(above) Playford Salvation Army more frequently collects donations left in front of their donation bin on Kinkaid Road, Elizabeth East. This prevents the items from been taken by scavengers or damaged by the weather.

(above) Most of us didn't notice the light rain we had during a night three weeks ago. We often have patches of nightly rain not registered by weather stations.

(above) But the rain on one particularly night was enough to take away the insulating quality of this quilt on a baby mattress at the back of St. John Apostle and Evangelist Anglican Church at Salisbury.

(above) The camper left the wet mattress, but took the quilt to a partially covered area at the tombstone side of the church. This is business as usual for most homeless people in Adelaide: a camp is never secure or permanent.

(above) “It’s heartbreaking,” an employee at the Salisbury Salvo store says of sorting clothing ripped from garbage bags left at the back door. She says they check for dirty needles, but won’t say they threw out what was scattered on the dirty footpath after a light night rain. She says they’ve recently bought a washing machine.

(above) Competition for bags of donations left behind the Salisbury Salvation Army store is ferocious. Ragged men watch from hidden vantage points ready to pounce on each new arrival.

(above) Locked down in a prison is a nightmare, but the good news is that inmates due soon for release or on small charges will be released. This includes a former worker at Nanna's Free Food Basket.

(above) Even the takeaway St Bede's free breakfasts at 200 Military Road, Semaphore have been cancelled. A limited free takeaway food service remains for regular local clients on the phone list. Also, for those homeless people sleeping in their vans at Semaphore beach. The virus and doctor phone numbers are very valuable.

(above) Most of the homeless campers at Semaphore won't be put out by the closure of free food joints. They hold the charities in contempt and avoid them. (Adelaide Homeless Journal March 2020).

“I was wondering if anyone knew if Pathway church were still giving out the weekly fruit and veg?”
 Code supplied
 
Editor: They were open on Thursday 28 March at 10:45am. The open front door was blocked with a table behind which stood a woman wearing a face mask. Two clients were pushing trolleys covered in fruit and vegetables to their cars. The Op shop was operating as per usual, as well. Lifepoint down the road has moved from an indoor service to handing out bags of fruit, vegetables and bread from outside the back door. 
 
This is the pre-Corona schedule. It may be changed since then.

Adelaide Homeless Project’s
great success?

Why doesn’t the Adelaide Zero Project talk about its great success in reducing homelessness? It’s sunk millions of dollars into the project to employ extra bureaucrats. But the homeless rate has remained the same in the Project’s two years of operation. Perhaps their biggest success has been the con itself.
 
And why doesn’t the Adelaide Zero Project produce an annual report showing how many bureaucrats have been employed and the level of their salaries and perks? Also, how many conferences and seminars attended by each employee?
 
They could hand out copies to homeless people as they collect their personal details for the Eternal Shame File. That would be a fair exchange.

Prostitution as a pathway to citizenship
 
An Asian prostitute and her Asian female pimp knocked at my door. They insisted I’d called them for an appointment. The hard pimp showed me a message on her cheap phone.
 
It took three or four minutes of being subtly threatened before I realised what they were. The prostitute appeared almost innocent while the eyes of the pimp filled me with fear. They finally walked away to continue the search for their elusive customer. I wondered if it was dirty Stan who crapped his pants or the sex offender recently released from jail.
 
The following week I asked around about Asian prostitutes. I discovered the “girls” came here as “students” after signing up for flimsy courses such as cooking or hairdressing at TAFE. Or at one of those expensive private education businesses where they rarely turn up for classes, but still achieve a qualification.
 
The young women make their money from prostitution to pay for the cost of lawyers and immigration agents to legally sneak them into Australia. And for the flimsy courses. After a year or two they became qualified cooks or nail technicians or whatever then apply for Australian citizenship.
 
Some Asian prostitutes also work indirectly with the Adelaide Convention Centre and the Adelaide Casino in providing sexual services to Asian high-flyer gamblers or convention delegates.
 
This brings us to the question of who is behind South Australia’s attempt to make prostitution legal? Members of Parliament like Michelle Lensink and others advocate for its legalisation, but for what reasons?
 
Feminists argue that it would make the lives of prostitutes (they call them sex workers) safer from both criminals and police prosecution. But an opposing argument is that it turns women’s’ bodies into sexual products to be sold on the open market. The feminist version of liberation through legal prostitution seems a form of mass delusion. The sex worker industry is an ugly industry whether legal or not.
 
Yet the real mystery is who are the secret backers behind the politicians trying to legalise it.

Food Barn extracting personal data  in exchange for food

The young druggie couple cram their one blanket into a bag. They both wear brand new shoes obtained yesterday and have also acquired another bicycle. Her BMX is adult sized while his more suits a six-year-old.
 
A thin man groans with pain as he lowers himself to the concrete and leans against the wall of the old Waye café. He tells the homeless man next to him he’d was thrashed yesterday by a security guard. The homeless man gives him a cigarette paper and empties the contents of a few butts into it. The thin man’s arms and legs flail about wildly and he shouts in frustration as the tiny amount of fine tobacco is blown away by a gust of wind. The homeless man gives him more that the thin man manages to wrap it into an ultra-thin smoke.
 
The young druggie couple inexplicably leave as the front door of Anglicare opens. Breakfasts in the Waye café and lunch in the Food Barn have been cancelled so the eight hardened men are met by Amando the security guard, Kirsty the coordinator and another woman. Before being handed bags of takeaway food the women require the bed to provide their name, date of birth, Centrelink card number, marital or family status and other personal details.
 
This data mining iss both for the eternal shame file and to allow Anglicare and police to locate them if any one client or staff member comes up positive on a Covid-19 virus test. Then everyone involved will be locked-down in their homes for two weeks or if homeless, plonked in some motel like Scotty’s on Main North Road at Prospect.
 
And this is the new regime at the formerly no-questions-asked Anglicare Food Barn in what one politican says will be the “hardest year of our lives”.  But will it be hard due to the virus or due to the government and the charities?

How to access the MY GOV online during this time

“Most of you would have been told that the MY GOV system has crashed and cannot be accessed. I tried and initially I got the system down message.
 
“Then I went online and did some research and found that someone had managed to access their MY GOV account doing this. Launch your browser via an IN PRIVATE TAB and then try and login. I did this (just to check if it would work) and it did. I didn't go through any processes (like report my fortnightly income etc) so I CANNOT reliably tell you, that the system might still not crash or freeze, but I CAN tell you, that I managed to login without any issues.
 
“This was quite late at night (it is quarter to midnight at the moment) but IF YOU URGENTLY need to login, then I suggest you wait try and do it between 2am and 5am using the in Private Browser mode and I think you should be okay (no guarantees mind you, I am just telling you I managed to login myself)

“Good Luck. I hope this information helps out those persons needing to access this website.”

Fred’s Van workers don’t turn up

The hooded man carrying an orange bag reads the notice on the front door of the Salisbury Institute building stating the Fred’s Van meal had been cancelled. He walks back across Wiltshire Street with another more dangerous character, carrying a bulkier synthetic pink blanket and pink backpack.
 
Homeless Trevor arrives next to find the building empty. The ingrained disappointment etched across this stoic man’s face intensifies as he clenches and releases his strong fists. He is thirsty and hungry when he arrives each Sunday and on this afternoon he turns around and walks back down Wiltshire Street.
 
An Aboriginal couple moves silently along the front of the radio station building carefully avoiding the footpath. They take the bad news with a cultivated indifference and continue toward the railway station.
 
The former boyfriend of Stormy Summers drives into the carpark then sits on the bench below the old movie projection room. He yells that surgery on his left eye has failed. He says the annual procedure he needs every year to prevent blindness in that eye is in doubt because the RAH has cancelled elective surgery. “It’s the virus,” he adds.  
 
The woman who had her baby taken away upon birth by the Child Protection department says she is depressed. Her powerful boyfriend watches us with amusement as if deciding whose arm he will break.
 
Another half-dozen hopeful diners arrive, but most are absent having somehow discovered the meal has been cancelled. Or perhaps they avoid the place for fear of the virus.
 
Fred’s Van Salisbury is cancelled until further notice due to the building being shut down. PBA-FM will continue with presenters entering via a front door to the studios. To get the latest news phone Teresa Branch on (08) 8112 8720.
 
Details below are from the pre-Corona Virus era. Everything is takeaway now.
 
Fred’s Van Salisbury
Salisbury Institute building, 17 Wiltshire St, Salisbury (next to PBA-FM radio station). 6:00pm Sunday. Soup, good main meal, Maranello pizzas, excellent pasta, dessert, coffee and lousy takeaways. Free. No I.D. required. Overcrowded and rushed. Free Orange Sky laundry 4:30-6:30pm. Use back door through BankSA carpark. Fascinating people. Beautiful stone building. Huge surveillance cameras. Horrible greasy toilets and walls. Decent staff.

Looking for the places
​only they would know

Almost miraculously a dustier, rougher skinned crowd has replaced a demographic of wealthier, older and sicker clients that have stayed away. Going from a sit-down meal to being locked outside on the street waiting for takeaway containers ― plus the threat of the virus ― has left vacancies for the more desperate and downtrodden.
 
This replacement crowd includes the young druggie couple who appear wilder by the week. She walks while he rides a tiny BMX bike while pushing a shopping trolley filled with large stuffed toys.
 
Other clients are on edge. They let their guards down as they talk on sensitive subjects such as a son threatening to pull a knife on his father the previous night. Another says her younger sister is on drugs and steals everything of value in sight. A popular man whom one might assume was homeless says, “I’d kill myself if I had to live outside, being watched everywhere.”  There are bursts of anger between those who praise or condemn Trump. A woman says she’d like to put a bullet in his head. An older man is more sanguine. He says his progress towards becoming a nursing home resident is going well.
 
As those waiting increase in numbers, the heavy-duty drug addicts move away from the gate back towards a tree, their single-topic conversation kept to themselves.
 
When the Fred’s Van volunteer comes to unlock the gates, a druggie pushed them open having apparently picked the heavy lock.
 
There is continuous bickering in the queue about people who shouldn’t be there as they appear too rich. Lunch includes those deceptively shallow aluminium trays with cardboard tops and filled with delicious meat and vegetables. There isn’t any cutlery as they want us to take the food elsewhere.
 
Just three volunteers turned up this Sunday morning including Sharka Bryant, a Liberal party candidate at the last election. She has worked without pay for the Salvos, Fred’s Van and other homeless groups for years. She says they aren’t sure how long the lunch will last due to declining donations. But then, she always says this.
 
Within minutes, we are gone and the gate is being locked behind us.
 
Details below are from the pre-Corona Virus era. Everything is takeaway now.
Fred’s Van Elizabeth Sunday
St Vincent de Paul Centre, 8 Langford Drive, Elizabeth (near Elizabeth railway station). 12:00 noon Sundays. 6:00pm Wednesdays. Free. 36 seat restaurant plus outdoor seating. No I.D. or registration required. Rowdy. Crowded. Very good. Toilets.

The Tokyo Subway Gassing Remains A Media False Narrative 25 years on

Fred’s Van Salisbury and Kilburn finished, but city service continues

Salisbury and Kilburn Fred’s Vans operate out of the Institute building and Kilburn Community Centre respectively. That’s the problem. These places have shut down because of the virus so Fred’s Van is locked out.
 
However, somewhat heroically, Fred’s Van at Gawler Place continues to operate though as a takeaway service with a bag of hot food and hot coffee. The Wednesday evening meal at Whitmore Square continues as well. This is a sacrifice for some volunteers as a dose of the virus would put them in their grave.
 
This situation must prompt Fred’s Van to question whether it was a good idea to use buildings not owned by themselves or branches of the Catholic church. Or keep a couple of mobile vans primed and ready for action.
 
Note: Nearly all free food places are takeaway services now.
 
Fred’s Van Adelaide City Outdoor Food Service
Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday at Hemmings Park, Gawler Place (between Flinders and Wakefield Streets), Adelaide from 7:00pm to 7:30pm.
Sundays at the same address from 6:00pm to 6:30pm. No service on Saturdays.
Sausages, bread, sandwiches, fruit and coffee served at Gawler Place with vegetarian curry and rice from Sathya Sai group on Sundays and Thursdays.
Wednesday Fred’s Van is at 34 Whitmore Square, Adelaide from 6:30pm to at least 7:30pm for an indoor sit-down higher quality meal. Toilets available only on Wednesdays.
Everything is free and they don’t require I.D. or registration.
They might also have socks and blankets. This is Adelaide’s No. 1 soup kitchen.

(above) A mix of Australian homeless and foreign backpackers camped at Semaphore Beach. The Port Adelaide Enfield Council says they haven't told the local homeless campers to leave, but are conducting a "long-term investigation". A spokeswoman for the Council said expelling the homeless campers would shunt them somewhere else and they don't want to do this.

Experts recommend washing hands frequently with bar soap

It appears using bar soap is an effective way of removing the Sars Covid-19 virus from hands. It is important to wash every part of the hand including between the fingers and rinsing well and drying with a clean cloth or paper towel.
 
You should wash your hands frequently and preferably in a clean area and not some filthy public toilet. But if you are stuck in such a place, turn of the tap with your elbow and open the door using a paper towel or a key or your elbow.
 
Alcohol-based sanitiser may also help, but nothing will help if someone with Covid-19 coughs in your face. Then it is up to fate and your immune system.
 
And staying home is the safest bet until this virus passes over or until a vaccine is discovered.

“They may have to refuse treatment to anyone over 50, which is basically everyone I know. There are only 2000 ventilators for all of Australia.

Adelaide Casino news
 
The guard cut by a homeless man wielding a pair of scissors was angry. Not from the cut that required one or two stitches, but because he had to stay three hours after his shift finished. Casino management and police asked him so many questions and demanded that he sign so many papers. That’s what made him angry, not the homeless man who had been trying to enter the casino for weeks.

As to the Casino’s attempts to hold down the Corona Virus, one gambler said, “No use cleaning down the coin dispensing machines when all those dirty notes have been poked inside and what about those dirty coins?”
 
Patrons at Elizabeth Fred’s Van wondered why they were refused entry into the Vinnies café. Why were they made to stand outside for takeaway food when the Adelaide Casino wasn’t doing that to its restaurant clients, some of whom are gambling addicts and the same people who go to homeless soup kitchens after losing their money.
 
However, the poor got their revenge as the government closed down the Adelaide Casino until further notice. The longer this societal cancer is closed down the better.
 
Meanwhile, one man sensed the impending closure and cashed in his free horse racing game wins at the Casino that amount to $1640 while another with a similar amount left it on his card. That was a mistake as he could be dead from the virus by the time the Casino reopens. Or the Casino could have gone bust or been banned from operating.

Turning trauma into profit
 
You never really recover from being homeless. It’s a trauma carried in the subconscious to the day of your death. And as a failsafe escape tunnel, it always remains an option if life becomes intolerable.
 
But as silly as it may seem, adopting the homeless lifestyle can be a gateway to a better life. Even sleeping under trees or in building doorways for short periods is an experience resembling a holiday. The problem is that it can resemble being stuck on the Corona Princess cruise ship and not being able to get off.
 
Yet buying a rusty van or even sleeping in your car might be an option to paying most of your welfare income in rent. Combining this with charity handouts, you might even buy a house with a mortgage after a few years.
 
One couple have lived in their stationary unregistered van parked in a public place for two years.
 
Once you discover what is available free, you should never again buy toiletries, blankets, food, train tickets, clothing and prescription medicines again. Apart from fuel for a camp stove you should never pay for electricity or gas. You can wash your body in the ocean, at the mobile shower van and at charity joints. You can wash your clothing with Orange Sky Laundry, well, you could until they fled the virus.  
 
When you gain access to the survival network, then a world opens up that you never knew existed.
 
But this lifestyle requires mental and physical discipline and a keen eye to watch for signs of self-deterioration. But after a few years you should be immunised from ever again being financially destitute, which is important in these times of deteriorating conditions and The Big Cull.

St Bede’s plan to stop clients
​getting close

St Bede’s Semaphore is closed tomorrow, Tuesday, for its free breakfast. On Wednesday, there are food parcels for those who make appointments. This plan is to keep clients from seeing each other and shaking hands or sitting too close.
 
This is a crushing blow for two or three dozen people, but is done in the name of escaping the Corona Virus.
 
St Bede’s might be contacted either through the church or via Anglicare or simply turn up on Wednesday mornings and knock on the door at 200 Military Road, Semaphore.

The Corona Virus regime at Elizabeth Fred’s Van

Mr Rock Solid yelled then ran at Randall saying the other man had followed him to “Klemzig” where he had bit his big toe. Randall growled a response as he no longer speaks due to a voice box ailment. He knew Mr Solid was joking though not always to everyone.
 
Mr Solid pressed his face against the one-way glass doors and shouted that he loved “Mary”, an aging and leading Fred’s Van volunteer. She punched him in the stomach at Christmas for calling her by the wrong name for two years. Her name isn’t “Helen”.
 
Mr Solid brought a mirror covered in bubble wrap. His girlfriend, Rosie, said it was to watch himself dancing in his shorts. Mr Solid pulled down his trousers to show the bulge of a hernia below his waist. He said he can’t get surgery on it for at least a year. He said he was in pain also from botched surgery on the wounds from getting shot. The incident still bothers him years later.
 
Mick of Mick and Denise wasn’t there because he was slinking around Cash Converters in Salisbury. He’d made an $1800 loan and was taking a long time to pay it off plus the 4% monthly interest.
 
When the doors opened, the Fred’s Van cafe entrance was blocked by a table covered by deceptively shallow aluminium takeaway trays with cardboard lids. These held rice, mixed vegetables and meat. There were also soft drinks and chocolate, but no hot coffee. There wasn’t any cutlery because they wanted us to leave immediately, but we didn’t. Some diners used the cardboard tray covers as makeshift spoons.
 
There were forty diners, mostly in a good mood especially despite the reduced service and the rejection. One druggie threw a Cos lettuce over the rubbish bins that a younger volunteer retrieved.  She couldn’t understand why he’d do that. He’s a druggie, what could she expect? Others were angry about not being able to enter the café or have a coffee. We consider it our private clubroom.
 
Was it a pleasant gathering? Yes, but there was a general feeling as if we’d been collectively kicked in the solar plexus.
 
Takeaway only in the time of the virus. Fruit, bread and vegetables might be available during the week.

