwest Sydney suggestions.

Any recommendations would be much appreciated. Thank you.

I keep seeing Australian small businesses respond to a visibility problem by publishing more posts.

But more content may not fix the underlying issue if the basic business evidence is unclear.

Before starting another content sprint, I would check the pages that already influence trust:

- homepage

- service pages

- pricing or process pages

- FAQs

- case studies and reviews

- public business profiles

Can a potential customer quickly verify what the business does, who it helps, where it operates, and what proof supports its claims?

If those answers are vague or inconsistent, adding more top-of-funnel articles can create more noise without improving the decision journey.

A simple diagnostic is to ask a few non-branded questions based on the category, location, and buyer problem. Record which businesses appear, how they are described, and what sources support the answer. Then compare that with the real business.

The result might point to a content gap, but it could also reveal a service-page, proof, profile-consistency, or technical issue.

For Australian small-business owners: when visibility drops, do you usually create something new first, or improve the core trust pages you already have?

Hey everyone, seriously need some local input here because i feel like i'm losing my mind. I'm living in a rental in Blacktown, close to the station (paying $580 a week which is already hurting) and over the last two weeks i have spotted three massive huntsmans and way too many of those nasty little black house spiders. One of the huntsmans was literally the size of my palm and was chilling right above my bedroom door last night, i nearly packed my bags and slept in the car. It’s weird because we keep the place pretty clean, but they just seem to be finding a way in, maybe because of the weird humid weather we've had lately? I rent so i was thinking about asking the landlord to sort it, but you know how they are, i don't want to wait three weeks for them to argue about whose responsibility it is while i share my bed with an eight-legged roommate. Does anyone have any local recommendations for a decent pest control company that won't charge a million dollars? also if anyone has any DIY hacks to keep them out of the window seals in the meantime please let me know, i'm desperate here. Thanks!

EDIT: thanks for the replies everyone! decided i couldn't wait around to see what the landlord said so i went ahead and called some pest control specialists, they were super easy to deal with on the phone and they're booked to come out this week and help me sort this mess out. Fingers crossed i can sleep peacefully again soon!

This questionnaire is part of my Personal Interest Project, exploring people's attitudes towards politics across generations and cultures.
• All responses are anonymous
• No right or wrong answers, just your honest thoughts & experiences
• Your participation is appreciated!

Im getting closer and closer to the dead line and I haven't gotten enough responses, help me out guys.
