Default Rise in compo lawyer adds.

Whats the go with all the lawyer compo adds? Dangerous stuff I recon, beware if your a business owner or in a position of responsibility. Suing people at every opportunity is not the Australian way.

Will be soon fella as its the way of the world,as is welfare dependency etc etc..long gone are the days of hard working Joe making his way succesfully,an army of otherwise unemployable do-gooders have in order to get elected swayed any potential govt of sane mind to give up and give in in order to get elected,the rest is history.Not sure what the deal is in Aus but down here in NZ someone decided awhile back that it was prudent to hand out money to those wanting a child Car salesman and TAB owners alike are still

It is just part of the relentless americanisation of our culture.

Frosting not icing

Defence not defence

Junk time and the fate side in AFL, foot candy too.

Wannabe presidential style politicans.

I could go on and on.

Depends on what radio station you listen to, if you're in Melbourne and you're rocking 1377 3MP with the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s hits you get the funeral insurance and old fogies homes ads

If you listen to KIIS 101.1 you get the sage institute of massage and fitness school shizz.

That happens every year mate, just around the time the VCE results are due in (Monday next week by the way).

There are 85,000+ personal trainers in Australia, just how many of them do we need ffs?

I'm sure all the latte sipping soccer mum's need a steady turn over of new trainers so they can sound all ahead of the curve with their latest and greatest trainer no one has heard of....