Secret food in the time of the virus
The Night Talker

“A number of charities have left over Christmas hampers and supermarket food vouchers from last year that they are giving away...........all you need to do is ask?

“I am in a tight squeeze at the moment. The place I have been working at since the beginning of the year closed down for five weeks. Since I am employed as a contractor I was only paid for two of those five weeks. So being (temporarily) unemployed again, I went to a certain charity (that rhymes with FANGLICARE) and asked for emergency assistance.
 
“I received an (unopened) Christmas hamper from last year and a $30.00 Drake Supermarket voucher. I was told the hamper may have some out of date items, but I was welcome to take it.
 
“I was told there are stacks and stacks of these hampers available. All you need to do is ask for one. I gratefully accepted what I was offered. Yes the hamper had a couple of items that needed to go straight in the bin (out of date) (Christmas pudding and a packet of fruit mince pies) but everything else was good.
 
“There was also some toiletries and some Allen's confectionary ("Coolmints" and "Blackcats") However best of all, were 500gram packets of pasta, 500gram packet of long grain rice and several tins of fruit and vegetables as well as some fruit in a jar and a nice big box of Dilmah Earl Grey Tea (my absolute Fave drink in the morning).

“SO THE MORAL OF THE STORY IS- "ASK AND YE SHALL RECEIVE!"

“P.S. As per usual, this is NOT being advertised openly by any major Charity. It seems to be on a need to know basis.......whether that is good or bad you need to decide.”

Why did Don Dunstan Foundation bureaucrats write the visiting American homeless expert’s
​final report?

Dr Noni Brennan was in Adelaide from the 4th to the 22nd of November 2019 as an expert advisor in homelessness. She flew in from the United States as the Don Dunstan Foundation’s Thinker-in-Residence. It was her second visit, the previous with Dame Louise Casey in 2018, who initially said homelessness in the Adelaide CBD would be wrapped up within a year.
 
Brennan’s final report was named, “Ending sleeping rough in the inner city,” but it wasn’t written by her.
 
If you read it, you’re into page 6 of the 12-page report before you find a single word written by Dr Brennan. Then after one page from her, the final five pages are again written by bureaucrats Clare Rowley, Rose Lacoon Williamson and Lydia Crawford-Pope.
 
So what did this pamphlet-style report say? It resembles the same ideas found in previous reports: more money for bureaucrats for paid training, more housing transferred from the Housing Trust and community housing to the Adelaide Zero Project, more personal “support” for tenants and an increased breakdown of privacy firewalls protecting client’s personal life histories.  
 
As to the original Adelaide Zero Project one-year plan to reduce “functional zero homelessness” in the Adelaide city and parklands area to zero, it was extended to two-years, but this report pushes it even further back to two years and nine months.
 
There is also a gender imbalance in the report: Four white well-paid overweight females preparing the report while most people sleeping outside in the Adelaide CBD are low or no-income men including plenty of Aboriginal men, most of whom are not over-weight.
 
How could Dr Noni Brennan not write her own report? And how much did it cost to bring her to Adelaide for 18 days? How much for accommodation, meals, transport in Adelaide, air tickets from the United States, office space and other expenses? Would the Don Dunstan Foundation feel comfortable providing a detailed costing for this 12-page report?
 
Both the Don Dunstan Foundation and the Adelaide Zero Project crowd have inserted themselves into the homeless industry and are extracting money that could be used for housing. Or it could be used to enforce the law against crystal methamphetamine and heroin dealers who operate out of homeless joints like Baptist WestCare and the Hutt Street Centre.

​On the Street
 
The young druggie couple struck again at St Bede’s Church hall in Semaphore. They stole a laptop from a volunteer in the Bede’s Bazaar Op Shop. The woman druggie kept the staff busy while trying on shoes while the man slipped the laptop into his backpack and quickly strode from the store.

What happens if Adelaide is put on a lock-down like Italy? Where do the homeless go? Will the drug dealers posing as homeless people rule the streets?
 
*
 
The Adelaide Zero Project has started an “Emergency” fund. What does this mean? An off-book slush fund for funneling money here and there?
 
*
 
 
Adelaide’s jails are on lock-down today with next of kin visitors only. Some staff are said to be wearing Hazmat suits.
 
*
 
The sense of home has disappeared from the Anglicare retirement units at Elizabeth due for demolition. Refugees are quite reasonably temporarily housed in the empty units, but by an apparently different group of tenancy officers. This gives the permanent tenants a feeling of strangers roaming the complex.
 
It isn’t the refugees’ fault despite a new couple just moved in considered a little strange by a white tenant. These Arab refugees get up at 4:30am and peek from their kitchen window at the white retiree tenant peeking at them from his.  
 
What is galling is that some black African “refugees” lived there a few weeks before moving to “something better” while the old white residents due for a similar transfer linger in anxiety as the demolition day comes nearer.

The Night Stalker said he’ll never again take a certain Semaphore woman to a soup kitchen because last time she pissed on the floor

Lincoln Lodge Support Residential Facility kicks tenants out after breakfast, allows them back in at lunch then kicks them out until the evening meal. Some are so far gone that they smear faeces on the walls or perform a bowel movement in front of the T.V.
 
*
 
An older woman at the Seventh-day free food church at Elizabeth Park said her scheduled surgery was cancelled indefinitely due to the Corona Virus pandemic.
 
*
 
Adelaide hit men in the drug scene are addicts near the end of their lives. They aren’t cold killers with silenced weapons, but unfortunate souls who have lost their minds. They operate with iron pipes and cans of petrol and think of little except their next batch of drugs.
 
They’re used by dealers because they’re inexpensive, expendable and considered unreliable by the police and courts. A simple hot shot will get rid of them with no inquest.
 
*
 
The can collector returned to St Bede’s free soup kitchen at Semaphore after a one-year absence. He’d gotten into “sexual trouble” after a dealer gave him some Ice that sent him over the edge. He wasn’t and isn’t an Ice user.

A man who got a house via the Aspire Program said a friend went to the Magdalene Centre in Gilbert Street and got new pillows and bedding.
 
*
 
A resident at Sunnydale Support Residency Facility in Semaphore joyfully said that management was fitting large televisions on the walls of the rooms.
 
He laughed wildly when a local told him these screens have secret cameras that will watch everything he does in his bedroom.
 
*
 
The Corona Virus has been saviour for the Australian government. They’ve been itching to impose a mass lock-down for years. And to use the virus as an excuse to bring in more foreign workers who become Australian citizens by stealth.

Damian Hodges from St Bede’s at Semaphore has spent three weeks in the Queen Elizabeth Hospital. He turned to skin and bones over the past six-months despite living a clean life without drugs or alcohol. He is well liked and his friends are worried about him.

Salvos replace hospitals
​in the time of the virus

“I have been told by the "friendly informant", (my mole on the inside, that reports back to me) that the Elizabeth East Salvation Army on Kinkaid Road, which is currently the "unofficial" go to place for vulnerable persons denied access to hospital care (in the North of Adelaide) will soon become known as the "official" community ‘go-to’, agency under an announcement, to be delivered by the South Australian Health Department.

“Currently anyone that does not meet the criteria, for admittance/treatment at the Lyell Mac Hospital or by a G.P service, is advised to go to the Kinkaid Road Salvo's for assistance.
 
“If they require medical treatment, they are advised to go to the Elizabeth Medical and Dental Clinic on Philip Highway (which now has extended hours from 7am until 1.00am in the morning.)
 
“The Kinkaid Road Salvo's have allegedly been given considerable funds to provide a "community" hub for vulnerable persons in the North [northern suburbs] of Adelaide.
 
“The persons meant to be assisted include; elderly (without top level health insurance, that would qualify them for immediate treatment at any hospital) the unemployed, mentally ill, single parents, homeless and the mentally challenged.

“Services that the Salvation Army in Elizabeth have (allegedly) been given increased funding for are supposed to be for the following; (according to the friendly informant) daily emergency food assistance which includes ready cooked meals and supermarket vouchers, food parcels, clothing, counseling (including mental health and financial) shower and laundry service, and a breakfast club for school aged children.
 
“The funding that has been provided (according to my inside informant is apparently astronomical) So I am asking for those of you who live on that side of town (I do not) and use this service, have you seen any changes? Or perhaps you can report back to me, if you see any Salvation Army staff driving past you in Audi's or Mercs?”

Stephen Molyneaux and Dr Paul Cottrell talk about a bio-engineered Sars Covid-19 virus 

Opaque sweet deals of former politicians mask a dark pool of crooked cronyism

As the government sells off its (citizens’) assets, it would be informative for the incomes and assets of former Members of Parliament to be disclosed.
 
These include Kevin Foley, Nick Bolkus and Christopher Pyne. Particularly Kevin Foley as he facilitated the sale of Dept. of Marine and Harbors land from Outer Harbour to Port Adelaide.
 
Private developers have gotten hold of this land alongside the old Port River docks that parallel St Vincent Street from Commercial Road to the Colac Hotel. They have built and are building rows of cramped square units smack up against the waterfront, leaving the tiny strip of public access as effectively part of the land package to private buyers.
 
Many crooks embedded in the system must be getting kickbacks from the uglifying of this once publicly-owned land.

Useless “Homeless Gateway”
​in Port Adelaide

An older homeless couple at the end of their tether went to the “Homeless Gateway” at Lipson Street, Port Adelaide. She’s been on Category 3 of the Housing Trust since 1986, but doesn’t understand that it’s a dead list, a deception.
 
She cannot get the dole because she returned to New Zealand to look after her dying father. When she returned she discovered she had to wait ten years to get the dole. And then she got heart trouble that required open-heart surgery.
 
The receptionist at Lipson Street told them to phone the “Homeless Gateway” the following day despite that office being through the door behind her.
 
Those who formulate policy in the “Homeless Gateway” chose the administrative tools of prevarication and humiliation to be used on homeless people.

​Profiteering and borrowed pensioner I.D. at Woolworths
The Night Talker

“Woolworths are directing vulnerable shoppers to their online priority application form. That may seem logical except it doesn't work? It also doesn't appear to recognise you if you have an unusual first or surname.
 
“Woolworths also has canned both home delivery and pickups from in store, stating on their automated online phone service that, they feel that this service is currently not necessary and because some stock may not be able to be ordered, most people won't want this service, so they have canned it. (Go figure)
 
“I have also been told by numerous reliable sources that the dedicated shopping hour is a complete farce because people who are not vulnerable have been borrowing health care and pension cards from those who are, to buy goods, so thereby circumventing the whole system and then there is a little discussion we need to have about Woolies (and other retailers) profiteering from this current calamity. (Drake supermarkets included) I went into my local Drakes and they had Broccoli at ten dollars a kilo! (wow that's not profiteering is it)”

Heart and Soul free food
​at Elizabeth South

There were two hundred people waiting outside the locked gates at 7:10pm. The gates were locked due to shouting and pushing the previous week, according to two women talking near me.
 
Another fifty patrons at least were walking from their cars and over the next hour perhaps a further 50 to 100 arrived.
 
Tickets were issued and then called out in batches of ten so that nearly 300 people queued around the building. Some snuck round the Freemasons’ carpark and then jumped over the fence.
 
One man in the queue had been homeless in the city for five years then applied for rental housing via the Hutt Street Centre’s Aspire Program. Aspire houses homeless people to save the government spending money on putting them through the court and prison system, and into hospitals.
 
But this fellow didn’t fit that criteria. It had taken him six-months going through the interview and re-education process. This hadn’t bothered him, but he wondered why they’d allocated him a unit in Elizabeth when he’d lived the last twenty years nearer the city and where vacant accommodation had been available.
 
However, the unit costs him just $65 a week on the dole so he wasn’t complaining about rent, but he said he didn’t have enough money for food. It was strange the Hutt Street Centre displacing him to Elizabeth, which is precisely what the Don Dunstan Foundation and the Adelaide Zero Project say harms a tenancy.
 
An old woman amongst us said she and her husband both had cancer and diabetes while he had a mastectomy and calcified asbestosis. She said they’d been waiting for a MyAgedCare package for three years.
 
We were near the end of the queue and waited two-hours then finally got into the hall. Some fellow pushed his way behind me and in front of a timid Chinese man. I considered making a scene, but didn’t. He whistled and muttered that the Freemasons were paedophiles and gay. I get along well with bigots, but this one annoyed me.
 
Heart and Soul gave away potatoes, onions, rotting and non-rotting fruit, lemons, pastries, bread baked the previous day, ginger ale, unlimited non-dairy yoghourt, Indian curry paste and a few other items. A man was giving away boxes of ice cream. He had 120 so the first half of the queue only got them. “Luck of the draw,” one person noted. The sales tables were crammed with people buying old unhealthy food plus bottled water. Payment was made via a tiny card reader and a small tablet.
 
Considering the rush of perhaps well over 300 people, they were short on volunteers. The Aspire Program man wanted to know who was Emma Rahim, but we couldn’t see her.
 
The mood overall was good though the process wouldn’t have suited disabled people as two-hours waiting in a queue might have been too much. And no toilets.

Fred’s Van Semaphore
 
Four Orange Sky operatives sat opposite a nervous Janet and Bill. Janet called me over to sit with them, to absorb the attention from the Orange Sky people. Janet doesn’t like complexities.
 
We talked about the lack of laundry clients despite the service being free and despite the 18 or so homeless people sleeping in their cars one street away in the Semaphore beach carpark. I said people like to do their own laundry in private, not being looked at by the volunteers.

​I would have said the truck shouldn’t be bright orange and parked along a busy road near the traffic lights, but couldn’t get that idea into the conversation. Orange Sky didn’t get a single client during their two hours at St Bede’s. What a waste of human and financial resources. Their service needs two features it doesn’t have currently: privacy and regularity.
 
Two young druggies arrived for the indoor Fred’s Van meal. They were different from the druggie couple in Salisbury.
 
The meal included takeaway containers of hot food, pies and pasties, and hot instant coffee. This was one day after the South Australian government declared a state of emergency over the Wuhan virus.
 
The man and woman volunteers who got their bikes stolen from inside the hall worked in the kitchen then packed up the tables and chairs. They’re both incredibly fit.
 
Changes this Sunday due to the Corona Virus pandemic.

Toast too dangerous at the Anglicare St Bede’s breakfasts at Semaphore

The raisin toast was now raisin bread because the volunteers weren’t allowed to toast it for our own safety. Nor was there hot water for coffee or meat in the sandwiches, these also being for our own good.
 
The breakfast was Vegemite and cheese rolls and a small container of Up and Go drink. Takeaway food included 2-minute noodles, good carrots and decent potatoes. The volunteers were as stunned as us. Their fascinating job had turned into a horror shift. But both volunteers and clients made the best of it so it wasn’t purely horrible.
 
Clients were allowed in the building one or two at a time, handed cold food then told to leave through the back door, and then get off the property. But we stayed and sat around the benches recently installed by Steve Davids’s sister. She’d used part of his bequest to commission the manufacture of plastic benches made from 25,000 shopping bags and drink bottles.
 
The atmosphere was like waking in the morning and finding a lifelong partner telling you it was all over. Or friends becoming enemies in a split second. The last thing the clients at St Bede’s need, or the volunteers for that matter.
 
There was no explanation about the Corona Virus because management doesn’t know if the precautions prevent infections or are being used simply as control mechanisms.
 
One woman client began crying saying she was unappreciated for risking her life to collect free food for others. Another said the use of hand sanitiser had no effect on virus.
 
Anyway, the indoor breakfasts are finished. It’s takeaway institution-style food from now on. No more table tennis, free use of the toilets or picking up free clothing from the stage, all finished.
 
So who decided to change the policy? An insider not from St Bede’s said it came up the top level of Anglicare including Peter Sandeman. And that it was for our own good because being old ― and many of us with life-threatening illnesses ― we are vulnerable to the Sars 2 Covid-19 virus. We had no say in the decision.
 
There were perhaps 35 clients on Tuesday then 20 on Wednesday. One severely disabled homeless client caught a taxi because someone stole the battery out of his car while he was in hospital. However, after Tuesday’s breakfast, he said it isn’t worth the trip.
 
The takeaway supermarket white bread on Tuesday was two days past the Best-By date meaning it was either 6 or 7 days old. Donations have also dried up from the Semaphore Bakehouse as customers are stockpiling and grabbing everything. Can’t blame them for that.

What is was like pre-Corona Virus:
8:30am - 10:30am Tuesday and Wednesday. Everything free. Hamburgers or sausages, baked beans, toasted ham and cheese sandwiches, yoghurt, cereals, slices of fruit and biscuits. Takeaway fruit and vegetables. The free bread on Wednesdays is fresher than on Tuesdays. Tea, coffee and Milo. Table tennis. Horrible toilets, but usually clean. Excellent staff. Ice dealers not tolerated.
 
What it is like now:
Don’t come inside the building except to receive bland takeaway food. Don’t pick anything up, wait for it to be put into your hand. Hang around outside the building if you must, but you’re not welcome. Expect to be treated as if you’re infectious.

Just plain craziness at Chat and Chew
 
Two women argued. I’ll call them Sue and Meredith, not their real names.
 
Sue wanted Meredith to move from her chair because it was where she, Sue, had sat opposite old Betsy before the old girl died. Meredith said the chairs weren’t reserved and that started the argument. Meredith’s husband became upset.

He’s the man who lost an eye and gained a steel plate in his head after Housing Trust neighbours hit him with a plank of wood.

​As he voiced his upset, The Night Stalker shouted that he didn’t care about his complaint. Meredith’s husband tried to explain, but received more shouts of contempt from The Night Stalker. Meredith’s husband left the building and didn’t return.
 
Stephen the Cook wasn’t happy either. He’d banned Sue and Meredith as volunteers from the kitchen as they’d argued the whole time about who got to do what task. Stephen got rid of them.
 
Meanwhile, back In the dining room, with Meredith’s husband gone, Sue then complained about the woman with the knife scar across her throat bringing her 19-year-old cat into the dining room. The scar woman had put it near the doorway and it was in a mesh cage. But Sue kept up her complaints.
 
Meanwhile, a friend of The Night Stalker kept burping and laughing crazily then turned her phone to an artificial farting website that she played for half an hour.
 
Mick, the epileptic man who grew up with the Exclusive Brethren, shook hands with me and asked if I could tell. Tell what? He said he’d had a stress stroke and it had weakened his grip. His hands were wet with sweat and he moved in a frozen manner.
 
The woman who had the midget boyfriend in a wheelchair who wanted to do dirty things to her said she’d had enough of the farting sounds and went home. She’d also got rid of the midget.
 
