    Novak Djokovic ordered to leave Australia after visa mishap, Serbian president calls for the entry of the athlete into the country

    Hi Liz, You are right there. Money does talk. Novak Djokovic is a major 'draw card', being number one in the world of tennis. If he wins his appeal, just imagine how many people (supporters) will pay for the tickets to see him perform, he is a tennis player first but also a showman. Then...

    Novak Djokovic ordered to leave Australia after visa mishap, Serbian president calls for the entry of the athlete into the country

    Hi, Yes I do agree with you, he should not play. The matter should be finalised by the courts first and then the appropriate action taken accordingly (should he play or return to Serbia). But to play whilst the outcome of his appeal has not been finalised is nonsensical.

    Novak Djokovic ordered to leave Australia after visa mishap, Serbian president calls for the entry of the athlete into the country

    Hi Chris, Here is where the confusion lies. Greg Hunt, the Health Minister said last year that 'no vax, no entry' and the diagnosis to covid-19 within the 6 months of entry to Australia "did not apply". (my emphasis). Djokovic contracted the virus within the 6 months prior to entry to...

    Novak Djokovic ordered to leave Australia after visa mishap, Serbian president calls for the entry of the athlete into the country

    I was listening to the radio and the American news is saying that the Australian government is harassing Novak Djokovic. I hold the opinion that America should butt out of Australian politics and respect our sovereignty. On Instagram, Serbia's President Aleksandar Vučić vowed to "fight" for...

    What's something you'd find in an old car that most young people wouldn't recognise today?

    I owned an old Vanguard with the crank handle to start it in the morning. It had a charger for recharging the battery during the day but the battery did not have enough charge to start the motor in the morning. The car had quarter windows on all the doors (front and back) and roller blinds ond...

    New study reveals that Australia was the world’s drunkest country in 2020

    As we head towards the end of the year, office get-togethers, Christmas lunches and New Year's parties are upon us. It seems like a prime opportunity for young people to be drinking the night away. But something unexpected has happened since the start of this century. Young people in Australia...

    Covid Treatment

    Covid Treatment I was working in the garden, pulling out weeds and ended up pulling my back as well. Oh, I felt crook. I went inside and told my wife and she got me to lay on my tummy on the bed. She poured some oil on my back and massaged my back. "Oh," I sighed, " that feels good" "Yes," she...

    Christmas Tree

    Christmas Tree I went and got a Christmas tree and came home. My neighbour leaned over the fence and asked, "are you putting that up yerself?" To which I replied, "no, I was thinking the family room."

    Compare the Pair - accident

    I am certainly glad that I changed providers. I was paying $0.45 per kilowatt of electricity when the scheduled fee (for S.A.) is $0.37 /38. (Insert appropiate swear words here). And, I had been paying that inflated price for about 12 to 24 months!!! 🤬

    Compare the Pair - accident

    Also eh, I have to remain a senior for the duration of the contract. (??) Bugger. That means that I'm not permitted to get younger and I 'll have t o act my age. Bugger. Does that mean that I can't play with my grandchildren?? (My daughter often calls me a big kid).

    Compare the Pair - accident

    'Ken oath!! 👍👍 I enquired about the discrepancy further and the 'seniors ' offer is opened to anyone - just have to ask - which is interesting. I pressed them as to why it was not mentioned when using my postcode and was told that it is a fault of the website. Hmmm. (Yeah right).
