Awesome! I have heard about this but wasn't sure - thanks so much for the resource :)

Thank you so much!

Thank you!

Thanks so much, that is really helpful :)

>is it really a good idea to have a dog in an apartment?

If your dog is the right temperament :) Dr Melissa Starling (Veterinarian) and Michael Beatty (RSPCA, Qld) recommend [greyhounds make excellent apartment dogs](https://www.abc.net.au/everyday/can-you-have-a-dog-when-living-in-apartment/10682698)

RSPCA has also provided a list of recommended dog breeds for apartment living: [https://www.rspcansw.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/rspca-act-dogs-in-apartments.pdf](https://www.rspcansw.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/rspca-act-dogs-in-apartments.pdf)

Yeah big *if* there. That was my point.

People like the idea of an animal but don't realise the requirements to actually have one

Signed! I didn't even know cambeltown had a population of koalas.

Hello r/NSW!

I live in Geelong but we just holidayed in Byron Bay and I fell in love with the warm water. I arrived home yesterday and immediately thought about moving towards the central coast and came across the Kings Forest estate [http://www.kingsforestliving.com.au/](http://www.kingsforestliving.com.au/). I came across this estate so I thought I'd ask you. My wife's family are here so they'd need some convincing.

\-What is the beach like?

\-Do you think it will have a nice lifestyle? (subjective, I know)

\-Is the area prone to floods or anything else?

\-What are your eperiences building /with builders?

\-Any advice for talking my in laws into coming up with us?

Cheers!

Kings Forest will be a new estate near Kingscliff in Nth NSW. It’s been proposed for years and I’m not really sure where it’s at in terms of development. It’s pretty contentious among locals. If you are considering moving up here please be aware that the whole area is swamped with people since covid really, so make sure you already have work etc. There’s also a severe shortage on rentals if you would need to rent first and prices have gotten crazy.

Sorry for the confusion. I thought the central coast was between Sydney and Brisbane.

I also thought this estate was in NSW.

Again, my apologies

Hey guys,

My parents recently bought a tesla model 3 long range for their business. I am technically employed by them. I am on my NSW P2 license (Green P's), and I am aware that this is a prohibited vehicle. Despite this being a business car, it will remain at our residence, and I am just wondering if an exemption would be granted to allow me to drive this vehicle, or if exemptions will only be granted if there is a need to use the vehicle for work related purposes.

Please let me know your experience with this.

Best to check with Service NSW, but I think these days prohibited means prohibited.

You’d apply for an exemption, but that would only apply when youre working. Not driving to and from work, or doing anything else.

WA is doing this AI camera baiting thing for wild cats. Hopefully the tech will improve for things like this.

(It shoots a shot of 1080(?) from an automated machine, they lick it off and die)

Yes. I have a friend who hunts deer and eats it.

Personally I think its not worth the risk, but its up to you.

To anyone that has been done by a mobile speed camera. How long did it take for the fine to get to you?

I was so sure I got done during a double demerit weekend, but I haven’t received anything as of yet.

Did you end up getting a ticket?

Nope haha. What a time to be alive

Allegedly?

So if someone tells you they've called the poice on you, is it possible to verify that or do you just have to wait and see if they turn up, or leave?

You are fine. The person probably has mental health issues and is well known to the police in the unlikely event they called.

Even if police come (probably several hours later), they won't tazer you unless you are in a walking frame and have a blunt butter knife.

Are we talking traffic accident or mass murder

Why did someone feel the need to even say that to you? Are you at their house/business? Context is definitely needed.

whenever anybody says that, it's bullshit. just saunter off at your leisure.

If you're not doing anything wrong, who cares. Just do whatever you want. You're not under some citizens arrest.

We once called the police because of an incident at work, and when they left an hour later the cops still hadn't shown up.

essentially it was in a park, and the person was ranting about how I'd done something wrong and they had called the police. I was walking through so I didn't know what the hell they were talking about, but I also didn't want to walk off if the police had been called and maybe make myself look dodgy.