A new diner named Brodie wondered if he was out of place and ate on the plastic grass next to the picnic benches where eight diners had escaped the arguing and farting sounds.
 
The main course was soup of such high quality you’d get it only in an expensive restaurant, but not a medium-priced restaurant. Some cooks can create miracles out of simple ingredients.

Tablet Woman at Semaphore
 
The Least Active Volunteer will not become a work-for-the-dole volunteer at the Anglicare St Bede’s free breakfasts. He says the indoctrination program takes three months to complete and, anyway, he can’t go more than two-minutes without swearing loudly, and that is not allowed for volunteers.
 
A homeless man’s van was robbed at Semaphore beach carpark while he spent three weeks in hospital.
 
A new man named Brodie arrived for breakfast. The older woman who pisses her pants wasn’t there. She was walking in the direction of St Bede’s, but might have lost her way.
 
A Coronavirus-aware woman stormed out of the dining room after The Night Stalker told her she was talking out of her backside about the virus. The woman cleaned packages of food with disinfectant wipes and talked about washing hands. She’d won first prize in a hand washing competition at Hopes Café where the prizes included five free meals or a roll of toilet paper.
 
We had sat together when a church woman joined us perhaps expecting to share her goodwill until we lectured her about so-called dead organ donors not actually being dead. “Can we change the subject?” the church woman said so I talked about $24,000 grave plots at West Terrace cemetery. That made her eyes turn red.
 
Elaine the Tablet Woman arrived in a car driven by someone else. She asked us for a smoke. She was looking for more than that. I’d driven her to a job in Port Adelaide four-years ago when she was working as a prostitute. She was still beautiful, but now is skin and bones. She’s called the Tablet Woman because she eats any tablets, whatever they are. She eyes lithium batteries with lust, but isn’t so far gone to swallow them. That will come later.
 
I can’t remember what they served for breakfast.

Worst ever free takeaway food at Elizabeth Fred’s Van

A volunteer said she believed the usual deliveries from FoodBank and Second Bite had been diverted for use as animal feed due to the bushfires. That explained why the offering was the worst ever. She even had to buy bread from the supermarket for the lunch.
 
The lunch itself included thick slices of roast meat, boiled broccoli and cauliflower covered in melted cheese and roast potatoes. It was preceded by two types of homemade soup and followed by cheesecake that ran out and was replaced by ice cream and canned fruit.
 
Lisa brought a bag of bread buns that she passed to others at our table. She said St Vinnies didn’t offer hamper last Christmas. “They had the boxes, but nothing to put in them.”
 
The Team Leader named Kathy went out of her way to provide a non-meat meal for an old man and a vegan lunch for an ultra-thin vegan girl. The days of powdered soup and a bun and a kick between the legs at soup kitchens are long gone, thankfully.
 
But the problem remains of overcrowding and being rushed. The lunch should be a continuous service like the Food Barn where successive informal waves of diners are served.
 
The young druggie couple were there. They have very good appetites considering their thin bodies and lifestyle.
 
A man lay on his back on the warm concrete, laughing.
 
A new diner said he spent much of his life with his wife on ocean cruises. They’d live permanently on stand-by and grab whatever cheap fare was offered. They’d been on the Diamond Princess the previous year before it was stranded off Japan with coronavirus. They’d also been on the Grand Princess recently stranded off California. He said they’d been on another boat that passengers called the “Bird Flu”.
 
There was a bit of yelling at the end when a man shoved an Indian woman in the stomach where she said she’d recently had surgery. He said she was taking too much. She cried for ten-minutes. She is the wife of the Australian man descended from German immigrants from the 1850’s. White Tammy and a woman of PNG appearance both offered the Indian their Foodland purchase vouchers they’d got from a charity. They kept insisting, but the Indian woman refused. I’d thought the two women were trash then realised they’d responded kindlier than the rest of us. But of course, we old hands knew the background story to all of it.

Davoren Park free food
 
 A leading volunteer opened the gates at 9:00am. The food had already arrived and eleven volunteers and clients went through a narrow side door that led through the kitchen into the quiet hall to tables covered with bread and a few vegetables. The one-dollar donation box was studiously avoided.
 
The bread was mostly dense high-quality two-day old bread that still smelt fresh. The limited amount of vegetables ranged from barely edible to quite decent.
 
Two girls and an adult began preparing the 12:00noon four-dollar lunch using plenty of meat while others sat at the tables in the hall. A volunteer asked one table of people to let me sit with them since I was new there. The answer was negative so I left.
 
But before leaving, the leading volunteer offered me two 600ml cartons of chocolate milk one-week before the Best-By date, two containers of non-dairy yoghourt and frozen ribs. I declined the latter, but accepted the other two products.
 
For those that eat meat, they got a good amount of protein that is often lacking in the diets of the Davoren Park underclass.
 
It is quite a nice place and the Wednesday drop-in morning is also worth going to if you want to sit quietly with others and drink coffee. They also have a Monday morning coffee club where they have occasional guest speaks and which costs a one-dollar donation.
 
This is a pre-Corona Virus shut-down report.

“Don’t forget your toilet paper,” one of the few remaining Aboriginal men laughs as a Chinese woman walks by wearing a face mask.
 
The atmosphere is eerily quiet with most of the Aborigine and mixed-race crowd of drunks absent after Tuesday’s stabbing and the previous week’s death of the man run over by a bus outside the Stockade Hotel, next to us.
 
Two police officers scan our crowd of seven loiterers for the blue-eyed Aborigine who just left after getting a chocolate doughnut.
 
Our conversation roams uncomfortably as the preacher, who is also an ambulance officer, says there is no stopping the Corona Virus, but the government hopes to slow it down to prevent the hospital system being overwhelmed.
 
Old Val strokes and pokes certain men. Wayne the Wheel Man storms off to the Stockade hotel with $30 to pour into the poker machines.
 
The free food includes Chris the Coptic Christian mother’s lentil soup that includes pureed onions, garlic and chilis. That day’s bread and expensive pastries are from a bakery at Modbury. But no coffee.
 
This soup service is in severe decline because the Victory Church stopped supporting it and removed the BBQ trailer, and church volunteers have been influenced to withdraw despite a few remaining members continuing a reduced service.  
 
Salisbury railway station free soup (Formerly Victory Church BBQ)
Currently just soup, bread and coffee as the church has withdrawn from the service and the remaining volunteers are re-establishing the service.
Fridays 5:45 to at least 7:00pm. Free. A wide range of clients, not just alcoholics.
On the footpath between the Stockade Hotel carpark and the Salisbury railway station.
Near the corner of John and Gawler Streets, Salisbury.
Christians bless and pray for those who want it. Constant array of interesting people passing through. A refreshing event. Mosquitoes. Cold in winter.
Filthy gov’t toilets at railway station and slightly less filthy ones in the Stockade Hotel.

Thief steals Kevin’s bicycle
​at Salisbury

A thief stole Kevin’s $600 bicycle outside a pokies joint while he was inside liberating coins from the machine trays. He’s collected $600 over the past year, enough for a new bike.
 
He came straight over to Fred’s Van after discovering the theft. Soan from Fiji and a mutual friend gave him a lift home.
 
There wasn’t much sympathy from strangers for the 20-year-old hit and killed by a bus on the road between the Stockade Hotel and Maranello Pizza Restaurant. He’d been running after liberating a bottle of plonk from the hotel when the bus hit him though a white fella black fella says this isn’t true. There is a memorial on Gawler Street for him with flowers, messages and empty beer bottles.
 
The takeaway free food room was about the worst ever with one patron saying the food has been diverted to farm animals on Kangaroo Island. But it has been bad for nearly a year. The druggie homeless couple grabbed extra pastries, the man saying, “We’re homeless, we’re homeless,” so no one stopped them.
 
Mick of Mick and Denise was in hospital after eating pumpkin. Old Val kicked Tricky Mick in the leg whereupon he shouted in anger that his leg was covered in ulcers. The man who pisses his pants tried to borrow five-dollars as he’d spent everything on the poker machines. A white fella who walks the streets at night said that a dozen Asian drug dealers were arrested in a park.
 
The seating arrangement inside the dining hall has changed giving more room to move about. Luckily, there were less guests for what appeared less chairs. They should open the second dining room behind the kitchen.
 
The meal was Maranello pizza, hot dogs, chips, fresh salad, Coleslaw, ice cream and canned fruit, coffee and biscuits. Staff were polite and receptive. Everything was good except that we were rushed through the courses and prompted to leave.
 
Orange Sky Laundry was absent again and there was just one client waiting for them.

Corona Virus effect on Adelaide free food venues

Fred’s Van indoor meals going outdoors during Corona Virus emergency

Teresa Branch of Fred’s Van says they’re probably replacing the indoor Fred’s Vans with an outdoor service. They haven’t decided what form these will take.
 
If they operate outdoor barbecues like Fred’s Van at Gawler Place, and serve coffee, that will be fine. But if they simply hand out bags of stale bread sandwiches with practically no filling and a rotten apple, that will be bad.
 
Services affected are Kilburn Fred’s Van, Salisbury Fred’s Van, Wednesday Fred’s Van at Whitmore Square, Elizabeth Fred’s Van and others.

Elizabeth Anglicare Food Barn
​shuts down indoor meals
​for 30 days

There won’t be any indoor breakfasts or lunches at the Food Barn for “30 days or until further notice”. Staff handed out small black garbage bags today containing two very old plums, an All-Natural Bakery bar and two margarine and vegemite sandwiches.
 
The coordinator said they weren’t allowed to put meat on the sandwiches in case it contained bugs. She wondered what she’d do with the Food Bank truck deliveries that morning. There was also an Oz Harvest truck being unloaded. She was somewhat sad.
 
The Food Bank store was open. The security guard wore blue rubber gloves. The volunteers were absent except for the man with the faulty heart.
 
Matt and Gloria weren’t happy even before they discovered the closure and Matt spun the tyres of his truck in the gravel as he left.
 
However, the Anglicare operations including the Food Barn will probably copy Fred’s Vans where the indoors meals are being replaced by takeaway bags of sandwiches and other items. What remains to be seen is whether they are any good or not.

Unhappy atmosphere
​at Peterswool Road free food

Just half the usual crowd turned up at the Seventh-day Adventist church in Elizabeth Park for the free bread and vegetables. They gave away bread and pastries baked yesterday, Cos lettuce, onions, string beans, Coke, cold uncooked chickens (deceased), non-dairy yoghourt and pizzas.
 
A reduced contingent of staff wore makeshift facemasks made from serviettes. None were smiling. Ticket numbers were said verbally, but no physical tickets handed out. One client had half her large breasts exposed. Staff told us to leave once we’d gotten the free stuff.

Mark’s plan to make money from being hit by cars has unforeseen consequence

Mark used to eat at Chat and Chew in Port Adelaide. That was some years back. He lived in the same group of Housing Trust units as another diner. Her name was Old Betsy. She drank alcohol and was bad tempered.
 
Mark had a problem with money. He couldn’t understand coins and notes. He wondered why service in cafes was mediocre. He hadn’t any money. He had a plastic card, but hadn’t much idea about how it worked.
 
Yet despite this idiot-like disability, he was good with arithmetic. So good that he was hired by a semi-benevolent criminal gang to manage their books. His Housing Trust unit provided an effectively disguised office.
 
His biggest mistake in life was listening to friends who told him he could make money from being hit by cars. Mark took their advice and got some life insurance. Lots of it. Then he stepped onto the road.
 
It wasn’t stepping onto the road that was the mistake. His mistake was choosing the wrong vehicle to hit him. He should have started with an invalid scooter or a bicycle then worked his way up to cars. Instead his first collision was with a truck.
 
Mark got lots of money from his first hit, but is unable to understand his success because he now lives in a nursing home and eats through a straw. He can barely remember the day of the week.

More waste of taxpayer money
​at Rexcel Training

An employee at Rexcel Training, a government-funded business attached to the Job Active network (formerly the Job Network), said she was hired as a “trainer”, like a school teacher.
 
Once in the job, she discovered her job was more to recruit unemployed people on the dole for courses rather than teach. The Rexcel Training business required her to meet quotas either to get participants in courses to guarantee government funding or get them kicked off welfare.
 
She gave notice, which is said to be 30-days during which she was expected to train her replacement in “recruiting”.
 
Generally, the courses at these shonky outfits tend to be lowest common denominator training such as how to use a mobile phone with and fines issued to anyone 15 minutes late. Choosing who must attend these courses is subject to the training business needing to meet monthly quotas. And this results in a high staff turnover as “trainers” quickly realise the fake nature of the programs.
 
These wasted billions of dollars should instead be spent on infrastructure and industry development that targets unemployed people to fill vacancies.

St Bede’s roaring Tuesday
 
There were seven volunteers in the kitchen, all effectively cooking and serving customers. The breakfast included bacon, potato fritters, scrambled and fried eggs, grilled sandwiches, cereals, yoghourt and chopped fruit (none rotten). The coffee was the highest quality freeze dried instant variety and the milk was fresh and not long life. The mugs are clean as they threw away those old stained cups. Salt and pepper shakers, sauce and serviettes and cutlery were on each table. The cutlery was wrapped in serviettes to reduce Corona Virus transmission.
 
The dining room has 30 chairs and 5 tables, but effectively can hold about 26 people at any one time. It was at capacity with some people eating outside including the woman not wearing underwear. When some clients left, others took their place as the kitchen isn’t a grab and run operation, but operates continuously for over 90-minutes. Some dishes are still served over the last half-hour making it a two-hour social breakfast.
 
What makes St Bede’s on Tuesdays and Wednesdays superior is that they offer individual service to each guest. Food is being continuously cooked for individual preferences.  
 
Jill Rivers drove an invalid client to Centrelink in Port Adelaide. The preacher lady spent half an hour talking to a disheveled traveler woman. Homeless Lil was back and played table tennis. This aging homeless woman is fit and trim and her reflexes sharp. (I thought she was stuffed). She took plenty of residual used clothing from the stage that no one else wants.
 
The free takeaway food included bread, potatoes, 2-minute noodles, broccoli, cucumbers (Lurch pretended one was part of his anatomy) and carrots.
 
Jayne has returned after being taken away by ambulance. She had breathing problems and something wrong in her back, but has recovered. It was the same day police took away Homeless Lil, but later let her go. They’re both quality humans in their own way.

The Least Active Volunteer at St Bede’s Drop-in-Centre tried to escape work for the dole. He nears retirement age and his severe skeletal condition restricts him from doing physical work apart from a lifting a few light chairs and even that becomes too much for him.

The word “woman” has become politically incorrect as it offends transgender women who are men with their testicles removed and artificial vaginas constructed and who receive female hormone injections.
 
They feel excluded by the term “woman” so the correct description for both normal and transgender women is “persons of female persuasion”.
 
Using the old-fashioned usage can break a bureaucrat’s career.

The Victory Church at Parafield held a consolation meeting for former volunteers at its free BBQ on Friday evenings at the Salisbury railway station.
 
Management cancelled the BBQ for unspecified reasons. Insiders say the cancellation had nothing to do with the Stockade Hotel or the Salisbury Council.
 
Notably, the church held the consolation meeting on Friday at 6:00pm when residual church members have continued a lesser free food service. The meeting took away the man who makes the lentil soup.

The Anglicare retirement unit that has been empty for two years has been tenanted with a refugee. Anglicare had refused to rent the unit to anyone else for the past two years due to a long-pending demolition of the complex.
 
The refugee will soon be moved to a better place. Redevelopment of the complex has been delayed due to a conflict with the Playford Council about the removal of a heritage tree.
 
The remaining Australian citizen elderly tenants haven’t a clue when they will be transferred as Anglicare is virtually incommunicado.

Another day working at Savers at Tea Tree Plaza
From an insider

“A Savers customer became angry about not getting a discount so she threw the stuff in the air and said it was all filthy and why didn’t they clean it.
 
“The girl [checkout operator] didn’t know whether to call for assistance. She went red in the face. She didn’t know whether to run for her life. The people behind her spread out to the other cash register.
 
“Then this customer walks away and she goes up to the sanitiser on the wall and she starts cursing because the thing was empty. She said, ‘How can I sanitise my hands when the thing is empty. I don’t want to get the plague or the pox after handling all that shit and garbage on the f***ing counter?’
 
“She goes back to the counter and says, ‘You can keep all this f***ing shit. I don’t want it.’ So she hooks up with this bloke and she starts swearing and cursing at him and then she goes up to this other f****** sanitiser and that it came out as a spray and it f****** sprayed all over the f****** front of her. She says, ‘Even that f****** thing don’t work properly.’
 
“So she storms off through the back part where all the furniture is and she says, ‘Look at all this furniture sh** and garbage. Half of this sh** should be burnt. Why is it in this place? You’ll never sell any of this f****** rubbish. Just throw it out back in the rubbish bin.’
 
“The cookware. They shouldn’t display it. It isn’t worth buying to cook in. You couldn’t. That’s why it’s been tossed out, dumped. Savers don’t even clean it.
 
“The pictures, along the bottom at the front there is a layer of dust. The back is completely covered in dust. Someone took it off the wall and donated it. It’s ended up out the back, they’ve look at it, put a sticker on it and then it out the front to sell it, not bothered to dust it down or clean it. One picture this morning, there were dead bugs on the back of it.”

MRS TELSTRA EXONERATED

From the anonymous contact page

“Mrs Telstra has often been accused of hoarding toilet
paper.

“With retailers under huge pressure due to toilet paper
shortages, it seems that Mrs Telstra has exercised
wonderful foresight and wisdom.

“Her protractors (Westcare, Westcare Church, Wayne,
Willows, etc...) are now referred to as THE GREAT UNWIPED, having all developed crappy crackies from
toilet parer shortages.

“Mrs Telstra, who considers cleanliness is next to Godliness, now has a holier than thou attitude toward her above named protractors.

“Also, she has a handsome friend Michael she meets at
Westcare. She has been seen handing him 12 roll toilet
paper packs. This seems to irritate all at Westcare when
they cant wipe their own butts ! However, Michael is
flattered by such a gesture from a millionairess and
seems smug over her discernment.”

“It broke my heart when they took them away,” said a woman aged about 35. She was leaving a soup kitchen to attend a Child Protection “parenting evaluation” test. “I can’t wait to get them back.”
 
