    I Talked the Missus Into It ⛺️

    Yep, it is real, I saw this on one of those 'Mega builds' type show a few years ago. That 'coach' retracts into it self, and lowers down and the rear moves forward, steps close up into the body, the top deck lowers down and the entire body when closed is only about two feet longer and a foot...

    I would like to see/hear about what happened to these parasites, what fines were imposed, charges laid, compensation ordered, I see a lot of these types of reports however, in print/ or news reports/or current affairs type programs, there seems to be a lack of interest in reporting what was done...

    Expat spots one Aussie product overseas! Is this the start of a global shift?

    Sorry to correct a few people... Albo is stopping the export of live sheep to the Middle East, live beef exports to Indonesia were stopped a few years back due to animal protectors protesting the method of killing the animals, in the name of religious requirements however, they were resumed...

    RECENT COFFEE STUDY...

    Great one mOiOz, I think we will become 'Trumps next State', if Albo is slow in adding the 'Red Flag' to the group which now hangs behind him..

    Attention travellers: Discover the shocking post-attack duties that await if you ignore this crocodile warning!

    Tourist operators add to the problem when they take visitors out in their boats and entice the crocs to come out with chicken pieces being thrown into the water or 'dangled on poles' so the crock can jump up for a photo shot..It is the same with the sharks, tourists get into a cage and fish...

    Joke You may have done this before

    Nothing like telling a 'city boy' who was visiting the farm to have a 'wee on the electricfied fence', oh, that's right we left out the word 'electrified', there were a few 'high jump records broken on those occasions', and that was with no run-up.' lol

    ‘False impression’: National icon accuses broadcaster of crossing the line

    I have visited the 'special afternoon services' at the Memorial on at least 3 occasions. They were professionally run, well presented with the utmost display of reverence.

I will speak about the Laws that related to NSW first..Firstly a car park is a 'public place when open to the public upon consideration ie: payment or granted by the owner.

    Are parking fees for large cars about to skyrocket? You won't believe the reason why

    Rickcb63....great comment, it would appear that we will soon be heading for other 'nanny-state' ideas created by a minority group who have nothing else to do but to find fault with something or just want to appear that they are doing something as they hold 'an office position in some...

    Woman dead for 24 minutes shares shocking experience that challenges sceptics

    I am also sitting on the fence with the greatest question ever... 'Who, what is on the other side of life.'
