Surely Moderators are encouraged to have opinions also?
It would be sad if Moderators weren’t able to hold differing perspectives. Indeed, their posts wouldn’t be worth reading if they slavishly held to one perspective, and if they disagreed about some matter, they felt compelled to be silent because they had been given a book.
Rugby, call me gauche, but i thought one would just sip politely on the proffered wines, and then gently slip down to the cellar, lay down under the wine kegs, open one’s mouth, and turn the tap on.

No different I suppose to a number of wineries in various regions of Australia. They charge $5 for tastings to weed out the people who have no intention of purchasing a bottle of wine from their cellardoor.

Elvis reunion- lucky ducks. Nothing fun happens in sydney []
I wonder if victor ollis saw them as a potential market- a bunch of Elvis impersonators living in a town- now THAT would be funny they’d all walk around singing “in the ghetto” and living in parkes- hehe.
And the rest of the town would be walking around singing “suspicious minds”…[Read more]
I reckon I could have had an easier time selling my last IP if I raffled it. I just say I am giving away a “free apartment” at a $20 application fee. Then i get to decide who is the most worthy []
Could 10,000 Australians apply for this most generous offer? I mean, I would have to be such an amazing person to offer such a…[Read more]
Hellfire is a fetish/bdsm club. People go there, wear fetish gear- latex, leather, pvc, corsets- whatever. Fetish gear is no big deal these days- watch Rage or a music show, and most of the bands will be wearing something black and shiny wearing black at the club- if people have no fetish gear- is mandatory. You wouldn’t want to stick out…[Read more]
It was the same situation for the people who advertised to give away 10 free blocks of land in a rural community (as shown on ACA or whatever). To apply, you had to send $20 to be considered…
Now how many people would like to get some free land? Heaps! how many people might apply? 500? that’s $10,000! how much would ten blocks of rural land…[Read more]
“out done by some interstate investor they hadn’t heard of b4, a new one, fancy that. I wonder where they got there info from, stupid ol me ………LOL out done by 2 k on each place”
I didn’t mean to pick on Broken Hill- many’s the time I have trawled through every house in BH on the net. I think it looks like a great place- a bit hot though [:X] (That smiley is me looking sunburnt).
I used BH as an example- it does seem, as Rugby said- that really the only pozz properties now exist in mining towns. so it’s hardly…[Read more]
Bears, I think the other thing is, people need to take their time making decisions about RE. None of us buy the first house we see. Everything is an *option*- as it should be- we can’t rush in when we’re spoending large amounts of money- so many decisoins to be made- and so many properties to choose from!
I know you’re a “doer”. But all people on…[Read more]
We need to think about wages, and rents, and *benefits*. Let’s face it- a lot of the tenants of these CF+ hpouses are beneficiaries. Unless the govt puts up benefits (which seldom happens- even after the CPI was 6% after the GST came in, the govt only gave pensioners a lousy $4 extra- grrr).. then you can forget putting up rents substantially.
Well, you know me, Pisces- it sucks being a “bleeding heart”, but what can I tell you
I tend to think we can justify anything. For example, we can justify jobs going offshore- as Testra is about to do- lose 400 australian jobs because they want to pay poorer wages to Indians. For me, it’s hard to justify profits over people.
