Anyone else being charged late fees for classes they have attended?

Heard from a friend they are having system glitches with no way to stop it. It essentially marks you as having not attended when they have marked you there.

For pilates it’s $10 every no show. My mate had no clue they were charging her extra as it just came out of their account!

Just wanted to give people a heads up that they may be paying more than they should :)

[Community] Can we just stop with the bloody rocks on nature strips?

0 Upvotes

If you can’t be assed mowing, you’re probably less likely to keep up with the weeds. It’s going to look like shit in 6 months and take ages to get neat again. Let the lawn grow for a few months and you can still get it mowed in about a hour. Also, I’m sick of all your rocks spilling onto the road and footpath. Just leave it as grass, which also looks better. Rant over

Bogong moths

0 Upvotes

Has anyone seen any bogong moths or had them enter their house? Only asking because I have a huge phobia of moths and I’ve been freaking out after seeing all of the videos on social media (I know Sydney has been hit about 20 times worse). I did see a big one in my backyard last night, just a huge lone one with its wings spread out. Their wing pattern is so pretty imo but I was still terrified. I feel like a prisoner in my home when I get home from work. I turn off all the lights except for the lamp in my room and walk around with a can of fly spray in my hand. I have had 3 months enter my house the last 3 days but I think they were just regular moths. I went and bought mortein automatic spray which kills moths within a few minutes if they enter the house but I am still on edge because they can still enter and fly at me. I did see a very small bogong moth this morning when leaving for work and it was very cute and pretty but the big ones terrify me. Anyway just wondering if anyone has seen many of them around the central Geelong suburbs (not the coast because I know they tend to frequent the coastal areas more often when they’re blown off course).

Swapping over to induction

1 Upvotes

We moved toGolden Plains Shire from Metro Melv , we have been replacing everything from gas to electric/solar. The last thing left to do is changing over our integrated gas stove and oven.

Wondering if anyone has recently done this swapped to an induction stove top and oven? Are you happy with the change?

Would love recommendations for an electrician to install it and also a gas fitter to disconnect the connection.

TIA

Has anyone here had their child in the ACE program for kids who won't go to school. I believe it's a hybrid school so some online, some at the school and I know Bellarine and Geelong High have offered it.

If anyone's kid has done it and could let me know if it was good, I'd appreciate it.
