Rossmoyne Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 (edited) I like how Oz, takes on the islamic nuts, straight away, wish Uk would do the same, you may know different ? Well it seems the government here doesn't do it straight away... but they have been monitoring for a long time thankfully! I have nothing against Muslims... each to their own with religion I say.... I am just so very angry about all the Islam Extremists and the fact that the Muslim community does not come out and say they do not support the Islamic Extremists.... Makes me wonder if they do support them but silentlyl.... Just look at what happened in Sydney yesterday when all the AFP/ASIO stuff was going down in various suburbs.... What happened was because terrorists were about to commit various forms of terrorism, many houses known to house these people were raided. And who complained about the raids??? Well it was Muslims on the streets! Hallo.... if you want the rest of Australia and the world to believe that most Muslims have a gentle religion, you would decry what the known terrorists are doing. I have been very open minded about this whole muslim/islam issue until this week..... Nasty people in all nations... that sort of stuff... I totally get that.... Nazis, the Japs in the last world war. I have German and Japanese friends. But the muslim people as a whole community in Australia who stand up for their so called "peacefull religion" and actually decry what is happening in the name of Islam...they need to stop sending their youth to Syria and other places to be "fighters".... I have never been racist... I have friends of many cultures and skin colours... it really doesn't matter to me what people look like... it is about how they are and what they believe and how they treat people. But I reluctantly have to say that I very concerned about all the atrocities that are happening in many parts of the world that are being performed by Islamic Extremists. These people seem to be so evil... why are we giving them oxygen to breath? Where are the nations who stood against Hitler? This is as despicable. What is the western world going to do about this ????? Edited September 19, 2014 by Rossmoyne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest6235 Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Opened up my e-mail at 2pm today and I had an email from a guy at a company in Wangara asking me to contact him in relation to fixing me up an interview. I only emailed him because I saw a job advert on seek and I explained when we are going to arrive in Perth and if any other such positions become available then can he please keep my CV on file. That was 3 weeks ago and I thought nothing else of it. Not sure how the interview will work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest6235 Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 Just called that bloke & asked him if he realised that I'm not there until January & he said yeah after reading your email again I realise that and he was just getting someone to draft an email to me to explain things. I had about 10 min chat with him, he sounded a very nice and reasonable bloke. He was impressed with my CV and said when you get over give him a call but he can't guarantee anything, you can't ask more than that. I'm not that fussed of this outcome as my original email was only asking him to keep my details on file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaffanZimbo Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 IKNWC woken at 6.50am by the AirBag Man coming to try and remedy a fault on the car which is getting shipped at 10am - no pressure. Poor guy tried everything but cannot get the Bluetooth to connect so we'll need to contact John Hughes in Perth once the car is cleared. OH seriously unimpressed as the fault was not there before they converted the reading to KPH. PSS guys arrived hot on his heals at 7.30am and ready for the container to arrive at 10am.... only to get a phone call at 8am to say fog at the ports had delayed the container being loaded onto the truck.... AARGH!! 11.08am and still waiting to hear when the truck will be with us. PSS guys sitting doing crosswords and refusing the offer of more tea and biscuits - all tea'd out! Everything packed ready to load... I want to crack on with the painting of skirtings etc but that will have to wait till the rooms all cleared. On a more humourous note OH very chilled last night sitting on the lounge floor watching TV on our £10 TV and seemed unconcerned when I asked if he had checked his suitcase for essentials.... when I mentioned the airfreight bag taking his tools, work boots etc he was a little quiet... he'd cleaned his boots and left them in the garage - yes, they were now in a box (179 boxes in total!). Thank goodness for the PSS inventory which detailed exactly which box they were in! Passports, etickets and other valuables now all accounted for and safely tucked away with the luggage going with on the plane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
