$150 to tell me the dog most likely has hayfever! Regular human antihistamines are fine to take.....

Absolutely they are.

What does the dog have to take?

The bit you highlighted [emoji6]

I got to work this morning in 15 seconds.... just had to walk down the hallway.

Seriously though my new commute to the office from home, is around 15 minutes. Bliss by Melbourne standards. I am 7 minutes closer now I reckon.

For Mrs C, 6 less sets of lights too.

I think my commute is around 8 seconds. I do have to go into the office and that's an hour, so working from home is blissful!

Back on topic - I had to go to the airport to catch a 6am flight during the week. I got to the airport at 5.28 and had to jump the queue to make my 6am flight. The line up was maybe 500 or more people long. At 5.58 I went from about 75-100 deep to first in line and then only just made my flight.

Couple of hours before the first bounce, dont panic

Of course I'm panicking, it's all about alcohol consumption more than the game!
First mistake already made by going to the Colonist. Went to Finn McCools and much better.

Was that Tuesday morning? I also had a 6:10 flight, got there at 5:40 (had pre-checked in with Qantas) shat myself seeing the line going out the door. Went straight to the staff lane on the right side and walked straight through. Magic. Saw some pretty animated people. Shocking logistics at the airport, all flights going at the same time, rest of the day is quiet.

Had to get the lad to Glenelg Oval by 5:30pm yesterday, left work early to go collect him and then stopped home to get changed, I left Prospect at a tad before 4:30pm and got there a couple of minutes late, South Road is pure horse shit and will be for some time, yeah it's great having 19 lanes from Regency Road to past Grange Road but they all meet up and traffic doesn't move for God knows how long.

I was fortunate enough for someone to let me across so I could cut down Deacon Avenue to work my way to Marion Road then boom, another wall. Managed to get across to cut through Mooringie to get to Morphett which was bedlam trying to turn right again, the final kick in the nuts was eventually turning on to Brighton Road and seeing what was ahead.

Under normal circumstances I would've worked my way to Tapleys Hill Road, hindsight is wonderful.

I don't think I'll ever get to see the full advantage of the South Road upgrade.

This makes me appreciate my 25 min, 3 roads, 100km an hour for 90% of the way trip to work each day.

Length of time is perfect, allows me to get through 5-7 songs, enough to clear the head before seeing the fam. Can almost do the trip in auto pilot and plenty of easy/safe overtaking spots if I get caught behind some tourists. Wildlife can be a bit of a nightmare but touchwood haven't hit anything yet.....fingers crossed.

Don't reckon I could ever do a city commute to work ever again. Work is enough of a life struggle nevermind getting there and back being stressful. Sport is just as easy to travel to except some of the travel is an hour long.

This
Ive never lived in the city, this would be one of the main reasons not to. I drive from Angaston to Nuri for work, all of about 10 minutes and 7 or 8kms. However, the chance of a 5 second stop at the two lights is annoying. Generally i fuel up every 4 weeks, unless sport takes me to the shit hole of Gawler.

Same here.
Bad enough driving 5 minutes with a few intersections and a roundabout.

So we have never owned a dog, my BIL and his family are off to Sydney for a week so they drop off their 6 month old cavoodle (?) to us last night to look after. My son who has pleaded for a dog all his life is in heaven and has promised to look after it. Anyway last night the dog jumped off my son's bed and now it isn't putting any pressure on is back right leg when walking. He doesn't seem in any distress and doesn't flinch when we put pressure on the leg, anyone had something similar?

Update, took him to Vet on Friday, surgery on Saturday -$2,300 so far.....

What the hell was wrong with it? Did it dislocate it's hip or something?

I'm going ACL.

Knee Patella was displaced, needed to be screwed back in, complicated by the dog still growing. We are now nursing the dog with a cone of shame until Thursday, friggin nightmare!

So you're not getting your own dog then, you seem to break them within minutes of getting them

(Poor Pupper, hope he'll be ok)

[Dutchy]

Thats exactly what happened, unbelievable, and no we wont be getting a dog.

However I do now understand how people get so attached to their pups.

It was indeed. I am now mocked at work for being the most 'latest' person to make the 6am! I think I boarded at 6.08 to the chagrin of the cabin staff and passengers.

[mighty_tiger_79]

the airport does open earlier to check in....

but people do hate it when they see people using the staff lane for screening

[The Dark Knight]

Sporting Pulse crashing again!
Looks like there are various Adelaide Footy League results not entered again and quite a few games are still 'live'.
Any Country leagues having the same issue?
