    Got home from dinner with friends to find out my Dad had spoken to my younger sister about his plans for this year which consists of my sisters and I getting a mortgage so the house can be paid off and he can gallivant off overseas whenever he likes.

    I work part-time pay half the utilities and rates when these bills should be split into thirds. I have no savings to speak of. My older sister runs her own business and has her own family now and my younger sister is an executive assistant but that doesn't mean she's a millionaire.

    I have no problem kicking in money from time to time but I'm not getting a mortgage so he can seek religious enlightenment.

    That doesn't sound entirely legal. surely there are limits to the amount of industiral noise even a farm can produce.

    I just want a Gen Legends Bumblebee!

    Actually I'm getting tired of having to buy my TFs from America
    when you do your initial search, down the left hand column of refinement options there is a button for "Amazon Global Eligable" pick that. Anything left in the search list will ship to Australia.

    You'd be surprised. I've got mates that live in the area and near farms that have different crops that mature in the winter. Some of these farms have massive wind turbines which are designed to keep blowing across the crops to stop frost settling and damaging the plants. They make a hell of a noise and due to when frosts begin to settle they run them at night. My friends have made complaints but have been told by the council that 'It's a farming area and allowable'.

    Odd, all this bizzo about noise and what not. Man people can be selfish. Sue the guy for mental stress, they make you jump every 3-5 minutes.

    Mt vent:
    Went to get my car serviced. Dude did a good job and was great price too. After that I had a really rough ride...

    Turns out when the car was lifted off the ground to rotate the tyres, it caused the shock absorber on the front right to sieze up. Sigh. They change shockies in pairs. Shockies for my car cost $160 each (cheapest I've been able to find...)

    I just hope that the guy who will be fixing the CV joints will be able to slap on the shockies as well at the same time... Sigh...

    My wife came home from work today and some idiots went to her school and the next one up the road (5 minutes away) last night and stole ALL the copper water piping out of the ground between the buildings. So 2 schools today have no water and won't for a few days at least. Plumbers will need to trench all the routes and rerun everything. Bloody low lives

    Now the school has to walk all the students down the road to the local surf club twice a day to use the toilets and they have no running water.

    Ah the lowlifes of society. Isn't it great that these people are around?

    Talking about lowlifes, my brother told me he was sitting out the front of his house when a few of said "humans" (I use the term loosely) decided to check the door handles on my parent's car to see if it was unlocked. When he called out to them they just continued walking down the street. My brother overheard them say "Damn, I didn't even see him there"

    Yes, sadly there is an ever growing number of utter scumbags roaming the Illawarra, the PsOS should've been drowned at birth.
