    Gas glass cooktop smashed in IP!

    The pictures show a gas cooktop perp, not ceramic. I wonder could they have left the gas on and it just got really really hot and shattered, or maybe something boiled over? If someone had taken a hammer to it wouldn't the gas hobs themselves be smashed up?

    A Revisit of Sash's May 2010 Property Forecast

    Sounds like you have been pretty spot on Sash. Seems like the market has certainly cooled in NSW. Lots more properties listed. I am doing as you have done - taking this time to consolidate. And going to take a bit of a well earned holiday!!

    VIC - Ambos in crisis

    Sounds like the hospital emergency depts can't cope with the number of patients and I'm guessing that the problem exists mostly in Melbourne? Maybe they need to build some 24/7 medical centres next to each hospital __________________ I work in an ED in Newcastle. They have done just...

    Spelling on Forums

    The correct spelling of "dislexia" is dyslexia. Not sure whether your problem is laziness, unfamiliarity with english or maybe you were just hoping someone would notice and bite.:D

    I hate the home we bought - what now??

    Stevie, I agree with Weg. Either move (renting your place out and renting yourselves probably what I would do if the lifestyle aspect is so important to you) or do something to the place to make it more what you like. Probably plenty of people here have had to put up with places they didn't...

    Is anybody remotely interested in the Comm Games?

    I love the commonwealth games. Great chance to watch the lesser known and covered sports. Also love the Olympics, but its kinda nice not to have the yanks there. Nice to see the little countries who don't have large amounts of cash to spend on their athletes get out and have a go.

    Slow Combustion Wood Heater?

    Was thinking about a gas fireplace, flued for my new (old!) PPOR - as its been freezing in Newcastle of late! Do people think a wood heater is more or less efficient in delivering heat? What about cost to run cos wood seems pretty pricy. How much wood would (ha ha sorry that just sounds funny)...

    Anyone flown with Air Asia?

    I went to KL with Air Asia last yr. Crap food, crap seats but cheap price. Agree you get what you pay for . Prefer Singapore airlines or Malaysian to Asia, but hey you cant fault the Air Asia price!!

    ripped off for roadworthy

    One wonders what would have happened if you were in an accident with the rusted chassis and bald tyres. I'm pleased you were not and didn't take out innocent people with your death trap on wheels. Not so sure you should be bragging about that sort of behaviour.
