  1. Wasn't sure weather to post this elsewere or start a new thread,

    so I started a new thread. :) So forgive me if I should have posted elsewere.

    Here in Canberra Australia Gay and Lesbian Unions are legal.

    While they go through a ceremony its not classed as a wedding and its not recognised under the Marriage Act so its not a "legal wedding".

    The ACT Government did try for legal marriage for same sex couples but was knocked back by the Federal Government due to same sex weddings contraviening the Marriage Act

  2. Legal drinking age here in Australia is 18 years of age.

    Has been since the late 1960's from memory.

    Did hear there was talk of putting the legal age for drinking back up to 21 years of age.

    I don't think it will stop underaged persons from getting alcohol.

  3. I drive taxis and on occasion I've found the odd wallet thats been left behind(mainly because they've been drinking).

    On one ocassion there was a large amount of money in a wallet.

    Lots of $50's n $20's.

    Could have pocketed the money and thrown away the wallet, but no sure as I do it'll come back to haunt me.

    As it was 2 am I ended up leaving it in the mailbox of where I dropped them as they're regular customers.

    Saw them a few day's later and asked if they got the wallet. They did. Money intact.

    Told them I left it in mailbox as it was 2 am when I dropped it in mailbox and they woud have given me a knukle sandwich if I knocked on their front door!

  4. Wanderer,

    I smoked for years. Put it down cold turkey and never picked up another one. However, chewing tobacco.... quiting that was that hardest thing I've ever done. I'm now tobacco free now for years! YOU CAN DO IT!!!!

    It's easier to give up the heroin than giving up the cigarettes/tobacco going cold turkey
