Victorian surfing business.

Hello fellow vcitorians, (targeting surfers here, but feel free to read)

I recently was interested in surfing quarantines, the surf break that is only accessible by jet ski or boat, thinking there would be some kind of charter or rental to get there. I was wrong. I think there is a gap in the market for not only victorian surfers, but backpackers and internation and domestic travellers. I was just curious to get an opinion on if people think there would be some kind of interest in this kind of industry. and get peoples thoughts and comments. Thank you!

question about victorian rental units and bills...

a friend of mine has been renting for a while, her plumbing also connects to another unit next door. these places are one of those "stick as many units as you can on a giant block of land" you know the type.

anyways, she's been having issues with her plumbing, her kitchen sink has been filling up with water, out of nowhere. my guess connected to the other unit as well. i bought her a plunger, and it seemed to help slightly, but not enough. and also she has no access to her neighbour. she eventually called the rental place and they got a plumber to fix it. the real estate slugged her with the bill.

is that right?? she's only recently moved in and its been an ongoing issue that just got worse and worse. would this be something the real estate or the owners would have to pay??

Why is Woolies so busy but ALDI is dead despite the clear value of ALDI?

There's a Woolworth's attached to an ALDI where I live, and I went into Woolies first and it's balls to the wall, super busy, and then I went to aldi next door and they're overflowing with meat and at a MUCH cheaper price, but there were maybe 6 people in the store? What am I missing here? It's been like this for a while now every time I go. Why won't people shop at aldi? I just bought 2 days worth of food for $28. Woolies some steaks cost more than that.

camping spots and supplies for a first timer

Hi all wanting to go camping with my friend possibly around easter break.

This is the first time either of us has gone, so just wondering what sort of supplies will we need and any good beginner-friendly areas with amenities.

Any specfic supplies needed and where do we get them from

Looking to stay somewhere within 2.5 to 3 hours of Melbourne.

Cheers

Victorians’ what are your experiences from changing career paths eg. uni to trade etc.

Hey all, I’m hoping you can give me some advice on changing my career here in Vic, I was interested in seeing how hard it is to move from uni to a more trade focused career path ? Would I need to do tafe ? Or jump straight into an apprenticeship? I’m 20 and finding that uni just isn’t doing it for me.

I’ve been considering cabinetry or something woodwork based considering my interest and experience in woodworking from school and want to know how many careers there are that there that involve these type of skills. I’m aware that VCE is more on the theory side but am keen to move into a career that makes use of my application skills. A real hands on job. Both for skills I’ll be able to use outside of and during work.
