Recently some of the people on my floor got moved around and the co-worker who burps a lot thankfully was shifted to the other side of the floor. However a few weeks later I've been moved too....and the burping is back. Do I say something? I'm a team manager but he is more senior than I am.
Our lovely neighbours have a collection of "vintage" cars tetrissed in their driveway. The property consists of 2 units, the front being a nice guy who moved in about 2 years ago, the back being a 90+ year old lady who seems nice enough but isn't allowed to talk to us by her two kids who live with her.
The front neighbour has had some severe run-ins with them, we had some unpleasant discussions about a fence we replaced (next to front neighbour who was cool with it) because they thought the new fence is too high.
Anyway, their junk cars are leaning onto the fence between the properties which has caused it to lean in. We still have to get the surveyor in to determine if the fence is on our property, their property, or right in the middle.
They damaged the fence, and potentially their cars are encroaching onto our property and we need them moved. What's our next steps here?
Looking to bring my dad to Thailand and would like to include an island with nice beaches but also some sights (natural and/or cultural) to see.
Thinking about the islands I've been to myself, Koh Samui had a fair bit to do but I've now been there twice myself already. Koh Phangang was beautiful but more for relaxing, Koh Chang felt a bit past its prime and not too much to do.
Any suggestions? Phuket would be off due to crowds (from a certain country I'm not allowed to name apparently) but anything quieter nearby would be an option, ideally accessible with a large boat (dad has some claustrophobia).
Ik woon zelf in Nieuw-Zeeland en hier is t vrij normaal dat er soms een kakkerlak binnenkomt. Ik zei daar vorige week iets over tegen m'n vader in Nederland en die was enigzins geschokt. Nu moet ik zeggen dat de enige keer dat ik in Nederland gehoord heb van mensen die kakkerlakken in huis hadden, dat Nieuw Zeelandse/Australische vrienden waren en hun huisbaas gaf hun de schuld ("jullie zullen ze wel bij je hebben gedragen").
Iemand wel eens kakkerlakken in huis gehad?
We had a hot water cylinder installed just under 2 years ago and recently had to have one of the pipes connecting to it fixed as there was a leak. Is this normal wear and tear?
Image - leak is where the pipe coming from above connects.
The fuel tax of 32 cents per liter has been removed temporarily, but even taking that into account at AUD 2 per liter (NZD 2.45) that is still considerably less than we pay!
Cheapest I've seen on this trip was about AUD 1.60.
