21st Party Face Painter

Hey there folks, So I’m trying to organise a Shrek themed 21st surprise party for my girlfriend and, knowing the people I’ve invited, the chances they actually dress up for the party is minimal. So I was thinking of getting a face painter for the party, but looking online everywhere I look seems to specifically say they do kids parties. I was just wondering if anyone has any recommendations if they know anyone who would suit this kind of party, or just any help at all is massively appreciated. Thanks guys submitted by /u/imnotfuckingcreative [link] [comments]

To the good Samaritan who attempted to help with a flat tyre at Herston Hungry jacks but left the car on 3 wheels when the Jack didn't hold…

I think you just might be a hero. I’m pretty sure the people who asked for your help stole the car. Police were just over there with a woman going through all the items in the car with rubber gloves on. From what I could tell she was likely the owner. I saw you walk off with a look of “oh damn i fucked up… sorry” on your face but you most likely helped locate a stolen car! Have a beer mate you earned it! submitted by /u/FaceOfMutiny [link] [comments]

Driving Brisbane to Darwin

Hi all Bris dwellers. Has anyone ever driven from Brisbane to Darwin? My partner and I are thinking of doing a driving holiday from Brisbane to Darwin next year (may/june), stop offs on the way to do the tourist thing. We’re both keen fishing types so have a hankering to go to places like Normanton. Ideas on time and suggested routes, places & best time to go??? Maybe 2-3 weeks. submitted by /u/notbeach [link] [comments]

Ladies cricket

Does anyone know of any (preferably outdoor) women’s or mixed cricket teams on the Northside that are after another female player? I have never played club cricket before but I have a basic understanding of the game and am fairly co-ordinated. I am looking for a club/team/coach willing to take the time to teach technique etc. After playing club soccer for many years I am after a bit of a change. Thanks! submitted by /u/Biodiverse [link] [comments]
