I don't see how rents can go up just because rates go up, not in country areas anyway. Wouldn't we have to see wages go up first. I havn't seen rents rise in 2 years on the mid north coast. I would imagine out west in drought areas it will be longer. Robo

In NSW air cons have to be off by 10.00pm and the compressor is supposed to be facing towards open space like lawn or garden area. I know this as our neighbour complained as it was facing towards their bedroom, council inspector came out and had a look and i just said i will move it, the air con...

Spot on mate, if you are a responsible parent why else would you smack them anyway. Do they really think banning smacking will stop it? Robo

The scary thing is that it does get passed on from one generation to the next. The good news is its men like you guys and i that can reconize it and stop it going any further with our boys. Getting back to smacking i was in a supermarket yesterday and this couple with 3 dirty little rug rats...

Hey Grubar30, I think i lived in your house, though dad took it out more on mum than me and my brother, we just used to try and stop him from hurting her, can still remember my brother doing karate on him on the back verandah lol. The amazing thing when he was my age now 42 or...

We smack our kids only after we cool down and they have been sent somewhere to think about what they have done, believe me the thought of the smack is worse than the smack itself.

Wow, we built our previous PPOR starting end of 02 in the middle of the east coast boom and even then it still took only 6mths. The builder who built our new PPOR has just put off 2 supervisors and the carpenter told me he doesn't have another house to start for 3 weeks. It must be crazy over...

You might be right Perky, what is it with these one eyed Melbourne AFL supporters. i just had a guy from Telstra on the phone he said his family follow Collingwood like a religion. I said why don't you go to a Storm game, he said their not very good are they, i said mate their on top by 2...

I wouldn't own any property if i didn't have the ability to earn more if needed. What will happen when rates go up to 10% and they will, if you only have a few dollars a week left over now what then? There must be a lot of very nervous home owners and investors that work for Bosses now with the...
