Jayco is not being sued because of their claims to be rugged off-Road, but because they advertise that there caravans are but immediately void your warranty if you take those vehicles anywhere that is not a recognised road.

Amazing how it's mainly the cheap tobacco shops that get torched.

There's a cheap tobacconist in Maclean, I walked past(9am) it the other day, in the arcade on my way to the hardware store, there where kids, aged about 12/16 hanging around put the front.
The bloke who opened up the doors looked like a young Osama bin Laden.
He ushered them in, shut the doors.

I find it amusing that this 'Business' changes location regularly, depending on what premises are available.

We've lost control of or boarders.

Only one in 50, shipping containers are checked.

Sad to say, Trump has zero credibility as a world leader.

Saw a terrific riposte to Trump leaving the G7 Meeting early.
Commentator said he left because he didn't understand a thing they were saying.

Let's just forget it was Trump and that he is President atm, BTW I'm not a fan of him.
American's past 5 presidents, were never going to allow Iran to have Nuclear weapons.
Even want tobe President's, have pushed for this.

& all this will, of course, have the effect of slowing down the ones who break the rules & cause the problems

Yeah, right

BiL only left there on Tuesday, & was going crook about the grog rules - there is no cask wine at all, with limits of 1 bottle of spirits, 1 ctn of beer & 2 bottles of wine, & all expensive. So if you're visiting, stock up in Geraldton!

Isn't life strange.
Alcohol now determines where we can visit.
