Decent Knife Sharpener In Brisbane Who Doesn't Use A Machine?

Hi people. I live in Brisbane on the north side. I have some expensive Japanese knives that I need sharpening. I don’t want to take them to these standard guys who use belt grinders to sharpen the knives. I’m looking for some one who loves their job and really wants to look after my knives using just their hands etc. Any thoughts? submitted by /u/Dave_Maxim [link] [comments]

Advice please: Replacing alternator on Mini Cooper

Female here – admitting that I’m hopeless with car related issues, and thankful for any advice. I know enough to know that the alternator on my Mini Cooper is kaput and the almost brand new battery isn’t retaining charge. Car is currently abandoned on my residential street. Can just anyone (like Lube Mobile etc.) replace my alternator or is it ‘special’ because it’s BMW parts and the access to the alternator is a bit squishy etc.?? Should I know anything else before I display my ignorance to a mechanic, for exploitation?? Recommendations would also be welcome, if you’ve had a good experience with a mobile mechanic! Thanks r/brisbane _^ submitted by /u/missy_stellar21 [link] [comments]

Does anyone know what the postmark stamps mean on a letter or where we can find out? Backstory is that MIL received an anonymous letter with copies of mean stuff SIL said about her on Facebook. I have been blamed because only the week before I added SIL on Facebook. It’s turning into quite the drama and as much as we try and ignore it we are being continually dragged into it. All the in-laws live interstate and have been told that there is no way to track where letters come from; however that doesn’t seem right to us. The postmark on the letter received reads: HRMC MLOCR 544 01MAR. We assume it means “Hunter Region Mail Centre” and 1 March but have no idea what the middle letters and numbers mean. Does anyone know? Also if we posted from Brisbane Northside would it say something that points to it
