    Bad law removing the cane. See, I don't like getting the whack, but detention is great cos all my mates are there too...it's a holiday camp.
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Nor me but at my school, they burnt a building....like 3 storeys.....regular beatings by the 'Clifton Army'....I was a good runner, would just pick on anyone with cause........most of that year ended up in jail when they were older.............a common event was they would all line up and run into the playground....there was only one way out....and beat the shit out of anyone in the way........I lived in the posh houses outside the school so got fit!!!

    If you had a party and had trubs, you called these guys....

    If I was a parent (well I am), I would be glad my kids were in NZ.....

    It extends to all things these days. Recently I had to reapply for an advanced handlers certificate to handle dangerous chemcials. The certificate lasts 5 years and you need one to apply certain chemicals.

    Problem with the whole idea which directly puts the whole advanced handlers cerificate into the "what a fucking joke" basket.

    1. You do not need an AHC to BUY dangerous chemicals. The reason they give is that the shops should not be acting like police and asking for your cert before you buy chemicals that can have very adverse effects on the environment and quite possibly can kill wildlife, fish and people............. However you must provide ID to buy ciggys.

    2. You do not need an AHC to APPLY dangerous chemicals. You simply have to be working for a company that has someone in it that has an AHC. The person with the AHC does not have to be supervising the application of dangerous chemicals. They simply have to be "on site".

    Why do we need an AHC you ask then? Oh shit, I forgot to ask as I handed over the $100 for the ticket.

    Nearly all men can stand adversity and hard time, but if you want to test a mans true character, give him power....

    Has anyone applied to a local council to do anything recently? Cut down a tree? Build a house or shed?

    One of the first stories we learned at school, Chicken Little, the sky is falling!

    It's still falling for a certain class of people and they still gather to make rules to stop it!

    Unfortunately they will always be standing for office to guide the rest of us who actually know what we are doing and get on with it.

    Even more unfortunate is the fact that they actually get elected, every time!

    Maybe Chicken Little was right! Disgusted, John.

    New garage last year....
    Old one had downpipes onto the driveway, water flowed down the drive, across the pavement and into the gutter. No problem. Existing use.
    New one...can't do that, must pipe it under the pavement to the gutter.
    Why?
    Because people might get their feet wet.
    WTF? It's raining. If they don't want to get wet, they won't be out walking.
    That's the rules. Won't be signing off the permit if not done.
    Gah!!!
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?
