The pre-recorded UK interview of Tucker Carlson by Russell Brand, replayed today on Rumble, is worth keeping on file. Subjects: democracy, our relationship with the fascists of the current human ruling class, war’s role in uglifying architecture and the future of journalism.
Between the “Voice” and the new “Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act” , the community here is very divided. “Reconciliation?’ What’s that?
I was reading up on the Govt inflicted urban slum policies yesterday when I saw a fascinating commentary about Krushchev’s solution to the Moscow housing crisis. He made it one of his signature policies once he had killed off his opposition.
The story went that he gathered up the Moscow apparatchiks and with the usual commo incentive package, directed them to solve the problem within two years.
They did.
Hundreds of five story walkups with communal bathing and cooking facilities located conveniently on the ground floor. They forgot laundry, but that was ignored.
It was claimed that the nightmare conditions were a major contributor to Moscow’s out of control alcoholism.
Don’t tell Dan.

They’re a f’cking huge problem. They’re daughters didn’t have enough kids so now they’re off trying to be grandmother to a whole nation.
Well said!
I never knew water proofing was a trade tbh.
It’s a Sub Trade, there’s not much to it, you paint the gunk on the clean dry substrate evenly with a brush or roller, that’s it.
Problems arise because Waterproofers are extremely busy, they can’t hang around for 6-12 hours making sure that the Tilers don’t start work before the membrane is cured.
Waterproofers learned the hard way with footings.
Lately, they require a photo of the protection over the walls and footings immediately berfore it’s backfilled, or they won’t guarantee it.
I was interested to see that a by-election is coming. I am thinking a nice banner held on freeway footbridges:
might help ease my feelings a bit.
The only problem with that is that someone might think I approve of the Liberal Party.

Top comment Cassie.
And this paragraph highlights their moral cowardice.
If they truly wanted to try and convince the unwashed masses to vote Yes they’d venture out of their safe havens, but no, that would require a little bit of more courage of their convictions.

Ask most Australian crickit fans who the biggest bunny in International cricket was/is and they will cite Saffy batterer Daryl Cullinan, the perennial victim of Shane Warne.
Warne dismissed Cullinan 12 times.
As you say, Broad has knocked over the cheating midget houso ranga (CMHR) 17 times.
When BoM predicts weather more than seven days ahead, it is using ideology, not climate physics, so almost all of it is wrong. BoM’s 2023 winter forecast was laughable as it was full of religious hope that the human race is evil.

