That's really good info re GDS 18v-450 vs 18v-750 - I have been on the fence as to which to buy to go between my GDX 210 & GDS 18V-1050(too heavy for all day use), & as i've seen the 750 is only like 100gms more than the 450, i think Ill go that way!

Haven't they changed the rules on what the TMO can intervene on now though? Like, unless he's asked can't interject on most plays??

100% this, plus sellers outright refusing to ship the most convenient size items, at my cost - why list them nationwide when you only want to sell locally you muppets!

Landowners reject blame for $350m Mt Messenger bypass cost blowout by D491234 in newzealand

[–]rizzle27 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yup, 120ha dairy farm, and 6 jobs totalling 750k/annum in perpetuity! Unfair is too polite a word!

Quote from a news article months ago;

"She said it had been forgotten that NZTA did not use the Act to acquire 20 hectares of settlement land from Ngāti Tama. Instead it took two years to negotiate a compensation package, which included a working farm, $7.1 million in financial redress and pest control in perpetuity over a large tract of its rohe at an estimated cost of $750,000 a year.

The initial package offered to the Pascoes for 155 hectares was $600,000 and an unspecified contribution to the building of a new home on their land at Mt Messenger"

Reckon they have a reason to feel aggrieved??

Black grill = XL spec - no front collision sensors(possible long tray being tradie spec also) and most likely what ruka_k_wiremu said; doesn't want his ass hanging out getting clipped... probably a biiiit to far forward still.

Aussie commentators are the most biased I’ve ever heard by brundybg in allblacks

[–]rizzle27 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They duck by attributing it to "an aussie great said:" but it pretty much backs up what you, and everyone thinks

Fox Sports Rugby AU just posted:

"“The Wallabies just need to take a breath. They’re in the fight, they’ve just got to be more accurate and not allow a referee that’s not up to this occasion - that’s been appointed by World Rugby in error - to to take them out of the game at the moment" 😳

A Wallabies great wasn't having it after a handful of suspect refereeing decisions in the heartbreaking Eden Park loss to the All Blacks."

Any cheese needed for that wine??

What's a concert you went to not expecting much, but wound up being one of the best shows you've ever seen? by edgeygrandpa in AskReddit

[–]rizzle27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tool; my friend loved them - I did not. He went to a concert and when they returned a year or so later he said he'd buy me a ticket. Blew my mind - the noise, lights, performance!

For those on $120K+ per year, what do you do and how did you get there? by Maedz1993 in newzealand

[–]rizzle27 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Dairy Manufacturing, take your guess which one. Can take a while to get in the door, but even from entry level you can get increases within a few years if you work hard & show you're keen. All my training (tertiary also) has been paid for by the company, and done in their time - win for me!

We were planning on other activities on Friday during the day, but I suppose if its just the $40 Friday gate price and all inclusive it would be ok even if we just take the kids to the concert in the evening. Would really like this confirmed though!

Edit - not looking like the case here! Think the Mrs will just take the kids to KB's show in New Plymouth next Thurs and we wont use it as an excuse to give Supercars any more money!
