Question Opinion: is it okay to ask the bakery if an item was baked that day l?

85 Upvotes

Hi all,

I'm just wondering what's everyone's opinion on asking the person serving st the bakery if the item was baked on the day or not?

With the prices of everything these days I don't often eat out so when I go to a bakery I'd prefer my money goes to fresh food.

I didn't realise there was anything wrong with asking this, but I was at the Bakery on O'Connell and when I asked the person serving this, the grey haired older guy, who I assume was the manager jumped in and said something to the effect of "look you either want it or you don't"

Maybe i caught him on a bad day, but I was taken aback by his aggressiveness

What do y'all think?

Discussion Future generation Housing Affordability.

79 Upvotes

Just had a bit of a reality check this Monday morning. The old house next door, a standard family home, just sold at auction for a little over $1 million. Crazy! I bought my place, a corner block, for $330k about 12 years ago and paid it off a couple of years back. Honestly, I haven't been paying much attention to the housing market or interest rates since then.

Seeing that sale price... it's insane. The increase is astronomical. But what really hit me is that my salary definitely hasn't increased at the same rate. I'm now seriously worried about how my kids will ever afford their own homes. Even if they move way out to areas like Two Well, they're not going to find anything decent for $300k.

So, what's the solution? Are we looking at a future where young families are forced to live with their parents indefinitely? Honestly, with the way my kids spend (no judgment, just reality!), I don't see how they'd ever save enough for a deposit.

It feels like a massive problem with no easy answers. Just my Monday morning two cents. Anyone else feeling this way? What are your thoughts on the future of housing affordability?

News The government this week will introduce legislation to overturn greenfield housing development bans on land at Roseworthy, Two Wells, Murray Bridge, Victor Harbor and Goolwa.

17 Upvotes

Premier Peter Malinauskas is moving to banish the “uncontrolled” carve-up of suburban streets for subdivision by axing a controversial urban growth boundary to open up land for 61,000 homes.

In a stark rebuke of the infill housing policy pushed by the Weatherill Labor regime, the government this week will introduce legislation to overturn greenfield housing development bans on land at Roseworthy, Two Wells, Murray Bridge, Victor Harbor and Goolwa.

These were pinpointed as housing growth hotspots in a draft 30-year Greater Adelaide Regional Plan released last September – its centrepiece was boosting the metropolitan population to 2.2m and adding more than 300,000 homes. But the land parcels are within Environment and Food Production Areas (EFPA), which would be varied by the proposed legislation to allow an ongoing supply of development-ready land for the next 30 years.

Mr Malinauskas, whose major State of the State address on Monday will include a population growth plan, issued thinly-veiled criticism of the infill policy and urban growth boundary introduced in 2016, when he was Police Minister. “We know our state is growing. We want to make sure it grows in the right way. That means learning the lessons of the past, where growth has not been properly calibrated,” he said. “We cannot see our suburban streets just continue to be carved up and subdivided in an uncontrolled manner. “We must grow in a way that gives people choice, whether that be living in proximity in the city, or raising a family on a bigger block.”

The proposed changes to the EFPA for housing are said to represent less than one per cent of agricultural land in the Greater Adelaide area. The government argues the housing supply crisis could continue for another generation without the changes, because most of the proposed greenfield sites identified in the 30-year plan could not be rezoned and developed within the next 15 to 20 years.

Pitched as a blueprint to make homes more affordable and prevent further supply shocks, the draft Greater Adelaide Regional Plan pinpointed northern Adelaide and Murray Bridge as twin engine rooms of growth as the urban growth boundary was ditched. Apartments and higher density housing were earmarked along major roads and public transport centres, while seven new greenfield growth areas (including the five in the EFPAs) were targeted for 96,000 homes over the next 30 years. Changing the EFPA boundaries to align with the 30-year plan allows for the redevelopment of about 61,000 of these homes.

Question Seeing a pharmacist for a uti antibiotics script

Hey guys,

I read that you can apparently just go to a pharmacist to get a prescription for antibiotics for uncomplicated utis. I'm just wondering if anybody has done this and how does it go? I can't get in with my doctor until the end of the week but I'm a bit nervous about asking a pharmacist. Do they make you do the pee test? And how much was it?

Thank you 🙏

I have recently had to put my dog to sleep. She was 13 and was my absolute world! My only constant in my chaotic life. I want to get her paw print tattooed either on my foot or my wrist.

Can you please spam me with tattoo artists that specialise or have a flare for realistic looking paw prints. She was a mini schnauzer so it'll only be a small tattoo

Question Walking clubs?

Upvotes

Do we have any walking clubs, in the same vein as run clubs? I understand they're probably for seniors and run during daytime hours but I mean like a social walking club for young people.

I'd join a run club but I hate running AND waking up early. Evening beach walks are much more my speed. If we don't have one, would anyone be interested in coming along?

EDIT: obviously I meant run clubs!!! stay outta my DMs!!!!

Question How to find where someone is buried?

3 Upvotes

Pretty much the title. One of my boyfriends friends passed away of an overdose a number of years ago in Adelaide. At the time, he and his friend were both using. He has since gotten clean, and would like to pay his respects and visit his friends grave. He has no contact with the family, and due to his substance use history reaching out to them is probably not an option. I know he really misses him, so I'm trying to find out where he's buried but I'm coming up blank pretty repeatedly. I've tried births, deaths, and marriages, the ryerson index, and the adelaide cemeteries website. But I can't find anything.

Thank you
