They used to call them Cut throat razors. Strop them on a leather belt. Today the same look but with "one use" blades. Nev

 

The old man used the razor belt on us when we were kids.

Brexit is the problem. Like it or not, in the democratic process the people voted to leave. May went to Europe several times to get the best deal possible. Some Government MP's voted against 'The Deal' hoping for better and the opposition to just defy the Government because they can for Political Mileage even though against their constituents wishes. 

Face it, no PM is going to get a better deal, Europe will not give any ground.

Form a committee from the 21 + 1 MP's who crossed, see if they can do any better. 

I'm sure a lot of people thought the same about Churchill when he was first elected.

 There is hope if you consider this very forum: I get stuff here which is unpolluted by Murdoch or anybody else.

 

As for the paper, I am weaning myself off it right now, helped by the last price hike to $1.90.

 

My son thinks reading the paper is a funny old-fashioned thing to do in this age of the internet.

 

I was a paper boy in the 60's, Brisbane Telegraph was 4 cents. Great times , just about everyone gave me a 5c piece. 25% tip. Then they went to 5c.

So much for getting rich quick. 

Maybe not enough people went to church

Good article on ABC by Dr Karl on the electromagnetic spectrum.

When you start the Na's Planey I would go to the bar and hopefully you'd nearly be finished by the time I got back.

Isn't it great to see people get off their arse and show their Government that the people don't like their agenda. Once upon a time Australians used to protest about things that mattered i.e. Apartheid when Sth Africa Rugby toured and the Vietnam War to get the soldiers out, (not the disgusting Hippie movement against the Soldiers themselves). There are still plenty of things to protest about but we are pathetic, easier to tick a box on facebook.

I just heard tody on the ABC radio, that a survey has been done to find the sexiest towns in Australa.I have no idea how you judge a town on its sexiness, but I am sure you will all be pleased to hear that my nearest town is the winner.

 

Gladstone Qld has been judged the sexiest town in Australia. It is a city, not a town but that doesn't matter, because No 2 was Brisbane, then Townsville, Alice Springs, Wagga, Mackay, Newcastle and some others I forget, with Rockhampton being No 10.

 

I really wonder how they can come up with a rating and I also wonder who foots the bill for such a futile outcome.

 

Gladstone is in recession, with just about the lowest house prices in the country, caused by the building boom when the gas facilities were built and the laying off of workers when it all finished, although Townsville is in a similar situation. Maybe that is what makes a place sexy.

 

My personal opinion is that I would not want to live in any of the towns I have named, with the exception of the Alice.

If you mine the Moon you would decrease its mass and maybe increase its orbit

I wonder about battery efficiency. The Hyundai Kona gets over 400km from full charge, I see the Nissan above will get 270ish. So what if you don't use it, do only 50 a day and charge it each night how will the batteries fare. For best condition and longevity of life should you wait till Battery is low before charge.

Maybe they should bring out a cheaper commuter with 100km range for day to day. Most families these days have two breadwinners and if they can afford, 2 cars. A little run around and a family car.

I love voting day, i feel so popular walking in, unfortunately like a ghost walking out

He led the Party and the Nation as a Leader, he made decisions as a Leader. Example Cabinet papers 1988-89: Bob Hawke acted alone in offering asylum to Chinese students

20,000 students and many of their families followed.
