    Im not australian but in this kind of situation sans garden space. Its frustrating because I need to be looking for work and putting my best foot forward but yeah often you lose days here and there with dealing with the system. I should not even say here and there its like like every effing week there is a new thing and the full day is not bad if it resolves the issue. It really messes with your flow when you are piece mealing it out every day over a week.

      I’m sorry to hear about your situation. You mention garden space. Would there be community gardens or similar near where you live that you could take part in? Working with plants and the earth really helps plus you could make some useful connections. I hope all improves soon for you.

        unfortunately not where I am at now but I have used them before. man at one point I rented a place in a four flat owned by two sisters and one was like. we don’t sue the whole garden do you want to use half. im like yeah. get this. they had a guy turn the soil in the spring and they covered it in biodegradable week blocker stuff. to boot they regularly watered it with a sprinkler and maybe onece in awhile they would go out of town and I would do it. they even let me make a jurry rigged hoop house in the fall over it. it was pretty awesome.
