Re: Tabalugas

Just my opinion @SmilingGecko 

Yeah my last bill $700 as had not applied concessions. Not good. Cant get get monthly bill as wrong meter type

Re: Tabalugas

Wow @TAB thats a mega bill. Yes they ripped out my meter when they installed aircon plus put in new things with the solar so its been monthly billing for a while now I've gone back to looking at my bill. I don't know how much solar is going to cover things. My bill was zero but I made Centrepay contributions in addition to having the solar panels. I sent you a screenshot of my usage - it was 1/2 as much for the previous month but did not seem to be reflected in $ savings. I was still coughing up money for electricity. I guess we'll see. Did see that windfarms were economic and financial fraud today. There is apparently intermittency when there is no wind and the taxpayer has to pay the cost when the turbines are not going around to generate electricity. Some commentators are saying the same about solar which has got me wondering.

Saw these comments after the article, it was a good discussion:

Re: Tabalugas

when wind does not blow , they do not make money , then lovely people like AGL who generate power from coal make ,000s of percent profit cos its a spot market , sometimes they might get .12c/kw  other $8 the generators are the worst if price is low, they just stop making power. Stupid system, totally corrupt, only works for big corporate power producers @SmilingGecko

Re: Tabalugas

I know what you mean about Kentucky Fried Chicken  @StuF  Stopped eating it the day I found a cat collar in my batter.  If I throw something at the wall and it sticks,  well I tend not to trust it. 

 

I hope they don't do away with cash @TAB   @SmilingGecko .   Markets and my road side stall depended on cash.  Hope people start writing some stern letters.   Anyway. . .   I always say,

never meet a problem half way.  I hope the heat abates and you all get some peaceful sleep.

 

Hey @Oaktree ,   Hope your veggies and your hobby are growing.  Self sufficiency is a good backstop in a financial melt down.   If I have a full stomach n my guitar,  OH . .   and a big gun with lots of spare corks,   well I'm half way to happy.

 

Hey @Meowmy  n  @Glisten .   Fluid situation in rehab,   Basterds are working my ass so may miss a day here n there.

 

Before I go ,  I worked in a hardware store once and I noticed  when a hot muggy week  buddied up with a full moon,  sales of  axes,  hammers,    chainsaws,  and bin liners  bloomed.   Never did quite figure out why. . . .

 

Anyway,  stay cool, n play cool  n   wipe the walls down . . .,     Good night dear friends.       tonys..

Re: Tabalugas

Just a sleep in @Meowmy  ,slept 4.5hrs  .,2.5 and 1.

Good Morning to you ,and @StuF 

Re: Tabalugas

Good morning @TAB @Meowmy @tonys @StuF @Oaktree @Historylover @NatureLover 

 

Its cooler outside today. My blood sugars are doing good this morning - 5.7 and that was after eating a healthy snack in the early hours. Will go for a walk today. Got to put the bins out tonight for tomorrows collection so will be cleaning the kitchen. 

 

Watching a financial presentation from The Organic Prepper from the USA today and reading my Crypto book. Its from the "Dummies" collection and there was more in it than these free sensitive time window webinars that you watch at midnight that they eventually sell for a steep price. I'm loving this book its amazing. I don't know why I did not get it sooner. Got to read it through then re-read. So much better than signing up for pricey Crypto coaching. I was really offput by the sophistication of Crypto but now it seems as if its in reach to someone like me. 

 

Bought some dirt cheap brand new jewellery from Salvos around the under $5 mark last week. I buy really cheap jewellery when the moon is void of course (between zodiac signs ie it is not in any sign eg it could be between leo and virgo but not in any sign as such) you always get a surprising bargain during a void of course moon when you buy something for an ultra low price. My earrings were brand new from Sportsgirl and my ring was used from Mimco but it fits my finger and will look great on.  Reject Shops and $2 shops are always good to go to during a void of course moon - you end up getting a high quality item for nix. Your shopping experiences usually get generously rewarded, at least thats been my experience. You get amazing stuff at little cost. I always limit my purchases however to a few dollars that is what I've been told by astrologers.

 

Here's how you do it:

 

Table for void of course moons: https://mooncalendar.astro-seek.com/void-of-course-moon-astrology-online-calendar

 

Its set at Greenwich Mean Time GMT but you can adjust for your timezone by entering in your locality Where it says "Change to your local time zone".

 

eg. For Dec 1 the void of course moon in Greenwich Meantime started at 13:06pm (ie 1:06pm) and ended on the same day Dec 1 16:01pm (ie 4:01pm). If you were living at that locality it would be the perfect time to elect to buy dirt cheap goods

 

Here is what it looks like.
