SRman Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 No, he's given it up! So he's a bon fide Aussie, able to eat a meat pie, a Vegemite sandwich etc... I don't recall giving you a Aussie meat pie with a magma temperature filling... We can save that delight for Ivan's next visit, eh Doug? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Barry O Posted February 25, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 25, 2018 Give me proper UK Marmite over that weak Vegamite stuff any day. Biggest problem I have is getting all of the Tommie ketchup out of the little click and fold packs... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huw Parkinsons youtube channel is my go-to place when wanting a quick recap of Australias parliamentarians and their jolly antics that we pay for. And one for the Brits....

PatB Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Mr Corman does have the advantage that you can reboot him in safe mode (still allows ribbon cutting and baby kissing but blocks access to the policy implementation menu) by sticking a pencil in his ear. On the subject of dodgy wildlife, I was at a market the other night when a lady customer picked up one of our mugs for a closer look and appeared somewhat surprised to find this little fellow (or fellowess) sitting in the bottom of it. Had to give her $5 off as a dangerous creepy-crawly discount . 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatB Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I recommend not delving too deeply into the planter tub on the corner of Beaufort St and Mary St in North Perth, 'cos that's where I released the little blighter into the wild . Plenty of opportunity there for an enterprising scorpion I reckon. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously they don't value their well paid jobs On the other hand, there was an article the other day, about some cleaners in country NSW, who had been made redundant, without any redundancy pay at all. They were directed to a link on the former employers web site for alternative employment - in New Zealand! Perhaps they should go for election as an MP there? 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might go some way to redressing the balance of all the Kiwi's now working / residing in Oz. Although if they do emigrate to NZ they'll have to turn the lights back on when they get there.

The number of authority figures earning tens of thousands while "stood down" during lengthy investigations into misconduct is beyond comprehension. https://thewest.com.au/politics/federal-politics/border-force-boss-roman-quaedvlieg-paid-150000-while-under-investigation-for-misconduct-ng-b88756401z They simply do as they please, their morals and conscience are in matching burlap sacks at the bottom of a fast-moving stream.

RMweb Premium Barry O Posted March 1, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 1, 2018 Strangely enough seems like pahia is being taken over by visitors from Oz. Some arrived on a floating block of flats and are now on their way back to Sydney. (Sun princess) No snakes or other venomous beasties were allowed to land..
