They just don't seem to be a big selling item in that part of the world.

My chippy mate from the GC asked "are only bikini tops sold in Byron?"

That's crap Mike.

I've heard of a few friends of friends dying. I'm I'm shocked at how a very small minority still think it's all a hoax or overblown.

What makes you imply Bunnings is foreign owned? It's part of Wesfarmers, an Australian company Wesfarmers - Wikipedia

For crying out bloody loud, finally got through the Regional road block on Indian Ocean Drive to get some shopping done at Woolies in Yanchep and low and behold no eggs due to panic buying . This bull**** needs to stop , dunny paper , flour , hand sanitizer and now bloody eggs .

Eggs were noticed a few weeks back. A woman was videoed leaving a SM with a Heap of them. Can't recall where it was not here I hasten to add) The question was raised (WTF was she going to do with them?)

Fortunately the bloke who does some slashing here etc has a small Roadside Stall & chooks & supplies us with Henfruit

If stuck, our youngest daughter can supplement googs.


Maybe our SA idiot who wanted to sell dunny paper & sanitiser BACK to where he bought it cos he couldn't re- sell it on E-Bay has cornered the market. If so, just pray that they all go rotten on him & he has to dump them. Couldn't happen to a bigger jerk.
