I was today, it was more than 10 minutes. Yes,, I understand they have to do load outs, but really this long is toooooo long. It is a busy saturday in Mosgiel today. It is not the first time this has happened. When it does I need to drive 5 to 7 km out of my way (instead of a 0.5km) to get home or longer to get to work.

Cat hit by car in Raynbird bay

On the 12th of Jan someone heading into town at about 6am hit my cat (large tabby) on the street outside my house in Raynbird Bay.
He died instantly it seems so there's nothing that could have been done, but PLEASE if you hit an animal outside a house (in our case the only house in the bay) you should let someone know or at the very least leave a note in a mailbox, it's not hard.
But being that we live on a pretty decent sweeping bend I'm going to assume it was some twonk going well over the speed limit, I've seen a lot of Peninsula residents driving like absolute madmen in the mornings on the way into town.

However, on the flipside the several drivers who came past while my wife and I were recovering his body were all lovely, to the lady in the white Swift I hope I didn't come across as rude when I waved you off.

Even so, If anyone knows anything I'd appreciate a message.
And if you hit an animal just let someone know, it's not hard and it goes a long way to alleviating the trauma.
And drive to the goddamned speed limits, once more; it's not hard.

Thanks all.

Sitting on this sofa is like relaxing on a warm cloud, its that comfortable! Seat cushions are well filled with white feathers, the other cushions are plump and comfy, not sure what the filling is. All cushions except the chaise cushion are zipped. From non-smoking, no kids environment, only one very small mark that you barely notice. Must have faded since we bought it but the soft red fabric has pile and therefore is variable in appearance anyway. The back of the sofa is also covered in the same red fabric so the sofa looks fine anywhere in a room - it doesn't have to be back against a wall. The seat cushions are very generous in size so this is a large sofa that is perfect in a large room space. The sofa has moved with us three times; this time we've decided to offer for sale at $1500. See the three attached photos, taken this morning as I put the sofa back together after vacuuming. Email me today on ecowburn at gmail dot com

Price: $1,500
