@Gorgritch_umie_killa GNOMESVILLE

Although not sure on current status following recent flood.

Middleton Beach in Albany. And The Gap obvs.

Pemberton there's a cafe on the main street with an old loco out the front. Do that.

Beedelup Falls is a nice stroll. Worth looking into annual parks membership and if you think it'll offset parking charges if you visit lots of places.

Big Brook Dam, but might not be swimming weather. On the road down there is a restaurant atop a hill that used to have an old tram car as a dining area. They may have shut that now but the main dining area is nice.

Tall Timbers cafe in Manjimup. And the playground at the timber museum in town there is awesome if that's your thing.

Nearby is Donnelly River which is an village of a couple of dozen old saw mill workers' cottages. Has roos and emus walking around and you can feed them. Not much else though. No dogs allowed.

The ANZAC stuff at Albany is worth a visit. And of course Dog Rock.

There's a treetop walk down there somewhere that is popular. Not for me though. Not getting me that high.

Elephant Rocks and Madfish Bay (has a waterfall on it)

@Lodespawn @EvilBit that sounds like a shortcut to a bad time

@Aussieiuszko My son's school tops are white. White. Who thought white was a good idea for Year 7 boys? Has to go in a bucket of whatever that pink bottle is at end of each day.
And whilst high quality, they are only available from one supplier at stupid prices.
Thankfully they're just starting a 3 year swap over to dark blue.

@BeardedGingerWonder @BOFH666 always worth googling around for the Service Manual rather than User Manual for those things. And YouTube. Probably find the correct order in which to take it apart without too many curses.

@4am @BOFH666 would it know if you filled the rinse aid reservoir with water?

@p03locke @shalafi i have a primary email that uses a TLD released in 2014. I use it for any mails that aren't e.g. government or financial. The number of systems/servers/transports that haven't been updated to accept it is quite an annoyance.
I avoid email anyway.

@quoll reminds me I've got an eye test soon. Pretty sure I'm more blind than last year. So that's another $500-odd I'll have to find

@SLVRDRGN @TokenEffort I feel the same when handed an iThing these days. I don't think it helps that the ones I'm handed have had everything on them moved around and whatnot by children.
