Just a quickie: Is fishing and surfing defined as ‘exercise’ in current NSW rules?

Can get fined or all good?

Anyone else just noticing how annoying their housemate is?

Lived with my housemate a year now and it was awesome mainly because she’s only here half the time. She never does any cleaning or vacuum or picking up leaves and I was ok with that because she is usually at her bf’s but she’s now been home 2 weeks straight and has taken up residence in the lounge area where she moved her desk and uses speaker phone all day. Basically I can’t use living area - it’s my tv my couch. She contributes nothing in the house. I’m not working atm and can’t move so I’m stuck. I’m also restricted to my bedroom now. Worst thing is she’s actually quite rude. Always was but I let it go cause she’s rarely home but now it’s harder. In the past I’d try to say morning or hi and she leaves the room whilst I’m talking to her and she always looks at her phone when I’m talking to her. Now that she’s here a lot I’ve ceased speaking to her - I no longer say morning or make conversation with her. It’s not who I am so I feel really uncomfortable but I honestly can’t be bothered anymore.

How are others managing working from home in share accommodation circumstances? What is the etiquette? Do you all work in the living room? I’d of thought that would be too noisy and people should use their bedroom.

Moratorium for renters when not on a lease?

If you're on a rolling agreement how does this work? Could my landlord in NSW conceivably still kick me out with three weeks' notice if he wanted to or would he have to abide by the six months?

Bottle Shops are not Closing at Midnight

I'm sure many, if not all of you are aware of the topic at hand, so I'm sorry for writing the following:

The whole liquor stores closing at midnight thing is an April Fool's joke being used to promote a product.

I'm in one of the call centres for a liquor chain. We've been getting slammed for a bit now about what's happening, been copping far more intense abuse than usual, etc. etc. This joke has made things far, far worse as now we're dealing with far more calls asking about closing down.

The customers asking about being open are fine when they find out which is awesome. If you see anyone sharing the "news" article, or talking about it, then please let them know that announcements will come from official channels and otherwise it is safe to assume that news of closure is not true. There's only so much we can cope with.