Another woman of similar age had hands resembling those of a 70-year-old. “I’m 36 and already have emphysema,” she said. “And epilepsy.” There is no self-pity in her voice as she asks her sister, “Did I take my medication this morning?”

One Life free food at Parafield Gardens
 
The elderly German man said he didn’t lock the toilet door because he didn’t want to touch the handle when making an exit. It might be covered with Coronavirus. He gave a short speech advising everyone not to kiss, shake hands or stand within six-feet of each other in case the bugs jumped from an infected person via saliva.
 
A Malay woman said she thought the Coronavirus scare was manipulation so billions of people will get immunised and make the drug companies trillions. “It gets old men,” I told her husband.
 
There was free hot Moccona instant coffee in thick paper cups.
 
Pat Tickman was there. She’s in her 80’s while half the others were over 70. It is ironical that most clients are on the pension and living reasonably well while the more desperate young people on the dole avoid these places.
 
A pleasant women, aged about 37, issued tickets up to about number 36. Clients were allowed to take stuff from the tables ten at a time starting with numbers 1-10. But these first ten, most of whom were at least 75-years-old, grabbed over half of the fruit and vegetables leaving the other half for 25 clients.
 
And instead of staying 6-feet from each other as advised by the senior German, the queue resembled a conga line of homosexuals.

The Food Barn at Elizabeth
 
The young druggie couple pushing their shopping trolley arrived for lunch. Sitting at the table, they turned to each other while bowing their heads. They talked of Semaphore and he said something that made her smile.
 
The druggies’ table in the corner was occupied by a less dangerous version of the old crowd. There is a constant flow-through as druggies either die, go to jail, move interstate, go into hiding, go to rehabilitation, or to other free food joints. They’re a nice crowd once you understand areas of conversation not to enter, which is almost everything.
 
Amanda the AMA guard walked through the room giving certain diners the hard eye then went behind the counter and served food. For the first time in over a year he relaxed and smiled. Too bad he couldn’t get paid for serving food.
 
The trays of baked pasta and vegetables resembled a European oil painting of fine food. Joe wasn’t there, but the Barn was serving hot chili sauce at the counter. Gloria was also gone having got the sack. Even working for nothing has demands. I miss her wild laughing.
 
One diner wants to return to a nursing home. He’d previously lived in one, but got kicked out when his wife wrote about other inmates on a website.
 
The sleek Somalian woman with white teeth that stick outward from her gums sat at our table. No one talked to her in case the situation got out of hand and they were accused of being racist.
 
The genial chubby druggie man with the tall girlfriend went to the men’s ablution room where he washed his hands, but didn’t use the toilet. When he reached the crowded main foyer in front of the reception desk, he said to the passing deceased Supreme Court judge’s son, “I wish I had a bum the size of yours,” and then, “I shouldn’t have said that.” The judge’s son is ultra-slim.
 
George the Elder said there was a shortage of volunteers both at the Food Barn and at the Salvation Army in the city. It might be the extended documentation and indoctrination process that volunteers have to go through to work for nothing. This process is to stop child molesters and drug dealers from infiltrating these joints.

The magic word
 
Have you ever wondered why everything to do with welfare is called an “emergency”? Free food is frequently referred to as “emergency” food. Bureaucrats won’t tell you this, but if you check the fine print on assistance applications you’ll find the word.
 
Using this word allows them to put you into the class of desperate and needy. This is not a good classification. It allows them to share your personal data, make rude enquires of other government-funded agencies and generally treat you as a reduced person with reduced civil liberties. It also allows them to collect special government funding.
 
Imagine if they told the government they gave away unhealthy food to fat people with diabetes. It might be the truth, but it wouldn’t attract another year of funding.
 
So, when you visit the larger “non-profits” you’ll be picking up a “emergency” rotting cabbage and “emergency” 2-minute noodles.

Salisbury Fred’s Van
 
Cambodian Jenny sparked outrage by getting 12 pieces of Maranello pizza when most others got one. She’s taking over from Shuffle’s table as the most rapacious diners.
 
The meal included the pizza, a nice salad made without rotting vegetables, a mince stew, a much-hated tuna mornay half-cooked and without much tuna, an excellent trifle and ice cream. There were also biscuits and coffee, the former of which Cambodian Jenny sparked more reaction.
 
An obese woman asked for a smoke to whom Jenny accused of “scabbing”. The woman had been sitting outside the shopping centre when the Horse Trainer Lady told her about Fred’s Van. The Horse Trainer walks around Salisbury collecting the lost and destitute and giving them food or taking them to free food joints.
 
The teenage bee keeper was there with his mother and father. A young Indian woman of normal appearance served coffee with Luisa and an old man named Stephen.
 
A strange phenomenon was two girls aged about six running around the dining room. Some diners cast stern gazes in their direction, but running around seemed normal, better than the eat, eat, eat attitude of nearly everyone else, half of whom are diabetics. The kids weren’t allowed to leave the dining room for fear of paedophiles and abductors, and those carrying diseases.
 
The toilets were greasy as if the cleaners hadn’t cleaned the walls and door handles for years. The queue for the takeaway food was half its size from a year ago due to nothing much to offer except rotting vegetables though there was a display of free children’s clothing and some curtains. The curtains were snapped up quickly, possibly to replace newspaper or bed sheets over the windows.

Destroying democracy
 
The Australian democracy isn’t being destroyed by a military commander taking over the government. It is being destroyed by government departments and government-funded “non-profits” incrementally taking away individual privacy on one hand and open administration on the other.
 
Anglicare controls thousands of houses and units that it obtained from state governments or filched from unwary private housing associations that fell into its orbit.
 
They inspect tenants’ toilets and showers every six-months advising in advance that the tenant must not have visitors or friends present during the inspection. They tell the tenants that inspection times cannot be changed and if the tenant is not at home the Lifestyle Inspectors will enter with their own keys.
 
The tenants are required to sign a document after the inspection. This document was previously on paper, but now is on a tablet. Tenants are not shown the contents of the document, but told to simply sign it.
 
Tenants requesting information by phone usually get an answering machine leaving the employee with the power to phone the tenant when he or she feels fit, often catching the tenant doing something else and distracted. Emails are ignored as this leaves an electronic paper trail.
 
This is how democracy is destroyed.

Lifepoint free vegetables at Modbury
 
The joint was hopping. Nothing like the 500 they get at each of their first and second services every Sunday, but nevertheless very busy. Even the Anglicare disability crowd needed two tables. The barista coffee women had a 15-minute backlog. And the diners were not of the eat-and-run type despite there not being any sandwiches, just cakes on the tables.
 
They’ve introduced a card system. Each person gets a card at the entry door that allows one bag of free fruit, vegetables and bread. This is to counteract those who spend 90-minutes going back and forth and leaving with five bags. It was just as well as supplies were low, but everything was of edible quality, better than some stores.
 
The clients included shy old women, very unshy women, disabled or brain-damaged adults with African carers, the Elizabeth Food Barn crowd, remnants of the Crony Gang from City Salvos and a rare species: a white man and a white woman with their own child. And they were normal.  
 
A church woman told me about the war in Liberia where soldiers chopped off ears and fingers. She says at last she can sleep easily at night.
 
Entry to the morning tea requires two signatures: one for the coffee and cakes and another for the fruit and vegetables. Signatures are a way the church proves to their suppliers and supporters that they had the number of guests they claim. But they no longer require I.D. and a person can theoretically use a false name. The church gets virtually no funding and expenses are paid by the parishioners especially by the man and woman who collect the stuff during the week and also take it to other free food venues and shelters.
 
Returning to Elizabeth I felt relaxed as there hadn’t been any threats at the church yet I realised I’d been mildly uneasy because of the unusual atmosphere. But I felt a sense of relief and of being home when at the Elizabeth shopping centre the familiar ring of Ice addicts screaming at each traveled across the carparks.

The Lutheran Ark at Salisbury
 
Mick, formerly of Mick and Denise, was in pain. He reached down to the floor then couldn’t get up without help. He said he’d used 95 Panadol Osteo in one day to kill the pain without success. Then he tried a bottle of whisky. And then he ended up back in hospital.
 
He and Denise were hit by a car in November 2019 while walking across the road in front of Modbury Hospital. They were visiting a patient, but ended up being patients themselves and being carried inside on two ambulance trolleys. Tricky Mick went with them, but they left angrily after being accused of stealing surveillance devices, of which they were innocent.
 
Mick and Denise both lack literacy and social skills and have been unable to obtain adequate medical care or compensation.
 
Meanwhile, Shuffles grabbed the Ritz crackers from our table and poured them into a plastic container. She is normal in every way except this peculiar habit. Ruel visited The Ark for the first time and was popular with everyone despite moving to a table by himself. This was a big change from his horrible experience at the Salisbury Uniting Church. Stormy Summers’ ex-boyfriend left early for the Global Care sausage sizzle at Parafield Gardens. Former STA bus driver, Les, said he was the only one at the Salvation Army Friday meal at Parafield Gardens on Friday. He meant he was the only one from our crowd.
 
Some diners avoided a blued-eyed older woman who rarely washes. She worked as a gardener until struck by depression then went on psychiatric drugs. To top it off, her father died last Christmas day.
 
The meal included thick slices of pork, two salads, boiled peas, bread and margarine, boiled potatoes, pasta bake with or without meat, Coleslaw, ice cream and chocolate cake. It appeared to be all good stuff and not from Food Bank, Oz Harvest or Second Bite except maybe for the bread.

Robbing the clients at
​Service-to-Youth Council

An insider said that managerial staff at Helping Young People Achieve (HYPA) in Adelaide stole money from welfare clients by charging them 45% of their income for rent instead of 30%. The managers didn’t keep the money themselves, but used it to bolster the organisation’s finances and their standing in it.
 
Service to Youth Council (SYC) is the parent body of Helping Young People Achieve (HYPA). SYC was involved in a series of vicious takeover bids of SkillShare groups in the late 1980’s and early 1990’s and the harsh and corrupt culture within the organisation continues.
 
Former Service to Youth Council director of corporate strategy in Adelaide, Michael Scott Lawson Clark, received a salary of $282,000 a year, but still stole $350,000 from the charity. He was sentenced to two-years non-parole and most likely will be released from jail next year.  
 
Earlier this month, an old man went to HYPA in Elizabeth East. They had invited everyone and anyone to pick up the free rotting vegetables delivered by Oz Harvest. But when he did this an employee told him that, “We want to close this because our clients don’t want this and you people can go elsewhere.” Yet they had invited this old man and others, but cast them aside when it wasn’t collecting statistics that supported their salaries.
 
There is nothing kind about Service-to-Youth Council and it is not a charity. It is a cabal that masquerades as a so-called “non-profit” and which derives its income from government funding.

Monthly free food market closes as food goes to farm animals

The Salvation Army has stopped their monthly free market day in the city until further notice. The surplus and old food is instead going to farm animals affected by the bushfires.
 
The free food morning has been a major fixture in hundreds of human lives for the past few years.
 
The decision was made by Food Bank and suppliers and not by the Salvation Army according to a derelict at Salisbury Fred’s Van.

The Night Talker on prisons

“…be factual.

“Yatala labour prison, has always been and is still a prison for men (at least for the last 148 years) Women offenders are housed at the Northfield Women's Prison, which is about a one and a half km down the road. Prior to women being housed in the prison around 1987, the women were housed in a separate section of the Old Adelaide Jail (which also carried out hangings).
 
“The only woman to ever be hanged at Adelaide Jail was Elizbeth Woolcock, who was accused of murdering her violent alcoholic husband by putting Antimony cleaning fluid (Mercury) into his food over a period of weeks. in 1873. Elizabeth was hung at the Old Adelaide Jail on December the 30th 1873. There was and remains to this day, doubt, that Elizabeth did indeed deliberately poison her husband.
 
“In 2010, a petition was put together by the local townspeople of Moonta (where Elizabeth had lived with her husband before her arrest) to enact a posthumous pardon. Signatures were gathered and duly submitted to the then Governor General of South Australia (Michael Atkinson) who duly dismissed the request. It is said that the Ghost of Elizabeth Woolcock haunts the still standing cottage at Moonta, where she once lived.”

Daughter tried to grab her mother from the funeral
​to put in freezer at home

This elderly soup kitchen client said that relatives barred her way at the funeral to stop her grabbing her mother’s body from the coffin and take it home to put in her freezer. She knew her mum was too long, but could be bent over to fit into the chest freezer.
 
She was unhappy with her half-siblings, particularly with her half-brother who was third-in-charge at St Peter’s Cathedral in Adelaide. He’d put their mother in a nursing home claiming she was senile, but the daughter had objected saying her mother hadn’t been senile, but grieving for her recently deceased husband. Being locked in a nursing home killed her, the freezer daughter said. That’s why she wanted to take the body.

St Bede’s free breakfast at Semaphore
 
A man waiting for the doors to open was angry because Centrelink had stopped his welfare payments because he’d been 15-minutes late for a “Back on Track” two-week course. He was also angry because the course included irrelevant sessions on how to use a phone. He said he made $17,000 in government bonuses for the Job Active contractor when he’d previously got two jobs and now, they were treating him like this.  
 
The Least Active Volunteer has lost two-thirds of his eyesight in one eye after failed surgery. The vision loss corrects itself by lunch then reverts the next morning.
 
Two elderly ping pong players avoided the new volunteer named Kim. His expertise is destroying the old players’ illusions of being the best in the building.
 
The free clothing on the stage has deteriorated to a pile of silly dancing shoes and dull children’s clothing. New supplies are sold in Bede’s Bazaar that occupies former priest Ken Bechaz’s room. Bede’s Bazaar financially helps maintain the church and the free morning breakfasts. Froot café on Semaphore Road anonymously also sponsors St Bede’s Drop-in-Centre so anyone dining at Froot is supporting those who go to the St Bede’s free breakfasts.
 
A senile diner’s left eye is folding outward, exposing the delicate flesh to the elements. Another well-liked diner has shriveled to skin and bones. The high levels of sickness and deaths at free soup kitchens is similar to being in a nursing home, except the deaths come at an earlier age.
 
Wednesday is the best day for free bread as it was baked on Monday or Tuesday. Tuesday’s free bread is from the previous week and smells sour.

(above) Baptist Pathway say “All client records are stored in access controlled areas accessible only to approved staff.” Then why were clients recently ordered to provide their personal information all over again? When asked, an employee laughed that the client’s personal records had been lost due to a “computer glitch”.

The Night Talker on prison guards
 
“Further to female prisoner has guards helping her "sue" Nanna's Free Food Basket......

“Just a couple of anomalies with your story. If the offender was on a "work for the dole program" she cannot take legal action "directly" against "Nanna's Free Food Basket," as by law she (aka the offender) has been contracted out to them by a third party (her Job Network Provider) who would have organised a set contract in line with JNA requirements and then Nanna's Free Food Basket."
Secondly she is not an employee and not a volunteer, so she isn't covered under any kind of work-cover provisions, so she can't claim for compensation of any kind, against these parties (or would find it extremely difficult to enact).
 
“Thirdly, in order to lodge legal action (inadvertently) against her JNA, she (and or the Lawyer acting on her behalf) has to first find the original contract that was made been the offender, the JNA and "Nanna's Free Food Basket." This information, currently comes under Federal Government Privacy and Confidentiality Legislation and although she (or her lawyer) could request an FOI, it costs around $300.00 and takes up to 90 days to be finalized. It can also be rejected on the grounds that providing this information, could prove detrimental, to the JNA in question.
 
“Finally, any correctional officer (male or female) who is seen to be actively helping an offender in regards a legal case, is in serious breach of their duty of care provisions, would be questioned in regards accessing confidential information (including information lodged about the Respondent which I imagine, would be Bronwyn Plate) and it would also raise serious questions, in regards as to whether the officers involvement constitutes a conflict of interest situation.
 
“The Department of Correctional Services does (and always has) taken matters of conflict of interest between staff and offenders very seriously, and if found to be substantiated, the risk of the officer losing their employment, is very real. I wouldn't be helping any of these offenders out, as I am sure that if I lost my job for doing so, they wouldn't be sending me a "sorry" card and waiting outside of Centrelink for me, after I have lodged by application for Newstart!”

A volunteer at Nanna’s Free Food Basket in Semaphore Park said that Rose and Bronwyn argued last month when Bronwyn said it was her free food service and she made the decisions.
 
Rose is a former high-flyer in the transport industry, but Bronwyn Plate started the free service from the back of her Housing Trust unit in Semaphore Park.  Both women work hard and have managerial skills. The basket is an excellent free food service despite bickering amongst volunteers prior to opening time on Wednesdays.
 
Meanwhile, the Free Food Basket sent a volunteer to collect information on a former volunteer they’ve accurately deemed as a mortal enemy to their operation.

Guards help prisoner prepare to sue Nanna’s Free Food Basket

Guards at the Adelaide Women’s Prison at Northfield have helped a prisoner prepare legal papers in preparation to sue Nanna’s Free Food Basket.
 
She was a work-for-the-dole participant at the Basket that operates out of the Bower Cottages in Semaphore Park. Others in the Basket conspired to get her put into prison, but still use her image in their social media propaganda. This is the lesser complaint, but the major complaint will be dealt with by the prisoner when she is released form the slammer.
 
The whole regretful affair has been a tragic event that is yet to run its course.

Salisbury free soup ute not dead yet
 
It appeared to be the end of the road. The soup utes arrived with just one customer waiting: a correspondent for Adelaide Homeless Journal. That wasn’t a real customer.
 
Then some of the usual crowd came out of the Salisbury woodwork, not everyone, but an improvement on the previous week. There was the Horse Trainer Lady who prowls the rubbish bins until midnight, the Anglican Archdeacon’s sister, Raoul (Ruel), the Wheel man, a thin addict out of his mind permanently, a rooming house man who cannot speak, two City Salvos clients, frail one-legged Adam and a bunch of desperadoes. The lost and poor is how some churches describe us.
 
Ruel complained about planes from the military air base shaking his building like a 6.5 magnitude earthquake. He said the military must fiddle with their exhausts to make more noise. He didn’t know that the person he spoke to was a current crew member of a military plane.
 
The man who pisses his pants pissed his pants. He is beyond understanding how this results in being ostracised. A 75-year-old woman said she’d never been out of Adelaide, but hoped her son would take her to Cudlee Creek in the Adelaide hills.
 
Another woman told Peter Dawkins that she knew what he was going to say, which was that she should think of other people. She said no one ever helped her so why should she care about others. When Marten the Magnificent cited a newspaper report of a train crash, she began crying, thinking he was referring to the man who killed his three children and estranged wife.
 
