As ANZ is being fined, I'm tipping they will increase their fees to recoup the cost of the fine

They do this in SA too, and not just in country areas. If 2 vehicles collide head on the damage is equivalent to double the speed according to safety experts. When vehicles speed past you sometimes you feel like you are walking.

I know some parents who had a massive meeting at one school and asked the principal if he wanted to raise their children. He "back pedalled in a hurry". They were also given very detailed graphic sex education at a very young age without parental approval. That resulted in a storm. The parents...

I agree. In the 1980s kids in their very first term at school were taught that they have rights. 1 thing was that if they didn't want to do what a parent asked them to do they didn't have to. Some kids are smart and decide parents are adults - so are teachers. Imagine what is happening in...

Exactly ! What toxins are made to manufacture these wet cell batteries and what fluid are they filled with. Ordinary Batteries manufactured for cars have a type of acid in the initial fluid in them. How are the old batteries going to be disposed of safely? They eventually "die"

What does he need money for, especially that much?? I'd be interested to know what he is going to spend it on. However he would still have to pay Govt & Local Govt taxes etc.

I know of some motorsport venues that use a lot of old tyres. They join them together and use some stacks side - by-side in rows as safety barriers.

True, what has happened to Parental control these days?

I know a supermarket in Adelaide that had kids' trolleys and they were stolen....until there was one left and only regular trusted customers were allowed to use. It was hidden out in the storage area and you had to ask for it. They have always been expensive to buy - or they were then

If the battery in the new style "key" goes flat, what then?? How many individual signals are there? I know of 2 cases in my area that people have the same signals etc on their remote control garage / carport doors. One house their car was broken into twice. Another time visitors spotted one of...

Interesting - are they at legal height?? In SA number plates have to be within specific heights off the road. Is that not a distraction?? You're not allowed to have a small Xmas decoration such as tinsel on your bumper bar. You can be ordered to take it off immediately - if you are unlucky to...

They need to police it more in SA. We had a collapsed cardboard box "fly" out of an open truck onto our windscreen and we had to brake because we couldn't see at all. We were lucky we weren't rear - ended. Nobody would slow down for me to dispose of the cardboard in a safe way either. We think...

I also remember when Councillors were volunteers. Only issue for some was if they had to attend many functions they got no fuel allowance which was difficult for some who were retired people with very little income. In our area maybe they should spend some of the money on improving roads...

Councils in SA move their collection days by one day which means they then work on the Saturday. Our rubbish collections are done by private contractors.

Some supermarkets in Adelaide are /were doing it too. People don't think about re-using them when shopping. I know a family that use them to put rubbish in when travelling rather than putting their rubbish in a bin loose and it blowing everywhere. They also use them in their caravan. Before bags...

In some country towns you have to have a PO box which you have to pay for. A general store you have to go when they are open. Some are only open part of the day

I wonder if their goods could be delivered by a transport company and still be worth the cost in some country areas

Why not try to conceal the tattoo with cosmetics

Items listed as special buys some shops don't get many in so they run out quickly. You can be at a store at opening time the first day and miss out
