My trusty steed has a wiring issue which causes the high beam to randomly activate when using the indicators with the headlights on.
I really annoyed a lady this morning when following her when the high beam flicking on and off was enough for her to change lanes and be obviously annoyed at the flashing lights [...]
I’ve searched the ACT Government site and have had no luck in finding the regulations covering the waterproofing of shower areas in residences.
Can anyone tell me what the building regulations are and when they came into play re having a waterproof barrier behind the tiling of a shower area in Canberra residences?

Hi Rioters,
I know this could be another version of how long is a piece of string, but can anyone give me a ballpark estimate of how much it would cost for a professional painter to prepare and paint 2 double bedrooms including wardrobe doors and ceilings?
Surfaces are fair wear and tear damaged, so a bit of [...]

I’m wanting to sign up to do my grocery shopping online and have it delivered and wondering what happens about bags?
Do I have to pay the supermarket the 50c per plastic bag each time (or $1ea for the polypropylene non-disposable bags)?

My wife and I (no kids) are thinking about moving to Downer but have little knowledge of the inner north.
Just wondering if there are any streets to avoid or any general comments on what life’s like living in Downer.
Thanks in advance – and please go easy, it’s my first post

It’s my niece’s birthday on Monday and she wants to go to a tapas bar.

I have a called a couple of places who either don’t answer the phone or don’t do [...]

Hi everyone,
There hasn’t been much chat about leaky roofs on RA for about a year and I was wondering if anyone has had recent positive experience with a repairer. We have had a persistant leak now for about 20 years that only happens during heavy rain.
We’ve had a series of repairers look at it, replace [...]

i was musing, as you do, as i wandered across civic the other day and, for no reason in particular, thoughts turned to the varying quality of public amenities in civic and it occurred to me that different people must have their particular convenience of choice and i thought i’d ask, where do rioters spend [...]
Hello guys,
I love iced black coffee but I cannot seem to get one at regular coffee shops.
I know Starbucks has it but there is none in Canberra.

I am interested in people’s experiences.
Just wondering if anyone knows how long (usually) it takes before a speeding fine will arrive, if indeed you are to receive one?
Also, is there any leeway given with regard to the actual speed – ie, if you were going a couple of K’s over, would that still warrant a fine, or not?
I’m [...]
Hi everyone,
I recently tried out for the SES and got as far as the information session when I got an email telling me that my application to join was unsuccessful – before I even got the application forms.
I was wondering if there is a Rural Fire Service or any other organisations that need volunteers? [...]

Yes, go to an asian grocer, I get it…but every time a buy a seaweed that [...]
