On spot price, it is worth between $150,000 to $160,000.

But with plans to sell the nugget to a collector, the price could be pushed as high as $200,000, according to the prospector, who has nicknamed his precious find the "Tibooburra Spud".

I wonder what the weirdest Bunnings is. I just went past the one in Collingwood, Melb. It’s in an old office plaza. They’ve repainted the building green, but it still looks like the sort of building from the 80s that had too much reflective glass and was filled with insurance brokers and solicitor offices. Not too weird, but it got me thinking.

Department officials rejected the prime minister's claim that a $6 million grant promised to Marrickville Golf Club was meant for fixing sewerage issues.

The prime minister admitted his initial claim to the House of Representatives that the grant was for sewerage fixes was wrong.

I don’t know if we are doing Opposite Day for the giggles, or the selectors are using balls in a bottle to do the selections but this just makes zero sense to me

Made the mistake of enquiring about a gym course at Jetts and now getting spam texts and emails.

Today's email gives a proper working link if you want to sign up for their latest Black Friday offer. If you want to unsubscribe the options shown at the bottom are either a broken link that goes nowhere or one leading to an insecure rubbish site. Worth a referral to ACMA I reckon.

Also recall asking about a clause in their sign-up contract that states they have the right to film clients in the gym and use it for marketing purposes with no opt out provision. The gym franchisee owner assured me that wouldn't happen at her gym. She was trying to convince me she had the authority to override the contract and that her verbal say so would do the trick. Yeah right.

In short:

Labor MP Luke Gosling's breach of bail charge has been dropped by prosecutors during a short hearing in the Darwin Local Court.

Mr Gosling still faces two charges of assaulting the Northern Territory administrator, which he denies.

What's next?

The MP is due to return to court next month for a hearing related to the assault charges.

My rural fire brigade is on its 3rd credit union, and it is constant technical problems. Different problems with each, but always technical - can't generate valid statements, can't send us an email, two-to-sign internet banking authorisation doesn't work. It's a right hassle changing banks and I don't fancy the big 4 with their world destroying investments, but this credit union sector just seems plagued with low function.

Ballina NSW. Stood there staring at it for half an hour. It was completely silent. Ive seen alot of storms but nothing like this.

Hi guys,

This year I want to start wearing a poppy for Remembrance Day. However, I'm getting mixed opinions online as to when it is appropriate to start wearing one. Can anyone chime in for me as to when I should start wearing one? Also, if anyone knows the best places to find one that would be great. I'm Melbourne South-Eastern suburbs based.

Thanks!
