        Nein! It is however a 2-day-per-week call centre job. The 2 working days offsets the call centre aspect haha

          Hrrmm. Keep applying for animile jobs. Then you can tell call centre to FO with zero guilt.

            The plan is to us the pay from this job to pay for intensive driving lessons to fast track getting my Ps; almost all animal attendant roles require a driver’s licence, so once I get that I can start really throwing myself at those jobs. And it will be easy to attend any interviews if I only work two days a week.

            I’m still applying for the animal roles anyway, because you never know lol

    a few hours work in the yard, garden table wire brushed then derust applied. Cleaned and two coats of paint. Looks ok.

    Spent one hour doing nothing but raking and sweeping in the front and filled a bin.

    will do more tomorrow. :)

    Where do you buy thick bacon?

    A cafe at my uni sells muffins with a centimetre thick slice of bacon in.

    I was curious if it’s possible to buy bacon that thick as a consumer, and where. The local butchers either don’t have any, or just have the same thing slices Coles and Woolworths have.

      Even a good deli or butcher will have bacon that’s sliced to order so you can get it as thick as you want. Nothing beats bacon sliced when you ask for it

      Sometimes fick bacon appears at Aldi on special. Colesworth also sometimes have ‘ham steaks’ which can be tweaked to function as bacon for muffin purposes. However YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED that the worst, the absolute WORST case of food poisoning I’ve ever had came from ham steaks that hadn’t been properly stored. I’m talking hospitalisation level of food poisoning. With a drip to counter dehydration. Do not recommend. So embarrassing.

      Good butcher should be able to carve off some thicker bacon off the pig if needed. As per CEO below. Or buy a chunk of kaiserfleisch from a deli and chop it into slices yourself. This costs more but is very good.

      EDIT: Psarakos supermarket in Thornbury (not the vegie section) will cut cured meats of amazing variety to your specifications. Price can be eyewatering, but worth it for exactly what you want.

    The sproots are on their way to friend’s kid now, as well as the pumpkins that were left. There were only 11 seedlings remaining though as I forgot to bring them in and the snails had a munch.

    Edit: Last photo of the pumpkins. The paper bag contained seeds which were also gifted. I forgot to take pics of sproots.

    spoiler

    Also ages ago I remember someone wanted whipped peanut butter? I saw Woolies is selling it again
