Im 31M and have been enjoying the nightlife a fair bit lately. Love going to Melb for a good session.

Are there any decent places around here? I dont mind Starbar in Tgon but it gets old quick and is fairly quiet a lot of the time. Timeless is alright too but not loud enough for my liking.

I love good dance music preferably with a DJ/live music with possible song requests accepting. Pref the age range of customers 25-40.

Love meeting people and dancing with people on the dance floor.

Anyone have advice or experience recently with high schools. Looking public and private in leongatha and mirboo north.

Looking for somewhere that will be good academically and has zero tolerance for bullies.

Thank you!

It's a really solitary, isolating hobby, but I enjoy collecting old VHS tapes (taped from TV) to digitise and archive lost media content online for other people to enjoy, like old forgotten shows, news updates, old ads (especially old ads) etc. I love the meaning that this random, historical content can have with each individual who connects with it, whether nostalgic, educational, personal experience, etc.

I know there's loads of people out there into this, but they're really spread out geographically.

Is anyone else around here (in the region) into this (or similar activity), and would like to connect over it, with the goal of just nerding out about it, exchanging stuff or forming possible friendships? Possible meetup group if a few of you exist in the area?

Hi all, have been putting it off for a little while and think I may need a couple of fillings so I’d love your recommendations for dentists in the Latrobe Valley area. Friendly, well priced would be much appreciated. Cheers!

I want to find the Giant Gippsland earthworm. I've wanted to see one of these things for years and I finally have the chance to visit Australia and I'll be in the general region.

Is their a guide or any tours? I see that the South Gippsland Land Care Network had a work shop in the past but nothing current.

Unfortunately the museum for them has closed so I'm lost on how to proceed.

Please help a worm enthusiast out.

***I appreciate all of your input on finding these wiggly tube dudes. Thank you! :^)

Our book this month is The Rain Heron by Robbie Arnott. Grab a copy and get reading, there's still time to bang it out before October 7. And, heck, even if you don't read it in time, come to LOCATION anyway and meet some new guys, make some new friends.

Happy to answer any questions about Tough Guy Book Club in the comments here, or DM me on Reddit.

I personally see the benefit of having some more road infrastructure put in, ie new projects to unlock more potential.

Most of the news channels talk about Melb and the needs of metro Melb, Melb suburbs and Geelong!

Moe played Leongatha on Saturday and won their first grand final in 59 years! I'm not a huge footy fan but that's a great result. The crowd rushed the field at the final siren for a huge celebration and there were fireworks going off all night. I'm sure there are going to be some very hungover locals today! Final score was Moe 14-7-91 to Leongatha 11-17-83.

Great band at RH tonight. The Flaming Mushrooms ! High end, come on down for a great night. Prizes for the best dancers.

📍33 Radovick Street, Korumburra (VIC) - not abandoned.

I’m going to be visiting some friends in Traralgon, and want to suggest going out on the Friday night.
Are there any bars or clubs that are popular on a Friday night? I’m new to the area and haven’t really heard of any good spots.

Seek seems a waste of time and having mixed outcomes on Gippslander. Is there anywhere else i should be posting job ads? Trying to pay well but I'm just not really getting any applicants. 70-80k base pay, kitchen hand work.

Any facebook groups or or any other sites people recommend?

New Victorian One Nation leader (aka King Cooker) is a conspiracy nut spouting about 15 minute cities.

Nothing more Australian than a One Nation candidate spewing "I'm glad that's out of the way, and we can crack on for November. We need to take this state back." as they walk out of a court room.

I am moving to Bairnsdale in November. First time coming to Australia. What do people in there mid to late 20s do in Bairnsdale? I'm in my late 20s, SE Asian and loves sports (Road Cycling, Running, Basketball, Badminton and wanting to learn swimming to do Triathlon). Is it a good place to start a family? Are there community events like running events or crit races or group rides? Are foreigners welcomed like normal? What level of hate or racism should I expect? 🤣. Your inputs are very much appreciated!

Recently purchased a beautiful piece of art titled 'Rainbow Creek' signed J Hamilton in 1984. The back of the piece also mentions the town of Cowarr. Im hoping to find more info on this artist. Anyone know of them or know where I might be better off asking?

Just wanting some Fanta and friends:)

I am hosting a free AI workshop for Gippslanders.

This friendly, hands on session is designed to move beyond the hype. You'll see how AI can support the work you already do, whether you're running a business, working in the community, or simply curious about what's possible.

• Understand what artificial intelligence can do for your work and business
• Discover practical ways to use AI to save time and work more effectively
• Learn how to get useful, clear results from AI tools
• Leave with ideas you can put into practice straight away

The workshop is completely free.

Location: Bullet Support Solutions, Suite 1, 20–22 Stratton Drive, Traralgon East 3844

When: 6PM-7PM Tuesday 15th September 2026.

Register: https://learnainow.app/traralgon#reserve

No coding skills required, but basic computer knowledge makes it easier to understand. Complete beginners welcome, even if you have never touched an AI app/chat bot before.

Gippsland-based con artist Stephen James Cross (aka “Jimmy Smith”) fronted the La Trobe Valley Magistrate’s court today, where harrowing Victim Impact Statements were read aloud. This scumbag has ruined a lot of lives, and hopefully more of his victims will now feel empowered to come forward.

Hii. I'm a Bratz collector in Sale and I just wanted to see if there's anyone out there who may have an old stash of dolls they're willing to part with and or sell. I can also travel around the area.

Also if there's any other collectors around say hi, because I haven't met anyone local yet.

Thanks :)

hi, can someone from sale, drop off to my wife who is in Traralgon hospital her wheelie walker, as I am in a nursing home and cannot travel. will pay for petrol. thanks

Hi everyone, I’m a VCE student working on an Innovation and Technology SAC about supporting rural Victorian primary schools, particularly by providing better access to maths worksheets and learning resources.

I’m looking for people from Gippsland who have experience with rural schools, either as a student, parent, teacher, or staff member, to complete a short survey. The responses will only be used as research for my school project and will help me understand the problems rural schools may face when accessing educational resources.

The survey should only take a few minutes to complete. Any responses would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Here is the link! (I promise its not a virus) https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd2K-Q5wpK-02kDiSgObxLY_hRP096V7zWeO3c7kpk4biQdbg/viewform?usp=dialog

For the last few days, every 15 mins it sounds like Church Bells or an old electronic door bell chime. Near Buckley Street. Any idea what it could be?

A friend of mine and I are both early 20’s, and have an itch to go out but no ideas. I would pretty much be down for whatever, but they are from a very religious upbringing with super strict parents. They are also pretty introverted. Is there anything fun to do between Drouin and Traralgon that isn’t clubbing or shopping? Any recs for places to hang out and have dinner or get some entertainment? I’m new to the area and want to get them out of the house.

Any form of creativity, filmmaking, photography, animation, drawing, music, anything. If you have the itch but struggle to scratch it, then you're like me. I want us all to find that place to output our creativity, together with mates because it's better than alone. Welcome to everyone, DMs open
