  1. I decided to check for you by asking ChatGTP "is there someone named Nomadpete?" This was the answer: Yes — there is at least one online user who goes by the handle nomadpete. Here are a few details I found: They have a profile on the forum “AircraftPilots.com” where they’ve posted numerous comments (on topics like ultralights, Rotax 912 engines, etc.). Aircraft Pilots+2Aircraft Pilots+2 Their profile indicates a location of “Van Diemen’s Land, A little pissant town halfway between civilization and the South Pole / Australia”. Aircraft Pilots+1 They also appear to use the same handle on GitHub. GitHub On a travel/social-tracking site they appear simply as “@nomadpete” with a listing of many trip-destinations. Nomads.com I cannot verify any more about their real identity (full name, background, etc.) from the sources I found.
  2. He ran a fish and chip shop - they make great politicians.
  3. I am in Vic temporarily, last 47 years, always meant to go back to NSW.
  4. A proper funeral would have been better than swept under the carpet.
  5. I should have explained in my story, that the question of selling my property now arises because half of the $400 rent goes in costs. That now includes the Vic government land tax, rates, services etc etc. costs were much lower a couple of years ago. I will let you know what I decide, has to be decided quickly if the lease is to be renewed.
  6. Years ago I renovated a house built in 1865. I still own it, it is my only 'real estate' investment. It is rented out for $400 a week, the market rate here. Based on the council valuation, my return on investment is 1.4%. The lease has expired. Should I renew the lease, the tenant wants to stay, or sell it?
  7. So who is a trash talking skip tracer?
  8. 1893, the year the banks went broke, that’s how it happened.
  9. Aluminum?
  10. If you have a continence problem, public transport is an added risk.
  11. I sort of saw Musk as Gyro Gearloose.

    Wow, that requires a long memory. I was taken to that movie when it came out.
  13. This one on the Calder Highway just up the road. Took them about three years to build it.
  14. The big batteries smooth the peak, they can’t store enough to feed the grid.
