Hope the crook gets caught, but not sure the police officer will fare too well out of it either.


Internal Lights Flashing?

Sirens usually just make lots of noise

Either way it sounds like it wasn't the right place to be in pursuit of someone.

Stopping at the shops this morning and the missus walking back out saying "Thanks for cleaning out our expense account, you made me look like an idiot".

I quickly checked the account on the app and noticed two transactions totaling over $400 were made overnight.

After ringing them and being told they can't disclose any info as I'm not "that" card number holder, the wife rang them only to find it was off a card that had been canceled early in June.............it was also cut up into little pieces.

They told her the transaction was made at Woolworths Mawson Lakes yesterday.

No immediate reimbursement, they are investigating!

Pretty handy coming the day before my monthly pay day.

When I've had that with commbank, they have immediately reimbursed pending the outcome of the investigation, and made me agree that I might have to pay it back

They have called back, if anyone is in peoples choice and shop at BWS or Woolworths I'd recommend checking your account, apparently transactions that were made on March 26 have been duplicated overnight, scary.

Not being able to sleep the night before a game of footy that Im coaching, never have any issues with sleeping but Friday nights without fail go to bed and make up 2.30am on the dot and cant get back to sleep. Then the whole weekend is rooted from exhaustion.

Come Summer no issues either, mind ticks over even when asleep I guess.

I had the tv on while making dinner earlier and the first story on tonight's A Current Affair was about this.

It's crap, as soon as my pay went in last night another $240 transaction from Woolies and BWS came out, still not resolved, $640+ so far.

Yep...never had an issue when I was playing, I think because its a morning game and when you do wake up at a normal time you are straight into game mode. Going to try some sleeping tablets this week....its not nerves, Im guessing anxiety of some sort.

Try getting natural ones first mate, they are like horse tablets but just as effective, not addictive though.

I went through some heavy anxiety a few years ago, I once woke up for work on the Monday morning and didn't fall back asleep until Thursday night, stared at the ceiling all night for a few nights, the natural tablets worked a treat after that.

Also got a latex pillow, ended up buying 4 of them, I never knew what a great sleep was until I got one.

I don't drink during the week so Friday night is usually my first beer/grog for at least 4 days so I usually hit it pretty hard at kids footy training then FNF, you would think that would knock me out.

No...i tried...but my shirley temple curls dont like being bunned.
But hoppy beer is great for people who have issues sleeping. Its gotta be better than drugs.
I dont mind the odd hoppy beer every now and then.
The BIL really struggles with sleep. Now with a couple of hoppy beers he sleeps better.
Or Dutchy needs to give up coaching... clearly he is trying to tune in to his inner Brad Scott....
