bye ank

4:52 am

how are you going Andree - time for me to get Licety I think - still got 78 to find and can't see any for looking!

4:55 am

Andree

I have 107 left, went to the list a while ago

4:55 am

Eva

Good morning everyone. 95 left and stuck. Not ready for the list yet.

4:56 am

Andree

trying to finish as I have a full day tomorrow

4:56 am

Eva

I could use a few more hours of sleep.

4:56 am

lynxxx

I'm the same Andree - going to work v early so need to finish tonite - hopefully

4:57 am

Andree

have CGU workers comp audit, can't imagine why they would bother with me, i only employ 4 people

4:57 am

lynxxx

does seem a bit heavy - perhaps they want an easy day!

4:57 am

Andree

and myself

4:59 am

Andree

maybe they get around everyone eventually

5:02 am

Andree

WC is a sore point with me because I have to pay the full 8% on all of us even though only 2 drive trucks, annoying and expensive, maybe I will fall off my chair and hurt myself, lol

5:04 am

lynxxx

I agree it is wrong to apply a flat rate - but I think you can only get different rates if you have above a certain number of employees - ? 8% is a bit of a killer too!

5:06 am

Andree

its because I am in the skip bin business and so all kind of stuff is dealt with including asbestos

5:07 am

Andree

which doesn't address the fact that 3 of us only do office work

5:08 am

lynxxx

I knew what business you were in - hopefully your prices cover all the costs and some. I'll never complain about skip prices again - not that I did anyway!

5:09 am

Ka&Ba

Do I understand you correctly to mean that asbestos may simply be removed and placed in a bin?

5:12 am

lynxxx

I am sure not K&B - we are more than a litle aware in Australia of asbestos dangers. to say the least!

5:12 am

Andree

yes ka, we have to know if it is going in bin, customer has to line bin w/plasic and tape it down, on pick up we have to make a booking at the tip beforehand, and ofcourse have to go many miles as so few places take it

5:13 am

Ka&Ba

So, then, you are being penallized for a service few will perform?

5:13 am

Andree

almost all bathroom renovations have asbestos, old sheds garages, still plenty around

5:15 am

Andree

we have a licence to carry asbestos and charge $450 for 2 cubic metres, so the customer suffers too

5:16 am

Andree

the big problem we have are those who don't wan't to pay and hide it with the other rubbish

5:17 am

lynxxx

Workcare levies in Australia are charged to employers based onm the 'dangers' associated with the jobs. Anyone working with machinery for example would have a higher charge than clerical workers. So, in a way it is fair but the costs of that workcare cover can be veeery expensive especially for small business who usually do not have the luxury of being able to charge what they like.

5:17 am

P.J.

good morning everyone

5:18 am

lynxxx

hello hodag

5:18 am

Andree

that is where the danger lies for my drivers as the yhave to reload, the tips have eyes on every load

5:18 am

Ka&Ba

Because of the nature of asbestos, I would expect the anyone who handles it has to have proper safeguards, i.e., clothing and equipment, and I further suppose Workcare is concerned that a driver that comes into the office may contaminate office personnel?

5:18 am

P.J.

hi lynxxx

5:20 am

Andree

asbestos is really only unsafe if not disposed of properly and ofcourse for those who initially made it

5:20 am

Andree

hi hodag

5:21 am

P.J.

hi ya Andree

5:21 am

Andree

my drivers are basically not supposed to come in contact

5:23 am

Merk

Good morning, all. I'm going to attempt to today, but for something different, I started with the 'st' words. They popped up and intrigued me as soon as I opened the grid.

5:23 am

Ka&Ba

Good luck today, Andree. Your point of contention seems logical.

5:23 am

Andree

10:25 am

72 Temple Owl

and debating whether or not to rake leaves

10:25 am

Frances

melon I love Marmite

10:25 am

pam

Raked yesterday, would prefer shopping, LOL

10:25 am

evanonut

leaf raking is a noble pastime

10:25 am

pam

What is marmite?

10:26 am

chj

its a yeast extract like vegamite

10:26 am

72 Temple Owl

shopped ALL DAY friday....

10:26 am

Frances

pam
Marmite is a yeast spread - very savoury and yummy

10:26 am

pam

oh

10:26 am

chj

usually on;ly seen in the uk

10:26 am

cybernan

the second an 6/18, please?

10:26 am

melonheadjujube

Marmite is like Vegemite, if that's any help. It has the texture of thick motor oil, & tastes like the demon offspring of anchovies & Guiness Stout, yet one gets strangely hooked on it. Good source of b vitamins.

10:27 am

evanonut

okay, time to light the ole woodburner

10:27 am

pam

well, the b vitamins sound good and i like anchovies, but somehow, it's not working for me...

