    Yep - keeping his wife in the slot to 3pm so she can make school pick up whilst he signs the salary cheques - perfect

    How does he manage that from his job at the Department of Home Affairs.

    I’ve just taken a look. White shirts on white background. Why? What a awful awful way to represent broadcasters all with their own personalities - dress them all the same and in the same colour. 

    I’m a pretty blue sky approach kind of guy and I don’t find much to moan about but that page is so utterly utterly bad that was feel as though this is all a bad dream. 

    This can’t all be really happening, can it? 

    It looks like some were taken professionally while others were taken by amateurs using camera phones.

    Carey's were also contracting for the MUA on this project.

    In 2015 when the floods trashed the NSC part of the blame lay in the build up of debris lying in the channel between the NSC and McD's. DOI have only just had contractors in doing some clearing work in the past few weeks. So 4 years to get to a problem. Although the clearing was going to be sympathetic to the ducks....

    I go past there multiple times per week. They cleared it after the floods in 2015. So this isn't the first time they have cleared it.

  4. Why are they using GSM network? Surely they would be better settting up a LoRa or other Narrowband network that can be used for other things such as vehicle tracking. 

    What type of communication to those big waste bins with the solar panels use? I think they can be monitored remotely so only get emptied when full rather than every day.

     

  5. I have often wondered if what you are suggesting was the case. I had loads of fillings in the first few years of high school. I find it strange that I needed fillings after only having the teeth for a few years. While some of my teeth are fine nearly 30 years later.

     

    I'm also having problems with the teeth that were filled now needing root canal treatment or removing all together.

     

    My wife who wasn't brought up on the IOM hardly has any fillings.

  6. More goings on, Julie from the Cornerhouse seems to be recruiting bands for Legends, so not sure what is going on there? Also the Traf has a new landlord, who is encouraging live music back to there.

  7. My wife and I went to the Bike Shed last night to watch some music and strippers, but ended up just staying in Paragon chatting to random people.

     

    While my wife was chatting to people at the bar and ending up getting us drinks bought for us, two people came and sat at our table. After chatting to them for a while, the girl mentioned that she had to bribe her daughter to go to the Decon Blue gig at PBF and I just said to her, 'did you post that on MF?' she was very shocked that I had said that, and admitted that she was thebees.

     

    I know a few people on here through one way or another but it's the first time I've actually met someone who I didn't know from on here.

     

    Had a good ole chat, it was fun.
