My dispute with my neighbour went up a notch last night.
The missus had a restraining order delivered by our local p.
He apologised and said he was just doing his duty etc etc but I'm being to court in 2 weeks by nut-bag neighbour for fixation on her harrasment of her daughters.
None true execpy I raise my voice in public
We went out to dinner at friends and I was bowled over the expressions of support from every-one there.
News seemed to get around and late this afternoon I had a visit from some more and guess what, a fairly wealthy woman tells me she's buying me suit (new I think) taking me to Ballaarat tomorrow to see her solicitor.
I told her I can't afford this and she told I didn't have to, it was being paid for by her and one or 2 friends and I wasn't going to be allowed to pay it back.
She told this woman is a viper and a fairly large % of the people she knows are shunning her, even the restaurant where I raised my voice in a torrent of frustration are making her unwelcome.
This is the WTF because really just don't understand what she expects to get out this except social ostricisation.

I know this is all going to work out fine but I'm finding myself unable to sleep for much the 2 or 3 days because .
I'm have trouble slow my thoughts down enough to nod off.
Oh well, it's just a matter of time and this bullshit purile, pointless war against me and mine is over...

My landlady flew over from Bunbury today (I don't have an estate agent) and we discussed the situation.
I told her "I needed a fence put up"
She said get it done Take it off the rent"
I need the spouting on the roof of the backroom instaled, (there aren't any) she said fix it take off the rent!
I said the fronts a bit of a quagmire, she said get some drainage installed ring these company, take off the rent, oh get it running down the drive too, it's flooding the back garden, tiotr!
(I was about tell her I plans to concrete the floor of my shed but this was all too much and figured hey I fix it myself and hang to bill.
She said do want her to take out an order against her?
I say I hope not have too bar thanks I be in touch sone.

I'm going have a large night cap and some hope sleep

What's wrong with this woman? So bizarre. :(

Glad you are getting some support 3 and your land lady sounds ok - focus on the good ( easier said than done I know!)

Only in NT!

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-07-28/b ... nk/5629540
At least four prisoners in Darwin are suspected of repeatedly escaping the prison, getting drunk, then voluntarily returning to the facility in the hope no one would notice.

The ABC understands authorities were checking whether low-security prisoners have repeatedly escaped from a work release centre at Berrimah jail for a few hours after a 7pm headcount.

"It would appear that a couple of prisoners have jumped the fence but returned," a spokesman for NT Department of Correctional Services said.

Authorities were believed to suspect the group, and possibly other prisoners, were from time to time jumping a cyclone fence, getting picked up from a main road by partners and given alcohol and marijuana, before breaking back into prison a few hours later.

The deception was eventually discovered shortly after midnight in the early hours of Sunday July 20 when five drunk prisoners were found fighting over a mobile phone.

Gees no way! That's bloody ridiculous, can't believe obvious trolls don't get banned instantly.
