H2O members or dentists there to heavily fine.John asked how many cockies were in the audience and why are they concerned about the Rail Trails. He has been wondering what type of exotic crops that the farmers are trying to hide from Rail trail hikers.
Tim Macgillycuddy was accused of bailing to Brisbane to avoid explaining the new Recycling Industry processes and the Mayor was fined for being guilty by association.
John related an experience he had asking Paul Murray for computer help. Paul remotely accessed John's computer and the problem resolution conversation between John and Paul.