Testing the waters.
Had a chat on Friday with two uni kids who are in the vineyard with me.
“What about Voice, you voting Yes or No?”
-“Yeah to be honest I don’t know anything about the details and I don’t understand what it actually is meant to be.”
“Details, schmetails- voting on principle, Yes or No?”
-“Ah yeah well I don’t even know what the principles of it are.”
“I mean according to your principles, you Gen Y pansy”
…some consolation that they’re not enrolled to vote yet. One doofus even said that he’s got a tax file number and a medicare card, so he’ll be allowed to vote yeah? Yeah nah sport, for the meantime at least you’ll have to register with your residential address so you’re pinned to a state and a federal electorate. Race based voting rights and biometric hanging chads coming before long I suppose.
The difference is that Daryl Cullinan only played 8 Tests against Warne and faced perhaps 200 balls.
Davey has plaued 30 Tests against Broad, faced perhaps 2,000 balls.
Their careers have more or less paralleled, it’s just the Law of Averages.
Midday mutt
Standing offer, a carton of red and white and a block of Emu Ex for any Cat who could dispatch one of these pups to me…
You a winemaker, Wally?
The Campbell Park offices (Defence) in Canberra leaked through the roof (and probably elsewhere) for years after construction was supposedly completed.
Just read the Tina Arena profile in the Oz magazine.
Dunno if she’s half crazy or a half decent bird.
Seems like she realises she’s been screwed over every which way by the professionals in her life.
Mate in green told me his desk in Sydney got a football-sized hailstone on it one year. Obvious waterproofing fail.
The Poofia have always had it in for Davey, is it because he didn’t attend the Academy of Sport?
I’d say faulty tower in Sydney takes the prize. It partially collapsed and had to be evacuated.
Fawlty Towers?
You a winemaker, Wally?
How very dare you, ML… I’m a farmer.
I must say that while jen psaki had a very punchable face the current skank spewing lies about the biden shit stain family, karine, rhymes with urine, jean-pierre, has a face a sledge hammer should be involved with.
I think that is very harsh. She has a very, very pretty face, and would make a lovely role model – in plastic at 1/8 scale. And that would be far more truthful than her present employment.
I have long made a point of recognising, when wine tasting (and at vineyards not so large that they employ staff just for the cellar door like retail) is to appreciate that most of the time they are farmers.
They don’t spend their time standing around sipping their product with ever more extravagant adjectives to describe their wine rising and bursting like champagne bubbles.
They are farmers. They worry about weather, irrigation, insects, wages, suppliers, and so on.
Karine Jeanne-Pierrrererrr is a doll. But she’s aging quickly, and badly too. Like Brittany, Like St Jacinda, all of them are like Dorian Grey out in the harsh light of day all along…
The last one looked like a Raggedy Ann doll.
I’m lucky to have a longstanding winemaker, who buys half my grapes and brokers the other half- on average, as varieties go swinging in and out of hotness. I’m also lucky to have some good vines on a good terroir. Many vine farmers have been sunk after being caught with unloved, or badly overworked, patches, even if it’s only one patch out of many.
Frinstance, I got in a contractor to remove 5 hectares which i’d been banging my head against for a damn decade… $4500/Ha. Big slug of money to get a boggy paddock back just in time for July, tho I did effectively reclaim $20 000 worth of posts, which will be repairs and replacements for a few years.
Bespoke is in that game I think?
Is this new Heritage Legislation likely to affect you?
LOL. Just heard Bowen speak for the first time. I thought Sleazy spoke with a bag of dicks in his mouth. This turd is 10 x worse.
She’s also a carpet-muncher.
Razey,
when Bowen speaks, he reminds me of the blokes that used to hang around Central Station who would open their coats and pull up their sleeves, their chests and arms crowded with cheap watches, and mutter out of the side of their mouth, “psst, wanna buy a watch?”
The only difference is, Turtlehead speaks out of both sides of his chicken bum mouth.
She’s also a carpet-muncher.
Or so I am led to believe!
According to Sheridan or Kelly,can’t be bothered rereading Albanese is the most articulate proponent of the Voice.
Words fail.
Well, tonight is a 2019 Calabria “Saint Petri” Shiraz Carignan.
Unfortunately I do not know the proportion of Carignan, but it will be fun to see the effect.
Perhaps they will discover Pascoean viniculture.
Then it will be “all you wine is belong to us.”
“Turtlehead” is a Class A moron. He is a failed politician. He has no runs on any political board. The lowest of life-forms have superior functioning brains than Blackout Bowen. If he was my pet, I’d put him to sleep for his own good.
Goodness gracious me. I’m surprised he was able to get one anywhere in Great Britain:

Malicious compliance, good and hard!
And that is what should happen across the State, Wally. No fence-sitters.
Cassie has summed up the Wentworth pathology perfectly.
I remember when a journalist asked Princess Allegra during the election campaign for her views in housing affordability. The answer, she said, was not restricting negative gearing (this is Wentworth, after all). No, it was higher density – but not in Wentworth!
Those rednecks, bogans, wogs and other third-world peasants in the Western suburbs want (shock-horror) backyards for their disgusting prole spawn to play in? How dare they?
Remember too that suspender belt is a lieboral pardy scion which tells you at about what their real attitude is.
The peasantry, in this part of the world, are being urged to embrace the Noongar connection to country, and all work together to protect and preserve its ancient cultural heritage…
Collectivists were always in favour of “meritocracy”, until they suddenly were not.
Some pompous self important stupid pommy dinosaur (BIRM) wrote a “groundbreaking piece” back in the seventies (?) about why meritocracy was a very bad thing and the triumph of mediocrity was the only solution.
And here we are. Staggering mediocrity everywhere.
Consequently, we now exist in a Mediocricy, AKA an Idiocracy or a Kakistocracy.
Enjoyable, it is not.
I feel like there’s something I’m missing about this.
BTW, no prizes for guessing why collectivists suddenly realised meritocracy was a very bad thing.
It’s going to be an exercise in silent protest – it’s a bloody stupid game, we don’t make the rules, but just go along….

Well, here are two comments of mine rejected on the Australian.
I seem to have trodden on some very sensitive little ‘woke’ toes on this issue. How dare I speak such heresy in their university tutorial, otherwise known as The Australian moderating team. In particular, how heretical to suggest that school libraries could carry some information about the deleterious effects of cross-sex hormones and the fact the many teens end up detransitioning with their health ruined. Can’t let the other side speak. This is just like the No vote for the Voice. Just shuttup.
Maybe, but why do the references say it started in reconstruction in the 1950s?

