i lke your positive post gamma. forever the optimist.i like the humour about the blinds.
your probably accurate about people not replying to my posts.Not to worry.Brodies regularly replies and hes known as always being on the money and he mostly agrees with me.And you still reply. One day, if i ever make it to australia, i think i will make a point of looking you up. i reckon you are the type of bloke that i could have good chats with.If that ever happens i can't imagine we would talk about what we talk about on here,lots of wonderful australian things to talk about instead.
by the way,the wife opens every curtain first thing in the morning.When i go for my walks it always surprises me just how many people never do. Most people even seem to keep all their windows closed these days.
The thing is and it is the same as most failing businesses is that those that are in charge, try to cover things up and dont take ownership for its failure!
For example, Duval, Chance Voight directors under statutory management and they stat3 that everything is rosey and no issues and financially fine lol
The same attitude that HRNZ and TAB both have, so we wait and see!
yeah. as you say ,what will be will be ,no matter what you,me or others say.
hrnz have used the entain money to create the impression amongst its stakeholders and investors,that the industry is going much better than of how its actually performing financially and numbers wise..And they have also used it in misdirecting attention from the declining numbers of the likes of horses being bred,those breeding them,licence holder numbers,field size,etc.
Reinforced by selective,clever hrnz spin and the complicit media, is a strategy that clearly is fooling many.
i'm sure,the strategy was done with good intentions,but good intentions won't help pay the bills in years to come.
