Ah Mr Divs more than enough to support an interesting account in book form me thinks.
Ah Mr Divs more than enough to support an interesting account in book form me thinks.the GP doesn't trust me with a wheelchair ( or a mobility scooter ) my issue is i can go from 1 to _ with very little warning ( or an abundance of alcohol ) when during the hotel saga i sometimes did that in just four steps luckily they had robust ( but padded ) carpet most places although i did brush the furniture twice .
when residing in the bush i did twist/sprain both ankles ankles at once about 500 yards from home and carrying the weekly shopping
after a brief ( involuntary ) lie-down i took a deep breath and reasoned leaving the shopping to come back tomorrow was the inferior option ( when all the damage cooled down walking would be much more uncomfortable and the extra 1000 yards for the round trip)
but the upside was i had an extra opportunity to test out my lineament making and strapping skills ( which i used for about two weeks )
PS i usually try to give myself an emergency exit with bulls and horses ( doesn't take much to spook them back at you )
Mr Divs this being at your expense I am thoroughly enjoying this sagaof what happened in your life to date. Top shelf stuff.the GP doesn't trust me with a wheelchair ( or a mobility scooter ) my issue is i can go from 1 to _ with very little warning ( or an abundance of alcohol ) when during the hotel saga i sometimes did that in just four steps luckily they had robust ( but padded ) carpet most places although i did brush the furniture twice .

Interesting idea @SirRumpole - certainly 'food for thought'. Wondering whether this might inspire further 'fuel for the fire' for property prices should an idea such as this be passed, leading to further inflationary pressure though? All a balancing act?Alan Kohler's solution to the rental crisis.
Answer to rental crisis is not easy, but necessary
If Anthony Albanese was serious about dealing with the 2023 rental crisis, he would resuscitate Kevin Rudd’s NRAS.thenewdaily.com.au
Sadly not mention of the legislation preventing building on acreages and outer areas, not discussion on the never ending expending "rights" of tenants can bring pets, etc including not paying their rent....covid time in mind.Alan Kohler's solution to the rental crisis.

not any more , for meSadly not mention of the legislation preventing building on acreages and outer areas, not discussion on the never ending expending "rights" of tenants can bring pets, etc including not paying their rent....covid time in mind.
I will never touch a long term rental property with a pole
Oh yeah. Never worked for me...life is too short to be a landlord
For what it is worth..
wasn't bad for while ( considering i inherited the house ) but could sense wave after wave of regulations coming to erode income ( in an era of rising costs and charges )Oh yeah. Never worked for me.
Just completed the installation of connected smoke detectors..they do not have to be wired in..wireless is ok and better across floor, with 10y battery..yes some more of the sxxt making sure you buy your own place only and let the governments be landlords if they wantnot any more , for me
you never know what freak-show legislation will be added in next
am still doubled up in ridicule with the wired in 'smoke detectors ' which assumes the power will be on when a fire breaks out ( as opposed to when you are burning the toast )
absolutely no chance of an electrical short triggering a fire .. is there , not to mention the dedication of many sparkies to their trade ( or not )
LOL wireless might be equally problematic ( interference at critical times ) but i guess time will tell ( at least i get to watch , not worry as a landlord )Just completed the installation of connected smoke detectors..they do not have to be wired in..wireless is ok and better across floor, with 10y battery..yes some more of the sxxt making sure you buy your own place only and let the governments be landlords if they want
Head East Wayne.Been ####ing around this weekend trying to buy a pile of bricks in a target suburb.
Not *really as an investment per se, just wanting a leg in for future (ie our dotage), but investment value not an insignificant factor.
Conclusion - for the moment, stepping the xxxx away. In this particular spot, its farkin insane.
Ongoing discussion... Proximity to wankey cafe culture, or more land and booby traps and machine gun nests at the boundaries.Head East Wayne.
In them thar Hills lies a fortune awaiting to be discovered.
Vacant land that is.
gee , i hope the insurer isn't SUN(corp) they probably haven't got over our 2016 ( to 2019 ) adventureGone from a purchase price of $6m to...........................zero?
The $6 million penthouse that turned into a nightmare
Jenell and Paul Milsted have been forced out of their luxury penthouse in Cronulla because of ongoing water leaks.www.smh.com.au
Wayne I was thinking a bit more East of that area.Ongoing discussion... Proximity to wankey cafe culture, or more land and booby traps and machine gun nests at the boundaries.
The problem with vacant land is then you have to try to find a builder that isn't going to go broke in the next few months and pay 3000 to 4000 dollars per square metre for something that's going to look like crap in 10 years.
Additionally, Satterley looks to be given the go-ahead to shoehorn 30 to 40 thousand more people just off Stoneville road.... Which is going to turn the whole area into a shytfight of epic proportions.
Include me out.
No apologies necessary, I was tossing up about which thread to put it in.Apologies @SirRumpole. I've just realised I have replicated your post in the "Economy at street level" thread.
