I stand corrected, I was ill informed about the circumstances. I have been told the the GG threatened to dissolve parliament and Whitlam resigned.
I was wrong, Mae Culpa

Regards the word 'royalty', I think it is generally treated as an uncountable noun.
He is royalty
They are royalty
But there are exceptions, which is why I used the term 'generally'.
The reigning monarch in the UK is the Head of State
The Government is His/Her Majesty's Government. He/She is the Head. The monarch is still required to sign every piece of law, and can refuse to sign and piece of law. Although this refusal has not happened for a long time.
Unlike most countries, the UK does not a a written constitution (one single document). The constitution is wrapped up in many documents, statutes, traditions, and recognised practices. It also can and does change.
The GG did not sack Whitlam as such.
The GG cannot do that.
I think you may have miss heard.
There is a subway (not Subway) rail line opening near Metro (not metro), but it is currently under construction.
No results found.
Great to know it is no longer dry.
Good review BTW
This has moved.
The cut flowers are about 700m east on Duonan Jie. The plants and trees are about 700 m west and follow Duocai Section.
A reasonable choice of lumber that has improved over time. Fancy hardwoods like walnut, and mahogany are in abundance. There are some plywood and rubber-wood boards available. There are also some kiln dried imported softwoods and merbao available. Some of the lumber is very green, so look for the kiln dried if you need stable timbers.
Echo everything said by others.
Breakfast great and the serve from 8am. Most other places say 9am and they still are not ready.
Sandwiches are cheap 22-32, and really packed full of filling. We got some sandwiches for a day out, the only mistake I made was ordering two, as this was too much. These are seriously good sangars, and they are wrapped in alu foil.
In fairness to Metro, they are a wholesalers, and not really a supermarket. Hence the need for a card, which can be got around.
They have improved in the year I have been away. They now carry a more consistent range of imported foodstuffs and they also seem to have sorted out the mported milk supply.
They have a wider range of electrical appliances now, there is a coice of more than one toast. There is also a better range of seasonal non foods, like clothes, shoes, garden furniture and camping gear.
Report: Yunnan bonds shaky
发布者I checked and it was still available yesterday. Not sure of minimum period. But three months makes a nice change from the usual minimum of 12.
Report: Yunnan bonds shaky
发布者Yes this is a high tisk period, and yes there have been problems in the past, but I think the HuaXia bank scandal last year put the cat among the pigeons for wealth management schemes in China.
Because there are so few investment opportunities, combined with so few people willing to invest, and with recent regulatory changes the banks need to/have to move money in the markets. This has opened up some more attractive products at the moment.
We have just been offered 5.5% projected annual growth for a wealth management product, and get this, the principle is protected (you cannot lose your original investment). You can invest for limited periods too. We invested for 3 months, as we have some spare cash for that period. I think you can invest for as little as one month.
NB This is not a recommendation for people to go out and invest, it is just a bit of information on another related trend in the market at the moment.
Volunteers needed to help Lufeng schools
发布者I can't help feeling the participation/contributions to the event would have been higher with a different title to the article. I am cynical, TIC afterall.
