  1. Years ago it was always the crims who had the tattoos! ????p11 yesterday’s Sunday Telegraph????
  2. You’re spot on. Have seen the photos, wish I hadn’t of. (Photos of the remains that is, not the act of cutting.)
  3. If she accepted it and your relationship with your daughter didn’t suffer, then good for you! However, interested in hearing from those whose daughter’s did not approve. Still not talking with the daughter? What about her children (the grandkids)? Miss not knowing them? Did other family members take the side of your daughter?
  4. Easy. GPS tracker secretly fitted to her vehicle.
  5. Back to Auckland 2nd Grade Baz ????
  6. Thanks mate, appreciate the phone call suggestion and once again, have no doubts it is true, but regardless of what their staff tell me I would still like to see where it’s written on their website first. Until then I’m more than happy to stay put and keep flying TGF here. She loves it here for some reason ????‍♂️ ???? Here:
  7. I have read this many times so it must be true, but until I can see it on the C’link site I’m not prepared to risk going back to see Mrs N in LoS. Please share the link if you ever see where it says you can go abroad for say 2 x 2 weeks during your 2 years pension detention without it impacting anything ????
  8. BazzBall, where the last 6 wickets go for 9 runs. Genius.
  9. RIP Bazzball ???? ???? Seemed a good idea at the time ????
  10. ???? F$&@ that! Feel sorry for those on here who live in Patong.
  11. As at Dec 2022: Jobseeker asset test The combined worth of an applicant’s assets are considered when assessing their eligibility, and if that rises to exceed certain limits the recipient’s payment will be cut off. Assets for an eligible single JobSeeker recipient can not exceed $280,000 for homeowners, or $504,500 for non-homeowners. For eligible recipients in a couple, combined assets can not exceed $419,000 for homeowners, or $643,500 for non-homeowners.
  12. Here’s a screenshot from my MyGov app earlier this year confirming their requirement for me to report in person to their office every 2 weeks in order to receive the dole. As showing, not only did they instruct me on what date I needed to go there, but also at what time. Perhaps their wanting to see me in person every 2 weeks had something to do with me having just arrived back in the country after having lived overseas for many years…
  13. Haha, yes saw Mr Bean doing the housesitting, it’s a classic! Heaps of housesitting websites out there. Just create a profile and tell owners why they need you… and pray they didn’t watch Mr Bean blow up the owner’s house!
  14. Well, I started off on the dole but because they wanted me to attend their office every 2 weeks I had to think of another benefit because my house sits are sometimes far from my local Centrelink office. Enter the carer’s pension for an elderly relative! It pays $1,200 per fortnight. I bank $1,000 and the $200 pays the grocery bill. I also get free car rego, and heavily subsidised pharmaceuticals when needed.
  15. I’m doing housesitting for the 2 years. Rent free! Utility free! Just pay for my own food - although sometimes owners leave me food and wine etc in appreciation. Some even leave me their car.
  16. Yes, able to look for work. No, never refused it. I protest their requirement to report to them every 2 weeks - to no avail. The report involves me telling them I’m still looking for work, the guy them marks me as having attended on his computer and he says “see you again in 2 weeks”. In and out in 2 minutes. An absolute joke.
  17. I live in a capital city and I have to report in person every 2 weeks. Maybe if you live remotely they let you report online.
  18. Cost’s nothing to seek jobs as you apply online and show Centrelink the applications. The only potential cost would be transport fees to report every 2 weeks in person to the closest office.
  19. You are allowed to have up to $11k in the bank to be able claim the dole the day you arrive back in Australia. If more than $11k in the bank, you need to wait up to 3 months depending on how much you have.
  20. I didn’t sell anything, I left my stuff and car in storage and now doing my 2 years (rent-free!) in Aus and saving $A2k a month from welfare benefits whilst here. Back to Thailand next year with the extra $A52k welfare savings - plus pension for life. Thai GF visits me here every 6 months. So, in my situation, obviously not feeling sick about returning to live in Australia for those 2 years.
