I parked on a main road, outside a police station. I noted that "CLEARWAY" rules started at 4:00 PM. I returned to the car just before 3:50 PM and found a Parking Infringement notice on the windscreen It said that I was parked there at 4:05 PM. I went straight into the police station and showed...

Way back when the Earth was still flat, I had a delegation to approve BUT NOT REFUSE certain APS entitlements, I.E. I could say YES but not NO. NO had to be approved upstairs. That approach needs to be followed NOW where the S**T K*****s can say YES but not NO. Then, and only then will...

Temu advertise that they have car horns that can produce 600dB. Given that the eruption of Krakatoa was recorded at 190 dB and that the dB scale is logarithmic, this would be roughly the sound of the Moon hitting the Earth. Complaints to Temu do not even merit a reply from them. AVOID>

It is obviously time to reverse and or repeal the disastrous decision that our British cousins made and celebrate with the London to Brighton Car Run. Bring back the red flags ASAP. Brian

When I still had my (now surrendered) Motorcycle Licence, I went to park in a legitimate spot but there was a "Brown Bomber" with his foot on the bumper of the car behind, writing. I said to him "Does that meter belong to the spot where I have just put my Motor Bike?" I could not understand his...

Many years ago, I parked outside a Police Station (Fortitude Valley" QLD). I noted that it was a Clearway from 4:00 PM. I returned to the car at 3:55 PM and found that I had been booked for parking in a Clearway at 4:10 PM. I walked straight into the station and pointed out he discrepancy. The...

Almost 3 years ago, when these electric pests were not as common as now, I moved off after a red light had turned green. I had moved half a car length (IE just across the 'STOP' line, when a scooter came from my left and the rider put his hand on the bonnet of my car as he sped past. Two points...

Hi UNIT1000. Is not Softly Softly the way you catchee monkey, not especially fish?

Over 40 years ago, my wife inherited about enough to buy a medium sized car. She asked me what to do with it and my answer was "your money, your choice". She chose to pay a large slab off our second mortgage. That actually changed our financial situation immensely. Follow your heart. Possibly...

Try the Monaro Highway. 100 there means that you are constantly monstered both by trucks and skiers. There is an "Average Speed" setup north from Cooma and often a camera van just inside the ACT border. More surveillance is needed.

My speedo and my GPS do not agree. The GPS generally shows about 3 to 5 KMPH lower than the speedo. My speedo also shows higher for a few Ks after slowing down, EG from 100 on a highway to 50 at the town edge but the speedo says 56 against the GPS 48 or 49. Drpping to (GPS) 45 and then speeding...

Recently, when I turned my computer on, I got a message that I had downloaded a TROJAN and I had to ring Microsoft on a particular mobile number to get it removed. Also the message came from somewhere with a country code I could not identify. I could not get my anti-virus software to open, and...

Is it not funny that the partner who snores is always the first to fall asleep?

I get the S###s when I see an old person sitting in the drivers seat of a car in a 'disabled spot', disabled card displayed and see a sprightly younger person exit from the car and run to the store. Some minutes, the young person returns. Legally, this is OK but ethically, the driver is a...

Waste of money, but then I am OLD and BALD.

The Minister's dog is fearful dog

The minister's cat is a sneaky cat

I think that there is another side to this. Some people used to put household rubbish into my son's industrial waste and recycling bins. Now he has to pay a premium to get these bins cleared at a time when his factory is operational. This makes it theft, to my mind.