The archbish is obviously new to York Minster. If he were not he might remember the incident in the mid-1980s, when a new bish of Durham was due to be consecrated in York Minster. The candidate was, in the words of Yes Prime Minister, a “modernist”, who rejected belief in the Resurrection.
A week before the consecration was due to occur, lightning struck York Minster. The cartoonists had a field day, with many references to phrases like “Waddya mean, it’s next week?”, and “Missed him by that much”.
The archbish might need to watch his step.
Inflation has jumped a lot of ‘pretty good’ cars over the line into that bracket.
And a lot of corporate people have still to resume their hectic overseas travel schedules since covid, so have spending power.
Try getting your hands on a $120k Landcruiser. Unlike Covid, we aren’t in this together.
My ol’ man was the most civilised man I’ve ever known. A WW2 veteran who served with distinction in New Guinea. A true Patriarch. Very, very gruff, didn’t suffer fools gladly and was an unrepentant Catholic capitalist. Looked like Field Marshal von Manstein. Loved driving around in his Mercedes with a “taxation is theft” sticker prominently displayed in the rear window. Fifty years old when I was born. His best mate was a Rabbi. Loved his grandkiddies more than anything in his life, especially once his beloved woife had left this earthly existence.
We will never see his like again.

Climate Change Lockdowns Are Coming?
QUESTION: There has been talk that Trudeau will use the fires to claim a climate crisis, and that will justify lockdowns again. Is there any truth to these rumors?
FS
ANSWER: There is definitely the idea of using climate change to justify lockdowns. However, this is really not for climate change but for crowd control. They are well aware of the rising discontent civilly, which historically produces revolution. They are pushing for world war III for two reasons.
First, it will be the excuse to default on all sovereign debt as they are also attracted to the Schwab-Soros solution of a one-world government. If that is the case, then all previous sovereign debt will be null and void. The United States did that with the debt of the Continental Congress when they created the United States. That’s why you can collect the revolutionary currency that was never honored.
Secondly, they fear revolution is in the wind. In order to prevent that from taking place, they need to restrict all travel, censor social media, and lock us down using climate change as the excuse.
You may not know it, but at the Paris climate summit, they REFUSED to allow anyone to testify who disputed their agenda. That was the start of this Cancel Culture. The Guardian published the truth, perhaps ahead of schedule. There are those pushing for lockdowns every two years to meet the Paris requirement of ZERO CO2. Everyone’s future is to change, and they never ONCE allowed anyone to ever vote on this agenda. These people understand that civil unrest is on the rise. They desperately need a diversion. Russia is providing that for now.
Will people support this war against Russia and draft people to go to Ukraine? Will that be the turning point? Are you willing to send your children or yourself to fight for Ukraine over the Donbas, which is the home to Russians, not Ukrainians, for hundreds of years when it does not impact our lives? They know there will be resistance. If it is too great, you will suddenly see the need for climate change lockdowns.”

Now there’s a month wait for final 3 episodes as they re-edit to send him out with at least some dignity.

King Billy was Louis Beers. I used to know him.
For many years an elderly friend and his wife lived in a housing commission home in a very expensive inner suburb of Sydney. Next door lived a couple of spinsters of the labrys variety with whom he’d had a rather nasty falling-out. Not long after it came to pass they put their house up for sale. He being of the waterfront wharfie variety thought I’ll fix their little red wagon a went up to the local school (being inner west and all) and pinched their black/red/yellow flag and hoist it up his flagpole. With the desired effect. Hmmmmm hypocrisy thy name be woke, methinks.
Mate of mine got Watts to do some advertising for him. He wouldn’t do it until he was satisfied my mate wasn’t making unfounded claims in his advertising.
Always good for a laugh.

“The number of people belonging to the Church of England and other Anglican denominations in Britain has halved in less than two decades. And they wonder why.”
Meanwhile the conservative Anglican splinter group, the Global Anglican Future Conference (GAFCON) is growing.

I was watching the wonderful Laurence Fox the other day and he said that “wokeism” is the ultimate solvent. Once this pernicious, sinister, destructive, malignant, toxic and evil ideology takes root in organisations, corporations, societies and so on, it destroys everything in its path. I think Fox’s description is apt, and it’s destroying the West.
I don’t normally subscribe to conspiracy theories, but I’m coming to the conclusion that the Voice is nothing more then an exercise in rendering this country ungovernable, should the voters ever have the temerity to elect a Liberal Government.

