I just finished watching Last Stop Larrimah. If ever there was a bunch of ragtag misfits, it would be the residents of Larrimah. Jfc.
They all hate each other, but no-ones seems want to to leave
Oh my deary me, what a whirlwind start to the day.
It was freezing outside and since I've come it it's been non stop mayhem but now I can finally pace myself and slow but steadily do my work for the rest of the day.
Also I can't stop thinking about food and what to make.
How do you reduce the vibration intensity on an iPhone? I feel the vibration is too strong and anxiety inducing...

Thanks mate. I tried setting it to 0 to compare but it doesn't seem to be working 😢
I promised my daughter I'd help her with with her art project which is lino cutting and printing. I have a piece of lino 2" by 3 1/2" (double sided) that I need to engrave and I have one shot at it. I do not have the tools for this. I need a huge coffee. I have a headache already. Any tips would be welcome.
Bunnings sells lino which might be good for practice runs. Also having a look at their hobby/craft knives and engraving tools might help.
I haven't done lino but did work experience in a jewellers shop and while mine was on metal (silver) engraving can be fiddly. Having different shapes and sharpnesses can help.
Don't be afraid to use curved rulers, compasses or protractors if you don't trust your freehand on curves.
I also know secondhand from etching that masking tape may be a great help in blocking off the areas which you do and don't want to be cutting into.
Good luck, and for goodness’ sake be careful using any Stanley knife on it.
Thanks. I'm pretty good with a Stanley knife.
This probably also goes without saying but I remember from my old art class you also use a greylead pencil and to make an outline or lines of what you're going to cut out of the lino with whatever tool you're going to use.
Cake is in oven. Estimated cooking finish time 1620hrs. The oven won't let me put in a time longer than 2 hours. Even technology has a short attention span these days.
Edit: Cake is now out of the oven, has been brushed with brandy and is cooling down under a foil cover. Next step involves more brandy and a thorough wrapping before putting it away to mature. A good rich fruit cake is a preserve, not a dessert. I will probably start eating this one in the latter half of next year.
Did you know for a mere $750 you can advertise for Red Rooster on some basic-ass Nike shoes as worn by "celebs" and friends of Red Rooster such as Kyle Sandilands? Someone needs to pinch me so I know I'm not dreaming of this incredible bargain!
I did not know this. But I'm not fashion expert.
Well I've finished. It's not good but at least it looks like she's done it. Now she can concentrate on her maths test for tomorrow.
bloody hell filament sellers are taking the piss. Here's hoping the ebay mob I found just around the corner have decent stuff.
