Also, I may be in the market for a new mobility scooter for her-in-doors    - especially if she has to go out mowing lawns and walking dogs ... 😉

I better not comment on that mate or I'll be getting another slap on the bum for trying to flog ya something when I ain't lol

Her-in-doors wouldn't have to walk the dog because they could always ride one like so many other little dogs I see doing, then she could charge extra for the dog walking service for providing an extra duty of care :^O

we have 2 Rottis so it would need an extra heavy duty scooter for ours ...

What the Gillard government has done is to place people who were receiving the single parent pension payment on to the NewStart allowance.  People now receive from $160 less per fortnight.  

I don't think this is a good idea, however I don't think it was fair that people who'd been on a single parent payment for 15 years should get paid more than a single parent who'd been on welfare for 2 years.  I think that's up to $160 pf.  That's the sore point. People who work are the most affected because their payments reduce more than those who don't work.  That's the unfairness.  It's a dilemma, because I don't think it's right to claim welfare and stay home for 25 years as a single parent.

if you think things are bad read Tony Abbot's real solutions and see what they will be like if he is elected.

tie the dog on the back for the first lap, then mow it a hair cut too.

Then you could run an all in one dog walking, pooch trimming, lawn mowing service.

I've never been unfortunate to need my IQ done......luckily

You are lucky.  It is sometimes necessary to get some jobs.

Must add that lot to my sales pitch. Sure to increase sales out of sight 😉

Well maybe not 😞
