The Bronze AnzacParticipant
It’s not the little backyarders that are a problem like handypersons or flea markets, car boot sales etc. Paying by cash or receiving by cash should & will continue, at least in the short term. It’s the bigger business operations that need “dobbing in”.

Why not next change the flag to exclude the “Union Jack” next ? Then proceed to become a Republic. We should then still be part of the Commonwealth with just minimal changes.
The Bronze AnzacParticipantBunnings does not & never will “specialize” by product group like specialists SuperCheap Auto & AutoBarn. You cannot find any staff member at Bunnings to assist or give advice when required by a customer. The specialist auto companies will continue to provide this service & expand their businesses like other specialists in plumbing, electrical, tools & gardening etc. If I need advice I don’t go to Bunnings. I go to a specialist company.
The Bronze AnzacParticipantWhilst I consider the one-off payment of $17K is good, it’s simply not good enough & should be $50K for a one-year assistance for house buying, I think a further incentive of up to $100K for 2 years is much better. I also believe that compulsory National Service should be reintroduced for all eligible unemployed & capable persons, especially for those who “claim” they are looking for work but cannot find it.
11 April 2024 at 8:45 am in reply to: How’s your alcohol consumption (and do Gen Z have it right?) #1830619The Bronze AnzacParticipantI’m 79 years young. Several years ago I changed from full-strength beer to mid-strength. Then a few years ago I further changed to light beer. I then further reduced my intake, so I purchased 330ml cans instead of 375ml or bigger cans. Then I decided to reduce my intake from 6 cans per day to 5 & then further to 4 & 3. I found that I improved my general health, fitness & exercise & I lost weight as well. My wife does not drink alcohol. I found our relationship improved during my planned reduction of alcohol. My plan took a while, but I can thoroughly recommend it. It’s a simple & cost-effective plan as well. Cheers.
The Bronze AnzacParticipantNo. Because it didn’t make sense to me. Why withdraw cash, then later buy something with that cash & then that money is re-banked by the store or receiver in their bank ? The only good thing about the exercise was that it was a show by activists against a cashless society.
The Bronze AnzacParticipantIf it is to be a person then that person must not be currently alive.
The Bronze AnzacParticipantIt would be interesting to see a graph showing the declining rate of ordinary letters delivered over the last 10 or more years, as well as the number of P.O. boxes in use.
