You won't get any Politician going after any of the big corporations the reason is: when the Politician retires, looses his seat these same corporations jump in and offer them a position in the company because of their 'contacts within the government etc.' How many people knew that Gladys is in...

Hart and Boyce had their own high charting hit in the 60's with 'I wonder what she is doing tonight'..As for the Monkees, I remember Mickey Dolenz who played 'Corky', in the half hour show 'Circus Boy', he appeared in the opening of the show riding his 'pet' eleplant as they arrived in the...

Great idea 'glennkidd', it may pose a further problem ie: it would probably be declared a 'sacred site', or one of the local tribes would want you to pay for a permit, which would be an on-going cost indefinately, and the area could be 'shut down' at any time. The biggest problem in this...

Anyone out there who still believes in anything Woolies, Coles, Qantas, Federal/State Gov., Politicians, big businesses say....... 'I do ???'... glad I can type this my tongue is glued to the inside of my cheek so my speaking ability is not so good...lol. Have a good day everyone and have a...

Stories like this make me furious, they are committing a fraud and the relevant Authority should be taking out 'charges' against them, with substantial fines being handed out, with compensation to the victims. Their company names de-registered forever with the owners placed on a registry. A...

I think someone is having a go at us customers. Albo is stopping the export of live sheep to the Middle East, a $260m a year income for Aust. Yes, and it is being kept very quiet, it appears that the 'vegan/animal rights/greens' boffins have got their way. With this shift in the market and the...

When I eat out, no matter where, I expect a few basic things, what I ordered is what I get the way I ordered it, a friendly smile and manners from the staff, not some person who just grunts, stands there as if they are bored or doing me a favour, timely arrival of the food, well prepared and...

I had a close mate who worked at Channel 7 for many years, Skase took over the Channel and did the same thing ie: holding back super payments the whole time he was there. When it all came to light, Skase emptied the Bank Accounts, sold off assets and he and his ' mattress testing wife', fled the...

Well, with Albo stopping the live export of lamb to the Middle East, I am waiting to see a 'flood of lamb products' onto the Aust. market at a cheap price. Not on what I saw in the butchers last week, the lamb chops were too expensive to eat, so I bought one and had it framed so I can look at...

I herd that a bloke in NZ had the word 'WOOL' tattood on his male organ, when asked why, he explained that when he got excited it spelled out where he was born.... in WOOLOOMOOLOO.. Have a laugh folks, don't complain, just put a smile on your face at a joke..... cheers.

I was directly effected by the closure of the Oceania Glass company in Melbourne. I own a classic car and had to have a windscreen replaced. Having had it replaced a few years ago my windscreen came from and Melbourne and was an excellent fit. My windscreen was struck by a stone a few months...

What a great show, the cast consisted on no more than about 4/5 actors, never all at the same time, with the very occasional 'celebrity appearance'. I think the only time I saw more than that was when 'mother and son(Gary Mc.) went to a funeral, they stopped at a roadside vegie stall and she...

I had a recipe for cooking bush turkey and carp, it was told to me by an old bushy mate of mine.... step one, boil a large pot of water, then add 1 standard size brick and the meat of choice ie: turkey or carp, boil constantly until the brick softens, throw the turkey or carp away and eat the...

I would agree that new vehicles should be fitted with 'a recording device front/ rear or panoramic capabilities' to assist in taking/reducing the sometimes outlandish explanations I have had from drivers when they tried to explain what happened. A lot of accidents come down to 'I said/he said'...

Could not agree more Veggiepatch: during my 39yrs in 'the job' I spent a lot of time pulling critically injured and deceased persons from vehicles and road trauma mainly due to some self centred moron who wanted to do something illegal just because it was, in his attitude 'all about me me me'...
