Rubbish neighbours

I could hear the violins playing around Canberra as everybody read their sob story here and in this morning’s Crimes. Care factor zero.

I pass this place quiet regularly, and have always wondered what the story with it was – as it looks like absolute crap – with junk and rubbish all around it, broken windows in parts of the ‘house’ and a generally very run-down appearance.

Mind you, the Mitchells sound like fools and tosspots themselves. According to the story, they moved into their house in 1996, and are complaining how bad the place next door looks – but if I recall correctly, it actually looked nearly this bad back in 1996. What the hell were they thinking when they decided to purchase next door to a dump and a ruin?????

the article does say the mitchells did realise (blind freddy couldn’t miss it) the house next door was ‘being renovated’ when they bought their house – but they also claim to not have been told how long it had been like that (and, seriously, who in their right mind would buy a house with such knowledge?!) and if so you would hardly, well reasonably, expect that the partially renovated house would be the same a further 17 years on.

i am tempted to take a trip down to waramanga just to see this circus!

Maybe that their revolting neighbours would get around to leaning things up sometime in the proceeding decade? It’s not their fault that they’re living next to nightmares and the Government can’t seem to make anything sensible happen.

Yeah, the Mitchell’s do sound like rubbish neighbors.

Wow imagine having to put up with the Gerondals?

Mrs Gerondal said that still rankled. ”The Supreme Court was wrong, absolutely wrong,” she said. ”It is ridiculous we have had to spend $70,000 on a total abuse of the legislation.”

She believes the failure of the build, begun when her now 72-year-old husband Paul was 34, to proceed was everybody’s fault but their own.

Really,everyone’s fault except their own? HAHAHAHAHA!

Why on earth would you borrow $70k to pay legal fees to fight all these orders… Holy crap. Just finish the damn house..

Wow !

no idea why they just don’t sell the place
