I see signage has been installed around the edge of the path approaching the harbour bridge as notification of that areas approaching significant upgrade.
I notice from their images there is no sign of the lovely traditional park benches and they look to be replaced by concrete slabs and wood blocks.
Why do this? Traditional park seats like that are comfortable, sensible, well placed and no doubt were very expensive. I think it would be a shame to lose the existing seats.
Also, I hope the fishing tables and hoses stay as well as these get a huge amount of use.

Lenovo Tablet for a school

My old mum passed a while ago and I would like to give her 2 year old Lenovo tablet to a school so they can give it to one of their students that could make use of it.

Mum was not exactly a power user so it is very low specked. It will also need to be reset, which embarrassingly, I cant seem to be able to do.
Please don't ask me for it because I cant be bothered dealing with lots of people. Just give me the name of a low decile school that may have use for it and I will drop it off.

Do cheap interest rates equate to smart finance structures?

Speirs Finance

We all understand that buying cheap does not always equate to the best value purchase but when it comes to finance, the interest rate is often the primary focus and this can lead to poor customer outcomes.

This is because finance can be complex and other more important factors like structure, terms and conditions can have a much greater impact on cash flow than interest rate.

It’s very common to see businesses with cash flow issues that have poor asset finance structures as the primary cause for this. This is because it is now hard for Customers to make a value judgement when choosing a finance provider as finance has become a commoditized product where the interest rate is the perceived point of differentiation.
