Re: Some Advice Needed re: Bogans and car parking

Haven't had a problem parker since the 16th. Lots of visitors coming but they all park on the road. Hope my chat worked. Not seen the neighbour recently. Will avoid any waves or greetings for now.

Re: How long is your commute?

I leave the house at 7.10 and at my desk at 8.25