I am reading a copy of a book called “Failures of Command” by one Hugh Poate, the father of an Australian soldier killed by a supposed allied Afghan soldier.
I know next to nothing of military matters, and I make a heap of allowances for the anger and bitterness of a grieving father but this book has to be one of the most bile filled hate fests against the ADF I have ever had the misfortune to read.
Any military Cats seen this book? I would be interested in your opinions.
Lizzie it is the references in the article to how medical authorities in some European countries are now questioning the standard approach. Sometime ago I knew a backlash was coming but I didn’t expect it to come from Europe. I’m not particularly worried about wokery. It is influential at present but I also think it is at its zenith.

Watched SOUND OF SILENCE, bit surprised it is an actual movie with actors I’d thought, from reading reviews it was a doco .. given the subject matter “great” is not the word for it and being based on a true story it, basically, skimmed what must have been needed to achieve the end result(s) .. you get more of an idea from the written epilogue at the end than the movie itself ….
still, very watchable but dun like most drama movies .. if it weren’t for the, politicised, publicity it’d be more recognizable as one of those Liam Neeson TAKEN efforts … 7/10

Calvin Robinson is Free Church of England. He joined them after he was refused ordination in the Church of England.
Not part of GAFCON because they haven’t been part of the Anglican Communion for more than a hundred years, unlike the GAFCON churches, which only formally separated from Caterbury this year.
And he’s a deacon, not a rector; an assistant to a rector.
Carry on.
Not just the high command. I know of an instance where a junior officer removed an electrical lockout tag so he could do his washing, and tried to blame a digger, as an example.

“Failures Of Commmand”……….from Newsouth Books Site.
On 29 August 2012 Private Robert Poate, Lance Corporal Rick Milosevic and Sapper James Martin were killed during an insider – or green on blue – attack in Afghanistan. Their killer, a supposed ally, was a Taliban sleeper in the ranks of the Afghan National Army. Information provided to the families by rank-and-file soldiers after the event shocked them. And the heavily redacted internal investigation report excluded a plethora of potentially incriminating facts.
This powerful book is the result of a father’s quest to find out the truth behind the death of his soldier son. Hugh Poate’s search reveals a labyrinth of excuses, denials, half-truths, cover-ups, contrived secrecy, incompetence, negligence, orders not followed, and lessons not learnt.
Compelling and enraging, this story of the disturbing facts surrounding the devastating loss of three soldiers continues to reverberate beyond their families to the highest levels of the Australian Defence Force and Government.

Old bloke in a job interview is asked by HR what his worst attribute is.

The Iman of his local mosque had sworn an oath on the Quran that their killer was a loyal Afghani.
“Turtlehead” is a Class A moron. He is a failed politician. He has no runs on any political board. The lowest of life-forms have superior functioning brains than Blackout Bowen. If he was my pet, I’d put him to sleep for his own good.
He became a”bagman” for the drug money super top-ups for State & local politics when this Wetherill Park “houso” estate replaced Cabramatta as the drug capital of SE Sydney .. he”ll have kept his notes handy for whenever anyone tries to topple him .. unfortunately, McMahon is a job for life, Labor fiefdom, tho he’ll never be PM material cos like Tanya he has association problems .. his being, his maaate, Phong Ngo, convicted murderer ….

