now, are you the one who wants a postmas in stockings and satin LOLOL?
or the one talking about unions and 44 gallon drums?
*scrolls back for a peek*
Actually I don't want some fellow turning up in satin and stockings with a parcel or anything else, hurmph. I just meant that for what Australia Post charges, we should all have our own individual royal messenger. If their service was 100% successful with overnight delivery anywhere within the nation, I would still have a go at them as long as they are making a profit.
They have no right to be doing so and all prices should be set to break even at best and small loss at worst. We pay taxation to cover the services that Government provides and they have the legislative capability to raise taxes if they need to that is the ONLY way they should be generating revenue. Forcing Australia Post to make a profit, pay a dividend and then tax them on it is a fraud on Australia Post's users and the Australian taxpayer. The only reason they can get away with it is because of the general ignorance and apathy of the Australian people.

anyway, hi Billy
I thought it was a fair assumption. I don't know any "sheilas" who ever use either "crikey" or "mate" in conversation but then I don't know anything about "stalking horses".
