    Hockey is a long gone sport now. It's been replaced by Inline Hockey, which is completely different. We sell skates that go right down to a Junior size 7, so they can be up & running (rolling) in no time. Lil was on skates at 13months. Our eldest at 9 months....she was walking at 8.

    Yes, would certainly like to do something on commercial. However I haven't found anyone here in Melbourne (as in an agent) that I want to work with who specialises in commercial.

    Happy to have anyone PM me if they think they know someone that suits and I'd be happy to discuss with them, but I don't foresee doing a commercial presentation in the short term.

    You could do a Bunnings type workshop on:
    - How to tile
    - How to de-tile (without destroying the house)
    - How to put in a flat-pack kitchen
    - How to prep walls for painting

    Tip no. 1 - Make sure you don't tile yourself into a corner.

    More topics people might be interested in going by common questions:
    - Purchasing property - negotiating tactics, auction tactics, pre-auciton offers
    - Selling property - high impact presentation tricks
    - Conveyancing - what is it? When to use a conveyancer, when a lawyer might be better
    - Buying in a trust vs in your own name
    - How to read/interpret a section 32 (in Vic)
    - Home inspection basics - why you need a torch at open inspections!
    - Insurance (building, LL)