Our hosts included former and current members of the Victory Church, which no longer sponsors the service. The volunteers collect the bread and pastries from a bakery and apparently pay for the soup and coffee themselves. They called upon Jesus to heal those who were interested as bemused train passengers jumped into waiting cars.
 
Whether one believes the Christian message or not, it takes courage for the soup ute people to practice their faith in such a public place.
 
Salisbury railway station free soup (Formerly Victory Church BBQ)
Currently just soup, bread and coffee as the church has withdrawn from the service and the remaining volunteers are re-establishing the service.
Fridays 5:45 to at least 7:00pm. Free. A wide range of clients, not just alcoholics.
On the footpath between the Stockade Hotel carpark and the Salisbury railway station.
Near the corner of John and Gawler Streets, Salisbury.
Christians bless and pray for those who want it. Constant array of interesting people passing through. A refreshing event. Mosquitoes. Cold in winter.
Filthy gov’t toilets at railway station and slightly less filthy ones in the Stockade Hotel.

Burnside Council phasing out shopping bus for geriatrics

The Burnside community bus has been taking geriatrics shopping for a return fee of $3.00. But volunteer drivers have been required less and less as they are replaced by paid drivers from MyAgedCare contractors using their own cars to take the geriatrics shopping individually then sending a whopping bill to the government.
 
One volunteer driver recently made redundant said he didn’t care because that gave him an extra day at the Adelaide Casino where he’s been racking up nearly a hundred dollars a week clear profit on the free horseracing game.
 
The aim of Adelaide Casino is to get old people habituated to easily winning money in the hope they’ll start playing the pokies and pour their life savings down the drain.

Port Adelaide Enfield Council orders homeless campers
​to leave beach carpark

The woman on the phone at the Port Adelaide Enfield Council office said they had begun a “big investigation” into those sleeping in their cars in the Semaphore beach carparks. She asked me if anyone was in danger in the carparks.
 
I told her that a Council employee had told the homeless campers to leave, but she said the “Community Safety Team” was only investigating the situation and not forcing the campers to move. She said they didn’t want to merely shunt the homeless campers to another place.
 
I told her that the campers were mostly old and with major physical illnesses. She wanted to know if they abused substances or alcohol. I said there was no indication of this when they came to St Bede’s, but added that statistically a certain percentage of the population used various such products whether they live in houses or cars.
 
We talked about differentiating between older Australian homeless citizens and younger foreign backpackers camping in the carpark. She said those erecting annexes next to their vans might be fined and that campers shouldn’t leave items around their vehicle at night, or any time. I suggested the toilets should be left open until midnight and opened at 6:00am to discourage urinating on the grass.
 
She thanked me for calling and said that most people wanted the campers gone.
 
And that is where differentiating between the foreign backpackers and homeless Australians is crucial. One group live here and the other is passing through.

An uneven trade for stale bread
 
A man bought three DVD’s at the Treasure store at the Baptist Pathway community centre at Modbury North. He saw a table that said, “Free bread, please help yourself.” There was a proviso to the free offer that ordered the recipient leave an item of value in exchange for the bread.
 
The man took a bag of rolls, but left nothing. A volunteer challenged him. The man said he’d bought some DVD’s and that was enough. The volunteer disagreed, but the man took the rolls anyway and later gave them to someone else because Lifepoint down the road was giving away fresher bread.
 
And when we were leaving Pathway, a woman client pushed a trolley to her car containing decent looking free vegetables. And the Baptists let Lifepoint use their carpark for their overflow Sunday services.

Jesus of Dublin living in a cinema

A reliable source has told me that in a former country railway town Jesus of Dublin is currently living with several of his apostles, (Including Mary of Blythe and Simon and Peter of Bute) in an abandoned Cinema, in an (undisclosed) country town 400 odd km, north of Adelaide.
 
“Another rumour (which cannot be verified at this point in time) is that Commie Kev of the Brinkworth Free Footpath exchange library) has set up acetylene lighting/heating and got the old projector going.
 
“Locals of this town say they can hear sounds coming from inside the (locked up) building but nobody is game enough to go inside, because the locals believe the place to be haunted due to an ongoing urban legend, that states, that the ghost of a former projectionist (a facially disfigured, returned world war one soldier) who was alleged to have committed suicide in the projection room of the cinema, in the early 1920's, still haunts the building......

“Another rumour that cannot be verified either, is that locals have stated that Rosemary is growing through the cracks in the concrete path outside the building. Rosemary is considered to be a holy flower connected to both Mary mother of Jesus and Mary of Magdala, (Mary Magdalene).

Ice addict couple steal bikes at Semaphore

A woman aged approximately 19 and a man 22, used a hammer to smash the locks on two bicycles outside the Semaphore Library. They rode them to Fred’s Van at St Bede’s Church on Sunday evening without any problems. St Bede’s is where two bicycles owned by Fred’s Van volunteers were also stolen from inside the hall two-months previously.
 
The couple returned on Tuesday morning for the free breakfast. The young woman sat against the church with her legs spread wide. She wasn’t wearing underwear. One client described them as rats.

Codeine and Heroin are both refined products of Opium, which is a flower and the list goes on and on and on (e.g. digitalis for heart problems is created from the chemicals found in the foxglove flower.

All participants in weird job search course disappear without a trace
The Night Talker

“A certain northern suburbs Council, (Whose name rhymes with Wayford) were running a series of free workshops for unemployed persons, living in the North and Outer North of Adelaide.
 
“Other than needing to prove you lived in the North/Outer North of Adelaide and were unemployed, there were no restrictions on who could attend and no cost.
 
“These workshops were about making resumes and applying for work and were running from 9.00am until 5.00pm, every Wednesday in this particular council's chambers and by all accounts, the workshops were a great success. But ― there is always a but in there somewhere ― not for the reasons that most of us would equate with success.
 
“Yes, the workshops were filled to capacity each and every Wednesday, with attendees lining up outside the council building even before the front door of the building was unlocked by Security, then once security opened up the building at 8.45am, there was a mad rush, to get to a certain part of the building.
 
“Where was this? Down the hallway and past the toilets and into one of the meeting rooms. Why this mad rush? For tea/coffee/milo, Fruit Juice, cut up fruit and sandwiches.
 
“An insider who works for this particular council said it was like "Feeding time for Hyenas." Even worse than Puddle Jumpers. [Before they introduced the ticket system]. Like swarms of locusts, straight out of the Old Testament. Except the locusts were on two legs and most were dressed in washed out tops and tracky dacs and worn out, old sneakers.
 
“Within minutes everything was gone and the hot water and fruit juice receptacles, drained. What wasn't eaten there and then was stuffed into pockets or backpacks. Allegedly the same thing happened at the morning tea supplied and at lunch, where Subway sandwiches and rolls were provided, by the council catering team.
 
“This apparently went on for another two weeks, and the council states that not enough persons were attending the workshops (my friend said overcrowding not under-utilisation was the issue) to make them viable, so now they would only be running from 9am until midday, no breakfast, mid morning tea or lunch will be provided.
 
“Guess what happened? The following week, nobody showed up (that's right, nobody showed up and they had to send the trainer home, because he had nothing to do and nobody to teach. He wasn’t worried. He still got paid fifty-dollars an hour for the rest of the day not worked and a taxi home.

“What irks me, I have no doubt that catering costs money, in most instances (unless you want your participants to go bin diving or shoplifting in their lunch hour for a meal) but for most people, this kind of behaviour would have alarm bells ringing. Why are people so desperate for food and drink, they will actively, trample over others to get to it.
 
“My friend (the friendly informant) said anything food based was either eaten, drunk or stolen. Some attendees were clearly either homeless and on the streets or living in their cars/vans. Many who gorged themselves at breakfast, fell into an exhausted stupor during the workshops and didn't waken until lunch time, where they once again made a mad dash for the table which contained rolls, sandwiches, fruit juice, tea and coffee.
 
“My friend (aka the happy informant) said many just ate to fill themselves up, rather than sitting together during meal time, to share the company of others. Others chose to wrap up food in serviettes and place in their backpacks for later. One attendee was overheard saying he had several ham rolls in his bag, which he was going to feed to his dog when he got home later that evening.

“(Deleted) Barely Alive! (what a joke!) This council wants funding from the state government to build an ice skating ring??? Righto. Maybe you might want to reconsider this and instead build a mega sized, 24 hour a day, seven day a week food co-op, soup kitchen. My intuition tells me it is needed more than an ice skating rink allegedly going to cost $23 million.”

Steve Davids’s ceremony delayed
 
The scheduled ceremony commemorating the death two years ago of Steve Davids, the Barber of St Bede’s, was muted last month due to the chairs not arriving. Part of Steve’s money was being spent on chairs to be installed outside the church hall that hosts Fred’s Van on Sundays and the free Anglicare breakfasts on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. But the chairs didn’t arrive so it was postponed.

Housing Trust debt collectors' latest move on dead man

The Housing Trust's debt collectors, Australian Receivables Ltd, sent another letter to dead Anglicare tenant Bryn Hardiman. Dated 25 February 2020 the writer of the letter said, “Our client has instructed us that it would prefer to have this matter settled on an amicable basis without lawyers being appointed.”
 
Bryn might have agreed with that except that he was hit by a car in January 2019 and died on the spot.
 
The debt of $207.05 arose when Anglicare deemed Bryn’s son as not having cleaned up his father’s unit adequately and hired Gleem Services to remove some rubbish. Not that it really mattered because the unit has remained empty for the past 13-months and is due for demolition in a redevelopment of the retirement complex.
 
The South Australian Housing Trust came into the story because it had paid the bond for Bryn to Anglicare. Anglicare had collected Gleem’s rubbish removal charge of $207.05 from the Housing Trust bond by going to the South Australian Civil and Administration Tribunal (SACAT), an action that cost it much more than $207.05.
 
The Housing Trust now wants to get the money back and has hired Australian Receivables whose front of house employees included Swapna Joshi, Ghulan Mustafa, Bani Ghosain and Ryan Butcher. Its South Australia office is at16 Unley Road, Unley.
 
Australian Receivables is owned by Panthera Finance, which is part of the Panthera Group that owns Bill Chaser, which chases unpaid bills; Loan Solutions, which loans money to those with a bad debt record and might have been chased by Bill Chaser; and Uniting Funding Solutions, a mortgage broking firm that assists clients with debt consolidation and mortgage refinance.
 
Australian Receivables allegedly searches Facebook and the social media then contacts friends, relatives and employers saying they’re looking for you. Or even turns up at your favourite restaurant. You can imagine the type of people who do this job.
 
And they’re after deceased Bryn Hardiman who spent much of his last two years at the Salisbury RSL playing darts and drinking expensive beer before being hit by a car outside the Elizabeth RSL, a place he said brought him bad luck.
 
And it’s all over a bit of garbage removal from an Anglicare unit left empty and due for demolition anyway.

Kindness in a time of incontinuity
 
The small crowd was in a good mood and were let into the foyer early. The illiterate man who lives in the best house in Salisbury made a rare visit during a break in checking rubbish bins for valuables.
 
Three tough druggies spoke intensely while making little running motions against each other as if conferring during a battle. One told a volunteer that service was low and there wasn’t enough food. She replied: “If you don’t like it go somewhere else.”
 
Raoul (Ruel) was sadly not there nor at Salisbury Uniting Church or the railway station non-BBQ. His speech impediment and lack of social skills has isolated him from others especially those hard women who control the Uniting Church welfare section.
 
The Fred’s Van meal included hot dogs, salad, pasta, eggs and Coleslaw, but no bread. Salt and pepper shakers were brought to the table, but there weren’t enough for every table.
 
An old man played a biscuit game with Cambodian Jenny’s 5-year-old daughter. He wanted the biscuits to attack each other while she wanted the biscuits to be friends.
 
There is confusion between the coffee and food queues, the room was too crowded and they began packing up too early. The crowding could be fixed by using a second dining room behind the kitchen. The takeaway fruit and vegetables was the worst ever.
 
Outside, after the meal, an older woman discovered she’d lost her purse and money. She ran to McDonalds and other places asking if they’d found it. She wet her pants during the process. The man who also wets his pants, and had, offered her twenty-dollars. She said, no. She was in a panic. Nearly everyone had left when the volunteer who earlier had told the druggie to go somewhere else, put a towel on the front seat of her car and took the old woman home.

More nasty service at Salisbury Uniting Church Uniting-in-Care

They got a system. You take a number like at the deli section in Woolworths. They call your number and you get served.
 
I went there on a Wednesday for the free lunch. I missed them calling my number. Instead of calling the next number, an employee came into the middle of the dining room and began shouting. When I knew she was calling my number and walked toward her, she still shouted that because I’d not responded quicker, I was holding everyone else up, stopping them from being served. At least one elderly diner looked at me with anger.
 
I followed the shouter into the free grocery section guarded by an unsmiling black African woman. The shouting older white woman kept up that I’d held up others. Then I saw a notice on the wall and discovered I lived outside the boundaries of the Salisbury Council so was ineligible. That seemed to be another infringement that brought censure that attracted the glares of other workers.
 
The mood softened slightly and they gave me a sheet of paper that showed other free food places. It included the Anglicare Old Rectory building that closed down 16 months previously and Fred’s Van outside the Anglican church that had moved four years ago.
 
I returned to the dining room and tripped on a yellow bucket that had been placed in the aisle. “It’s yellow,” another church worker stated as another censure.
 
While I didn’t care about missing the free food that included rotting vegetables, old bread, junk food laced with sugar and MSG, the incident tainted my experience of the free lunch. And it wasn’t just me because the conversation was hushed in the dining room as the diners were wary of breaking some unspoken rule. As if we were in an oppressive institution.

Fiji man holds bare foot over table
 
The dark skinned Indian from Fiji kindly took off a shoe and sock and held his food over the table. The man with “cognitive impairment” wanted to know if the soles of his feet were white. They were. “You’re a white fella,” the cognitive impairmant man said.
 
Marten the Magnificent returned from the free takeaway food room with an empty bag. He’d gone in first and found what he described as “rubbish”.
 
Orange Sky laundry arrived at 4:20pm. They drove through the BankSA carpark and parked at the back door of the Salisbury Institute. The only problem was that the front doors are kept closed until 5:30pm so only those who knew to go in the back door could use the laundry at its start time of 4:30pm. However, on the Sunday before last they opened at 5:00pm.
 
There were less chairs and tables set up in the dining hall than usual so one homeless man walked out before getting a meal. He couldn’t take the hustle. Others took their plates to the foyer or outside the building. It wasn’t the Fred’s Van fault because many of the chairs were missing.
 
The hall is simply too crowded, always. The remedy is to use the secondary hall with tables and chairs already set up. That would solve the overcrowding.
 
The food was terrific and the staff respectful.

The Night Talker’s remedy
​for Coronavirus

“In the event of a worldwide SHTF (shit, hits the fan) outbreak of the Corona virus, here is what you need to do, to fight it off using easy to get your hands on products.

“CHILLI. I SAY AGAIN CHILLI! Buy it, grow it hoard it but have as much chilli as you can store. Chilli is a natural antibiotic, it has anti-microbial properties, it can be used as an emetic (to make someone vomit) and it can also reduce the intensity and duration of a fever. Chilli was being used in ancient times by Indian and Chinese doctors before the word "doctor" was even known in the Western World.

“Parsley. Parsley (any variety) is a natural diuretic, (removes excess fluid from the body) is effective against joint pain, can help bring a fever down, freshens the breath and kills plaque causing germs in the mouth.

“Any kind of tea containing tannins. (Black tea, Green Tea/Macha tea) Tannins are anti-microbial, tea can be used to treat minor burns (sitting someone in water steeped with tea leaves was a common practice to heal burns in time gone past) it is mildly diuretic (flushes out toxins)and has strong anti-radical properties.

“Apple cider and or Malt Wine/Red Wine Vinegar. In fact any kind of organic vinegar that still contains the "mother" (The bacteria that is needed to make the chemical process that changes the cider or wine to Vinegar) Strong anti-bacterial properties, can disinfect wounds, contains countless amino acids, is anti-microbial in nature and is effective in cooling the body down during the times of fever and can also be used to treat insect, sand fly and flea bites. Also, a good natural disinfectant for cleaning floors, toilets, sinks, kitchen tables and bath-tubs.

“Keep all of these products on hand. Add Chilli to pretty much all your food and drink as much tannin containing tea as you can. If you cannot purchase zinc or garlic rich foods, then stock up zinc, garlic and echinacea tablets. These are also very effective in fighting bugs. Remember folks, antibiotics are not effective against viruses and I doubt if a vaccine is going to be available (or be that effective) considering that this virus (like most others) constantly mutates and changes.”

The legacy of the Hutt Street Centre?
 
Apart from failing to lower the Adelaide inner city homeless rate, the Hutt Street Centre’s has over the years placed many homeless drug addicts and dealers into secure housing.
 
Some were placed into Unity and Housing Trust houses and apartments in Largs North and Taperoo.
 
One such tenant celebrated his housing success by inviting his drug dealer friends to his new house then over a four-year period threatened a neighbour until he became a nervous wreck. The neighbour stopped eating and drinking and was taken to the Crammond psychiatric clinic at the Queen Elizabeth hospital where he stayed for ten weeks. He didn’t returned to his home next to the junkies.
 
His mother told the drug dealer that she’d kill him if he harmed her son further.
 
The drug dealer phoned the police who arrived and interviewed the mother while taking a saliva sample to map her DNA. She told the police she didn’t have a criminal record and not even a parking ticket. They readily admitted the drug dealer had an extensive criminal record, but that he knew the law. And that because she behaved in a threatening manner, they were taking a sample of her DNA.

A group of her friends talk about calling the media to cover the story, but face two difficulties:
​
1) they’ve been trained from birth not to openly criticise those with power.
2) the legacy media will support the powers-that-be who support the Hutt Street Centre who support the drug dealers.

“This is like being with family,” said a homeless woman at St Bede’s drop-in-centre at Semaphore. She’d been a high-flyer in her earlier life, but says that had been all fake.

The Kill Box Lady’s daughter’s current husband’s head has ballooned like “Humpty Dumpty”. She was called to the nursing home because he’d stopped eating and was spitting out his food. He has throat cancer and doesn’t recognise anyone and is expected to die any week now.

