Alright cods, no need to get personal, I'm not as young as I used to be.....ha ha only joking.

We are a bit on the slow side up north, but what's Victoria's excuse?

Anyway, the roads that were washed away and potholed in the flood have been fixed in my town.......threw a shovel load of road surface mix in and whammo! all better........until it rains again and gets washed away. Not just slow but slack.

Who's tears were the more convincing cods, Anna's or Julia's? I'm sure I saw something on Q&A about Julia being a bit on the hard side and what do you know, the very next day she gets all soft and weepy, it was far too staged for my liking.  They really do take us for fools.





yes thats what I dislike them thinking we can be sucked in with all this..

"I am one of you..I am suffering too" doesnt wash.

thats not what we want is it?..I can just see Churchill sobbing!!!.

we need tough we need honest we need someone who has a clue where we are going.

as you say a shovel full of surface mix does not fix anything..it just covers it up, and pulls the wool over peoples eyes. a few tarps appearing as well I am sure.

it will take time we all know that.. but once they put a shovel full of mix in or cover something with a tarp they then tend to move off and leave you to wonder whats next for months even years at a time..

we dont seem to have a co-ordinated response to devastation that I think we should have.. too many chiefs and empire builders as a rule.all treading on each others toes.

have also noticed pansi.. that talk of the devastation has gone off the radar and its now all about the levy.... not even the way the levy will be spent..

have those that lost everything got somewhere to live or whats happening to them??I am almost sure a bit of depression is started to sink in.. alright for the media to move on, but not so easy for the likes of those that are dependent now on others for even the clothes on their backs..

All trying to score political points, or looking for little slip-ups to knock each other off their perch. It's all one big inconvenience after another to them and the bottom line is coming out at the other end with a surplus. They need to take care of the country and its people first and if they end up with a surplus or a deficit.....so be it.

I wonder how all the people with mortgages who didnt insure their homes or businesses are going to go with their banks?
I havent had any debt for a very long time but as far as I know it is part of the contract you sign with your financier that you must have insurance to protect their investment.
These people have broken their contracts and we may find banks selling off whats left of these assetts and then suing these people for whats left of the debt.
I still cant believe so many people did not insure their homes and businesses.

..........................................................

I always had to send a copy of the insurance receipt to the finance company. Surely all lenders would require this.
