Review: ‘Containers For Cash’ Gold Coast, Australia

Ya know the feeling when you couldn’t be bothered working 30 minute for a quick $50 repair job, yet somehow ya have the energy to run around the yard like a clown looking for old cans and bottles to make 10c each from? Maybe not. Ow anyway, it was a good excuse to go for a drive and see how the bush fire smoke is going. Darn Ashmore was real smokey and I couldn’t see the Gold Coast Hinterland. Here’s my second trip to the Ashmore ‘Containers For Cash’. There’s…

Fire bans on the Gold Coast, Sydney close to fire, while ADF use live rounds that cause fires.

Fell off the the chair today reading about the Canungra Army Base. In these extreme fire danger conditions that seen Binna Burra Lodge go up in flames two months ago, ADF just admitted using live weapons rounds that caused recent a fire. Residents who almost lost their homes in the Gold Coast hinterland bushfires have expressed anger over reports the blaze may have started during army live firing exercises at neighbouring Kokoda Barracks. ABC Who are they practicing killing? They should be out helping transport farmers feed and water and…

Invasion of the Mozzies – Gold Coast

Fricking mozzies around the Gold Coast the last two weeks after the rain are driving me bonkers.

What I need to do is, find the prick in this video running ‘The Park’, and take him out for creating so many bloody mosquitoes.

tate's delusion

I remember voting for a local Mayor that pre-election promised he’d sack the non-elected CEO (ex-Victorian “demon” AFL player) of the CORPORATION trading under the CORPORATE name “GOLD COAST CITY COUNCIL” Seems like a life time ago, yet the same Mayor Tate is still in … as is the same CEO Dickson. While free-loading in the kitchen (shed was out of coffee and Jesus Juice) last night, Mum read a headline off the net about Tate wanting to bury folks in the Broadwater. WTF? I had to look that up…

Singapore’s failed Australian invasion

obike invasion

It’s rare I venture into Surfers Paradise and surrounding coastal suburbs now days … and or turn the TV on and keep up with local whatever goings on. Last Mothers Day (13 May) the mother and I drove the coastline road from Southport to Tweed Heads. From the Southport end, I started noticing unattended orange bikes here and there, parked on footpaths. The closer we got to Surfers, the more we passed. I thought the government must have bought them for public use during the recent Commonwealth Games … but…