Tatts and Angel are looking for a house. They live on the street. You can see them sleeping behind churches or on footpaths in the city of Adelaide. “Really want to live in a house,” Tatts says.

An eye specialist told a soup kitchen man that his sight in his right eye is permanently damaged. He’d had cornea surgery, but it had failed.

Urine dripped from a man’s trousers outside the Grand Junction Road OTR at Rosewater. He was drinking and eating and urinating at the same time.
 
A group of derelicts lived in the empty petrol station across the road until it was demolished.

The Kill Box Lady’s daughter’s jaw locks open when she talks. A surgeon plans to fix it, but the side-effect will be a mouth that won’t open fully and limits speech.

Lifepoint Church at Modbury has 600 seats, not enough for their Sunday service so they have multiple sessions. Nor do they have enough parking spaces so they plan to buy the fitness studio next door.
 
They’d expected 1100 people to hear a preacher from the U.S.A. He’s the one who prayed for Donald Trump at the White House. They got more than 1100.

The Chinese cremation industry has introduced plasma furnaces. The body is lowered into a bath of chemicals that turns it to slush that is poured into a hole in the ground.
 
Japanese-American journalist Yoichi Shimatsu suggested that the slush could be mined for lithium then used in phone batteries. You could call your phone, Mummy or Daddy.

Epstein had too much knowledge that he might have disclosed in order to avoid prison. He had to die.

Licourice Allsorts cure rash
 
The Kill Box Lady’s daughter fell out of bed and hurt her small toe. Her foot swelled up so she went to a doctor who told her not to worry about it. Meanwhile, the Kill Box Lady wants a transfer from her retirment unit because a neighbour called the police saying she was vacuuming at 6:00am. He's the neighbour who lit petrol on a neighbour’s lawn.
 
Another reason for a transfer is a rash on the Kill Box Lady’s legs. She says it’s the retirement unit that causes it, but has since cured it by eating licourice alsorts.

I won’t remember you
 
She said I could tell this story to you. She won’t remember giving permission and she doesn’t care, anyway. “It’s the truth,” she says.
 
She’s never won anything in her life except twelve bottles of beer when she was 15. She didn’t take the beer home for fear of her violent father getting hold of it. He was a Catholic alcoholic.
 
He found out, anyway, and hit her. She was a big girl, she says, much bigger than now, and she hit him back and knocked him unconscious. She said, “He never hit me again.”
 
These days she wanders the streets in a blank daze. She’s forgotten to use her phone and has trouble with ATM’s. She gives money to people on the street then is surprised when they see her later and buy her a coffee.
 
She has two university degrees she earned to show her father she wasn’t as stupid as he liked to tell her. She lives in her dead parents’ house with a cat and a dog, the latter of which has adopted her confusion.
 
She had never seen a penis on a man until her father was dying and she had to change his clothing. She’s never had sex in her life and doesn’t know why people do it. She’s says I can tell this to you because she won’t remember saying it.
 
The tan on her face isn’t a tan. It’s built-up grime as she washes only intermittently, maybe once a month. Her odour is of urinary incontinence.
 
She doesn’t regret her life because it’s lost in the depths of her mind and if the pain arises, it quickly sinks like a stone in black water. She has no time to cry, no time to laugh, no chance to smile. She won’t remember any of this because as she said in the beginning, “I won’t remember you.”

Where is Quaden’s biological father?
The Night Talker

“Who and or where is daddy Bayles (the biological father of Quaden Bayles?)

“I tried doing some research but nothing came up? Just that he had/has? a grandfather called Tiga? Bayles.. (Who makes up these names?)

“It seems to me the biggest contribution that the Bayles family has made so far, is towards weird spelling and dubious, pronunciation. I listened to Quayden speaking via his Youtube rant and he clearly has a not inconsiderable speech impediment. Hope he is getting help for this, otherwise I now understand why children might be bullying him (though it still doesn't make it okay).”

Salisbury railway station soup kitchen collapsing

The Victory Church say they’re making a decision over the next month to determine whether they restart their free BBQ outside the Salisbury railway station on Fridays at 6:00pm.
 
Meanwhile, the alternative soup kitchen operating from the back of a ute is failing to attract clients.

Last week, one of the alocholics drank some of the soup then threw the half-full cup onto the footpath.

Quaden Bayles: almost a crowd funding millionaire
The Night Talker

“Putting Quaden Bayles and the issues around the wrongs committed against Indigenous Australian's by white colonialists, into perspective........

“I watched https://www.liveleak.com/view?t=soIhK_1582493524
 in which Q.B. goes on his childish rant. At nine years of age, he no doubt does not have the capacity to largely understand what he is saying. (He is being fed this information by mummy Bayles and his older sister (Guyala) who also has an equally strange name?

“I am not one to dismiss the negative impact that colonialism has had, on the indigenous persons of this country. Unfortunately from a historical perspective any colonial engagement between indigenous and non indigenous persons, has generally ended very badly. (Australia's colonial history is no better)
 
“That said and done, Australia's 270 odd years of colonialist rule, pales into insignificance, when looked at other historical events. A list of atrocities that have happened historically in various parts of the world include the following; The Irish Potato famine (estimated deaths from starvation around 1.75 million persons, number of Russians who died in the 2ww, around 24 million, how long Poland was under occupied rule (around 1200 years) Number of people murdered by the Turks during the 1915-1917 genocide of the Armenian peoples (around 2 million) Number of Soldiers slaughtered on the Western Front in world war one (around 950 thousand) Numbers of Jews killed during the Second W.W. (around six million) and so the list goes on and on and on.......I could be here all day but I won't take up more of your time.
 
“Funny, that nobody gets on T.V. or the media ranting and raving that they are of Irish, or Armenian or Polish or Russian or Jewish heritage, demanding constant reparation and recognition (as we constantly hear from our Indigenous Brethren, including the ones only slightly indigenous and otherwise living non-indigenous lives) So Q.B. yes, you are only nine years of age, but do all of us, a favour and just SHUT THE F*** UP! When you’re a grown man with some life experience under your belt and a little more upstairs, then you can tell us what you think!

“P.S. I am of Polish/Russian and Armenian Heritage, yet if I demanded that I be given reparation for what happened to my ancestors in these countries in the past, I would be laughed out of court. Why is the Indigenous issue any different? Acknowledge the wrongs (absolutely) say sorry if necessary, (nothing wrong with that either) but it ends there.
 
“Unless you are living a full indigenous lifestyle (hunter/gatherer with no welfare or government payments) you need to shut your lip and accept your lifestyle for what it is. Otherwise Q.B and Mummy Bayles and the catalogue model sister, I am sure there is a nice tin shed out in the Y.P. lands with your name on it..........I will launch a go fund me page to raise the bus fare so you can all get over there, but you might want to brush up your survival skills before you leave!”

He smokes to forget
 
“I’m a passivist,” the man with a ferocious reputation tells us as he rolls two smokes on the table of the libertarian homeless joint. He collected the tobacco from butts he found on the street. He adds a sprinkling of green heads he buys for $25 a bag from a friend who does a bit of dealing.
 
He dresses like a pirate and says he was raped as a child and uses drugs to forgot. His maximum moment was injecting 27 lines of crystal meth into a vein in his arm. “$1350,” he says, remembering the amount quite clearly.
 
He says there are “lots of cruel people out there,” and “it’s your bad karma if they do anything to you”.  
 
His skin is swarthy and rough and he stands out immediately as a homeless drug user. He speaks softly as I watch him and wonder who is the best man, he with his mental filter blasted to pieces with drugs or myself, a once vulnerable homeless man, a sheep who became a shark.

From the Night Talker
 
“Yagalla Bayles or whatever she chooses to call herself needs a big fat rality suppository.
 
“In traditional Aborignal culture, Quaden wouldn’t have survived after brith. One of the elder women would have caved in his skull with a rock and left him for the dongoes. The tribe knows it can’t support a …[disabled] child.
 
“She’s happy to accept expensive treatment, but then goes on TV alling us all racist? WTF? She should take Q.B. to the Y.P. lands and see how supportive they are of him.

Salisbury Uniting Church free lunch
 
A core of the mostly volunteer staff resemble prison guards who need to humiliate each new prisoner to put them into their place.
They speak in loud sharp tones while giving little orders here and there as if to show the new client that any intimate discussion with them becomes a public discussion if they choose. It seems as if they are intellectually paralleling the prison practice of emotionally smashing prisoners by undressing them then prodding their bodies in sensitive areas.
 
This was especially evident with the Uniting-in-Care group giving away rotting vegetables and bags of unhealthy food. They’re a Salisbury Uniting Church affiliate of Uniting Care and everything they said signified a reprimand for some unspoken crime.
 
In what seemed a collapse of identity, the Salisbury Uniting Church sold its external office and part of its tennis courts to the Australian Refugee Association. They crammed their office into the main building of the church, then used the money to replace the walls of their dining room with opening floor-to-ceiling glass doors and an outdoor fence around the front of the church to stop children from wandering onto the road.
 
The volunteers wore North Korean-inspired uniform shirts while newly installed Chinese spy cameras recorded what was going on in the Christian building.
 
While the dining room is larger and with tables nicely spaced, the free lunch hasn’t improved. They served mashed potatoes, boiled frozen mixed vegetables and roast meat, but nothing to spice it up. There was a pepper shaker on the serving counter and a clogged salt shaker, but no sauces or vinegar and no salt and pepper on the tables. It was an institutional meal similar to that served to 1950’s children’s home inmates when they were in conflict with the overseers. (Bad children, no seasoning.)
 
However, staff served a generous quantity of expensive lean beef meat on each plate, something important to those suffering diabetes. And there was unlimited quality percolated coffee and sweet buns available. Dessert was cream and caramel cake.
 
There was a movie afterward about a dog during which they served popcorn.
 
But the mood was less than joyful. There wasn’t the laughing or boisterous behaviour you’d see at Fred’s Van Salisbury and Elizabeth.
 
Yet despite this criticism, it is a terrific free service for which at least two diners couldn’t praise it enough. And the church doesn’t don’t require I.D. or registration for the Adelaide Zero Project’s Eternal Shame File.
 
So, there are many conflicting appraisals of this free food service.
 
Salisbury Uniting Church
59-61 Park Terrace on the corner of Brown Terrace, Salisbury. (across from the school) Wednesdays. ph 8258 2675. Free. Clean toilets. Occasional movies after lunch. Meal at 12:00 noon.

Kill Box Lady’s daughter sells bicycle
 
She sold her second bicycle to a woman who put a $50 deposit on it, but then fell off and broke her ankle in four places. She returned the bicycle and wanted her $50 back. The Kill Box Lady’s daughter wouldn’t return it and gave the bicycle to an Aborigine child living nearby. The Kill Box Lady’s daughter said she’d never liked the bicycle because it had been chosen by her ex-husband who urinates at bus stops, and was a child’s bicycle, anyway.

Homeless in the city

From the anonymous contact page

“I am deeply grieved by the amount of homeless people I pass in the city and feel absolutely ill equipped to help in any way. I am unemployed due to disability and I am still in a year long battle with Centrelink to get the support pension, but I always give a person what I can.
 
“I met a man named Corey last week who cried when I gave him $50 and cried even more when I simply asked him what his name was. It broke my heart. He has no family in Australia and the despair in his eyes burnt into my soul. I want to be able to help, and giving what little money I have is not enough.
 
“When I look up volunteer groups I can’t find any that are on the ground. They are all asking for kitchen or admin volunteers etc.. which are good and necessary things, but I would love to be able to stop and connect with a person face to face and be able to offer them some kind of practical help.
 
“Do most homeless people know what options they have for housing/showering etc? Would that be helpful to provide them with? I would really appreciate if you have any insight to share with me or some organisations you support that I could look into. There has to be something! Thank you.”
 
Second Editor: New people in the Adelaide homeless scene don’t know where to go and the homeless joints don’t want them to know what is available. Have you noticed that advertisements and leaflets about homeless service organisations rarely specify what they actually offer? What these government funded services want is to sign up homeless people for a series of rehabilitation, data mining and other events to guarantee next year’s funding.

More younger refugees to replace old Australians in retirement joint?

Anglicare brought in household furnishings for Unit 4 in the Elizabeth retirement unit complex that is due for demolition and redevelopment.
 
Unit 4 had been occupied by a 90-year-old who lost control of his bowels and wasn’t worried about it. He’d also invited teenagers into his unit and who stole his food. The relative of an Anglicare employee replaced him and spent weeks cleaning the unit. Then he was transferred in preparation for the demolition. The “refugees” are short-term tenants until Anglicare finds something better for them.
 
It's strange that Unit 3 isn’t being prepared first. It has a split-system air conditioner and was occupied by a convicted sex offender. He’d learnt cleaning while in prison and kept his unit immaculate except for the dirty stuff with young women that went on during his tenancy. His rehabilitation in the slammer hadn’t been a roaring success.
 
Meanwhile, the remaining white tenants in the complex have heard nothing from Anglicare about their transfer that was announced in February 2019. The 92-year-old tenant is fearful of the “refugees” as Anglicare has not introduced them to us or said anything about them.
 
And the Anglicare employee in charge of facilitating the remaining elderly tenants’ transfers has gone missing. But the Lifestyle Inspectors are actively checking to see if the tenants’ toilets are kept clean, not that this affected the behaviour of the incontinent man in Unit 4. And what information could the Lifestyle Inspectors share about the pending transfers? Nothing.
 
Early 26 February 2020

Editor: An Anglicare employee has since informed Adelaide Homeless Journal that the sex offender's clean unit will be occupied by refugees for various reasons including creating a presence in the complex to prevent attacks by vandals and thieves.

The Quaden Bayles racket
From the Night Talker

“A million dollars raised for child midget to go to Disneyland because of alleged bullying, at the hands of other (slightly) Indigenous Children....

“Unless you have been in a coma or living under a rock, you would have heard on the media about the Quaden Bayles saga. The slightly Indigenous child from Queensland, who also has the inherited condition Achondroplasia.

“Well for those of you who are not up to date with the story about Q.B., his mother uploaded a smart phone video recording of him, onto YouTube, in which he states, he is going to kill himself because he can no longer stand the bullying he is receiving at his local primary school. (Not a good video to sit through, because Q.B. is either very distressed or very mentally disturbed?) (I haven't worked out yet, which one is more obvious)
 
“So what does Mummy Bayles go and do? (other than upload a video in which her nine year old child is filmed, saying he going to commit suicide, onto social media) She goes on national television, stating that poor old Q.B. has been given a double whammy in life because wait for it, He is Indigenous and disabled and this is making the bullying worse.
 
“What mummy Bayles has failed to mention, is that Q.B. goes to a primary school in Queensland that is set up predominately for Children with Indigenous heritage. So who is doing the bullying? That's right folks, other Indigenous children, and I imagine, (as someone that's been on this planet for at least half a century) other Indigenous adults in the community.)
 
“So we now come to the Pink Elephant in the room. (Which mummy Bayles) either doesn't understand or doesn't want to mention, is that the Indigenous community (or her community of urban Queenslanders with a large population of persons like her, with a little bit of Indigenous heritage) and whom are not connected to traditional ways or modes of behaviour, are the worst perpetrators of violence, abuse, bullying and racism. (And that's just towards each other!)
 
“So Mummy Bayles yep I get it that your a caring mummy and that you love your son, but setting up a go-fund me page so that Q.B. so that you and Q.B. go to Disneyland, isn't going to fix, what is going on right in your own backyard. As soon as you get back home, its going to be back to square one.
 
“Oh and just another quick one, you want Q.B. to be accepted, by the other kids in his class. Use some of the money from the Go Fund me proceeds and get his teeth fixed! At ten/eleven years of age, he should have all of his adult teeth by now. So why is he missing several of them? Also as a male child (whether he has a disability or not) Q.B. needs a father figure (one that is healthy and nurturing) not you standing next to another (slightly) Indigenous footballer, who is at least 15 years younger than you. Get it together Mummy Bayles, for the sake of Q.B.

“Also just a bit of advice. You also might want to think twice about uploading photo's of your son dressed in American inspired clothing, that makes him like a midget pimp (Not good) or a miniature version of Fifty Cents!”

Note: Achondroplasia is a genetic disorder that results in dwarfism. In those with the condition, the arms and legs are short, while the torso is typically of normal length.

Who is Neami and why does it exist?
 
It is difficult to determine who owns Neami? They won’t say whether they have shareholders or members who elect the board of management.
 
Neami has over one-thousand employees in South Australia and the eastern states. It was originally incorporated in 1986 as the North Eastern Alliance for the Mentally Ill in the Melbourne suburb of Heidelberg. It was a result of the government contracting out its psychiatric services to the private sector.
 
Neami’s annual budget is over $100 million with $15 million in South Australia. But Neami’s identity is anyone’s guess. It’s controlled by a group of lawyers, accountants and ex-government bureaucrats.
 
Neami operates the Street-to-Home psychiatric police in Adelaide. They search the parklands and suburbia for homeless people that they commit to psychiatric and other treatment plans, then place into welfare housing in Adelaide suburbia. They also do medical research on some of their 9000 clients, all of which his beyond public and even government scrutiny.  
 
Neami’s rise has resulted in the decline of civil liberties and public knowledge of the psychiatric industry. Gone is the accountability and public scrutiny subjected to government departments. Neami is a non-government “not-for-profit” corporation so they are beyond such scrutiny.
 
Neami has minimal assets and limited liabilities so should it lose its $100 million in government funding, it can happily die then arise with a different name.

(above) Strathmont disability residences being knocked down at Oakden. Disabled and hyper-violent residents were put into suburban houses so they could be "normal", but in some cases ten full-time Carers are required to look after each individual. That is one-million dollars a year per person.

(above) Strathmont disabled residents were good at swimming underwater, but some forgot to breathe and stayed submerged for five minutes and had to be rescued. One drowned. Others were hyper-violent and Carers turned their backs on them at their own peril. The buildings are being knocked down for sardine-style housing and the former residents put into normal houses.

​Million dollar a year disabled man
 
Strathmont shouldn’t be confused with the senility home at Oakden where the old people were abused by Care staff. The senility home was closed down because of the abuse, but Strathmont was closed in the “normalisation” process that began in the late 1980’s. “Normalisation” was where institutions were closed down and the residents put in “normal” houses in low-income suburbs. This included Greenacres where the government took a section of the primary school to build houses for the newly deinstitutionalised Strathmont residents.
 
I met a retired Care Worker from Strathmont at a church free soup kitchen. He’d had three strokes, but his mind was clear.
 
