Just a quick warning

just letting other queer or visually queer people or just people in general, there have been some violent attacks happening around bendigo recently so please keep yourselves safe, recently a nb person has been hosiptalised due to this girl going around and bashing random people. be cautious around the mall and the marketplace area as this is where most of the attacks have been happening. the police have been notified multiple times and yet dont do anything because of the girls age. keep yourselves safe

Dog friendly swimming

Anyone know of a good spot for a dip, where dogs are allowed? Like crusoe but dog friendly. Open to creeks, rivers, lakes etc.

Why does Bendigo not celebrate Melbourne cup like the rest of the state?

I'm not a Bendigo local but I've been wanting to know since I moved here a few years ago. Why does Bendigo celebrate the Bendigo cup and have it as a public holiday instead of the Melbourne cup with the rest of the state?

Road rule question

https://preview.redd.it/d5ea3mf5pz1e1.png?width=1242&format=png&auto=webp&s=b78f6d7843d59c3c2dbe6ee3333d67fefb593b30

If there're no arrow sign on the road, may I know whether it implies left lane must turn left and right lane must turn right and the middle lane is for the one going straight only. There're enough space for both the left and middle lanes going straight and then merge afterward but is it legal or proper way to do?

Good Pud

Anyone been for a leisurely stroll past the old good pud building on High Street in most recent times? A beautiful smell is circulating around that premise and the one beside it. Reece plumbing and make your house a home would be loving the aroma surrounding it.

Driving test at Bendigo east

Hey guys! I failed my recent drive test in Melbourne (Carlton; bloody trams!). I’m super keen to re-do the test again this month and can only find the earliest slot at Bendigo east. Any thoughts on the driving test process here?

With part 1, Carlton had a reverse parallel park (no hook turn or 3 point turn) Part 2 involved a lot of intersections, roundabouts, lane changes etc.

I’m a bit nervous about booking this Centre since I won’t be able to practice much (it’s quite far from Melbourne) so keen to get as many tips on what to watch out for, speed limit etc.

Straw poll: what other social media do you use?

I adopted Reddit a couple of years ago, around the time Elon took over Twitter. Have found Reddit a far better, more interesting & respectful space than Twitter. Cannot stand Twitter, FB, IG, Linked and rarely visit them. Do love TikTok though so these days my social media use consists solely of Reddit & TT and that is enough.

Curious as to other Bendigonians and how you use, what you think of SM these days.

PS I’m Gen X if that is worth anything
