We get ripped off with the 425ml "pints" in SA

We get double ripped off with those prices
They're catering to their clientele, if there was ever a place to flog $13 pints.

Hendon Hotel at Royal Park Saturday :

Pale 568ml $8
Draught 568ml $8
Super Dry 568ml $8
Bulmers 568ml $8
All tap beer schooners (our pints) $7.50 at the Broken Hill Hotel

Over priced rubbish.

Haven't been in about 18 months, was pretty good when I went. It's a far cry from the West Darling! :lol:

I'll be honest, most places in BH are like this, though. Good word of mouth, and your experience is crap. Dodgy recommendations, and you really enjoy it.

I was there for work over a 12 week period last year and ate there often.
It was hit and miss but it was overpriced every time.

Although everything in Broken Hill was expensive I found.

found the meals there of a good standard, a little more expensive than in the city but FFS you are in the middle of nowhere, so u r going to pay more snitzels are a good size and still only 30 bucks, not much cheaper in some Adelaide pubs i eat at occasionally

You'd always expect to pay more out there, but at least the beers are cheap (and in the correctly named glass, too)

1700 people in Lebanon have registered with DFAT seeking assistance to fly home. They were able to secure 80 seats out of Lebanon today.

Only 35 took up the offer.

I really struggle to purchase a chicken schnitty for over $15. I do realise that you are incorporating the chef' the waiter, the utilities etc but for the price of chicken they must have a fair mark up, come to think of it, I never buy any chicken dish while I'm out because of that reason.

I'm reasonably handy in the kitchen so I am fussy when it comes to eating out anyway, I try and go for something that I'm not great at cooking, I do tend to find something I like at a certain restaurant and get that pretty much every time, except the House of The Red Dragon, I have to get 5-6 dishes and have lunches sorted for the week.

How terrible is the footage? How lucky are we?

How is it in today's modern age that there are places in the world so war torn, isn't there a better solution to resolve differences? No one wins a war.

More of a "How The F***"

Cruising home yesterday down the expressway when I noticed a 3 car chain collision in a 110 zone, like how the actual f*** can that happen?

It was in the right hand lane too.

For the last few months on the NEXY at peak arvo time the exit lanes for Womma Rd and Curtis Rd are that long that cars are lined back for a mile on the actual Expressway and have seen quite a few accidents where drivers not paying attention doing 110 can’t stop quick enough to avoid the stationary cars.

Over a million dollars collected by idiots using their phones.
Even though the locations have been disclosed several times and driver warnings there's still people who can't or won't get the message.

This was at the start of the 110 zone near the salt pans, I know what you're talking about though, it is a bit crazy at times.

I keep my phone out of arm reach, although the message will appear on my centre screen if I prompt it to.
