Ozziejack commented on NSW Car Rego - Is $1240 Expensive or Normal?
We came up from Victoria a few years ago and couldn't believe the differences. NSW is definitely much dearer. The CTP in Vic is run by the…
There were quite a few tradies and I think they often advertised ahead in the papers of the towns near where they were going. Apparently…
I went round Australia in 1980 by myself. Up the East Coast across the top and down the WA coast. There are some long and lonely patches on…
Ozziejack commented on What Did You Do on Your Long Service Leave?
By the way, on our trip up the Eastern Coast we had schoolwork for the kids to do provided by their school. We found that they did that and…
Ozziejack commented on What Did You Do on Your Long Service Leave?
Do something you wouldn't be able to do normally. We had three kids and took a caravan trip from Victoria right up the Eastern Coast past…
It's the methods of killing competition that I find annoying with Bunnings - buying up suitable blocks in towns to keep Masters out etc. I…
Ozziejack commented on Why is NSW CTP so expensive???
Interesting about NSW car charges. We came up from Victoria about 11 years ago and noticed that car rego, CTP and insurance was much…
Ozziejack commented on How Much Does Your Accountant Charge?
I had been using the same accountant for years and the bill kept on creeping up. I have retired and the amount amount of work required has…
Ozziejack commented on Share Your Water Bill with Us
Be careful with comparing cash amounts of water bills. The rates vary according to where you are. The cost is quite variable and for…
Just don't get knives with the rubberised handles. I've got kitchen knives that I have had for 40 years with wooden or hard plastic handles…
Ozziejack commented on Looking for Cheap Dishwasher
We had a Whirlpool from new and it was a pile of rubbish. It was recommended by Choice but wasn't worth it. Repaired twice under warranty…
I find that it is not the actual drying that I use the clothes dryer for. I 90% dry my shirts on the line and then put them in the dryer…
Ozziejack commented on Warranty claims for Apple Computers
Buy Applecare before the 12 months is up - Apple parts are very expensive. Sounds like a software problem to me - Make sure you have…
You have to think about the finished result and what you want to use them for. If you are just making a copy of a document of no historical…
There are only a few of the scanner controls I use - dust removal, fading and a couple of others for badly faded or photos or slides that…
Ozziejack commented on Best value photo/slide scanner
I have a couple of the cheap all-in-one scanners and they are rubbish. You are better off with a brand name like Epson or Canon - get one…
Ozziejack commented on AGL electricity bill, please help
Yes, AGL's customer service section is a bit of a pain. I had a problem with them and I could get no satisfaction from them (It looked like…
Agree. Let the right authorities kick Cole's butt for what they have done wrong. Let's not get like the USA where people sue other people…
Ozziejack commented on Pricing - it just doesn't make sense to me
That's right - it's what the market will pay. If they don't sell then the price comes down until they do start to sell. I worked for a guy…
Ozziejack commented on Accepting 5c coins
It sounds to me like 5c pieces are on the way out like 1c and 2c pieces a few years ago. In that case it's time to collect them - they will…
Yes, I know the feeling. I had a teeth clean by a dental hygienist and then the dentist came in for an 'inspection' which lasted about 2…
