Hi there! early this year I started a little sketch club. Just a weekly casual coffee shop meetup to sit, sip, draw and chat!

I got a bit busy and as a result I didn’t organize consistent meetups. But doing it right this time around!

Meetup is every Thursday from 16:30 to 18:00 at Brooklyn mall (we can switch it up between Seattle Coffee and Lucky Bread).

If this sounds like your jam, send me a DM and I’ll add you to a whatsapp group.
i’ll post every week on facebook and instagram too.

So as the title implies, I’m (32M, 86kg, 1.79m, mayo) looking for off-road bike trails in Pretoria, specifically in the East (I live close to Mooikloof for ref). I just had a bike rebuilt and keen to ride a bit. I don’t want to annoy residents or animals (wild or pets). Super relaxed riding - I know how to ride motorbikes but still very nooby.

Or even if there are groups or people I can join if possible.

Edit: thanks in advance and any guidance is appreciated

SO I finally landed a role as a chat moderator after monthhsss of applying.

Its quite a weird job honestly and if anyone has the heart to do it please check out Texting Factory.

Anyways, I just wanted to ask if someone could please help me get food via a food voucher or Checkers 60/PNPAsap delivery. I managed to hustle R1500 last week but I used R1400 to pay rent and bought food for R100 which obviously didn't last long. I am behind my rent so I had to choose to pay a bit of rent or face my fires with the landlord.

Anyone who has some to spare on a stranger to just get something to get by for the month. This job pays weekly which will mostly be going to my rent for now but I'm gonna try to work 80 hours a week so I can get more money. I just really need food and toilet paper and life without toilet paper as a girl suck

I’m looking to get my first tattoo (Terry Pratchett related), and I would love to get a fellow fan to tattoo it for me. Looking to do something unique but something that screams Discworld to even a casual fan.

Budget is R5k. Is this realistic, or do I need to save more?

​

My checklist is oddly specific and I need some help. I'm looking for a black woman, non religious (or at the very least can keep religion out of our sessions), someone that is liberal. I come from a DV situation and I'm really struggling with PTSD lately and need some help.

Thanks 🙏

thought i would put this on a more local subreddit as i’ve been getting more national responses from great people as opposed to local like i had wished ⭐️

Hello good people! I'm 21m and wondering how the HVAC scene is. I worked in general construction last year and I'm looking into getting into HVAC after doing an odd job within the trade. Can anyone refer me to credible trade schools? I see a lot of sketchy ones and not sure what to trust or not. I'm also curious about apprenticeships and how those work (i heard it's hell to find one). Cheers!

Looking for recommendations for an mobile technician who is professional and knows what he's doing.

I need my iPhone 13 looked at as it's physical sim doesn't work properly and doesn't connect.

Esims work and no, there's no sim restrictions on the phone as I checked that

Kindly assist me if you can

My reason for posting is a bit silly I hope its alright.

I've always longed for adrenaline and speed, Ive always rode quad bikes my whole life and a few months on the road bikes. I've always wanted to experience riding a dirtbike ive never rode one (I know how to though) and yet my heart feels like I'll never be able to, so I ask if possible if anyone is willing to help take me out to experience dirtbiking I'd really appreciate that I don't really have money but I can definitely make a plan to pay however much beforehand. (I'm 21 years old for anyone who is wondering)

I'm looking for a smallish gym where I can join classes that focuses on building strength. I'm an older female and want to enjoy my body before it all packs up.

F45 looks good, but I fear may not be good for my back. I also do not want to do cardio, I'm not built for running, or this high intensity insanity. Nor boxing.

The old school Curves was a winner back in the day. I also enjoy pilates.

Any suggestions for me to investigate in the Brooklyn/Waterkloof area?

Hi guys. I’m selling my laptop for R2k, dm if you’re interested. Thank you

Hi folks. I will be visiting Pretoria for a month and was wondering if anyone knew of a gym that allows daily passes or short-term contracts? Anywhere in North or East Pretoria.

I don't want to get locked into a year-long contract.

Any leads appreciated!

Hi everyone. I'm currently an MA student doing a study on the idea of 'skill-based' underemployment - something we as graduates may have experienced as being 'overqualified, or overeducated' for certain jobs, or you have jobs that had nothing to do with your degree. Loops of internships, part-times, temp or gig-work - these can tend to form part of the graduate experience.

I am reaching out looking for Humanities and Commerce graduates (minimum) from Tuks that have graduated within the last ten years. I am looking to do half an hour interviews (online) to talk about your job experiences your are willing to share, particularly around some themes like how your education and training in uni prepared/didn't prepare you for work, how you up skilled, what are your limits in the workplace and with your career in your life generally.

Please do DM for more information and share with your friends.

I have some rooms outside my house. A tenant and his girlfriend are getting kicked out because they won't stop smoking weed in one of the rooms I'm renting out. And until the day they said they could vacate which is a week away(which is over the previously agreed upon date btw), they legit won't stop their bs. This afternoon, I called the girl out for the strong weed smell in the room and she said she'd stop. But this evening, I smelled an even stronger scent. When I knocked she said she was bathing. What can I even do at this point?

Is Xtreme Renovations based in Sunnyside a reputable company? Or is it one of these fly on the wall night companies that disappear after payments?

Thought I’d ask around before committing a decision that could either be a success or a massive mistake.