It just got me thinking was there a way to check if the police were coming or the Male Karen was just being an asshole.

I have no idea. Maybe someone did something and I was just next on the spot?

It was a park with houses backing on to it, some of them have their yards open like the park is part of their view. I wasn't the only one walking there, I am really just guessing why they chose to single out me.

If you don’t know then what on earth would they say to the cops? Sounds like a random thing someone just says

'Male Karen'. That would be a Terry, learn it.

Weird, i wouldn't worry about it. If a photo of you appears on the news then id probably suggest heading to your nearest cop shop and sorting it out but aside from that you might just be dealing with the usual Karens who threaten to call the police for walking in their view

yeah I knew I'd done nothing wrong, I was just doing the old 'overthinking in my own head' when I kept walking. What if the police did turn up? Would they start looking for me? Would I be wasting my time hanging around? Do I call them myself?

If you really are worried you could contact the police stn for that area and give them a brief account and your contact details. I’m not sure I would in that situation unless I knew for sure the police had been contacted and they would know where I lived.

It would have to be a pretty urgent situation to get lights and sirens headed your way.

Honestly, police response times for non emergencies are so slow, that if they even rock up at all, you’ll be long gone.

I found a dead body out the back of my work - local police response time: 2 hours

A crazy lady was throwing bricks at the back of my work building & breaking glass - local police response time: 4 hours

Pretty disappointing considering that we've already spent billions on this project.

Now they don't want to give a shit about people's lives?

Wtf.

i dunno, without seeing a mockup then it's difficult to comment.

I''ll bet they are not suitable for wheelchairs and probably not for frame walkers either

you think a raised platform is any better for wheelchairs?

I'd argue that with a squeezeway, you can now have people walk on both sides of the track, and the raised middle section. Therefore increasing output by 3.

The main challenge is people stepping down onto the lower track.

That would depend on the actual construction. I believe the lower squeeze way is only one path of smaller width than the raised track.

Why is it marked as nsfw?

The trees are naked.

It's about New South Fuckin Wales of course.

not sure if this is the right place to ask this but i thought i’d lost my License over the weekend so I ordered a new one online. I then found my old one so I wanted to know if I can still use my old one or do I have to wait and use my new one?? TIA!!

[deleted]

Just use the one on your phone?

what licence? driver's licence? firearms licence? motorboat licence?

write to whatever the governing body of your licence is and ask for a new one. if it's the driver's licence, i don't think you can use the old one once the new one has been issued.

ok perfect thanks!!

"popo"??

i’m living in VIC atm and some places don’t accept the phone IDs

Mate. If someone says license without additional context, they almost always mean driver's license. And OP literally says right there that they've already ordered a new one.

FYI they usually only check your license number not the card number. You will be 100% fine.

Police. Cops. Popo

[deleted]

Ah, probably worth mentioning that.

righty o

sorry i haven't had my coffee yet. i should stop internetting until then

Obviously, I was too subtle. Do people in Australia use the word "popo" with a straight face?

I might be just clarifying that you aren't referring to you father's Chinese mother ([https://www.quora.com/What-does-Po-Po-mean-in-Chinese](https://www.quora.com/What-does-Po-Po-mean-in-Chinese) ) or to the Spanish slang for poop.

Or are you a black American youth?

Yes, frequently.

If you can't do it without chortling, you have to report to the nearest cop shop and hand in your Aussie card.

Can’t find this in an FAQ with the DCJ at all. How long does it take for the DCJ’s Rentstart Bond application to either be approved or declined, generally speaking?

Doesn’t say it anywhere online and DCJ are hard to get through to.

Thanks!

I remember when I was a struggling university student and never had success with a landlord accepting a rent start bond. They see the tenant as a risk. Not trying to be negative, just realistic.

Who knows? I applied to be put on the waiting list for housing 9 weeks ago. The online form FAQ said Housing NSW would contact an applicant within 2 business days. I’m still waiting. If you ring they‘ll cuntishly and contradictly state they can’t give timeframes and no they’re not familiar with the FAQs.
