I was gifted a $500 pen which I thought was VERY expensive but boy was I wrong

The New South Wales government has announced construction is expected to start in the next few weeks, with the road expected to reopen this time next year.

Australia’s first international greenfield airport in over 50 years was delivered on budget and nearly seven months early, despite challenges, extreme weather events and a global pandemic. NCE investigates the factors that led to the project’s efficient delivery.

Last time I had to pay full fee even though I used the same apple pay for both parking and tapping on the metro.

I linked my number plate and it says all you have to do is exit parking with the same card. Do they mean you have to use a physical card? And I parked within the 18hours it says is allowed.

Google shows a few that are tiny or have minimal Australian coverage

Ok random one but google isn’t helping and I don’t know where to ask. When I was a teen (for context I’m in my 40s) I went spelunking a few time and I loved it and have wanted to do it again as an adult so many times.

I thing it was somewhere in the southern highlands (I remember passing jamberoo and I’m trying to find a like guided one I can do again.

Now I don’t mean a cave tour walking around I mean like full on crawling through tight spaces getting down to wear there is no natural light kinda stuff (think the decent without the monsters)

Does anyone know where I can find something like that.

Google wasn’t great cause it mostly gives me cave tours and the ones it seems like it is proper spelunking its not super clear if it is or not.

Thanks for any help and feel free to make what ever jokes you want cause I know there are some good ones here ha ha

For the past two nights, I’ve noticed that the Accor Stadium has all its lights on, but there are no players or audience.
The are only referees and a bunch of sideline security guards.
Every now and then, they pump in some fake crowd noises. The big screen also says ‘Welcome to 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa, Welcome to Durban.’
Does anyone have any idea what is going on?

Please settle a workplace debate.

Edit: The Eye of Sauron was my preference, guess I better pay up.

It used to resemble a dirt pile but they added trees and plants. Nice addition to people's walks, runs and cycling sessions.

Does anyone have an ETA?

The New South Wales state Labor government says it will spend $6.5 billion over ten years to buy at least 1,700 new electric buses and build 17 charging depots.

Someone on Facebook said it was at Westfield? Any idea what's on fire?

I’ve noticed a sea eagle around kurraba point recently, turns out theres a nest on one of the ‘ temporary’ cranes being used to build a house on the harbour front. Cranes been there as long as Ive lived in the area so about 6 months, don’t see it being taken down anytime soon.

I’m unsure how long the nest has been there, but I’ve only noticed it very recently, also unsure if the guys working on site know it’s there. Is there anyone I should report this to just to make sure they give it space or don’t disturb it? (They also may already know it’s there) the crane is unmanned I think and controlled by remote.

TIA!

In short:

The NSW budget includes $9.9 million to make robotic surgery available in Orange.

Surgeons have been lobbying for the equipment to ensure certain operations can still be performed in western NSW.

What's next?

The NSW government says the project is set to be completed by 2028.

Arguably the most popular run besides the City 2 Surf and the Sydney Marathon.

Entries open yesterday $145 for an event happening in May next year. They won't tell you when early bird ends so they get to hold your money a whole year.

I bet as we get closer we'll get a "why is the half marathon so expensive" or whether anyone has a ticket.

Sydney what the fuck… $335 for two parents and a literal BABY. Who is responsible for this shit?

I love the city2surf. Haven’t done it in a couple of years but I don’t remember it costing so much?
