Real Estate sign chops off Internet
Wednesday afternoon my internet died.
Ring Spark and get to Chorus.
24 hours later still no internet, rang Spark yet again.
Another almost 24 hours and DOWNER rings me to say the cause is a newly erected real estate sign has chopped off internet connections to 7 Spark [neighbour] customers and other internet servers.
Finally many hours of Downer and Chorus people at mine and other neighbours and a big hole dug on the side of the road, internet back after almost 48 hours.
Big bill for the real estate I am told.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
