Crank the Croc
DON’T thank me too loudly, but Crank gets action this week.
Transport and Main Roads might be stuck in the slow lane when it comes to doing things, like, its job, but then again, like the tortoise, it gets there in the end.
Last week they finally installed large electronic signs letting drivers know that the shops on Steve Irwin Way (the ones with a front row seat to the roadworks) were open for business.
Nice one! Looks like the works are nearly finished, but better late then never.
Election brewing SANTA came to town for Caloundra residents last week.
Everywhere you looked there were little sacks of goodies being passed around.
From new money for emergency services at Aura, to a new PCYC as well as an information centre in Caloundra for anyone wondering how trains work.
Please make it stop
If I see or hear another story about breakdancing and Raygun and the sanctimonious rambling commentary I will probably just go and jump around.
On another matter, well done Australia. Lots of medals. I am still quite alarmed by the new sports that come on stream every four years. I’d just got my head around skateboarding, but then I was mesmerised
by the wall climbing – quite athletic. The bouldering was okay, but seemed a bit crossfitty. Leave.
Buy, hold, no… sell
How dumb are sharemarkets. It was all ‘This is 1987 again’ on Monday. By Friday, markets were bouncing back and the fear was a mis-read.
This week it’s like it never happened.
Here’s my advice: buy and hold and if you must use the internet look at pretty pictures on Instagram.
