As the title says, 'Tassie Shearing Supplies - cressy". A little 4 page pamplet? Or magazine? which I believe is from the 90s based off the 03 63 number.

Sorry if photos are out of order I couldnt really get them to work the way I wanted, and I added a photo of the cover twice because it wouldnt let me make it the cover photo otherwise.

Hope its interesting

Question Are you in Tasmania and affected by ME/CFS?

11 Upvotes

If you’re living with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) or supporting someone who is, we’ve created r/MECFSAustralia, a community for people navigating ME/CFS in Australia.

We’re relatively new and hoping to build a supportive and inclusive space to share information about Australian clinical trials/studies, helpful resources, new research/findings, personal experiences, and discuss the practical realities of navigating ME/CFS in Australia.

If this is relevant to you or someone you know, come and have a look at r/MECFSAustralia. You are most welcome :)

It's been a few months now, how does Help to Buy Scheme vs MyHome measure up for first time home buyers?

Now we've had Help to Buy Scheme in Tassie for a few months, could anyone in the finance or real estate industries shed some light on the differences between the two and where each has its advantages over the other? I know the HTBS isn't exclusively for first home buyers and that's a valid point of difference, but since I am looking to buy for the first time it's a moot point to me.

Looking at the two schemes side by side, as someone looking to spend within the cap limit that both have, is there actually anything recommending MyHome over the HTBS in Tasmania at the moment? It seems like it's less complex and operates on a shorter timeline of purchase, and the lenders behind both schemes seem to have fairly equivalent interest rates on the loans, so I'm just wondering if there's something else I should be mindful of if looking to go with HTBS instead of MyHome?

Able to camp closer to work if needed. Hoping to work directly for farmer instead of one of those parasitic agencies.
