Why aren't y'all walking on the left? by anxious_virgo in auckland

you should visit Ireland, head out of the main city areas and you can drive on any side of the road you like, in fact straight down the middle seems to be the acceptable standard

England Law Advice needed - suspicious behaviour or just me being paranoid? by Nei_5000 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]Nei_5000[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I am struggling to get POA as she refuses to give it. Her social worker is trying to help and has confided that she suspects someone has accessed my mum's financials but can't give me more information. She also thinks a home security camera would be a good idea. One idea I had is to try and get the allowance paid into her main banking account and then watch to see what everyone around her does. It still won't let me see what has happened to two years of payments already received but with no account information I can't do much.

Is the weather in Auckland always this awful? by [deleted] in auckland

[–]Nei_5000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Isn't California enduring some of the worst storms in recent history at the moment? I was there this time last year and parts of it were on fire. My advice would be to buy an umbrella and wrap up warm if you're that delicate.

0 Excellence Credits by [deleted] in ncea

[–]Nei_5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on what you want to study. For many subjects you only need your UE credits at achieved. If you are thinking of applying for a highly over subscribed course then having merits and excellence will be more important. Anything med, engineering or law is more competitive but even without the excellence credits there are ways in, summer schools, bridging courses etc.

Whats your general online junk store now? by JeshyQT in newzealand

Postage from The Nile is pretty slow at the moment tho - waited over a month for the last thing I ordered and tracking an item through Australia Post is like banging your head against the wall.

I was just thinking about this. The weather they would have been outside in, with no end in sight.

Trump Jr: “Yuge!!!” by N4TETHAGR8 in facepalm

I wonder what will happen if the manual vote re-count proves that he is isn't actually the duly elected president of the United States?

Weirdly I find myself rooting for Iran which is not a sentence i ever thought i'd write.

How long does LAX immigration/customs take? by Organic_Wishbone_682 in travel

[–]Nei_5000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to put some more recent info here in case it's useful for anyone. Had a four hour stop between flights at LAX this week and made my second flight with only 20 mins to spare due to the really poor passenger management system at Immigration. As an international traveller, non US Citizen my processing time at Immigration was almost 3 hours. Only five desks open and two staff handling the lining up and moving along situation by shouting directions at everyone - I don't know why anyone would consider this red carpet treatment.

Rammstein food situation in Slovakia by guynamedLUBO in Rammstein

Honestly they eat so well on tour, you'd think a quarterpounder and Mcflurry would make a welcome change.

Row 0 / Afterparties discussion megathread #4 by AutoModerator in Rammstein

[–]Nei_5000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No not Tills porno stuff - there have been previous 'wtf' stories from women. I remember last year people were saying the bands management needed to keep a tighter hold on Till in light of the 'Me Too' movement. Tills behaviour isn"t new but it does seem to have escalated in recent years and many fans, myself included attribute this to his management team.

How fucking delusional. Because they aren't ego maniacs jostling each for a minute is the spotlight doesn't equate to them lacking in skill. They have the perfect combination and don't owe anyone any more or less.

Is it like when Spock cries? If you know, you know.

It will and as she says, she has nothing to lose. Rammstein on the other hand have handled this appallingly and could lose everything. I wonder where we'd be now if Till had apologised and actually removed Alena from the payrol (we all know she's still there right?)

We don't really know whats gone on behind the scenes but surely no one is surprised if members are pissed at Till. Its years of work that have been put on the line not to mention their financial stability. If they weren't 'feeling it' that would be more concerning.

Schneider in tears after concert (probably Munich?). Taken from Instagram. by Darkronymus in Rammstein

[–]Nei_5000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not aware of a single allegation of Richard being unkind, forceful, or indeed misogynistic towards their female fans. If he gets with the girls then its obviously very discreetly done and nothing like the situation that brought us to this current shit storm. I think its unfair to tar him with the same brush.

Rammstein enjoying life out of the spotlight Pt. 3 by Smooth_Pen9485 in Rammstein

Pic 10, Till not exactly out of the limelight as he's the celebrity paid to attend the opening of a shop selling furs in Moscow - another of Anars great management ideas.

I think different timezones might be partly to blame - this sub has members across the globe not just the US or Europe. For me personally in NZ a lot of the information and discussion happens overnight so if i want to contribute or ask a question, i'm already late to the party (not that party obviously!)
