No, you don't.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.
If you want to go far, go together.

Doing something you love does not make you immune from mental illness.

Comments like this show that the community, as a whole, still need educating on the subject.

Exactly what I was saying Booney, thank you, I'm glad someone else understands.
Mental illness doesn't take prisoners or care about what people's jobs are but it can be treated better if people have jobs with better support networks. Spot on. Exactly what I said:

I can't remember the last time you responded in a mature way to anything on here
Don't take life too serious Benny!
Whilst the current topic of discussion is a sensitive one and should be treated that way, the rest of the discussions on here need to be taken light heartedly as I'm sure they are meant!
Most people post on here to extract the urine and have a laugh.
There are no stupid questions, just stupid people.

So you've seen everything have you?
Yep
Have you ever seen a man eat his own head?
No
Well you haven't seen everything then have you.

Vickery arrested now.

Is it true that it's because he extorted Hawthorn to get a contract or is that a p155 take

Sounds like he was owed money and used King to get it back, if someone owed me $100k I would use any means I could

If not sold out, probably about 35-40 to stand on the hill I would think

Ensure you keep the noise to a minimum. Mavis and Hurtle often forget to turn their hearing aids down so like their theatre on the quiet side.

Vickery's now been let go, but King was charged with threats to kill, making threats to kill, two counts of threats to inflict serious injury and two counts of using a carriage service to harass. Very interesting, pretty serious charges there for the Push-Up King.
Even though the cops couldn't help, there were probably better ways to retrieve the disputed moneys rather than enlisting the help of organised crims. I mean, at least give Mick Gatto a call first, he's a professional negotiator!
