  1. That car issue qualifies as a Legitimate GRIPE. . Nev
  2. Probably Not. Local slang can be deliberate as an identifier and confusing to the Uninitiated.. Without looking at People it's harder to get the Meaning/intention as accurate. Communication is an ART. Nev
  3. It's Lorem ipsum (lat) a non sensical fill in word. We generally just use a swear word to fill in till our Brain thinks of something. People who swear a lot don't have to think as fast . Nev
  4. Plenty of Latin derived talk talk around. Churches use it and doctors used to write Prescriptions in it. Pidgin is used in PNG as a bastardised language.. ( I may have the spelling wrong) it uses words Like Buggarup for Broken. A Binatang (mosquito) IS a small Plane A Balus is a large one.. and so on. Nev
  5. Marty-d. Hypothetical situation. They don't talk. They communicate on their I Phone. OME You are requiring they Comply with our ways, or else. . Is that fair? Sentences are structured as we are used to. Nev
  6. Most governments will rely on that excise for revenue. This assistance can't go on forever. We still have our triple "A" rating, That has a direct effect on what government borrowing costs. it's normal to borrow for Infrastructure same as it's normal to borrow for business or sell shares to fund it's initial and expansion costs. Nev.
  7. It's logical for them to assign another word/name for any NEW Object or Phenomenon they observe as all peoples have done. Nev.
  8. Who said about night, but batteries would take care of that storage is the big Game changer. Quick response. Nev
  9. As far as I know the aboriginal languages have NEVER been in written form, and "their" FLAG is a recent thing. An indigenous guide I had at Uluru one time was from Katherine and couldn't understand one word of the Local Lingo all of whom lived well out of town which is Ultra Modern, Costly and thoroughly out of character.. IMHO. Nev
  10. There's Hundreds of different aboriginal Languages and No one could know all of them. Nev
  11. Of Course. Farmers don't pay it either on farm use vehicles. Nev
  12. There's probably 100's of Aboriginal place names already.. Nev
  13. Excise is to Make and repair roads. If you don't go on roads, why should you pay the excise? . Nev
  14. You tend to get killed in war zones. You can easily get killed riding a Pushbike in traffic. Young people tend to take more risks. . Only young pilots were good in fighters. Nev
  15. Societal disruption and Breakdown of the rule of Law will be the biggest Problem. WE are very interdependent, whether we like it or not. Nev
  16. There's LESS heat going to the roof's surface, once the Solar Panels are Installed. Cooking in daylight hours would cost BA. Some Bunning's Roofs have been done. too, Nev
  17. If you were on gas the situation will be worse. The connection fee for Power is at present about 150%of the price of hiring a set of Oxy-acetylene bottles. Eventually the system will be able to process the feed in Tariffs better and the Payment will be a bit more realistic.. More storage anywhere will bring that change. Nev
  18. Probably Making the best effort of any country with regard to addressing climate change. Compare to Trump who says it's FAKE. Nev
  19. There was a Large number of Dutch Nationals on that MH Plane. GON, I also went to Granville tech doing Organic chemistry for one Year. Nev
  20. Well Trump doesn't grab ME at all and never has. I agree 100% with his Neice Mary, about his condition and suitability for the POTUS role. There was a TV show called "That's MY Bush". A satire which ran for a (short) while . I think I saw about 3 Episodes. Incredibly funny. BTW I think Bush is Fanny-hair. I've lived a very sheltered Life so feel free to correct me If I'm wrong. Nev
  21. I don't see it that way. Nobody has any real idea how this New guy from Birmingham will perform.. The type of Media people HEAPING on him would make ME think Starmer HAS to be OK or why would they want rid of him? . He earned his Knighthood, He did not JUST inherit it like most useless clots do.. Britain is changing leaders far too often for it's own good. With the Tories it was mind bending and look where they are. Nev
  22. It gets hot there often. It's common to take a break in the heat of the day then come back later to work and eat about 2200. Nev
  23. They have an economy Managed by the State which exists in a free trade World.. (in theory) which cannot cope with China's success and efficiency. No Place in history has been transformed so completely to lift wealth and facilities and with a large Population as well. It would still be Likely the way the West has treated them has NOT been forgotten and why would it? Nev
  24. Bugger No Planes to watch. Did you go to a Tech College ? Nev