He’d worked caring for severely disabled people at Strathmont for 19 years, then another 20 years in a suburban house.
 
The retired Care Worker said many of the residents were hyper-violent. One had hit him in the back and damaged his T4 and T5 vertebrae that required surgery.
 
The worker said the residents used the swimming pool, but had to be watched constantly as they liked to swim underwater. The problem was that they didn’t breathe and stayed there for five-minutes and had to be rescued. One stayed longer and drowned.
 
But he said the deinstitutionalisation process had been a disaster. Lifetime friends had been separated and placed in isolated cramped suburban houses barely fit for purpose.
 
He said that one deinstitutionalised indigenous man costs the government one-million dollars a year to care for in a suburban home. The man required two salaried Care workers around the clock. That worked out as ten people working full-time for one person. Strathmont would have been cheaper and perhaps better.

The Uniting-in-Care affiliate of the Salisbury Uniting Church refers people to Fred's Van at the Salisbury Anglican church (pictured above) despite Fred's Van having moved four years ago from there to the Salisbury Institute. Bum steers are rife in the homeless industry and are difficult to negotiate for disabled homeless people exhausted and despairing.

Lifepoint Church free morning tea
 
Those arriving early can sit in comfortable clean lounge chairs in the foyer. That’s where a church woman found us: slumped backward as if we were half-dead.
 
Perhaps going semi-conscious is a means of reducing anxiety. For some patrons, any free service is a desperate bid to obtain the best and most free stuff, not from necessity, but from a need to win.
 
Lisa was grieving. Her brother died last month, then her son survived an ordeal of hanging onto an overturned kayak in a rip until he was rescued limp with hypothermia. He survived without brain damage.
 
Another patron hasn’t recovered from a childhood in postwar Germany. Another is strange in the head from ten-years being homeless. And it goes on.
 
The Lifepoint church people served barista coffee, cakes and crackers with cheese. Considering that one-third of the guests have diabetes, there was too much sugary foods on the tables.
 
The free bread was one and two-days old, but of a quality where that didn’t matter. It was expensive bread with jalapenos, onions and cheese added to the ingredients.
 
The fruit and vegetables ranged from oversized and marked to market quality. Most was very fresh and nothing like Oz Harvest or Second Bite.
 
The mood of the guests was civilised though one old man complained that the Fred’s Van crowd were taking too much. Saying it once was good, but he got repetitive.
 
The church people were positive and inspiring. They’ve gone from preaching last year to quietly explaining how their lives have gained surety and hope. We left feeling refreshed.

Rudi returns to Kilburn Fred’s Van. He transferred to Fred’s Van at Whitmore Square Fred’s Van on Wednesdays after Horse Trader Steve allegedly slashed his tyres. This was after Rudi told the Horse Trader never to return due to “argy-bargy” in the dining room. Steve said he was homeless, but Rudi didn’t care.
 
Teresa Branch of Fred’s Van then hired a security guard to stop Horse Trader Steve from returning to Fred’s Van Kilburn.
 
The funny thing is that both Horse Trader Steve and Rudi both ended up in the same place, Fred’s Van at Whitmore Square on Wednesdays. Horse Trader Steve has no further antagonism towards Rudi.
 
Rudi will be a Fred’s Van on the first Thursday of every month. He is renowned for his bangers and mash. Presumably, he will also be at Whitmore Square on the other weeks.

Most of the others were long-time celibates and some obviously incapable of sex. Is it normal for old people to talk dirty or have their minds being implanted with memes from subliminal messaging?

One of those shops connected to Baptist Pathfinder at Milne Road, Modbury offering a loaf of day-old bread to anyone who would leave another item. What other items could have a similar value to a loaf of old bread? A box containing six empty beer bottles?

China’s pension funds are near bankruptcy as its population ages. Luckily for the government, the Coronavirus might kill off the old people and, in particular, old men.
 
But what is strange is why they would be so concerned about a virus that has official killed just 2500 people when many times more people have died over the same period from the regular flu. And worldwide, 1000 a day die from malaria.

The Playford Salvation Army Corps at Elizabeth East have responded to the theft of donations left outside their church and welfare centre on Kinkaid Road.
 
Their patrol collects the stuff late at night and before sunrise. You can imagine the anger at Cash Collectors and with their crystal methamphetamine clients.

Whatever happened to that dodgy Dr Nonie Brennan from a homeless group called All Chicago? She spoke at a Don Dunstan homeless conference last year without any beneficial effect on those living outside. How much did it cost to ship her out and then send her packing?
 
Robyn the Junkie could have produced a better show for the price of a taxi. Self-help in the underworld.

South Australia has 17 government-funded organisations and “non-profits” working in the Adelaide inner city homeless scene and 26 in metropolitan Adelaide. Statistically, there must be more bureaucrats than actual homeless people. What do they do to fill in their shifts? You can spend only so much time reading Adelaide Homeless Journal.

Homeless Lil was tanned and happy last week. The abrasions across her face are nearly healed though the slash scar is taking longer. She’s a tough elderly woman, a wary survivor we respect and tread around very carefully.

The Salisbury man with cognitive impairment due to a stroke went to Rivers for a pair of sandals, but came out of the store with three pairs of shoes too small.
 
That’s the problem for stroke victims. They are unable to manage their everyday lives because others discount them as gaga, especially welfare agencies. Even the most astute Australian citizen has trouble negotiating MyAgedCare or the N.D.I.S., the latter of which its contractors have an estimated 10% rate of charging for services not provided.  
 
But what cognitively impaired victims are sensitive to is the threat of being “put away” and finding themselves in the land of limbo.

Housing Trust hires debt collectors on dead tenant

​Bryn Hardiman died in January 2019. He was hit by a car on Midway Road, Elizabeth East. Medics set up a tent on busy Midway Road and worked hours to revive Bryn, but he stayed dead. A large group attended his funeral.
 
He lived in an Anglicare retirement rental unit. He was destitute when he moved in so the Housing Trust paid his bond.
 
His son cleaned up his retirement unit, but left a few bit and pieces of light garbage. Anglicare hired Gleam Services to remove it for which that left a bill of $207.05. Anglicare recovered this amount from Bryn’s Housing Trust bond.
 
The Housing Trust sent Bryn two demands for payment in December 2019, but Bryn failed to pay. His estate upon his death had been enough to cover his funeral and cremation, nothing more.
 
Bryn had been a full-time fitter and turner until going on the disability pension then the Aged Pension. He had sponsored a child in the middle east via World Vision and donated to other causes.
 
After failing to recover the $207.05 from Bryn, the South Australian Housing Trust hired a Melbourne debt collector named Australian Receivabls Ltd. to obtain payment. In a letter to Bryn dated 11 February 2020, they said, “…we have been requested to commence immediate action to recover this outstanding balance…please note that our client has authorised us to take ALL APPROPRIATE ACTION to recover this amount in FULL.”

Argentina’s dirty war and the Adelaide Zero Project

The Argentine military dictatorship ran a dirty war against rebels in the 1980’s where they kidnapped, interrogated and tortured thousands to death.
 
The highest ranking and highest paid officers did the psychological interrogations while the lowest status soldiers and freelance thugs did the physical torture and degradation.
 
Similarly, the Adelaide Zero Project is using ex-homeless people to run the Community Solutions triage interviews where they ask homeless people seeking housing the most insulting and inappropriate questions that are entered into the Eternal Shame File.
 
The lowest status people in the homeless industry do the dirty work.
 
22 February 2020

(above) RenewalSA evicted tenants from 35 government owned disability-friendly units and townhouses on Maltarra Road, Munno Para, then hired Royal Park Salvage to smash the buildings and haul them off to landfill. 16-months later, nothing has been done to the land. Meanwhile, people are homeless and the neither the Adelaide Zero Project or ShelterSA will breathe a word of criticism.

 “The Doctor” and her colleagues

Rumours abound about the high salaries collected by “charity” and “non-profit” executives who promote economic and housing justice for the underclass.
 
But do these welfare housing charity executives practice what they preach? Do they have investment portfolios, or even houses that they rent to whoever can pay the highest amount?
 
In general, what sort of wealth might homeless charity and agency executives have and is that used by others to blackmail them into adopting certain positions?
 
For example, why would a homeless service promote the interests of drug dealing clients against clients who want the crystal methamphetamine dealers exposed and expelled? Why would the atmosphere of intimidation and beatings be described by management as personal issues between clients? And who constrains the police on the street from taking the legal action they want to take?
 
Why would an advocate for cheaper housing for the poor avoid talking about Anglicare and Housing Trust houses left empty for months, even years. And why would this advocate do a song and dance about the demise of the tokenistic Affordable Housing Scheme when it means little to anyone, especially those living outside. Is this advocate self-censoring due to a vulnerability to blackmail?
 
It is a positive attribute of people to increase their material security, but we can imagine the uneasiness of benevolent social workers and administrators as their salaries and wealth skyrocket. It must be hell for them knowing that if they actually promote the interests of their clients, then the powers-that-be will leak information of their wealth to a predatory media.

Adelaide CBD​ rough
​sleeper count down 7

The Adelaide Zero Project reports that for the month up to 18 February 2020 the “Number of people who are known to be sleeping rough in the inner city,” is 151, down from 158 on the previous month.
 
The area includes the Adelaide CBD (city area) and surrounding parklands. It isn’t clear if “sleeping rough” also refers to those sleeping in cars, vans and camper vans.
 
The number of 151 is eight more than for the first major Adelaide Zero Project homeless count in May 2018.
 
This is despite the Hutt Street Centre and other homeless welfare agencies putting increased numbers of city rough sleepers into Housing Trust, Unity and other housing in suburban Adelaide. It is also despite a major push to send indigenous people back to their homelands in South Australia and the Northern Territory.
 
It is going to be difficult for the Adelaide Zero Project to achieve its zero homeless count by May this year. One trick they might choose is to do a limited Connections Week homeless count to minimise the numbers.
 
What would be interesting is an honest analysis of the Adelaide Zero Project’s methods, successes and failures rather than their public relations hype.
 
Their homeless count has the same taint of minimalisation as do the death figures of Coronavirus victims in Wuhan city in China, so many bodies left uncounted in both scenarios.

Exploding charity drinks
 
The remaining members of the Crony Gang were wise to satiate their addictions to soft drinks during the huge giveaway in early 2019.
 
One person who received these same fizzy drinks deciding to store them for a future day. This resulted in a series of explosions from the plastic bottles and cans.
 
The plastic bottles were the sugar-free variety while the cans were Cascade lemon, lime and bitters; Frantelle sugar-free raspberry and blackcurrent mineral water; Flying Power Energy Drink, 99% sugar-free.
 
So the moral of the story is: consume the drinks or put them on the porch, or away from your swag. Or don’t accept them in the first instance.

(above) A well-chosen shaded area for a mattress in Adelaide. Should Australian indigenous people be classified as homeless? Some prefer the outdoors to being inside a sterile cell we call a bedroom. Maybe the Neami Street-to-Home psychiatric police shouldn't hunt them down with the intent of putting them on medication. (Adelaide Homeless Journal 2020).

Chop-chop, Manchesters and Vietnamese smokes

Along with chop-chop from northern Queensland, Adelaide nicotine addicts can smoke illegal Manchesters from England. They come loose so you can buy a handful of these Taylor-made smokes, or fill a bag or box.
 
And we shouldn’t forget Vietnamese smokes that arrive hidden in pallets of food products. But don’t walk into an Asian shop asking for them. They require a nearly impossible-to-get introduction if you’re a white fella or woman. If you’re Cambodian or Vietnamese, no problem.
 
Over-taxing a product has created a new criminal enterprise.

Renovated Housing Trust unit trashed
 
The Housing Trust (South Australian Housing Authority) told a man on a pension to get out of his house. They were knocking it down and squeezing four smaller dwellings on the block.
 
They offered him another unit in Croydon. They’d spent a small fortune of taxpayer money renovating it, but during the process of signing the documents, vandals and scrap collectors broke in and stole the air-conditioner and ripped out the copper pipes. Vandals followed and further damaged the unit.
 
The tenant, who supplements his pension by towing away dead cars, now has to wait while the unit is renovated a second time.

Encounter Church free food at Gawler
 
The market responds to supply so instead of 75 clients being there, the number had dropped to about 55. That’s because supplies are less than previously. And few of the 55 took advantage of the free coffee and comfortable chairs, but instead queued up to be first at the starting bell.
 
A church woman looked like the senile woman in the old “Mother and Son” TV show. She wasn’t senile and I regret making the suggestion. Another woman, a client, said she worked in the school cafeteria at Scots College to pay for her children’s tuition. She also knitted blankets for homeless people.
 
The Encounter church’s Coles bread and expensive pastries were two-days old, which is good for a weekly service. A bag of vegetables I got contained a rotten tomato and a lettuce that was rotten right through, but a bag of potatoes was perfect. The loose beetroots were also perfect. I could have gotten 20kgs of mixed vegetables without censure and an extended family could have gotten 100kgs.
 
The routine is that the first customers arrive at 2:00pm. The covers are removed from the bagged fruit and vegetables and bread at 3:00pm. By 3:14pm nearly every client has gone and church volunteers are packing up.
 
It’s a pleasant hour once you learn the ropes: arrive early, get a good seat, make a coffee for yourself and converse with interesting people. And the Encounter Church doesn’t document your attendance by putting your name on the Eternal Shame File.  
 
Salt Church at Gawler (Encounter Church)
25 Northside Court, Evanston Gardens. Ph (08) 8522 0000.
Thursdays 3pm. No registration and identification required. Good toilets. Bread, surplus fresh and healthy fruit and vegetables from local growers and whatever they can get their hands on. You can arrive at 2:00pm and make yourself a coffee. Filtered water.

(above) Salisbury Salvation Army contractors are keeping the footpath relatively uncluttered of donated goods. But the donated bags left on either side of the building are continuously ransacked during the day for valuables that are taken to Cash Converters to raise money for drugs. The contractor must get their stock from elsewhere and see the donated stuff at the back as irrelevant.

Salvation Army rental house
​has sealed windows

A Hopes Café worker and friend of The Ghost Who Walks lives in a Salvo house at Whitmore Square. The rent is low and it is very near the Army’s Detox centre. It is on the street so indigenous people tap on his windows during the night. Not that they can get in, the windows are sealed shut.
 
With our Chinese-supplied electricity so expensive, he rarely uses his air-conditioner so it can get quite warm in summer, not to think of fire and a quick escape.

Dislocated ribs at Gawler Fred’s Van

A cheerful woman aged about 38 stood underneath a large tree and pulled up her shirt to show the bulge of a dislocated rib on her back. She turned around and showed us the scar on her right side where a rib had broken previously through. She said she was getting an injection from the doctor before she went to bed because her ruined kidneys couldn’t deal with painkiller tablets.
 
Over at the picnic table, a regular patron on welfare said he pays for private health insurance for his family. The cost is why he visits Fred’s Van.
 
An older man collecting cans said he won’t be caught alone with women he doesn’t know in case they “set him up”.  An easy-going patron said he had part of his stomach and upper intestine cut out prior to Christmas when it began bleeding and he almost died. Gordon’s mother who works for the Salvation Army on Saturday evenings at Adelaide Congress Hall was there. Another woman said she’s looking for a gentlemanly partner. A youngish old man collects small pieces of aluminium foil and sells it to scrap dealers. He also buys collectables at low prices and resells them at markets and on eBay. Hardly anyone who goes to Fred’s Van Gawler is a layabout.
 
The man who dresses like Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Caribbean was there with the man with the bad heart. He’s quite normal apart from the pirate business.
 
The free food included pasta and sauce, hot and fresh meat pies, not so great sandwiches (not enough filling), chocolate, oranges, coffee, cordial and water. The B-group staff were pleasant as usual as if they like serving us. We are interesting and nearly every diner is worthy. Going to Fred’s Van Gawler is a refreshing experience. It’s nicer being outside than the inside at the Fred’s Vans around Adelaide.
 
An elderly patron waiting for cataract surgery collected the used plastic knives and forks that he will clean at home.

Hutt Street Centre junkies
mere pawns
from The Night Talker

“Most of these people flit in and out of our sight, because the smartest dealers/cooks know that that the best cover is to remain as anonymous as possible. The ones running highly profitable outfits don't do it in Elizabeth (where the cops cruise the street 24/7) but do it in the leafy eastern suburbs or on isolated properties 250km south west of the SA/Broken Hill Border (or somewhere similar that sits in the middle of nowhere) so they remain undetected.
 
“I am not condoning their practices by any shape, size or means, but I am telling you that the (smart) ones don't leave properties looking like ground zero. They maintain them in immaculate condition and are never late with the rent (they even pay excess rent to avoid detection) Only the bogans and amateurs break into places and turn rental properties into tips.”

Big change at Salisbury free BBQ
 
Victory Church has stopped its free BBQ on Friday evenings outside the Salisbury railway station.
 
Chris the Judo champion, Steve the ambulance medic and another man continued the service last Friday by bringing donated fresh bread, sandwiches and a pot of lentil soup that they served from the back of their cars.
 
Near the end, a thin young man arrived with his two legs bandaged from a sports injury. He said one hurt particularly so the three church men put their hands on him and prayed for healing. The young man said the pain had gone and he jumped up and down on the ground. He later showed us a photo of his right foot turned sideways from his ankle.
 
Someone said the man had been paid to do this and that the three Christians ran the free food service only to get people to join their church. The medic fellow said that wasn’t true and they’d only got 5 or 6 new Victory church members from the BBQ in the last six years. And, anyway, they’d left the church after it had stopped the free BBQ.
 
Not many people were there as most clients thought the service had ceased completely. However, Raoul, Marten, the Horse Trainer Lady, that strange American, the Wheel Man and a few others did turn up. Thirty or forty indigenous and mixed-race Aborigines sat near the Stockade Hotel and some came over for bread and soup. Later, a man amongst them yelled at the church people to come over and “clean up the mess” of the paper cups they’d tossed on the ground.
 
Steve the medic said that being a Christian included going through hard times with the same faith as in good times.
 
Salisbury railway station free soup (Formerly Victory Church BBQ)
Currently just soup, bread and coffee as the church has withdrawn from the service and the remaining volunteers are re-establishing the service.
Fridays 5:45 to at least 7:00pm. Free. A wide range of clients, not just alcoholics.
On the footpath between the Stockade Hotel carpark and the Salisbury railway station.
Near the corner of John and Gawler Streets, Salisbury.
Christians bless and pray for those who want it. Constant array of interesting people passing through. A refreshing event. Mosquitoes. Cold in winter.
Filthy gov’t toilets at railway station and slightly less filthy ones in the Stockade Hotel.

