No call back from Kleen Design/Urban somethingsomething. I can only imagine the managers weren't keen on the idea of forgoing the Brunswick St tax.

Have since found 3 local sources for DK Jenga that compare favorably to ordering from the states with postage ($40-$55). Fuck you Kleen Design/Urban RipOff.

I CERTAINLY HOPE YOU NOT SURVIVE IN THIS FRAGILE RETAIL CLIMATE.

WHY YOU SHOUT WITH ACCENT

Basically I could go on and on and on and on (again) abt price discrepancies but I think the consequence is playing out fatally as we speak so

I mean even my internet-fearing father is considering buying car parts from the UK

LOL was that reall a staff member of UA that replied? CLassique!

I think ive been into the St K store - I bought a pink stuffed pig pillow for my neice when she was little, thinking it was exclusive and groovy, it was likely neither and now I realise I was prob ripped off too.

Good lord Packer jr is a frightening looking human. I mean he actually looks like a political cartoonist's caricature, for real.

"One Armed Point" is an odd name for a place. I mean of course you point with one arm.

Well, they lowered the price to $44.95, albeit in a back-handed manner by putting my full name in capitals in the item listing on their website. If anything it's a result.

I think they took his name out, can't see it

Haha wow this store sound like a bunch of dicks. how unprofessional.

The TRIUMPH of Cadel Evans and the COMEBACK of Tina Arena.

And the FASHION of Scott Sunderland.

an uninformed attempt to march on rupert's turf, yes

problem for scott is that rupe has the panache to pull that gear off

[ insert 'pulverised' pun here ]

My thanks to whoever diffused the bomb in #Mosman

Achievements:

• Defused fake bomb

Is it bad of me that my first thought upon hearing it was a complex fake was "oh she did this herself for the attention". Bloody Ygen media, look what it does to my cynic levels.

Achievements:

* Gently sprayed fake bomb out of bottle in a fine mist for scent-sampling
