It's Brisbane. You need heating for maybe 45 days a year (I've used the heating twice this year). If heating's free then maybe 90 days a year. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There is no gas in almost all BNE suburbs, therefore no central...

People watch too much American TV, where a tree has legal personality and a snide comment is grounds for a billion dollar settlement.

Have fun. Unless you've got 120% evidence I doubt you will win. Suing people for small amounts of money is rarely financially rewarding - it does make you feel good though. Edit - sarcasm?

http://iview.abc.net.au/programs/killing-season/NC1584H001S00#playing I hope that libs would have taken similar action.

Maybe. I'm just going on what I read in the courier fail - he had a load of dosh in family trusts.

We await with stinky breath!

Skater for foreign affairs minister! Such diplomacy.

Back in my Uni house sharing days I shared a house (sort of, I had the GF, so all we shared was the laundry) with a kind of stinky. I explained that the bit at the top was where you put fabric softener, not laundry powder - after a few times I gave up trying to tell a grown man how to use a...

Like a lot of people he used trusts to keep money away from creditors. Hidden in plain sight.

No pics! My cat won't eat any meat. No tinned cat food, no fresh chicken, lamb, beef etc (cooked or un cooked). She does like prawns and comes running if I mention the P word; only cooked though. That's just weird for a cat! She'll only eat dry biscuits. At a couple of bucks a week for...

Yep, and if finances aren't spoken about then appearances will determine perception of wealth. When I turn up to the school reunion in an average car and say I don't work then the perception will be I'm poor and maybe a dole bludger. I could be rich, lead a modest lifestyle and are humble...

Worth watching?

I'd suggest it would be cheaper to get a cab to the post office once a day, than buy a car to do so. But that won't get you max tax deductions - I suggest buying a car at no less than $300k.

If that's net assets at your age I'd describe you as well off, doing well for yourself or similar, but not rich or loaded.

If you want a quick, cheap, and just a tad nasty lunch in between inspections the Asian grocer in the small complex next to the Runcorn tavern on Gowan rd is good. Around $6 for your choice of 'meat' (like peeking duck, pork chop etc), rice, some greens etc for one. Not somewhere you'd want to...

If you haven't been, check out Tobaki Korean BBQ on Gowan road. It's the usual cook at the table BBQ but it's a buffet for 'ingredients'. Oishii Sushi place on mains rd (technically pinelands rd I think) is the best sushi in Brisbane. Just past Pinelands plaza heading out of the city, next...

Sunnybank is more China town than the valley and has been for a couple of decades. Edit - Cmac beat me to it. I've noticed that in the last 10(?) years Sunnybank et al has seen a small influx of Indian, Muslim and east African's.

WTF? Not in practice! Offer? What offer? There was no offer.

Answer a question with a question - it confuses. Sir Joh famously answered a journo Why do you always answer a question with a question? What's wrong with that?

You haven't met me! I wouldn't lease a property to myself.
