  1. Not ' sadness ' at all !. How many get to live " free " from the futility of war , Never , to even think that they will be conscripted for " Canon fodder " . I am the very first in all my ancestors not to be in the Army . ( unfit for the RAF ). my grandfather would turn over in his grave . ( ONLY WOUNDED ,3 times in 3 wars ) . spacesailor
  2. My wife & I are 'temporarily ' in this house . I always said " a few year's then move elsewhere ". My grandaughter says " it's home base " just incase !. spacesailor
  3. How about a 'solar' street payment shade . Attached to the existing light pole. spacesailor
  4. Gay !. Not too many are happy ! . Like the Hetro's are a ' happier ' lot " most of the time " . ( should I put my name to this , ( I think not ) ).
  5. Fell. Off a high cutting ( like a cliff ) were the road was widened, thus removing part of the walking trail . No barriers were put in place to even warn people! There was danger ahead . Poor motorists were confronted by a ' falling person ' in front of them . The victim would be deceased by the fall and I don't know if a vehicle hit them . It made the news but , swept under the carpet there after . spacesailor
  6. I have found the " outback " too cold at night ! . The East Coast stays warmer longer into the night so I don't need that big bombfire ( Dresden 1945 ) that most travellers have before bedtime . spacesailor
  7. IF !. Someone falls 10/20 m in front of a car , at 90 kph Could the driver be excused for causing an accident As happend on the m1 north of Sydney. When a bus-walker took a step too far . After the trail was terminated without a guardrail . spacesailor
  8. NOW , the. Rich use " novated leasing " that give them a $ 250,000 Mercedes EV , Including all ancillary expenses! . All paid before Tax . spacesailor
  9. NAH . Don't deprive them of their ' suicide ' . Lend them a way-out of their despair! . spacesailor
  10. Financial 'rip-offs ' & A Ponzi scheme ! . before we 'payed off our mortgage, we were warned ,to be careful were the " title deeds " end up . It seems , left with the ' lawyer's ' they could be used by said ' solicitors office ' . As collateral for their schemes . I looked at our title deed & found a miscellaneous entry. The previous , & first owner said he didn't know anything about it , as he had never seen those deeds . My lawyer told me it could have been the first owners, solicitor company . spacesailor
  11. As the lady with her I continence pants on " you just smile " as others cross their legs . spacesailor
  12. Today's weather prediction is 32° plus then a storm . It didn't happen , A tiny bit of rain, then the sun came out again & still 32° . spacesailoor PS. : 2050hrs, 30.5° ( call it 9pm )
  13. I find the public transport is a long & tedious route. and not anywhere comfortable. The end of a plus , forty minute trip, will leave you with a twenty minute walk , to your destination. But that car trip can " drop-off " outside your destination, only leaving a half hour finding A vacant parking space . LoL spacesailor
  14. Yes ! . Public transport ! . I had an " opal " card . used it last year now my money's gone & I have a nice new-one . Just have to put more money in . Then hopefully it will not be stolen by the operators. It did feature on TV news , that's why I & my other half checked . Their words 'blocked ' . But we still are expected to pay again . KEEP CASH . OR KEEP FEEDING THE CARD. spacesailor
  15. My gripe !. The whinging commuter's have had Tuck's Rd " shut off " from Fitzwilliam Rd. After their complaints of being held up , while allowing Tucks rd residents to get out. Only one access to the whole community. spacesailor
  16. What l . No power-band . I won't miss it . spacesailor
  17. I got lost in the " Birmingham Bullring " , and that's no bull !. ( 1963 ish ) . Just couldn't find that left turn , without a no exit sign . When all the traffic had come to a halt the police directed us 'lost ' drivers out a " no exit road " Going against the sign . spacesailor
  18. I agree , the Amber I thought, to give me three seconds only stayed on for two seconds . With the two seconds of green , I should have floored it , and risk loosing control Dawdled I did ! , thinking I had a second up my sleeve. not happy Jan !. spacesailor
  19. The wording is not for my interpretation , It is , as written. " any vehicle in the roundabout " . I checked it , again , then again . spacesailor
  20. Then that law needs change . No good, a law that makes people criminal should be changed . octave , I was stopped at the intersection, on a green light, ( congestion ahead ) I started off , then the light changed Amber , no rush , it's usually three seconds before the red , so didn't accelerate. I was almost over the line , when it turned red . half a bloody second to catch my rear end with my back-wheels over that line , just the quater panel in the red zone , any vehicle could pass behind me . Bloody revenueing again . spacesailor
  21. To answer that !. I safely, but slowly crossed a traffic light intersection on the green . The light changed and I was fined $ 500 for my one half second on the red . we are obliged by law ! , to obey , to the letter of the law . Can I , change that . spacesailor
  22. Give way! To stop & wait untill clear, to proceed . And your definition is ?. spacesailor PS. : to egress my road was " make a mad dash " between speeding vehicles . Not safe at any speed . MY neighbour was hit while crossing Fitzwilliam road on The pedestrian crossing . Othere have been killed there , ( plural ).
  23. The law ( road rules ) states " any vehicle " no matter where in the roundabout has president. give way . You could cop a fine ( revenueing ) . spacesailor
  24. My ' dumb ' meter ' tells me the cost ! I just ' note ' the " analogue " reading then deduct that from the final reading , multiply by forty cents That will be ( with the stat cost ) my bill . If I get it all correct. LoL spacesailor
  25. My daughter had to have a " smart meter " , & the cost went through the roof for " equipment " . My house is 50 years old !. yet I still pay for that meter . Perhaps it wasn't enough to pay it off . spacesailor
