Has anyone ever replaced the plastic chain on rollerblinds? I have one here that was broken when I bought the house and looking to finally replace it.

Like the Wish version of rock candy but yeah, sugary razor blades lol.
Work gave me a bag of lollies for R U Ok day and it’s mostly those hard lollies that shred your tongue to pieces.
So ‘if you are ok, you won’t be’ is what they’re saying.
I’ve been wanting to share this for a while now, but it is finally confirmed and official.
I am working with Libraries Tasmania to run a short story competition for kids aged 17 and under. Similar to the contest I did with the schools, I approached the library to see if they would like to do something similar and they said yes. It’s only being promoted on the west/north-west of Tasmania but it’s open to anyone in Tasmania. I hope to expand it statewide next year, especially if it gets a lot of interest.
I’m so excited to see this idea come to fruition. Creative writing is so awesome and I can’t wait to see what stories the kids will come up with.
Unfortunately, doesn’t really apply to the forum since this is a melbourne sub, but I had to share.
I sure hope so. Even if I don’t know about it, as long as it’s encouraging reading and writing in kids, that’s all the matters. Getting these messages certainly makes my day though.
It’s an amazing feeling. One that makes all the work worthwhile.
Thank you :)
Forewarning: Brag post.
I got a message from the parent of a student who goes to a school I did a talk at during book week who said “I inspired her son to come home and write a story” and jesus christ has that made my day/week/year. I don’t get them that often, but every time I get a message from a parent saying something like that it just means so much knowing there is a kid out there writing his own story now.
For research purposes…
What’s your boggle?
I have a rather big collection of collectibles (mostly Uncharted and Goosebumps stuff and Lego, but also some jurassic park things and Indiana Jones) and since the break up and moving into a smaller house I’ve come to think ‘what am I doing with this stuff?’ Yeah some is nice to look at, but it’s just clutter and start thinking will I have this stuff when I’m 70? What am I going to do with it. So I’ve been thinking about downsizing and selling a lot of it.
But I ask myself now ‘do I need it’, 'will it work, etc.
It’s absurd that you can work your ass off and have your mark lowered because of someone else.
Why do universities insist on group assignments?
It tastes like a Barney Banana.
Well I’m sold.
It is an amazing feeling. Really motivates me to keep going when that motivation can be lacking.
It didn’t say the school - email address was like a state wide one - but worked out a solution that will hopefully work.
Right!
I’d love to say thank you but the way the world is, it probably isn’t a good idea.
Ahh did not know that.
Officeworks accept them too dont they? Maybe other stores too? But I hazard a guess they go into drawers or the bin.
Yeah, ended up just having to use a connector for them was easy.
