Who will be our next Prime Minister
(closed)
(Preview)
Simply put. Hopefully not the encumbent person who hold the position. Today or this morning Australians need a person who is the PM who is there for you and I and not for himself. I could make a lot more comments, but I somehow doubt that it would pass the Admin team. So I will leave it at that. Jay&Dee

I lost all my camping gear in the fire that demolished the unit I was renting from the Dept. of Housing a little while ago and I badly need a camping stove for my cuppa when I go on a trip.

Ambulance, who pays.
(

(Preview)
I have often wondered, who pays for the ambulance, if you, or I, the so called patient, have an incident (minor) and someone calls the ambulance, but you or I don't require their help or assistance. In other words you didn't call it, and are quite capable of treating and being moved by your own car to wher...
