Very good Mr Capt_mulch. I am now sure it was you I saw that weekend at the Royal Easter Show Shearing Contest, holding on very tightly to a frisky young ewe, and "not shearing the cutie with anyone!"
You don’t have a mortgage on a holiday house in Wairarapa by any chance do you?

It is not exactly funny what is happening in the financial institutions with mortgages at the moment, but I understand it has been going on for some time.
Perhaps a lot longer than most of us think, if this snippet of information that Derek my M10 love tripped over is accurate.

>”I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.”

It is a good thing we don’t have mortgages on our climbing equipment isn’t it possums?

Shopping Scam.

Mr Capt_mulch warned me about a shopping scam that happened to him at Coles the other day, and since it is so serious I thought I would share it with the wider audience.

I understand that this happens at Woolworths too, so don't desert Coles just yet.

A heads-up for those who may be regular Coles customers.

Over the last month or so he became a victim of a clever scam while out shopping. Simply going out to get supplies has turned out to be quite traumatic.

Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you or your friends.

Here's how the scam works:

Two seriously good-looking 20-21 year-old girls came over to his car as he was packing his shopping into the Go Anywhere Getz. They both started wiping his windshield with a cloth and Windex, with their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts. It was impossible for Mr Capt_mulch not to look. When he thanked them and offered them a tip, they said 'No' and instead asked him for a ride to McDonalds. He agreed and they got in the backseat. On the way, they started undressing. Then one of them climbed over into the front seat and started crawling all over him, while the other one stole his wallet.

He had his wallet stolen August 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, 24th & 29th.

Also September 1st, 4th, twice on the 8th, 16th, 23rd, 26th, 30th, three times last Saturday and very likely again this upcoming weekend.

So tell your friends to be careful.

p.s. Mr Capt_mulch also tells me that Coles have wallets on sale for $4.95 each.
