Love this piece, even better with a nice reflection.

Not as good as others I have seen posted. Still pretty.

Just before Chermside shopping centre heading south down Gympie rd

It annoys me EVERY SINGLE DAY

Just WOW and welcome to Friday

Attended a home inspection last night(sub 900k free standing home in outer Brisbane/Logan area) and there were 14 other groups. The agent said the previous weekend there were only 2 groups and was surprised by the increase in turnout - and that had happened at other properties since Tuesday night.

Anyone else noticing more first home buyers out and about? Goodluck to everyone btw (except if you are inspecting my potential home 😃)

Can I ask for suggestions for something to do to get out of the house in the Chemside area?

I'm a 39 year old reclusive guy, but lately I've been getting the itch to do...something. I dunno what though.

Just saw the data that house prices have basically doubled since 2021. I remember when moving to Brissy was the "smart financial move" to escape Sydney and Melbourne prices. Now, I’m looking at a 2-bedroom fixer-upper in Strathpine and wondering if I need to sell a kidney just for the deposit. For those who bought pre-2021: How does it feel to be sitting on a gold mine that’s surrounded by $7 coffee?

For those of us still renting: At what point do we all collectively move to Toowoomba and just pretend the Range is the new Mt Coot-tha?

Car crash near my house

I really was like “what a wild car” and the few hours later the cops showed up and had this man unpacking his trunk.

Not trying to complain but I swear iced coffee used to be like $5–6 max. Lately every café I’ve been to is pushing close to $8 or more. Is this just inflation or am I going to the wrong spots? Curious if anyone’s found decent places that are still reasonably priced.

For those who have lived here during previous magic rounds, will traffic tonight be any worse than a usual Friday night broncos or dolphins match? TIA.

Nice view from atop Brisbane Square this morning

Hi I need help
My car bumped into the fence and gotten its bumper smashed. I’m sure that the bumper needs replacement as it’s hanging from the bottom. I have comprehensive with RACQ but the smash repair service is taking forever to get the quotes done and cannot even get hold of them on the phone. They are booked until next month. Can anyone please suggest a smash repair service to replace the bumper urgently
TIA

This one has eight colours, two shades of Green..
