Thanks :)
I've clicked around a bit this morning and so far so good, so all might be well again after your changes.

I looked it up and their normal charge for dogs is $395 while the normal charge for cats is $195 (rabbits normally $80). Pretty steep prices but I guess vaccinations (plus desexing if necessary) and housing/looking after the animals adds up quickly so they need to get enough back to keep operating.
Edit: Also still a lot less than what you see many dog breeders selling dogs for - I've looked occasionally and you see people wanting thousands of dollars for a puppy.
The same argument that won the gay marriage plebiscite - people should be equal under the law and, by extension, our constitution.
Last year, Australia showed how unengaged and racist this country remains by refusing to insert an Indigenous advisory voice
Convenient that the author forgot to mention that the very person they're writing about was a vocal No voter. You can say many things about Lydia Thorpe but politically unengaged is not one of them, and while she might be a little bit racist it's definitely not against Indigenous people.
I'll also note that the Tent Embassy had a giant banner hung up urging people to vote No, guess they're all politically unengaged and racist...
Yes, it makes sense that they'd be the first to lose seats to another non-major candidate. Another possible factor is that the Greens lost protest vote value due to being known as part of the incumbent government - that's going to attract less of the votes from people who want something different (but aren't going to vote for the Libs).
That's pretty much what I was expecting; the Liberals getting enough seats for a majority would have been quite surprising so it was really a matter of how close Lab/Lib would get and who Labor has to negotiate with. I am not surprised that Labour's primary vote is middling considering it's been two decades in power, the fact that they still hold power is a real testament to how badly the Libs are received in this town.
The rise of independents is interesting, and I can't say I dislike a shift away from party based politics. How it turns out is obviously going to be more variable though - I will be curious to see if they retain their seats after a term.
They tried other designs first but it was found you can't roller skate in a buffalo herd...
According to a news article I just read this morning gets the record for coldest spring morning ever recorded in Canberra, so you could say it was pretty chilly.
While you will get the fine notice you shouldn't have to pay it - there is an option to reply with a reason why you shouldn't be fined and being overseas at the time would count as a legit excuse.
Yep, like in other elections we do have pre poll and postal voting (with a valid reason and you need to apply for postal) but the standard method is turning up on the day. I'm not sure if that has any effect on turnout compared to other states.
Probably less likely than a federal election but I'd still give it decent odds of finding one (particularly if the school is trying to raise funds for something). I can't remember exactly whether this was during council or state elections but I have turned up to vote before and not found a sausage sizzle.
There are a few actual streets like that in that suburb - I had a look to see if I could find the location of the photo and I think it's Ganges St.
