Housing Shortage

" $2,000,000.  "

That's cheaper than a llifetime of renting ! .

Then finding your pension is less than your rent .

Geez Louise, that's depressing.  Share or go bush. Hit the road in a cheap caravan. Go to  a Country where things are better. .   Nev

Toongabbie doesn't seem like much of a place.  Nev

Night worker's are hard at it to night. 

I wonder what daybreak will bring .

we were promised a roundabout a few years ago .

Perhaps they didn't forget us after all.

Then you will get Centripetal accidents in a roundabout way.   Nev

If its there this morning, its a magic roundabout.

[willedoo]

Where I live the traffic is getting to the stage where they're putting traffic lights at roundabouts or getting rid of them and installing normal traffic light intersections. It's only happening on the really bad roundabouts, there's thousands of small ones that still work ok.

[willedoo]

With the roundabouts with traffic lights, the lights are only in use at peak traffic times. The rest of the time the roundabout functions as normal.

[facthunter]

Roundabouts intimidate a lot of people. and are not safe for motorcycles with a lot of other cars around. Neither is stopping to make a right turn.   Sometimes even stopping at a red light is not safe. Nev

no magic ! . After all. They have forgotten us. 

I can't see what they were there for .

Maybe repainted the white lines .

Disappointed.

Now they have taken the " service road for " bicyclist .

That's the upgrade for motorist in this region. 

It doesn't matter how bad it is , for the motorist getting into the traffic flow .

Just paint cycle paths were the cars should be going .

no seat belts , no helmets , no road- worthy tests nor insurance for  bicycles trailers,  with passengers.

This has something to do with a Housing shortage? And I've run out of anti depressants, space.  Nev

We should all chip in and get Spacey a T shirt that reads, "JAGOM" ("Just Another Grumpy Old Man").

Order one for me while you're at it....

I think we have to be careful. I don't know IF He would cope with being happy... I'm more worried about what it's doing to me.  I thought  I was a survivor.   Nev

[onetrack]

We're all survivors, Nev. I've outlived a lot of people I knew, worked for, worked with, and associated with, that I thought would've lived a lot longer.

My PAPER address book is full of deceased friends. It's NOT easy.   Nev
