Ruby Fraser2026-07-07T20:34:18.000Z

Taylor Wright2026-07-07T20:14:18.000Z

30% more?? dude that's savage. park further away and walk ya lazy bugger

Ruby Fraser2026-07-07T20:38:18.000Z

nah you lot don't get it. my ute full of tools can't just park 2km away. council needs to sort out loading zones instead of those stupid cycleways

Kai Thompson2026-07-07T21:04:18.000Z

Finn Walker2026-07-07T21:01:18.000Z
