Looking for recommendations for a hair dresser in Devonport who is good with colours, specifically fashion colours.

Cheers in advance!

Hi everyone. I moved down in July this year and my parents are coming over, first time they’ve been to Tassie. I would love to show them around this beautiful state but I have the issue of their toy poodle that never leaves their side. Can anyone recommend some really pet friendly areas/activities to do/visit when they’re here?

Has anybody had any experience (or luck) attracting owls to your property?

I'm on a few acres in Collinsvale not far from the border with Wellington Park. Half of my block is bush and most of the property is surrounded by bush too. I've considered installing some nesting boxes but I don't know if owls will use these?

I haven't had to cut my hair in 3 1/2 years as Im mostly at home looking after mum and my brother.I can not leave the house for any extended period of time I worked security and sported a flat top hair cut, yer I know. each haircut was upwards of $50 every 6 weeks to maintain a professional look Ive save over 1500 just in cuts alone. Now I have long hair no big deal for me I grew up in the 60/70s.

My question, how do the locals feel about long hair? Are they all anal about it or who cares what you look like?

Where I live now no one gives a rats. Don't want to cut it if I don't have too, work is different ofc.

Hey there Tasmanians! My partner and I are visiting in December for 5 days and I like to get some suggestions right from the source. This input opportunity to have a vacation away from the kiddos for a few days.

We are flying into and out of Hobart and we’ll have a car.

We like hiking. Comedy. Food food food food. And anything nature related. Love to shop if we can find some local goods.

Does anybody here know how to join a pelagic birding tour from Eagle Neck? I see its really popular on ebird, lots of trip reports but cant find any tour operator doing it, expect for Inala Nature Tours. But their tour starts before I arrive. Im in Tasmania from 18th february - 07th march 2025. Thanks.

For instance if you were on business and need gigabit for your work. I imagine that Saffire would have it, and perhaps the casino and country club?

Hi! I live in the north of Tasmania (have my whole life) and I'm interested in finding companions to go hiking with. I'm a down to earth guy, I love the outdoors, film, music and good food (feels like a dating site profile lol) Feel free to send me a message if you are interested in hiking and camping around Tasmania just looking for chill people to walk with.

Considering moving over to tasmania from WA. I am currently working with westrac (caterpillar dealer in WA) and looking at employment with william adams. What's the work like etc? Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

Anyone interested/planning on going to this - specifically the Melbourne date?
EDIT: I already have tickets for the Melbourne event.

EDIT: Also, is there an AnjunaFamily TAS (or should we make one) - who want to meet up, listen to some Anjunadeep/beats generally EDM music? - I think that if we had enough people, we might be able to convince a venue to let us put on an event night or day - here in TAS/Hobart.

Ive been having a discusion with someone about councils and nature strips.

They say that all councils in Tas mow the nature strips. I dont think any do but there might be a couple.

So the Q is what council are you in and do they mow your nature strip?

(Nature strip is the usually narrow pieces of grass that borders your front lawn and the gutter)

If we want to increase housing supply people need to have confidence to build. Personally, there is no way I would build given the lack of consumer protections, you're rolling the dice.

I dealt with CBOS and I can't overstate just how reluctant they were to do anything.

No political party can say they are serious about housing reform without addressing this issue.

Greetings from Norway. I am in a bit of a pickle.. i dont want to say to much but it is fairly important. I need help to locate e man living in Tasmania. All i have is a name and a address, postal code and city. When searching online i can find the house, but not any information on the owner, or any results when searching the name. I dont know the laws or customs in Australia, or if there is any public records.

I mainly just want a phone number, or any social media accounts so i can contact the person.

If any can help here, or pm me that would be a huge relief for me. Like give me a link to a australian website to search up his name, or just anything like that.

No ill intent, any illeagal stuff. I just really need to come in contact with this person.

Does anyone have insider knowledge of what it's like to work at QVMAG? A mate of mine has applied there many times for entry-level roles (which they seem to advertise frequently, and are advertising again now), and never had an interview, so it got me thinking. Is it a good place to work, does everyone and his dog want to work there, do they churn through their staff, only hire internally, or just have a high bar for entry? I personally enjoy visiting QVMAG and I'd guess it would be a good place to work, but you never know. (Also asked this on r/Launceston)

Hey!! Just wondering who are the musicians who live in Tazzy I can check out? I know of 4 so far

1. Denni
2. Grace Chia
3. Emily Wurramara
4. Miss Kaninna

Anyone else I should check out? Or any bands pls, I want to support more local artists, buy their merch head to their shows etc…

In 2022 I kept hearing from Launcestoners that people who hated Morrison and Dutton voted for Bridget Archer because she's moderate and would hold the leader to account. She ended up winning with a swing to her and I think she'll win again given the state of the economy and her personal vote.

How popular is Bridget though? I understand she has some sort of personal vote but by how much? If she wasn't the candidate would the Liberals have still won Bass? Do you think with Dutton being more to the right that she'll lose to Labor or will voters see through that?

Just curious.

I'm looking to bus from Launceston to Freycinet NP and then back a few days later. I think there is one change to a different bus in St Mary's. I haven't used public buses in Tas before and am wondering how reliable they are, ie do they always show up, are they usually on schedule? I'm a bit nervous about getting stranded in St Mary's if the 10 minute connection doesn't work out as scheduled, and also need to catch a flight a few hours after I'm scheduled to get back to Launceston. TIA!!!

Hi there, my friend Nepo and I are coming to Tasmania on 2nd of January and we want to explore the Island for 7-8 days. Since we both are 19years of age, we are not able to rent cars ourselves, since the rentals only let people from 21 upwards rent cars due to insurance policies😢

We are mainly looking for a way to get around Tasmania, explore and have fun, we are especially interested in the nature spots there of course😁

This is why we are trying to find someone who has similar plans and might be able to get a car, so we could all split costs and have a nice time in Tasmania together.

Just in case this does not work out: Is there any other good way to get around in Tasmania? Do you guys know a good travel route for two guys, who are interested in nature and only have like 7-8 days?

Btw we're both from Germany and will arive in Hobart on the 2nd of January.

Greetings Nepo and Matt😁

HI Hubby and I are coming over for 5-7 days . we are from Perth but flying in from Melbourne 1st . We are wanting to drive around. what are some must see places. Is 5 days long enough or need a few more. we would like to stay in Hobart for a few days. Flying back to Perth from Hobart. We plan to hire a car for the duration.

What else should we know.

We are going to Bruny Island and had planned to visit the light house - $25pp. However it seems we must also buy a National Parks pass and it looks like only the annual one is an option for Bruny Island ($92). Can anyone confirm whether we need the pass to do the lighthouse tour? We won’t be using the pass anywhere else and there’s no way we’ll pay $142 for a short visit to the lighthouse.

Hey I’m a 21 year old apprentice carpenter in my 2nd year thinking about making a move to Tassie.

I play footy, basketball as well as fishing & kayaking in my free time and interested in getting into snowboarding, surfing, dirt bikes and enlisting in the Army Reserves to spice my life up a bit.

I’m just wondering what town would be the best fit for that kind of lifestyle. I’m also concerned about the quality of people, dating scene and how easy it’d be to make friends with some of the same interests?
