    Impressive effort, obviously trained like to be a stayer, and ridden like one, a dying art it seems these days, just pop overseas, and buy a ready made one, seems to be the normal now, just need deep pockets, very deep.

    Yes how very true, many high rollers been clipping the ticket for sometime, I see consultants also mentioned, they cost councils a fortune, sad to see people lose jobs, but money been handed out like lollies for two long.

    Unfortunately the world we live in these days doesn't want to hear criticism, they only want to hear positive stuff, so all this is not surprising, speakout and get stepped on, very much like the previous government, they didn't want people speaking out, just wanted to control everything and everyone, the covid rules, banning the smokers, just a couple of examples.

    Shad got a reaction from Insider in I've been thinking....   
    Well look, some of these people are receiving big salaries, while the rest of us battle the standard or minimum wage, during a cost of living crisis, most of the councils are broke anyway, won't be many not proposing big rate rises, maybe they should be paid on performance, like racing and politicians, way to top heavy, in my opinion, all clipping the ticket, not to mention the money spent on consultants, there's another can of worms.
  21. Thanks
    Shad reacted to Insider in I've been thinking....   
    Good point, cut the salaries and make it pay.
    Assuming that they all still get something reasonable to live on AND if it still can't work then and only then, close it down.
    Isn't that how the free market works?
    Well that's how it works in the two industries that I am involved in....horse breeding and art materials.

    How very true, pest suffering in an agonizing death, doesn't matter, plenty of four legged ones running amuck in a supermarket, have to wonder how long previous this had gone on for, find it quite humorous, these markets are frequently audited and have pest control regularly, one must ask what's gone wrong, food safety have said it could take months for their investigation, surprised they hadnt taken action immediately, just as well the owners have, whole system been a failure for sure, one can only say rats.

    Pathetic captaincy by Santner. .Left his best bowler Ferg to bowl the last over when the damage was done. Then promotes himself to bat at 3 and his eyes cant track the ball. Boult the spectator no form 0 for 50. Also wides for Africa!
    Oh and Katie Martin rabitting on and on. Get Frankie ffs.
    These  NZ players are wrapped in cotton wool. Stead must be a soft - - - -to let this happen
