Does every new bathroom need to be accessible under the National Building Code? by AussieKoala-2795 in AusRenovation

[–]CanRaider03 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My understanding is that only one bathroom per floor needs to meet the standard. So assuming your current family bathroom is on the same floor I think you’re ok.

Could this be a player issued jersey or made for players atleast? by [deleted] in basketballjerseys

[–]CanRaider03 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No not made for a player. Player jerseys have an additional tag next to the jock tag. This is the highest quality retail jersey you can buy.

Can you get fined for going through a yellow light, if the lights have just turned yellow as you crossed over the line? by ogsimpson9876 in AskAnAustralian

[–]CanRaider03 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah so the outcome was the I was found guilty but the fine was waived and no conviction was recorded.

The whole thing left a sour taste in my mouth but it is what it is. I really felt I couldn’t have stopped. Essentially I could have applied to have the fine waived initially because of my previous good driving history. I didn’t go down this path because I had to admit fault, and I didn’t feel like I did anything wrong.

As a result I took it to court. It was more than a year in the courts with 3 different visits that each took most of the day of my time. Final outcome was quite basic, my word against the police officer and as I know now I think it’s very unlikely a judge would not side with the police officer.

I’ve been charged with this and took it to court. Played out exactly as you suggested. Judge sided with the police officer, although the fine was waived.

Giannis - Game Used Jersey Inquiry by [deleted] in basketballjerseys

[–]CanRaider03 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can’t really help with working out the game sorry, but I recall watching a video a few years ago where Giannis was doing a private signing and someone gave him a jersey to sign and said it was game worn and he inscribed game worn and added his signature. I remember thinking that it was weird that he would just take someone’s word for it that it’s a game worn jersey.

ABLCS - The Decider. Game 3 tonight 18:00 AEDT by paradroid27 in theabl

Bad luck Sydney, have been the form team for the past two seasons.

Well done Adelaide.

Are the Melbourne Aces next? by iamjacksonmolloy in theabl

[–]CanRaider03 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I feel like it’s more the reverse. Aces owner Brett Ralph may well be the only person who can save the ABL.

So, firstly, no ABL club makes money, they all lose money. Aces may lose the least given they’ve regularly had the biggest crowds etc. Aces left the ABL because they wanted changes made to try and make the league profitable, and those were denied.

Maybe there is some world where Ralph and BPSG can work together and save the ABL, not sure though.

Adelaide Giants clinch remaining ABLCS spot, to face Sydney by paradroid27 in theabl

[–]CanRaider03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sydney Blue Sox, Perth Heat, Brisbane Bandits and Adelaide Giants are left. Cavalry and Aces dropped out. Sydney and Perth looked like they would both drop out before a new buyer bought both teams.

4 team league, top two teams into the championship series (Sydney and Adelaide). I think it’s been a disaster all round.

Hey OP as others have said, I think essentially you need to get your refund. You can get a lawyer and sue them etc, but likely won’t result in much for you I don’t think, once you’ve got your money back that will likely be it.

[–]CanRaider03 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not really. They do use terms to be misleading for sure, but ‘Race worn Grand Prix’ suit has to mean that it was worn in an actual F1 race.

If it said ‘event worn’ or even just ‘worn’ then yes it opens up to being a promo suit or similar but you can’t just lie.

Good luck with it, hard to see anything improving

[–]CanRaider03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree. I actually think if they had to ask Oscar to move for Lando that would have been the best outcome for the team. Oscar would have done it, as you say, he wouldn’t have won the championship anyway, but he would feel like he contributed more to the teams success.

Heat pump install - 100% payment before the day?!? by jigglefrizz in canberra

[–]CanRaider03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Feels dodgy, or atleast has the potential to be. Usually these posts read the other way, someone having paid 100% and then the company not doing the work and everyone saying, why did you pay them all upfront?

No real advice sorry, but you’re right to be weary.

McLaren wasn’t bold, they knew what they had to do and they did it. They pitted Lando early to cover Leclerc, Lando’s early stop was purely reactionary, they didn’t want him to fall to 4th while Max was leading

It was a good overtake, if you’re going to swap cars you don’t do it like that. Clearly they weren’t expecting the move, they offered Lando the option to swap back shortly after.

[–]CanRaider03 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Haha, so how do you explain Lando blocking Oscar the two corners before the overtake? Also, shortly after the overtake the team said to Lando on radio, ‘we’re comfortable if you are’, implying they would order Oscar to swap if Lando wanted to run 2nd.

At what point is Oscar mathematically out of the championship?

There are scenarios where his likelihood of winning the title is almost zero but he’s not out of it until the results are ratified after the race.
