  6. I just had cause to be down in Boganville setting up. Outside...on tarmac, near the beach...I was delightfully informed that at around 4pm it was registering over 50....thats not a typo. it cant change quick enough
  7. which one ?
  8. Last i heard Portsea and Sorrento were trying to distance themselves further by establishing a Principality !!
  9. and then we come back to utilities where less is more. you use less, you pay more
  10. The idea of subdividing the transit system under the notion of "competition " was the start of the rot. How can there be competition with different elements servicing different destinations etc. It was flawed as a concept and buggered in delivery. Yes that was a Govt decision... a bad one. Myki , also a Govt introduction. The authority, any authority that actual RAN a system didn't want it as was full of problems from the get go..it too a govt decision not an PT one, they just have to wear it. these things occurred as result of 'agendas' not genuine progress
  11. thing is DC...PT is and ought to be a Public Service provision. By all means run it properly but that often is at loggerheads with pennypinching and eyes only on the bottom line. To have allowed two incompatible train designs loose on once homogeneous network was ridiculous. Had there been ONE authority overseeing this wed have saved millions...Remember.. the franchise didnt buy the trains..just ordered them WE paid for them. One lot the crappy french Xtraps cant even run safely at theposted speeds allowed. Brilliant !! btw I have much respect for Ingénierie Française, but those xtraps were from the bargain basement what other city allows more than one body to oversee one element of infrastructure ?? f'n stupidity to the x !!
  12. tell ya one thing...they never would have ordered trains that didnt work all over the whole system and thus requirer 100's of millions spent on resignalling and associated things. !! requires extra driver training and accreditations etc. be funny...if it wasnt
  13. Public transport and utilities... we got it all slightly wrong
  14. Things are fine...the Beach relatively uncrowded Im not surprised you have troubles crossing the border.. As a previous inhabitant of Boganville I sense they feel much maligned. I mean not all wear Moccies......not since Crocs came on the scene and some aspirants even sport Haviannas knock offs....true...lol If you have continued difficulties escaping cast a message in a bottle, im sure the tide will bring it up our way. Im in Franga friday, maybe I can arrange for your freedom !!

  23. Frog...most of my inlaws and my Wife are maggies. They've pitied me . Im getting as many bets in with charitable point lines as I can before they realise the folly In past years its been a wishful hope. In 2014 its game on. Enjoy your holiday.
