Jovan Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 I haven't been down there for years but why don't they just have a suspended sign across the road 50m before the bridge and if you hit this then surely you would be able to stop before ploughing into a pretty low bridge.

Jimmy Posted April 6, 2016 Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 (edited) Calling a bloke, who on this very forum, has time and time again paid out on the greens and said he'd never vote ALP for historical reasons a leftard is pretty fucking funny. 4 hours ago, Luke said: I don't claim to speak for drivers but drivers who've never had that problem literally anywhere else probably wouldn't 2nd guess themselves everytime they drive under a bridge 99.99% of large vehicle drivers know the height of their vehicle and are capable of reading signs and deciding that if their vehicle is higher than a bridge that they shouldn't proceede to crash into it. It's just a spastic minority that are discrediting the human race. Edited April 6, 2016 by Jimmy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggest culture shock between NZ and Australia was how useless Australia has been at embracing eftpos. It's 2016 if you won't accept my card you don't get my business. Edit, with the exception of Messina, but thats only because theyre lightyears ahead of any competition.

I've always believed the reason a lot of fast food places don't accept card payments is because they're doing GST dodgies, and the reason for that is because raw food is GST exempt so they don't get any credit for their main inputs. My quick research suggests there is no such exemption on raw food in NZ, and from what you say more places accept card payments. So I'm taking this as further evidence to support my theory Edited April 14, 2016 by Tesla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
