Do you remember who it was through?

I just remember they were Asian and could hardly speak a word of English but we're fantastic, they way they moved our massive fridge down a hallway that curves was a work of art.
Just checked my contacts and found a "Pom", might be him lol
Bob from the Reepham (now the Albion) put me into them so if I see him I'll ask.

Cheers, I'll be on to them, it helps that they can fit into smaller gaps aswell I suppose.

Apparently wedgie can too...

For the first time my blinkered eyes saw full on racist Australia in action.

Walking into harbour town, two ladies full clad in a burka were walking five metres in front us with an older male.

First a 60 year old Lady stopped right in front of us after walking past the ladies to tell us how there going to blow up.

Twent metres later we get to the pedestrian to which a young 25 year old male driving his ute in his favourite port power top comes across the road to stop on the opposite side where we are waiting at the crossing to tell them to **** off home etc ect.

Didn't really know what to do other than apologise for their behaviour and say it's not reflective of the whole country but now I'm not so sure

Yeah I had to step in at Woolies once when a feral started to go to town on a middle eastern couple in the checkout line for no apparent reason, makes you wonder what some people are thinking.

It's fairly simple they aren't thinking.....

Disgusting, I'd rather we get rid of scum like that than Muslims.

I would've given those **** the biggest spray

YES! I agree wholeheartedly with this one.

I had an aunty pass on last year, and they played Ed Sheeran's 'The A Team' at the funeral. The song is about a crack-addicted prostitute...

This post is from 2013, but it's so relevant. The wedding we went to had this song playing while the bride walked down the either. Mrs HH3 couldn't believe it.

The dozy girl at Ned Kelly bakery.
My order came to $13.20 so I give her $50.20 to help make life easier but still get back the change as if it was only a $50.
Please, what is the world coming too!
Never again. Banned

Best kranskys in the West.

Banned!

I hate when people give me extra change to "make it easier".

It's way easier to just deduct the price from a $50.

You're banned!

I reckon it's way easier to give them the extra 20c or whatever so that the change is a $ figure, but then I did maths at school...

Trying to change mindsets of some people at work! Deadset frustrating and they wonder why we are so far in debt!

People with bad attitudes towards good opportunities is another frustration.

We just got offered to tender for a national, well known company, and the rep in charge of it said straight away "we won't get it".

We probably wont with that attitude. But I floated a pretty easy idea that should work for the 2 year contract.

If you start out negative, you've already lost.

If only I could take accounts for myself.

Listening to this dumb chick at work talk to herself all day every day, flirt with everyone and her annoying fake laugh at the the end of every sentence despite there being no attempted humour by either party.
I've told my partner that she's banned from conversing with her at our work show on Saturday evening.

Backing every ride for a particular jockey but not getting time today and seeing he won on a $62 pop FFS!!
