This place has always been pretty awesome, even when it was super crowded.
Karma works in mysterious ways, mate. That's what happens when you don't fork out for super, taxes, suppliers, and give shoddy service with your tucker. Do it right from the get-go and you won't cop it.
Well, it's no shocker that many folks can't splurge on dining out and backing local businesses. Pretty bummed about it, though! Ava Llyod
Oh no, it's such a bummer to see that charming cafe close its doors!
Cafe Injoy will be back in action in around a fortnight, bigger and better than ever. Gerald Carter
I can't give a fair dinkum opinion because I can't read the article about why they went belly up (stopped paying subscriptions).
I can't even! The rest of them hiked up their prices but these guys kept it real and gave us a massive serving size. Hannah Bianchi
Coffee prices in Canberra have remained stagnant for ten years despite increased overhead costs.
This is madness in Barcelona. More https://bit.ly/3VYQWO0
I hope they have jobs not dependent on tourists so I won't visit them, and I don't want them to come to England as a bucket of water might upset them.
Perhaps it's because property prices are going through the roof due to all the tourists flocking in. That's what the quick read seemed to suggest. It's a common occurrence in our popular tourist destinations.
Why are they asking tourists to leave? We were going to visit Barcelona but not anymore. Ben Smith
I'd straight up chuck my coffee at them if they soaked me.
What are they bloody reckonin'? They want no tourists, so the bloody pubs, cafes, restaurants, art galleries and whatnot will go bust, sack their workers, shut up shop, and then go beggin' to the government for some cash? Fair dinkum, some people are right idiots. Tourism is a huge bloody business f... View More
I want all those tourists to bounce and never come back. Let's see how quickly they switch up their attitude.
When the tourists stop showing up, they'll be out looking for work and money.
Barcelona is bursting at the seams with tourists! They're swarming from one sight to the next like busy bees. I remember walking by the Sagrada Familia and it was like a flood of people spilling out onto the streets, causing total chaos!
Do you think any Barcelona locals will stop going on trips? They'd be tourists too when they travel. If they keep tourists away, hotels would shut down and the protesters would be out of jobs. Looks like they didn't think this one through, huh?
Do Catalans want to have their own exclusive Catalan club?
Easy peasy- try somewhere else- lots of places would love to have you as a customer!
I reckon there won't be any Spanish tourists heading over to London or any other beautiful spots in the UK in the future. But hey, less flights means less impact on our planet so maybe it's not such a bad thing after all. Katrina Lynch
Boy, that nicely dressed and well-mannered crew chowing down sure seemed like a pack of trouble-seeking misfits!
I went to Barcelona ages ago and people there were so rude. No way am I going back there. There's way better stuff to check out in Spain, I think.
Let's hope that protesters can find a chill way to share their thoughts, and that tourists will show love and respect for the locals and their way of life. Hopefully everyone can vibe together in harmony.
They should be spraying their politicians with water for messing up the market and housing, not the tourists. Can you believe they're actually doing a good job of it in the UK now? Crazy! Pauline Clayton
It's kinda messed up how they expect all tourists to bounce... Some of us can't afford to jet off to Spain every year, we gotta save up for ages just to make it happen. Plus, most Brits aren't out here getting blackout drunk and embarrassing themselves. We're just trying to relax, do some shopping, ... View More
Growing up and living in popular tourist spots has taught me to understand the frustration with rude tourists, but I believe it's important to always be kind, whether at home or abroad.
It's like trying to find a needle in a haystack of tourists! Everywhere you turn, it's a sea of people and chaos. All for the love of that tourist dollar!

Nah mate, not keen. I love me dog just like I love me kids, so I wouldn't do that to them. So nah.
They're our fam, we can't just step all over them like a rug. You could hang up a nice pic instead to keep their memory alive, like I did. It really bums me out to see that rug there.
This post should have a warning and a different picture, not the main one.
How about we just invite grandma to the party too! After all, we're all family. Thanks, but I'll pass on that idea..it's too offbeat.

No way, fur-riends! I absolutely adore our pup, but there's no chance I'm going down that route. Our previous canine companion was turned into ashes and now has a cozy spot in a plant pot, helping grow a beautiful rose!

My bad, that's just hella creepy 😬. Different strokes for different folks, ya know?
Nah mate, I couldn't do it. Had a rough year with losing me pets. Me dog Rosie passed away early last year, then me cat Skittles in November, and me baby Oreo bun just this February. Had 'em cremated and their ashes are in a little box with their name on it. But this would just be a bit too strange ... View More
Nah, man. All my old pets were buried, but the last one we cremated. His urn is chilling on the wall where his bed used to be. I'm good with that.
That's weird, we had to cremate our dog back in April when he died from cancer. It was the hardest decision I ever had to make.

Oh no way, I couldn't do that to my little one, not cool, sorry!
No way! Just bury them in your yard, have a chat with them, and maybe put up a little headstone. Just don't leave them on the ground for someone to walk on. Angela Scott
I can totally see it in my mind. The idea of Toby's fur on the ground just grosses me out.
Nah, not feeling it. Can't picture my 18-year-old cat, who's passed away, just chillin' on the ground getting stepped on and dusty. Having him in his urn after getting cremated is all I need. Walter Robinson
Well, if you decide to turn the house into a creepy family museum after the last member kicks the bucket, I guess that could work. You could put everyone back in their spots by the fireplace, spruce up the place, and show it off to potential buyers for a spooky "day in the life" tour.
Nah, just no way mate. I bloody love me pets but this is all kinds of wrong.
If I had a beloved dog, I would want to keep him close, even as a decor piece like a rug or on a couch.
That ain't weird at all! I get hunting, no feelings involved. But bringing back a pet dog? That's kinda sketchy, maybe we should consider resurrection instead. A little necromancy will probably solve everything 😂
Nope. Every time I see that fur or feel how soft it is, it brings back all the sad feels. It stings just as much to see their collar or food bowl. Karl Robinson
How the owner chooses to remember their pet is personal and up to them.

This is the thing. They are a real pain in the backside. Tailgating is bloody dangerous driving. All tailgaters should be sent back to driving school and taught proper stopping distances.
Increase the number of road cameras to catch tailgaters and deter dangerous driving behavior.

Any domestic violence is a total bummer, man. Kids end up with emotional baggage and it's sad how many dudes are also victims, but no one talks about it. That's why so many guys end up taking their own lives. Paul Davidson
I reckon the issue down under is that we're in a bit of a pickle right now. Prices are soaring, wallets are feeling the strain, and it's causing some serious grief in relationships. Whether you're a bloke or a sheila, there's no justification for resorting to violence. Let's keep the peace, cobber.

Heazlett St. is where the pump track is located.

At least our rates give us stuff the community actually wants, and roads and parks that are looked after properly. Can't say the same for the ACT, mate.
