I refer to Myer as Myers out of a force of habit.
But i would never use the possessive for another other store like Aldi.

Similar to Dan Murphyâs, which has the apostrophe before the âsâ, but many people still call it Dan Murphy.
This is just for trivia night - Canada and Denmark now have a land border.

Iâm not sure I like this, doesnât roll off the tongue very eaaily.
Feels like change for the sake of change, Iâve never heard anyone call the Royal Melbourne Show the Melbourne Royal before. If it gets shortened all Iâve ever encountered has been The Show which doesnât uaually require any further clarificarion.

Did anyone see a shooting star or similar at about 430pm or so? It was sighted in the Pennant Hills area towards the east.
Do I get an award for eating at their fine establishment?

Apologies to the mods if this is not deemed appropriate or posted in wrong thread but just wanted to mention the fact that TV Blackbox is currently looking for new team members to join our publication.
Ideally, this is a job for someone with a keen interest in TV and media issues. The candidate needs to be good at working in a team environment and have availability to work Mon-Fri between 9am-4pm. This is a paid position. Send through a DM if interested.

Found this remix of the 1998 theme of âThe Billâ by Oxide & Neutrino.

Wouldâve loved to see Pendulum produce their own remix of this theme after their successful remix of the ABC News theme in 2010.

I think this is true. I go to a cafe that recently put on a surcharge on tap and go. So sometimes I use cash when I have it. I noticed when the owner takes my money, he doesnât ring it through the cash register. He just pops the money in it.
I think the credit card surcharge is a rort. Itâs ridiculous that businesses can charge whatever they like as a surcharge. Itâs worse when you canât make a purchase from a business with cash or direct debit but they slug you with a surcharge.
There needs to be a government crackdown on this. Itâs in their interest to not allow businesses to charge extra for credit card transactions.
Business cannot charge whatever they like.
Itâs not a thing in the UK, itâs strange itâs allowed at all.
I think youâd be great on TV, do it!
I havenât noticed credit card surcharges in the US either. Presumably small business owners in Oz justify surcharges with some vague excuse about âpenalty ratesâ, but I donât know how large organisations get away with it. Seems to be a uniquely Australian thing.
Didnât it use to be a 50 c fee on purchases over $10 , now itâs a percentage of the cost?