10:27 am

72 Temple Owl

melon- it sounds like something cats would love. they like yeast extract

10:27 am

melonheadjujube

Marmite is extremely good when spread over hot, hot, bittery toast, but i had to lay off the butter [sigh]

10:28 am

melonheadjujube

it's very salty, TO - is that OK for cats?

10:28 am

Frances

Marmite on toast - I need some now

10:28 am

melonheadjujube

buttery, not bittery!

10:28 am

TrickyRic

bovril so much nicer than marmite

10:28 am

Bash

Marmite on sourdough toast....YUM!

10:28 am

melonheadjujube

never heard of bovril, which sounds well, bovine...

10:28 am

Frances

Bovril is a beef extract

10:29 am

TrickyRic

its meant to be a drink, but just as nice on toast

10:29 am

chj

i had the exterminator come in to get rid of all the marmites....they were eating my furniture

10:29 am

72 Temple Owl

i have an upset stomach...

10:29 am

melonheadjujube

sounds hearty, but I keep kosher, which it most probably is not.

10:29 am

carp

Marmite makes a nice drink when melted in boiling water and drunk hot. Good for flavouring gravy as well!

10:29 am

Bash

bovril is now FAKE beef extract. THey made a formula change so it can be used by vegans.

10:29 am

cybernan

the second an 6/18, please?

10:30 am

Bash

a british friend laments that it just isn't the same...

10:30 am

carp

Cheese and marmite sandwiches are the best.

10:30 am

melonheadjujube

ahhh, grey W & B so far

10:30 am

Frances

Oh yum carp - strong cheddar

10:30 am

melonheadjujube

wow - a whole marmite club here!

10:30 am

carp

agreed

10:30 am

Bash

seriously strong cheddar. Yummy!

10:31 am

melonheadjujube

ah, bash, then i shall try if I can find here in Cleveland

10:31 am

MVA

try peanut butter and marmite sandwiches!!

10:31 am

Frances

Marmite is something you either love or hate - no middle ground!

10:31 am

chj

i had vinegar on french fries for the first time last week

10:31 am

Angelakk

cybernan, I don't have that one yet, sorry

10:31 am

Jacula

Hi everyone. I've been sitting here for some time reading the chatlog aloud to my other half. I love Marmite but he hates it. Tee, hee!

10:31 am

melonheadjujube

oh, thanks, pam, i just saw your "good luck" - will report back.

10:32 am

Bash

I think there are "i love marmite dot com" and "i hate marmite dot com" web sites. :)

10:32 am

Angelakk

and melon, if you have a Cost Plus World Market, check there. They usually carry both marmite and vegemite.

10:32 am

Jacula

Bash - Yes, there is.

10:32 am

Anniebrook

I never heard of marmite but will look for it

10:32 am

cybernan

Thanks, angel -- I guess no one else does either (or everyone is too busy chatting!)

10:32 am

10:32 am

Aloyisius

oh boy, fireworks! you all have made me so hungry, I'm going now to rustle up some grub.. see you all tomorrow in BabbleLand! (-:

10:32 am

Bash

both marmite and bovril are great for flavoring. Very handy to have in the pantry.

10:32 am

Frances

Why not?

10:33 am

Jacula

Well done, Aloy.

10:33 am

MVA

10:33 am

melonheadjujube

tx, Angelakk - I read where Vegemite just got banned in US - the folic acid - FDA only allows in products made with flour.

10:33 am

Frances

Bye Aloy. Bye TO

10:33 am

Angelakk

It's not true, check out snopes.com

Jac, I was about 28 at the time, and everyone there was older than that. Plus, there was something about Hank Marvin's son that rubbed me the wrong way. The Quo concert, on the other hand, gave me a headache.

I have everything in my music collection from Gregorian chant to modern rock. I love the swing era, the 60's, the 80's. I don't much care for country, and I can't stand rap.

9:08 pm

Ornith

wow, am I the youngest one in here tonight? or is it just that I'm an American? I know the just-mentioned classic rock, but I haven't heard of anything else people have been mentioning

9:08 pm

Well, orionova, if you give me an e-mail address (that can withstand music files) or a web address I can contact you via, I will try.

Minveryork

Actually, I need the first er 44 word if you have it. I know that it is probably a fish word. I cannot find it!

9:11 pm

Jacula

I'm not sure if the music 'deafness' is due to peer pressure at relevant times of growing up, or not listening to the radio or going out much, or to what US state you may live in, or what part of the world. I think the person who seems to know the least about music past about 1960 is a good friend in NZ.

believe me mrp, a lot of us think he ought to be impeached... and taking our taxes to Iraq is the least of it. trampling all over the constitution is WAY worse.

9:40 pm

Jacula
