"*any where*"? The advertisement is a lie. There is no coverage in the
majority of Australia. Basically, go very far away from population
centres, and you can expect to be on your own.

More likely just a reference to this

Given the finding in that case, it would hardly be sensible to suggest
that I am Justice Gordon.

Maybe, it sure looks like $109 but the line through it makes it difficult to
say for sure.

Yep, it's $189.

Actually, it's quite easy to "say for sure".

Highlight the figure in your web browser, then Control-C, then paste it
into a text editor.

Then you'll see it IS $189.

So much for the renowned problem-solving skills of engineers.

Oh wait... that's right... you're a technician.

Yep, already done and previously posted!
I guess pedantic fools like you have plenty of time to do this in the first
place rather than simply accept a joke complete with smiley!

Even *if* I was, that would be a HUGE step up from a kindergarten drop-out

You don't know Sylvia Else is real?
Don't you remember the lead story in all media in regards to Ms Else
being upset with the keep-left signs at the corner of Duke Street and
Ryrie Avenue, Forestville?

Neither do I. If I recall correctly, it was about the 4th story or

exaggerate the reporting of these stories?

I was being annoyed by them - or more specifically, by what as left of
them after they'd been demolished. It's bad enough having to watch out
for obstacles on the road without having the council provide extra ones.

If my concerns were reported in Newcastle (though imagine my scepticism
about that) then they must have been really short of real news.
