Jackie felt it wasn't worth opening up for the especially for the club. that's disappointing to hear.

Swearing and bad behavior happens every where example, my son is a meat manager (butcher) at Woolworths supermarket Hervey Bay, the other day he saw a couple in the aisles badly dressed the man had no shirt on and they were both swearing he waited for a while but management did nothing to stop their bad behavior, it was embarrassing some elderly customers so he had to go up to them and ask them to leave of course he copped the onslaught of swearing and the like ..........

I have to say every time i return to Bedlington for a holiday my wife and i including our Bedlington family visit the Ridge farm for a meal, we were never disappointed with the food, the bar on the other hand was disgusting.... warm drinks no ice at times and bad service i am sorry it has closed its doors.

Have a ball on yr birthday Mate ............

Yep what canny lass said !!

Certainly a different view point to what we are getting. Wake up Australia. The amount of carbon that is produced by Australians is equivalent to a thin pencil line across a kilometre of road. The whole saga is about more tax and NOT pollution. If the Canberra TRAITORS and their bankers want more tax, then let them pay it themselves, and NOT the Australian people. It is overdue time that we stopped lavishing the privatively controlled Rothschild "Reserve" Bank which creates "money" (credit) out of nothing, which we repay with ridiculous taxes. Is this why Yanks and the rest of the world are broke? Is this why the American people are buying up guns and ammunition by the truck load? Go figure! Please read, more workers about to lose their jobs. Mr. Nolan should dissolve his company and open up 126 Pty Ltd companys. Then ensure that each truck maintains a 'Theoretical carbon level below the stipulated 25000 tonnes and pay NO TAX. Nolan's Transport For those of you who do not know, the Gatton District is located some 100k west of Brisbane, Nolan's Transport is one of the biggest employers in the area, and only last year was given the "Business of the Year" award. Now read on! Julia Gillard's Labor Party and the Greens are going to take us all down with this Carbon Tax. We, as Australians, should protest and protest until we cannot protest any more! This is a real scenario, brought on by Gillard. Nolan's Transport, which operates out of Gatton, has been earmarked as one of Gillard's 500. This Company has been going for 102 years, is still run by the family, operates 126 transports and employs 265 people. Gillard has targeted this Company as one of her 500 'guests' to pay carbon tax. Just imagine. Last year, this Company was told it put out 144,700 tonnes of carbon gas. So, 144,700 tonnes x $23 = $3,328,100.00. Yes, that is correct - 3.3 million dollars!!! Where is Australia headed if companies like this one, (and there are several much bigger than Nolan's - LinFox comes to mind) are put out of business? Our Prime Minister said there would be no extra charges on transport or fuel. What do you call 3.3 million dollars on just one operator? Any transport Company producing less than 25,000 tonnes of carbon tax pays nothing. If Nolan's goes broke or shuts down operations and another 126 replacement transports are put on the road by smaller Companies under the 25,000 tonne limit to take up the slack, then exactly the same amount of carbon gas will be produced, illustrating the futility of the whole exercise. Mr. Nolan said in an interview that if he put what the Company was worth into a bank account, he would make ten times as much in interest as he makes now, throwing 265 people out of work. We must, as citizens on Australia and tax payers - not to mention consumers of goods - somehow force Gillard and her Green and ``Independent`` cronies to an election on the issue of Carbon Tax before July this year to keep this Nation going. If we don't, this country will be ruined! This is just one scenario. What about the other 499 companies that will also be hit by this ridiculous tax? Additionally, we must not forget the other smaller companies which will fail because they depend on these larger companies which are doomed to either fold or cut back on their work-force. COME ON AUSTRALIA, THIS IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY. BRING THIS GOVERNMENT TO THE POLLS, TO SAVE OUR COUNTRY FROM GOING INTO POVERTY! IF THE TAX IS IMPLIMENTED IT WILL TAKE MANY YEARS TO RECOVER. DO YOUR PATRIOTIC DUTY FOR YOUR FELLOW AUSTRALIANS - THINGS ARE BAD ENOUGH NOW! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! Please pass on to all in your address book. A very concerned Aussie.

Perfectly

Just in mentioning our beloved P.M s nickname is JOOLIAR GILLARD.

Merlin if she meant what she said i would vote for her, having said that she has a tendency to go back on almost all of her election promises. her party is imposing a carbon tax soon that in her many election promises she openly stated would not happen here, the tax being imposed is the highest carbon tax in the world i am all for a greener place but Australian industries are at a delicate stage and if this tax is imposed they will if they can go overseas

Merlin what she was reported to have said sounds like what a majority of people think in this country,but remember two things she is a politician struggling to get as many votes as she can for her party (Labor) and there is a federal election looming

Pics please !

Bit slow but as Vic says better late than never welcome...........

A guy walks into a bar in Kentucky and orders a white wine. The Hillbillies sitting around the bar look up, expecting to see some pitiful Yankee from the north. The bartender says, "You ain't from around here, are ya?" The guy says, "No, I'm from Canada ." ... The bartender says, "What do you do in Canada ?" The guy says, "I'm a taxidermist." The bartender says, "A taxidermist? What in tarnation is a taxidermist? Do you drive a taxi?" "No", says the Canadian "A taxidermist doesn't drive a taxi. I mount animals." The bartender grins and hollers, "It's okay boys. He's one of us."

CONFESSIONAL BOX A bloke goes into the confessional box after years being away from the Church. He pulls aside the curtain, enters and sits himself down. There's a fully equipped bar with crystal glasses, the best vestry wine, Guinness on tap, cigars and liqueur chocolates nearby, and on the wall a fine photographic display of buxom ladies who appear to have mislaid their garments. He hears a priest come in: "Father, forgive me for it's been a very long time since I've been to confession and I must admit that the confessional box is much more inviting than it used to be". The priest replies, "Get out, you idiot. You're on my side"
