  1. True ! . I can visualise it now . A yobbo with his work boots on grans super-polished table . Beer can rings everywhere, beside the can in use Then the dirt stains across the white , expensive carpet . Gran doing his cooking , cleaning & laundry. For $50 a week ! . Then, " Deemed " to be earning $ 600 weekly by the ' social security ' . Cutting her pension by 90% . Leave your grandma alone & in peace. GreatGrandad spacesailor

  3. Lady up the road has had both knees done . She fine . My wife has just had her knees checked & the GP says ' operation ' , But the specialist says not yet ! . Also has heart problems, but specialist says. " stent not yet needed ". this is just ridiculous . spacesailor
  4. " Not the time for building ". So true , when there's so much empty office buildings . Let the ones that prefer to work at home . Do so . And , those that like offices live there . It must free up a few houses at least . Then again those empty offices could accommodate Lots of young couples , seeking a home . spacesailor
  5. 12 It's a guess spacesailor

  8. Well , I had to replace my " gutter offset " due to it rusting out , the angle of the down piece, was far to meager for the roof debris to flow to down pipe.

  13. I believe both, noggins & studs are straight. Not bent pieces ( warped ) of wood . spacesailor
  14. I agree with your ' hurt feelings ' . The wife picked the daughter's name from a " Jamaican flower " . I was told the name but not the spelling, So spelt as it sounded . ( phonetics ) . spacesailor
  15. Surly ! The price of petrol & diesel will drop, as soon as the lack of IC vehicles make a glut of unsold fuel . Whenever there's a surplus of any commodity, the price comes down . spacesailor
  16. but My daughter doesn't like her first name . So I told her to use her second name , First one unusual . Second one very common name . No formalities involved , if you get the extra name . ( I believe I spelt the name wrong , when registering her birth ) . spacesailor

  21. I'm with Aldi mobile. But the NBN has not made one month without a " maintenance " or some sort of " no " internet since it it was connected . Not worth the money, plus paying extra for the " landline . spacesailor
  22. The government's " free " light globes were ' fluorescent ' . Never had a free LED globes offer . And the front-door porch light was not changed , & is still the old incandescent spacesailor
  23. Those " free " government fluorescent globed blew my ' dimming switches ' when they were installed . Then I bought Aldi's LED globes & changed to them , myself . spacesailor
  24. I have that ' yellow ' lamp outside my front door. I think it's a bit expensive to throw out a perfectly good incandescent lamp , To replace it with a LED that will only do the same thing . so it stays untill it expires. spacesailor
  25. What about " Lilliath " Adams first wife , was it not she who bit the apple . Then Lilliath became more like Adam. spacesailor
