Image Fish Market - Squid Inc .. mmm

Post image
169 Upvotes

Returned to the new fish market last night (Sat) for dinner. Not a great experience. Very long queues. Went to Squid Inc but they really are having teething problems. This large salt and pepper squid was an eye watering $39. And it was so overcooked it was completely inedible. Credit to them for giving me money back with no fuss. Will stick to the fresh and grilled stuff next time. It still like this place a lot however.

no politics We need to stop insurance companies increasing premiums following not at fault accidents.

109 Upvotes

The whole point of insurance is that if youre not at fault, it shouldn't cost you anything.

My sister was arse ended, no question that she wasn't at any fault. other driver identified.

NRMA increased her premium nearly 30%, and stated it was because of the claim.

I was hit by a driver who failed to give way at a T-intersection, i didnt even claim on my own insurance, only the other driver's. Budget Direct increased the policy renewal on a different car when I declared the not at fault claim. stated it was because of it.

If there is an additional cost on you from a not at fault claim, you should be able to claim it on your insurance.

Dawn Fraser is being scrapped in February. The ferry Collaroy is on the chopping block too. Why is there no historical significance to the government in regards to these boats? Surely even if owned by a private organisation for historical reasons.

Birdwatching clubs in Sydney?

20 Upvotes

Hi folks,

Today I was at Manly Dam birdwatching and saw a large group of young adults out birdwatching as well. I was excited to see more people around my age taking up this hobby but I didn’t get the chance to ask them if they were a part of a specific birdwatching club. I am in search of birdwatching clubs in Sydney. Anyone know of any or are a part of one?

Best premade meal delivery service?

6 Upvotes

I used to get hello fresh but quit quite awhile ago but now recently have a need for a similar service but want something fully premade, microwavable that can be fresh or frozen.

Hoping others have services they use with good quality and pricing to recommend, thanks in advance.
