"Neither" is a choice between two, not a singular rejection - "Nor are you" was the correct response.
Willem: just let people post as they choose - if they require lessons on English from you I'm sure they'll ask.

Neither is correct as it is a choice between your comment or
mine
I choose to post what I feel like posting just as you decide to do. As long as it falls within the
forum rules then it should be OK. Whether anyone reading it, likes it or not, is a matter entirely to themselves.
One day upon a stair
I saw a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
Oh, how I wish he'd go away
Go away Mike Harding, you serve no purpose and you are, at best of times, a PITA

Hi Qubert,
I agree, I have used bus freight plenty of times. Will carry larger parcels than Aust post & their prices are good too.

I've found them particularly good for bike postage around Oz (whole bike packaged in a bike box).
Aus post can be better for items smaller than a whole bike (ie frame only) the trick is to wrap it up in a non symmetrical shape so that they can't go with the cubic measurement and have to use actual weight :)
It's also worthwhile checking out www.smartsend.com.au as I've heard that they can be even better value than busfreight, depending on what you are sending and where to.

I bought about 40 heifers at auction a couple of years ago, they arrived that night and to this day have never received a bill. from gippsland to western Vic should have been about a grand.....

Mate, that is AMAZING. 40 heifers delivered by Greyhound for free! If I hadn't read it on exploroz I wouldn't have believed it!

Not if you are in WA (outside of metro area). They have a depot in
Perth, and another Courier needs to be contracted to move goods any further.
