Thread: I've always wondered.

For sure the fares will be going up, even if Tassie wanders north with the big island.

Provided it does, but if The Apple Isle runs aground on the Continental Shelf then the Ferry Operators will want you to pay more because she will have to travel further until such time that it breaks free & catches up, but they won't like that as it will mean dropping the fares again to catch up to you in Brisvegas & then up they will go again.




Maybe I'm the only one here that can see the simple logic?

One of my father's old buddies reckoned if he ever came into money he would spend most of it on "****, molls, and racehorses." The remainder he would just waste.

I do know a family at Wynnum who won a bit over $2,000,000 on the Gold Lotto an were back on the bones of their asses in 18 months.

I know someone that was given $1M on turning 21 by her family in the early 80's.
Highly intelligent, classically educated, old money Australian family.
She had partied it away in 18 months.

She hated he mother and would do whatever she could to **** her off.

I know a tightarse with old money, he's still got the first zac he ever earned.

Doesn't the Tasmanian Government subsidise the ferry fares to encourage visitors?

How much is a Zac worth in dollars?

I know a Zac used to be six pence, but inflation must have changed that a lot.
