Statistics is an evaluation of a set of values-no more no less...The collation of values is solely dependent upon subject matter...The Subject Matter and values contained within the investigation of the subject matter is where Statistics becomes manipulative...Cheers.

Exactly John,a very Sad and Ugly situation.My wife a Nurse in Aged Care for 22 years sees this horror year in year out...Dad passes on,they put Mum in a nursing Home...The Family contents go to Landfill...and they are now free to cash in on the Equity of the Family property...What xxxxxx off my wife is the Family might visit once or twice a Year....Not Good.

ausfire,G'day Mate...Howdy from Aspendale,regards Peter.

19 photos, warning photo heavy. IT FOLLOWED ME HOME TOO....This is a very Sad story.As Sad as the story is true.I was working Casual for a mate (now deceased) who bought household Lots....Deceased Estates-Separations-Moving-Down Sizing....He was interested in Furniture-Jewellery-Collectables-Cars and so on...In terms of his business Grandads tools in the shed were useless time wasters...The Metal Merchant would not take anything with wood on it,so it would be separated into a skip and then plain metal into another skip for the Metal Merchant-He now has a worker off other duties and 2 skips taking up room in the yard...To employ someone to remove the wood to add the tools to the metal skip went like this-Wages+Insurance+Taxes/Duties/Charges+Sick leave+Holiday Pay+Overtime-what he gets from the Metal Merchant=the tip fee is cheaper...Grandads tools go to landfill....Taking the plain steel away simply becomes time wasting..He gets his workers back,his yard space back...The more I took away the more Tip space he had available.So all this Vintage gear Followed me home-Several Tons of it.All I had to do was clean it up and that's what I'm doing in My Retirement.The stuff I've seen go to lasndfill is Frightening....These Pics are a minuscule amount but good cross section of what I have....But the bottom line is This is a Sad Story.

Howdy caotropheus,a very relevant question of our times....(sometimes you are on a Winner)...Normally I would travel to the Junk shop 1st and then to my daughters as the daughter lives closer to me.For no particular reason I went to the daughters 1st and discovered with this virus lock down and reduced working hours she was a little short on running money. So I put $200. in her hand (that's a winner) then when I left headed to the junk shop a little lighter...( I do not use plastic only COD)...Now a little short for the VISE -I liked the idea of doing up the Drill Press...guaranteed I will pick up the post vise in the next couple of days....All a sign of the times....Regards peter...I'll post some pics later.

When I was out and about today I spied with my little eye a 40" v.h. post vise with an 18" spread from outer jaw closed to post...I'll be going back tomorrow with some cash...Appears it might need some Loving...sounds good to Me...Cheers Peter.
