I see your issue. In my experience over here roll on is not as common as a good old squirt of cfc's under each pit of a morning.

yeah, i sensed that seeing all the spray options. just not my thing.
none of this would be a major issue, except pit sweating has become more prominent for me as i've entered my 40s. no idea if this is normal or what, but i want to find the right option.

Cleaned up lots of leaves and possum crap on the deck and along the nature strip in our outdoor area, and nothing creepy crawly killed me.

I’m not so sure you’ve scored that correctly. When’s the last time you cleaned possum shit off your deck in the US of A?

As long as you wore your respirator you will be fine. Don't wanna breathe in that dried possum shit dust. That's not a pleasant way to go!

I’ll take little possum pellets over the massive amounts of goose shit I had to stay on top of at our lakehouse. Every couple feet a pile.

Pre-sale already happened, so if you're interested I'd jump on it.
Those shows at Kings Park suck. Every prick spreading out as far as they can with their blankets so they can have plenty of space for their cheeseboards and red wine. Its always a nightmare finding space and every wanker gives you the stink eye for even looking at them to begin to suggest they bring themselves in a little so you can fit. Every other arsehole setting up their folding chair to ensure no one behind them can see whilst simultaneously taking up more space than a small vehicle.
I love PJ Harvey but hate that venue (and "Days on the Green" shows generally). Out.

Watching a New Zealand crime drama called The Gone. Really good, but the only streamer that has it in the US only has the first 4 (out of 6) episodes. Wtf.

My hometown AFL team is having a promotion that I think my man NumbersUP will be very interested in.
We're the Eagles, we're flying high!

Very sad NumbersUP never saw my post above. Thought he would have been hell keen...
Anyways.
