Second batch of crumpets have been made . I think the recipe needs adjusting. Edible, even delicious but a bit heavy.

I've never made crumpets before but I've had atayef pancakes (middle eastern pancakes) lots of times and they always remind me of a lighter crumpet so maybe have a look at those recipes to get some ideas on how to adjust yours.
I need to add more milk and maybe a little baking powder. The batter needs to be a bit thinner.
Donโt suppose youโd indulge us with a photo of said crumpets?

Ventured out to Footscray for some vape supplies. It's so nice here.
Can't wait to move once I have a new contract. Makes where I live seem like the middle of fucking nowhere.
Out west? Miss Seagoon spent about 4 months there, she couldn't wait to get back to Carlton.
I don't blame her. It's fucking dead out here. Peaceful, nice to have a music studio in my house. But it's no longer worth it. I need to be around people.
We talked a lot about it. The young Seagoons loved all the birds, the trees, the proximity to national parks, the night sky. She said no homeless in the streets but lots of suburban poverty and misery.

I've brought work's iPad away with me to try and get used to it. I kinda wish the OS they run on it wasn't so basic but it has a nice screen and good speakers!
I tried connecting an smb to it, and that was fine, but it won't play mkvs....
Plex with a plex pass is probably the best solution so you can download stuff for offline watch

Has anyone been with Bank of Melb for a fixed term before? I want to open one, and out of the banks that offer fixed terms to under 18s, BoM seem to have the highest interest rates. But I've never opened a fixed term account before, so opinions appreciated
Edit: I just realised I'm using the wrong terminology. I mean a fixed term deposit, not a loan
Iโd sooner chop my balls off than go with BoM for ANY product ever again. Ask me how they fucked up so bad we almost missed settlement then sent comms speaking about us as customer as if we pure fucking garbage.
I've got a regular savings acc with Aus Unity for 5.1%. BoM looked to be 4.8% but I didn't check their youth options.
Thanks. Aus Unity has a min deposit that's a little bit high for me at the moment. BoM is 4.8%, but 4.9 if you join and manage online. Honestly I'm not really in it for the interest as I won't deposit enough for it to really be worth anything. I'm mostly after a TD as a sort of forced savings program I guess. Having to give 31 days notice to withdraw anything is more than long enough to curb any impulse purchases
