That's cheap by Aussie prices Thomas, especially the crown which would cost me $2k +.
The price of love for our pets
Including or not including insurance? My price was for a steel crown with ceramic without insurance. Other crowns would be up to 1500€ without insurance cover.
The best paid and pampered dog in rural WA.
Now that's not cheap Thomas.
Not exactly "poorly paid" here in GER but, as you said, the education and training should be acknowledged financially. Their fees were raised noticeably recently.
Mate after plenty of elbow grease the pool is now looking pristine, sparkling and inviting. I may even have a dip this summer. I have found an antidote to the dreaded black algae which pervaded it earlier this year. So with the first sign of this hard to remove pest I now apply a super anti black agae tablet to the area and it is gone within a week. This is new to the market, only wish I'd have had its use years ago, it'd have saved me so much work.Richie Was wondering what happened to your pool disaster some month ago. You said you were upset and sounded as if you wanted to give up, but then you never kept us posted on what you ended up doing. Update, update, please.
Thanks, Craig. As I remember, algae were not the only problem. You were devastated after a thunderstorm had played havoc with your pool, weren't you?
Spring in WA is glorious, the best of the seasons.
I don't think I could handle temps of 31C, I'd be looking for the nearest swimming pool to cool off in!
Yes Thomas that was about 12 months ago now when tonnes of mud and palm tree debris fell into my pool after a ferocious storm. That is what created the black algae. It imbeds itself into the pebble crete, reason it is a nitemare to clean. Mate I'd swap your lovely lake for my pool in a heartbeat.
Yes Terry is Perths elderly 'easy rider'.
Sydney usually has terrible springs and this year is no different. If it is not a beautiful sunny day in mid 20s, it is wet or blowing a gale. No two days the same as you have in summer. Not looking forward to the next four months as heatwaves intermixed with wet periods have been predicted.
That sounds a bit risky to me, Terry. Who will pay for a major operation then, should it be necessary? A heart operation might cost you up to 35,000€, 42,000€ for a skin transplantation, 32,000€ for a chemotherapy, a stent would be 16,000€ , a bypass 30,000€ just to name a few.
Wife and I look on this as a 'damned if we do damned if we dont' scenario Thomas. Do we relinquish our private health insurance and and as soon as we do risk being hit by a huge medical bill of which private care would have covered a large part. A lot more by comparison to premium costs. That is what keeps us hanging on to our insurance policy. We have dropped one or two sections of the policy to save money and now use the free seniors public hospital system more.
