Rantful Tuesday
I'm in the mood for a rant. A great big rant. And that's not a euphemism for anything...
I'm just so cranky this morning, and I need some release...
* Bloody Jihad Jack and the bloody control order. I'm so angry about the unbelievable politicisation and interference going on here. And in particular, I love the fact that he isn't allowed to phone Osama Bin Laden. And Richard Glover gave me the shits again yesterday, with his 'oh, but it's not that onerous, as far as Control Orders go now is it?' Yep that's right Richard - and you wouldn't squeal like a stuck pig if someone denied you the right to leave your house between midnight and 5am, or required you to attend a police station 3 times a week...
And they're now linking him to JI, based on the fact that his Indonesian wife went to school with someone who ended up married to Bashir. Well if that's all it take, then whack a Control Order on me straight away. Coz I went to school with someone who became Press Secretary for Meg Lees, and if that's not an act of Political Terrorism, then I don't know what is...?
* My kids' daycare centre was fined $1500 yesterday. We've been having an ongoing fight with the neighbours behind the centre. The neighbours who moved into the house only a couple of years ago, therefore AFTER the centre started operating. The neighbours don't like the sound of children playing (apparently it's not all cute laughing and giggling. Sometimes children scream and shout too y'know...). So, they got the council involved. And the EPA. And now the kids aren't allowed outside before 9am, or after 4:30pm. Last week a parent was seen at 5pm in the backyard, collecting a hat. Not a child. Not a staff member. A parent. And so the centre's been fined. It's all a bloody joke. This would be the same neighbour who once hosed the kids because they were making too much noise. But that's ok apparently.
* And, um, heaps of other stuff. Which I seem to have forgotten about. But it'll come back to me in a minute. And then you'll be sorry...

How will they prove it? I'd send the fine back and tell em they aint got no evidence.
Then go and plant marijuana in their yard and blow up to the police and media that they are growing drugs oh so close to kids.......as you can see i should bever get pissed off.....
Thats terrible about the $1.5k fine. How could they do that! The council should be more considerate of the childcare centre rather than one grumpy neighbour as there are more rate payers involved at the centre.
It reminds me of those people who move into a trendy area with lots of noisy bars and pubs and then complain about the noise.
Or those people who moved next to Luna Park and then complained about the sound of the roller coasters...
What a wank. Maybe teh child care centre should collect all the littlest kids' nappies and "accidentally" drop turds over the fence when the neighbours aren't looking.
moggi - the kids go to daycare in the Shire. But SSC is as bad as WCC. Or maybe not. I'm too tired to get into a WCC-related rant right now. Don't get me started...
Argh!
