Ok
today we have some things I saw on Sunrise this morning, first up
there was talk about how the little green and red men at traffic
lights you know what I mean you cross when the little man goes from
red to green well they are now going to change some lights from
little men to little women in skirts, why, really why I don't
understand why councils or government or who ever it is who has
decided to do that would waste money changing the lights to me it is
just a huge waste of money.
I
think most people would feel living in a gated community would be
pretty safe they are protect from the bad guys but on the news this
morning a man was killed by his brother so when the bad guy is your
brother you are not so safe.
A
Melbourne mother has spoken out after she and her infant baby were
told to leave a city bowling alley because the venue was serving
alcohol, she
wanted to catch up with friends and thought Strike Bowling would be a
better place to take her infant daughter than the pub.
“We
could have taken her to the pub, ironically that would have been
legal, but I thought a less suitable environment to have a
three-month-old baby in,” she said.
So
the new mum and her family joined a group of friends at the bowling
alley in central Melbourne on Friday night. But the fun lasted just
half an hour after the group was evicted under liquor licensing laws
when the venue started serving alcohol at 8pm.
“The
reason for the law being in existence is to prevent minors from
purchasing alcohol,”
“Clearly
there’s no chance a three-month-old would be drinking anything
other than milk.”Strike Bowling bans anyone under 18 from the
premises once the bar opens, which is designed “to offer a
protected and safe experience”, according to company policy.
Strike
Bowling did refund the family’s game and has invited them back to
bowl free of charge, I don't know if I would be going back any time
soon if it was me.
I know someone who lives in a gated community. The gates are always open.

Yeah wonder what the point would be if the gates are opened
DeleteChanging the lights sounds like a waste of money to me, too.
ReplyDeleteNo matter where you lived if your brother wanted to kill you there's no safe place. ;)
So true I am glad my brother doesn't want to kill me...............
DeleteInteresting regarding the lights - only a few I suppose to see how they are received by the public.
ReplyDeleteYes they are starting with 10 sets of lights from what I heard
DeleteSeriously? That poor mom just trying to enjoy some time with friends. Unbelievable.
ReplyDeleteWe have a LOT of goofy laws here in the US.

Gated communities are a bit misleading. My daughter has a vacation home in one and we all know the code to get in so when we visit. As a Realtor, I know hundreds of codes so I can show property. The fact is that if you are a violent person that has access to codes, the person living in the gated community isn't going to be any safer than any other random house.
ReplyDeleteThere are so many cases of waste involved with government. I agree with you. What a bunch of nonsense to change the little figure on the light.
So many stupid laws that people take too literal.