Are these vehicles fully fueled when loading on ships? Some has to be in the tanks for sure. Spontaneous car fire is relatively rare when engine is not running, as far as I know.
Very little fuel is in a vehicle for transport. But, there will be some – initially fuelled with perhaps 5-6 litres or so. Enough to drive it out of the manufacturer’s production area, into the holding area, onto a truck, into a ship, off the ship, onto another truck…….you get the idea.
As for fires, yes. Cars can/do catch fire without the vehicle’s ignition being turned on but this is very rare. It requires a leaking fuel line or other combustible fluid and an ignition source such as a significant wiring fault. It could be started by a faulty battery (standard car battery, not EV) which initiated sufficient under-bonnet heat that eventually precipitated a wiring overload leading to a small fire that eventually ruptured a fuel line……. there are a number of possibilities which could be likened to a ‘Swiss cheese scenario’.
(of course, it could just be somebody having a smoko in the holding deck and didn’t notice a small puddle of fuel under a car…..)
EVs are different matter. I don’t know what additional precautions the carriers impose to transport them but that will be a big issue in the future. If a fire in one Tesla ignited the adjacent Tesla, then the one adjacent to that, etc……..a boatload of burning Teslas would probably be enough to sink the ship.
Oh yeah, stalker. Coming from the nasty worm who even doxxes people’s spouses. We know it was you, you pathetic little zero.
Works both ways.
In any event, Liz never accused you of stalking, or did she?
Nooooooooooo,
Fiona Macdonald has been diagnosed with Motor Neurone.
I believe most of us here would have grown up with Fiona on our television screens.
A real Lady.
Heart of US economy moves SOUTH: Six states in the sunbelt now contribute more to the national GDP than perennial powerhouse the Northeast after $100b ‘wealth migration’
For the US political geography challenged, those would be solidly Rep (blue) states thrashing the Dem (red) states. An unsurprising result of the productive bailing out of places that steal their money and taking their cash with them.
I don’t normally subscribe to conspiracy theories, but I’m coming to the conclusion that the Voice is nothing more then an exercise in rendering this country ungovernable, should the voters ever have the temerity to elect a Liberal Government.
They probably worked on the principle that they had no probs sooking NDIS on Tones & the, soon to be governing, Libs, in general, so the VOICE would be easier given they only have to convince ……. the vote-herd …….!
Yes,
You don’t know shit about military service, let alone service in a war zone or peacekeeping operation.
Carry on and double away smartly
We flew into Newark when the fire was supposed to have started. Never saw it though. I’ve flown in and out of Newark lots of times but never realised until now the seaport is literally next to the airport. Huh.
Zat, the other day, there was talk on the news UPS workers were about to strike. It was reported UPS delivers around 7% of US GDP. That’s massive.
You don’t know shit about military service,
I know that you were too dumb to get a job anywhere else.
let alone service in a war zone or peacekeeping operation.
You know why the had Conscription?
Because dopes like you are too useless to find your dick in the dark.
Oops. I wrote 5-6 litres. 3 (maybe 4 litres depending on vehicle) would be closer. Car manufacturer’s don’t want to give away too much fuel. By the time the car eventually arrives at the vehicle dealership, it’s got less than 2 litres in it.
The dealership will only put in a bit. Which is why, when you go to pick up your new car (having paid many tens of thousands of dollars), it will often have less than a quarter of a tank.
On the subject of waterproofing.
It could be a TAFE Cert IV course but AFAIK it isn’t a separate trade as such.
Normally the “associated trade” does it.
Roofing? Roof plumber.
Showers and bathrooms? Plumber or tiler. I prefer tiler because he is responsible for waterproofing, tile glues, grouting and silicone.
One bum to kick.
That is in small domestic jobs, anyway.
I think the problem in large developments, if there is no trade or certification requirement, they will get some unskilled labourer to do it on the cheap, hoping it holds up for the guarantee period.
Enclosed balconies sitting above living areas on the floor below are the big problem in my experience.
Some dealers now give you a full tank when you take delivery- a nice gesture.
You really do know stuff all about the military.

Yep. UPS employees and their union, the Teamsters, walked away from the table on the 5th. It appears to me that UPS management think they have the upper hand. I don’t think so.
It will slam the economy and leave FedEx the only real player in the market until they sort it out. So buy FedEx stock and hope for the best I guess.
Crotchless not his usual urbane self tonight.

Ooops. Speaking of politically geographically challenged…. I got it backwards.
Red states = Republican
Blue states = Democrats
Meaning, they can’t find a buyer.
As Ace suggests, the only idiots who would are Disney and they’ve losing millions on a daily basis.
And folks think Fox has issues. 🙂
Also, on the subject of Disney and connecting the woke dots. We’ve been focusing on the beating Bud has received for being woke, but Disney is also a standout with people refusing to see their terrible movies.

Wrong, as usual.
Doesn’t matter who ends up applying the membrane, if the Waterproofer doesn’t have photographic evidence, he won’t guarantee the work.
If he doesn’t guarantee the work, the building can’t be certified.
Butthole you penis
HomoErotic fantasies, eh?
That didn’t take long.
I have no doubt.
I remember a customer/chippie working on the apartment complex going up behind my shop telling me the Chinese plastering crew were watching a video on how to plastering before they started work.
Highly trained professionals they were not.
Not requiring qualified tradesmen is an invitation to corner cutting.

