MODERATORS
I have been approved for a home! I shall not after all be homeless.
It is in a new estate, so comes with the standard building noises during the day I have become used to, but should not have the regular demolition sounds. There is a dishwasher. There is heating. There is cooling. There is a walk in pantry and double glazing! Now I have to order a dog door insert for Mr Woof, organise the removalists, and figure out what goes where.
I guess this means I'm officially no longer a Melbournian, I am an official Ballaratian. Or is it a Ballaratbag?

Yay! You'll need that heating, Ballarat nights are nippy.
And I'm moving just in time for winter. Into the suburb of Winter Valley. โ๏ธ๐ง๐ฅถ
The garage connected to the house will also be very good for that, less ice scraping from the windshield.
Congrats!! Yay!! And definitely Ballaratbag (as a former Bendigonian)
OK, I'm late to this party, but I thought Ballaratbag only applied if you live in Wendouree. Or has that vibe expanded with new settlement/immigration. I last lived there in the late 70s, so my info could well be out of date.
Congrats!!!
I'd love to move out that way.
Hopefully I can get fully remote by the end of the year.
aim higher. Get a place in nambucca heads for like 600k and live like a freakin king!
Congrats! Sounds like it will be a comfortable place.
Hurrah! Enjoy the serenity of the Rat. I am well acquainted with some of the new developments around Delacombe. Quite affordable for the space and facilities as a rental. Will it be a long commute to all your usual things though?
16 minute commute to work, which is the main reason I leave home. Most everything else will be a similar distance or closer. I will be much closer to cows and forests.
Congrats! Thatโs great news! Thereโs good gallery action there if you like that stuff
That's awesome . ๐
And it's Ballaarcunian. ๐
Congrats ๐
Yay! That sounds perfect ๐ double glazing is a big win near Ballarat
