Mate see if you can leave it open. Don't pay it out completely. Leave one dollar in the account. Interest on a dollar is easy

I just read Essanda and shivered. One of the worst finance companies to get wrapped up in. Seek legal advice.. *becareful if you leave it open..

Stupid me, I clicked on here ready to share my thoughts on the metric versus imperial debate and I find transsexual beauty queen talk and excerpts from father Ted....I like it, just not what I was expecting...

Not so much a rant but a WTF...Why do people undertake jobs they have no idea how to do... :?

Bought a pre-loved ride-on mower. Described as, among other things, as 'needing new tyres' and when I picked it up the lady says her old man tried to fix the tyres but they still leaked, hence the need to replace. :roll:

Had a look over and WTF tubeless tyre plugs in tubed tyres and not only that they are the ones that you put in from oustide. No wonder they still leaked, the fuckin tubes have not had the punctures repaired and not only that, the excess 'plugs' on the inside of the tyres had worn holes in the tubes... :shock:

Oh well their loss my gain I suppose. Will put a couple of new tubes in and get some mushroom type plugs to fill the holes in the tyres... 8)

No good greenblood, I'm a fridgy so I know a fair few people who are affected too. The whole industry is hurting I'm already having unpaid days off as we have bugger all work.
It's difficult because I know for a fact that D&E had a lot of work on their books but my understanding is they won the work under cost price. What's the point business sense is non existing

Good luck with that one Joe - I am sure you will find something soon enough - that collapse is also hurting a heap of tradies down here as well....


Here is my rant :

Some cocksmoking ute-driving retard down in Nowra, tailgated one of our cR boys through the main street on the weekend - blasting his horn, flashing headlights etc as they travelled down the main st (limit 50kmh) - while our boy was riding shotgun for a L-plater on the ride, who was directly in front of him.

The fuckstick in the ute pulled next to our boy - and the passenger opened the door a couple of times, slamming it into the bike. Old mate lost control and has gone down - broken collarbone, knee damage etc. In hospital as I type !!! :x :x :x :x :x

Can ya fuckin believe this shit ??? Coppers were called, plenty of eyewitnesses - even the driver !! Because after the passenger has knocked old mate off his bike - the ute stopped, driver jumped out - and the 2 remaining passengers took a shit and drove off !!! Leaving the driver to cop the blame. Apparently the local coppers are all over this - but still , its pretty fucked.

:?
