Just recently, twice within a few weeks, no network in Manly at the petrol station. The few of us with cash paid for petrol. 

 

The credit/debit card people had to solve the payment problem.

 

My only difficulty was driving around the waiting cars over kerbs etc 

 

The sales people I know for years, a few weeks later, said it was warfare.

 

The other day we just had a complete collapse on Sydney Northern Beaches. About 2.5 hours... so no issues!

Thank you all for the entertainment.

Love reading comments from "Whingers", "Dinosaurs (who won't or hate change)", the so called "Rebel" who wants to defy everything. I thought most of you were out enjoying yourselves, but by the tone of some of these comments, a lot of you wake up bitter & twisted. Like me, you are probably in the last "quartile" of your life, for goodness sake, just bloody enjoy it.

What is wrong with having an interest and a discussion on current affairs. You may call the members here "Whingers, Dinosaurs, Rebels but it's a site better than being an unthinking out of touch troll with a dead mind..

MSQ  I concur with your comments. We the elders and the learned are the people who correct the errors of the young and inexperienced.