To give Queensland schoolteachers something to complain about on this blog?
Hero.
Roofing? Roof plumber.
Have a plumber in the family. Victorian based too. As far as I know & I’d have to ask him , you need a plumber to sign off on a roof or drainage.
“Calvin Robinson is Free Church of England. He joined them after he was refused ordination in the Church of England.”
Thanks, had no idea there was a difference..
Not part of GAFCON because they haven’t been part of the Anglican Communion for more than a hundred years, unlike the GAFCON churches, which only formally separated from Caterbury this year.
Thanks, although my points still stands that the CoE is sadly on the way down the gurglar, or would you disagree?
.
And he’s a deacon, not a rector; an assistant to a rector.
Oh okay, deacon scheacon, rector shmector!
Are these theological differences between GAFCON, the free church and the CoE?

One more depressing comment before I revert to cute owls and Doris Day:
WAYNE ROOT: President Trump, This Time One Rule: “No More Mr. Nice Guy. No Mercy.”
First comment states the obvious:
You think Democrats are just playing politics?
– Does 8 straight weeks of sanctioned, funded, defended, celebrated and condoned deadly violent racist BLM terrorism at your peril and safety in 2020 sound like ‘just politics’ to you?
– Does a treasonous intentional open southern border to radically, rapidly, and PERMANENTLY change the demographics in America sound like ‘just politics’ to you?
– Do treasonous attempts to get rid of a duly elected President Trump year after year after year sound like ‘just politics’ to you?
– Does intentionally getting involved and escalating a foreign war in the Ukraine by committing war crimes intentionally that could lead to a world war sound like ‘just politics’ to you?
– Does open racism, discrimination, disenfranchisement, and unconstitutional infringement of white conservatives in America sound like ‘just politics’ to you?
– Does Defund The Police at your peril sound like ‘just politics’ to you?
– Does intentional useless yet very harmful and deadly unconstitutional covid mandates with the threat of arrest, job loss, disenfranchisement and death sound like ‘just politics’ to you?
– Does intentionally opening the southern border for a 3rd world invasion while you were unconstitutionally locked down in your own home by Democrats back in 2021 sound like ‘just politics’ to you?
– Does intentionally caused raging inflation that’s destroying the middle class across the western world sound like ‘just politics’ to you?
– Does colluding with big tech to silence conservatives 1st amendment rights so they can’t be heard or seen sound like ‘just politics’ to you?
– Does intentional unconstitutional bias and persecution of conservatives but not democrats by the federal government sound like ‘just politics’ to you?
– Does forced untested harmful vaccines sound like ‘just politics’ to you?
City Journal looks like a great read. I’ve bookmarked many articles which have been pitched in here over the years, including an excellent long number or state housing.
Any Cats have the dead tree version delivered? Does it carry all the content which is given away for free on the interwebs? Subscription is pretty cheap, all in all, tho only quarterly editions.
They are now in a world of pain.
It doesn’t matter if they re-make “Little House on the Prairie” in the original saccharine-sweet form. People have totally switched off. Most won’t even bother having a look and many who do will be looking for the slightest woke reference, even inadvertent.
We had severe problems with waterproofing/ membrane issues about a decade ago. There were three attempts before the leaks stopped. The first two idiots were fully qualified too. Building/ construction has become far more complex than many decades ago because of the much larger choices of materials that can be used. Also, you’re not really dealing with an abundance of intellectual heft in the building trades. My estimate is that two thirds are halfwits.
“Alice? Who the #### is Alice?”
So how is it, sh1tfer, that photographically confirmed, certified, buildings have leakage problems?
Stick to moisturising skin suits, it doesn’t matter if there is some leakage.
Yeah, I’m not totally sure of the latest waterproofing certification requirements, but I think balconies tend to slide under the radar.
“They are now in a world of pain.”
Yep, all self-inflicted.
Mother will not be pleased. And we know what that means.

The users think they are hip and contemporary, but in reality are perpetuating rudeness.
The original membrane on our place was apparently some French product. The stuff is supposed to work well if the moron applying it follows instructions. Of course they didn’t.
The next moron, who we got to repair the problem, applied some fibre-glass product over the top as a new layer. It didn’t work because it “shrunk” and made things worse because the shrinking of the newer, top layer took the second layer with it.
Finally, we had someone who chiselled out the entire abortion from one side to the other (thereby costing a fortune) smoothed it all out and re-layered the new membrane properly.
2/3’s vs 1/3
listen to you clowns … building experts one and all
Sancho and JC’s soggy biscuit routine now has an explanation.
2/3 is a fair estimate.
Add to that, 20-30% of Project Managers/Site Managers are Psychopaths.
Saw a section of wall, 30 M. x 2.4, backfilled last year, no membrane, no protection, plumber had already installed his pipes.
The reason?
Project Manager: “I don’t give a F…! I’ve got scaffolders starting tomorrow.”
