Sorry Tec, WA comes first

And the biggest fiddler of expenses in the WA Parliament is..................



....................the bl**dy Treasurer who has been claiming expenses for a house he "had" to buy when he moved from Busselton to Perth.

The fact that he has owned it for years is immaterial. He also has two chauffeur driven cars provided yet still manages to claim mileage allowance

If you fellas have an investigation you want me to conduct I may have to start charging. Oh dear I've just read that and it doesn't sound good. Ah well - you know what I mean:-))

Tec - thanks for the email. It was hilarious - I'm sure it would outrage some of your old ladies.

Hi Diane. Actually I'm not too worried now as we are getting some legal advice on how to proceed.

Good Evening Diane,

Great news about your next break - you can really enjoy your birthday.
Linda is due back next weekend I think. I hope they are enjoying themselves in Mexico. Wonder if they've found the singing bush and the Three Amigos?

Allan - They claim for houses here they haven't even got, and all the furniture and fittings to go in the imaginary houses - beyond belief.

Bye Sue - Enjoy your day,

Tec, it can be summed up in one word; Arrogance

Diane, I'm a St Pat's boy and yes I do have most of the characteristics of the Piscean nature and yes I can claim a small amount of psychic ability although this was much stronger when I was younger.

It may also be something I've 'inherited' from my maternal grandmother who was Irish.

Allan,
We have a General Election in May. Some MPs that were caught out in the recent expenses scandal have announced that they will be not seeking re-election.
When they stand down they automatically recieve a £65,000 - $130,000 payoff - who said crime doesn't pay?

Diane Report 1 Feb 2010 22:36

Bye Sue, speak to you again soon hun.

Yes Tec it is good new's, wasn't really exspecting to hear that so soon. and I do so intend to make the most of my birthday off as I can't remember ever being off on my birthday before.

Allan I used to have a lot of psychic moment's, a lot of them were warning's which I acted on, I sometime's had time's when I needed to warn people of situation's they were to avoid or beware of, I hated them type as I didn't alway's won't to say to these people the message I had to tell them. Once I ignored a feeling I had about going to visit my parent's ( to understand what I'm about to say I have to tell you that I wasn't in contact with them regularly ) I then went to their house some month's later, only to find out that my mum had passed away 7wks earlier, you can imagine how I felt. Since that happened I have never ignored a feeling like that since.

Tec, well it must be hard for them to re-establish themselves into the real world.

No more subsidised meals etc, and with that payout they still will not be able to see what a struggle it is for middle Britain.

Diane, I don't have premonitions as such, more 'glimpses' into things that may happen.

But I am very susceptible to atmosphere and there are places and areas where I will not visit.

When I worked at Macclesfield in the early 1970s I had Alderley Edge as part of my Distrisct. There was one particular road where in day time I was fine but nothing would induce me to travel on that road once it became dark.

I have had a 'pop in' from my dtr while I've been on here. Told her that I recorded on the new DVD fine on Saturday, but what I set to record on Sunday and Monday have gone wrong somewhere - so she pressed a few buttons on the remote, but couldn't do any better than I did...so she left!

I'd better go and see what I can do with it before she comes back and confuses me completely! Talk again later. Sleep well and warm Brits - have a good day Aussies.