Elderly gentleman lifts
​old girl’s dress

We were sitting on the seats and lounges in the foyer waiting for the free food room to open. Most of us admitted we were there for company rather than the food.
 
One elderly man seemed there for more than that. He fiddled with the short dress of an old girl, the one who donated $20K to the bushfire appeal.
 
She jumped up as if some pervert was touching her. Then she pulled her dress up to her waist, saying she was wearing shorts. The fiddler said he hadn’t realised this and was pulling her dress down because it had been riding upward.
 
The honky tonk man opposite us smiled at this as the old girl said his kind were protective of elderly women. The fiddler talked of “pillow biters” while the old girl’s boyfriend laughed.
 
“G” arrived exhausted. He’s moving from the Housing Trust to a shack on his own piece of land in the wheat belt. He’s collected lots of stuff so the move is taking six-months.
 
The takeaway free food room had little of worth. The hall itself was horribly overcrowded and one of the few homeless people there walked out. They should open the second dining room. Its tables and chairs are already set up.
 
The meal was fish fingers, a decent salad, excellent Maranello pizza, Quiche and canned fruit with custard for dessert. But it was too hurried and when I returned with the dessert, my coffee had gone and the coffee man had disappeared. And the problem with a crowded room is that each person gets stuck in a position.
 
Wayne, who claims not to be the full-quid, says he prefers the outdoor venues like the Salisbury railway station soup ute where you can move about and talk to many people.
 
Fred’s Van Salisbury
Salisbury Institute building, 17 Wiltshire St, Salisbury (next to PBA-FM radio station). 6:00pm Sunday. Soup, good main meal, Maranello pizzas, excellent pasta, dessert, coffee and lousy takeaways. Free. No I.D. required. Overcrowded and rushed.
Free Orange Sky laundry 4:30-6:30p, but the doors are locked until 5:30 so you have to sneak in the back via the BankSA carpark on John Street. Fascinating people. Beautiful stone building. Huge surveillance cameras. Horrible greasy toilets and walls. Decent staff.

The wheel man and Ian George Court
from the Night Talker

“As far as I am aware, fire-bans are still in place for all Metropolitan and Country parts of SA. This doesn't officially end, until the beginning of June (although some councils have specific dates, you have to check with each and every council for exact dates.)
 
“Another comment, the burning of rubbish in domestic backyards and businesses is banned in all metropolitan areas, (regardless of whether its fire ban season or not) Incinerators were outlawed years ago) The only businesses allowed to burn anything must have a specific permit and purpose (e.g. crematoriums, blast furnaces, foundries, brick kilns, etc etc) and on certain days (e.g. during extreme fire conditions, they must not operate and or can only operate, if additional precautions are put into place.
 
“So why is ‘wheel man,’ using an incinerator in the first place? He isn't allowed to and it is still fire ban season, all across the state. Another comment is that tyres are highly flammable, burn for days and days, releasing huge quantities of toxic smoke. They also trap rain water in them, (which then becomes a perfect breeding ground for mosquito's, and finally, rats, mice and snakes love to nest in them.
 
“I am sorry that Wheel man is declining, but the fact remains that he is going gaga and not all there. His mess of a backyard needs to be cleaned up and he needs to be shipped off to somewhere, he cannot again, create his own little environmental nightmare. Think of the people who have to live next door to him. What a sight and what risks he presents to the rest of the community.
 
“If he wants to continue to be surrounded by (worthless) detritus, then buy him a couple of "car wheel" magazines and a scrapbook and a bottle of clag glue, and tell him to start scrap booking. Its harmless and will while away the hours. He cannot be left alone anymore. I am sure there is a spare bed waiting for him at Ian George Court or somewhere similar.”

Disempowering
Anglicare
​pensioner unit inspections

Anglicare sent their Lifestyle Inspectors to a group of pensioner units at Elizabeth. They inspected the toilets and shower cubicles and asked if there were any maintenance issues. All the remaining tenants thought this strange as the units are slowly being emptied with the occupants transferred to other properties.
 
The inspections were involuntary and Anglicare staff enter the units with their own keys if tenants are not home. There is no option to reschedule a visit.
 
But when it came to answering the questions all the tenants wanted answering, the two Lifestyle Inspectors were mute. The questions were: What is delaying the transfer process and why won’t Anglicare keep the tenants informed?
 
And to pay for these humiliating Lifestyle Inspections, Anglicare raised the rent 6.6% last year when the inflation CPI was 1.9%.

On the Street
 
The Vitamin Derelict said that someone is referred to as “cooked” when they’ve suffered brain damage from drugs and think of nothing else. A “cooked” person sees others only as either a means of getting more drugs or as an impediment to getting drugs. Nothing else. The “cooked” person has lost most morals and will do nearly anything to get more drugs.

An arrest warrant continues for Mark Nicholas Arstall, 43, from Ngongotaha in New Zealand. Witnesses from other assaults want to testify in the case that happened at the Hutt Street Centre.
 
But if Arstall can stay away from South Australia long enough, the case will be dropped as the witnesses and victims are visibly declining from old age. That’s the beauty of it: he prefers his victims to be old, frail and isolated.
 
He made a mistake at St Bede’s church at Semaphore where after punching an old man twice in the head had to flee for his own safety.

Puddle Jumpers moved their food van from outside the Salvo Detox centre at Whitmore Square to Hurtle Square on Monday evenings due to the “behaviour” at Whitmore Square.

The Aspire Program is proving a winner in reducing expenditure on homeless people. Instead of spending time in hospital and the courts and prison, the ex-homeless drug dealers have been put into suburban Housing Trust units where they can continue their lifestyle in a safer environment.

Historian Kelly Henderson is reportedly staying in a motel funded by the Department of Human Services after living in her car. She lived in a Housing Trust house in the city that was transferred to Housing Choices that also operates the Common Ground semi-prison apartment blocks.
 
Kelly refused to accept the transfer of ownership and was evicted and her historical records sent to storage. She had previously tried to pay her Housing Trust rent through the courts, but was unceremoniously lifted out of the building. She kicked out and hit a court guard and was then charged with assault.
 
It isn’t known whether her historical records have subsequently been sent to the rubbish dump by Housing Choices or not.

Clients at the Hutt Street Centre report that Robyn is alive, but appears otherwise. Her new role is that of elder matriarch and protector of righeousness. That contrasts with her history of poisoning others with drugs then claiming they were her best friends.
 
And no one should underestimate this frail elderly woman’ power in the Hutt Street Centre’s crystal methamphetamine scene. Just mention her name to any hardened homeless junkie and watch the fear cross their face. She can raise a thug with ease who will do her violent bidding then be disposed of like a bag of dirt.

A can collector said that former Premier Jay Weatherill has a new job with “Twiggy” at Fortescue Mining.
 
Weatherill said when he was the South Australian Housing Minister that no one was wasting their time on Category 3 of the Housing Trust waiting list.
 
I went into the Port Adelaide Housing Trust office last week. There were eight cameras, one employee and no customers present. I took a number and stood in front of the counter. The employee called my number and I gave her the numbered card. She checked the computer and said I was on Category 2 and agreed with me that I would never get an offer.
 
I’d gone on the waiting list in 1998 and got to Category 1 due to being homeless for years, but after knocking back three properties over the following 14 years was demoted to Category 2. I live in a non-profit’s unit now, but if I ever leave it, I’m stuffed.

“There were eight applications shortlisted, and he was the successful applicant. Mr Cox of course would be known through his role at Hutt Street, where I understand he has worked for 16 years, and he has worked in the homelessness sector for some 25 years…”

Wheel man facing existential crisis
 
The wheel man at Elizabeth Grove said wheels and tyres are his life. He was known as the wheel man, but now he cannot drive. He said the doctors at the Lionel McEwin Hospital gave him a stroke. He has cognitive impairment. His health deteriorates by the month. A bus driver closed the door on him as he pointed to the wheel man’s wet trousers.
 
His back yard is covered in tyres, headlight covers and back window louvres for Commodores and Fords.
 
These are the trouble. Neighbours worry the tyres will catch fire. They called the fire brigade when the wheel man burnt rubbish in his incinerator last week. They thought the 500 tyres were burning. Or maybe it was a pretext.
 
The Salisbury Council and fire department sent Commissars to his house and gave him six-weeks to get rid of the tyres and other plastic.
 
“I’m the wheel man,” he says plaintively, a sense of loss passing over his face. He talks of a friend who will turn the tyres into tyre crumb for two-dollars each. That’s $1000 he’ll have to pay. He’s selling sixty louvres this week for ten-dollars each.
 
He doesn’t smoke tobacco, use drugs or drink alcohol yet the bureaucrats won’t let him live his last year on earth with his tyres and rims. They want the back yard of the house he owns scoured of anything flammable. There is little mercy for those who don’t conform.
 
Meanwhile, the Elizabeth Grove crystal methamphetamine, M.D.M.A. and heroin dealers operate with impunity. Junkies move about the suburb during the day, casing houses for nightly break-ins. No problems.

Was Ian Cox pushed or did he jump?
 
Ian Cox dedicated much of his career helping homeless and underclass people at the Hutt Street Centre.
 
He resigned late last year to take up a government position. His move was described as a “massive coup” for the government. It wasn’t clear whether the “massive coup” was getting Ian to become the “Head of Homelessness Sector Integration” or getting rid of him from the Hutt Street Centre.  
 
Homeless Sector Integration means that every move a homeless person makes will be recorded on the Eternal Shame File. Exceptions will be churches and benevolent groups that don’t record client details for the File.
 
Ian, along with the board of management, had built up the Hutt Street Centre to an organisation with over 75 employees.
 
The Hutt Street Centre adopted and developed the Aspire Program that aimed to save the government money by putting homeless people into housing where they would need less ambulance and hospital care, and appear in court and go to gaol less often.
 
One could say another “massive coup” was getting “AJ” Stewart to work as a peer advisor in the program. “AJ” was an Iraq war veteran machine gunner who has lived outside in Adelaide for years and knows just about every person on the street.
 
But why did Ian Cox leave the Hutt Street Centre? There had been bad publicity caused by drug dealers and their psychotic customers spreading fear in Hutt Street. Both small traders and land developers united in an attempt to get the Hutt Street Centre moved elsewhere.
 
Ian Cox and the Board placed employees and volunteers wearing orange shirts on Hutt Street, urging homeless people and other clients to either come into the building or go elsewhere. The police and the police Minister along with other Members of Parliament backed Ian.
 
Ian’s performance in the media was strident, but he didn’t explain clearly what kind of people went to the Centre. Or how they had been profoundly injured in their upbringing. He was also too sympathetic to the small-time junkies that plagued the Centre. Did he not see that some had become wolves, such as Robyn the Junkie with her extensive criminal contacts and access to thugs?
 
Anyway, he’s gone and so is Phil Donato, the Chairman of the Board. Ian has been replaced with a psychiatric assessor while Phil’s replacement is an intellectual property lawyer.
 
And these newcomers signal the evolution of the Hutt Street Centre from Catholic Nuns handing soup and bread to alcoholics and homeless people at the back door to a diabolical institution gaining near total control over the privacy and lives of its clients. It has effectively gone from being a homeless support centre to an annex of the Glenside psychiatric hospital. And every homeless person is seen as a psychiatric patient until they prove otherwise.

​Stealing The Ghost’s heritage house
 
An Unley Council employee threatened to put a lien on the Ghost Who Walk’s heritage house in Goodwood and put him in a nursing home.
 
The employee told the Ghost he wasn’t allowed to have more than one shed on his property and just four cars despite a Court decision allowing him five. The employee said the shed could contain just one bicycle and one lawnmower.
 
Of course, this is beyond the powers of the Unley Council employee, but it plays on the fears of The Ghost Who Walks who is in his mid-seventies and can barely walk.
 
It was built by The Ghost’s grandfather in the 1920’s and The Ghost moved there when he was a week old after being born at the Queen Victoria hospital near the old race course. He’s lived there and on the next street since the 1940’s.
 
But of course, the Council employee cannot put a lien on the house. The Ghost has paid nearly $15,000 in fines and court costs arising from disputes over old cars on the property. Nor can the Unley Council put the Ghost in a nursing home. This is simply bullying an old sick man with a literary disability.
 
Someone wants The Ghost’s house and is using the Unley Council to achieve this. The heritage house is on a big block in a prime area of Goodwood, away from the traffic.

A Charles Dickens lunch at Stasiland
 
Raoul said he was told to leave when he asked for a second serving at the Stasiland free lunch in Salisbury. It was a scene akin to Oliver Twist in a Dickens novel.
 
Marta, main cook at Stasiland, would be more comfortable with a whip.
 
But another client said she’s changed and become nicer. Both Lisa and Mick, formerly of Mick and Denise, praise Stasiland as a good place.
 
Raoul has a speech impediment and his simplest words are delivered in a booming voice consisting mostly of vowels. He is not known for aggression or rudeness in any form.
 
Salisbury Uniting Church (Stasiland)
59-61 Park Terrace on the corner of Brown Terrace, Salisbury. (across from the school) Wednesdays. ph 8258 2675. Free. Clean toilets. Occasional movies after lunch. Meal at 12:00 noon. No sauce or vinegar. Salt and pepper strictly rationed.  Free vegetables from the racks and monthly food hampers for Salisbury area people only, which requires I.D., but anyone can go to the free lunch without I.D..  Recommended by the decent man who’s girlfriend was murdered by the Truro killers.

From the inside: why Gawler Salvos is non-operational
The Night Talker

“My [insider] friend told me that Kinkaid Road Salvos are now the official charity that people get sent to when they can’t get into hospital, an ambulance and/or to see a doctor.
 
“Anyone without a Medicare card or Concession Card or who can’t afford their prescriptions is told to go there.
 
“Kinkaid Road Salvos have been put on some list by SA Health and Ambulance SA as an alternative community centre for people who are not likely to be accept by GP clinics or hospitals. (That’s for people in the north of Adelaide). As far as I am aware.
 
“Salvos allegedly getting funding from State government for doing this. My [insider] friend told me that new Gawler Salvos [building] built with big fat grant that Gawler Council got from local government to supposedly support the growing number of poor people in the Gawler/Evanston/Munno Para and Smithfield area.
 
“They were meant to run breakfast and lunches and laundry and shower facilities plus adult reading and writing classes, but so far not much has eventuated.
 
“Tony Piccolo, [Gawler MP], and Gawler Traders behind the idea allegedly. Traders [are] not liking the growing soup kitchen brigade at Fred’s Van [Pioneer Park] and the supermarket bins that are raided nightly or the homeless sleeping in their cars at the Lyndoch Road Visitor Centre carpark.”

The old girl comes good
​and shames us all

An older woman with life-threatening health problems said she dipped into her superannuation and donated $20k to the bushfire appeal.
 
Inside the hall, Lisa got Jason on the mobility scooter a meal from the serving counter. Trevor said he’d survived Christmas and that his father had told him to keep living outside as his body was used to it. He doesn’t get the flu shot and hasn’t had the illness for two-years. Marten the Magnificent is collecting signatures asking for Julian Assange to be freed. Stormy Summer’s ex-boyfriend has been jumping curbs with his car as his eyesight deteriorates.
 
Garfield is working at Fred’s Van Salisbury as well as the Magdalene church hall on Moore Street in the city. He said there were 180 at Moore Street the previous Saturday because City Salvos was still closed until the 15th of February. He sells Big Issue. Garfield was with his grandmother.
 
Cambodian Jenny was there with her daughter. Jenny amazes everyone with her good-natured lack of the skill with eating utensils.  
 
Raoul said Victory Chruch BBQ starts this Friday. Wayne said he phoned the Church who told him they’d cancelled it and it had nothing to do with the Salisbury Council.
 
However, the latest news was that the BBQ has restarted, but without the BBQ. They serve sandwiches, coffee and buns, but no grilled sausages. And they only stay there for an hour.
 
The two back rows of tables were placed too close together so we spread them apart. The food was terrific, but there wasn’t enough of it.
 
Orange Sky Laundry was there.
 
Fred’s Van Salisbury
Salisbury Institute building, 17 Wiltshire St, Salisbury (next to PBA-FM radio station). 6:00pm Sunday. Soup, good main meal, Maranello pizzas, excellent pasta, dessert, coffee and lousy takeaways. Free. No I.D. required. Overcrowded and rushed.
Free Orange Sky laundry 4:30-6:30pm if they turn up. Fascinating people. Beautiful stone building. Huge surveillance cameras. Slightly filthy toilets. Decent staff.

(above) Robbers broke into the Savers Red Nose donation bins at the Tea Tree shopping centre at Modbury. Such an act was once considered despicable, but Red Nose Savers is a private company owned by an American hedge fund.

(above) The Red Nose Savers so-called charity store sells donated items at outrageously high prices. So are the American hedge fund owners any different from those who break the locks of the donations bins and steal the contents? It is best to donate to charity stores operated without paid employees and from church premises.

Is it possible for Adelaide Zero Project to reduce homelessness to below zero?

​Does this sound improbable? But it is possible using the definitions of zero homelessness used by the Adelaide Zero Project.
 
One definition is that with 150 people living outside in the Adelaide CBD and parklands and 75 appropriate levels of vacant accommodation for them, then functional zero homelessness is 75. If there are 160 appropriate rooms and beds for them, then functional zero homelessness is, theoretically, 10 less than zero. The fact that those 150 people may still be sleeping on the footpaths in the city is irrelevant in the statistical calculation.
 
A second definition is that functional zero homelessness has been achieved when the number of homeless people put into accommodation in a one-month period is the same as that number living outside. The period of time may be extended to three-months to make the target easier to achieve. If more people are housed during either of these periods than are homeless, then minus zero functional homelessness has also been achieved.
 
Once again, it doesn’t matter if the original 150 rough sleepers are still living outside. It’s what goes into data base that becomes reality.
 
To achieve this second definition, the homeless industry registers those living in backpackers’ joints or caravan parks as homeless, then places them into housing. This type of people are much easier to house.
 
But the real magician’s trick is fooling the public into thinking that the Adelaide Zero Project is about finding shelter for homeless people. It isn’t. It’s the upselling that counts, like buying cheap petrol and the cashier persuades you to buy overpriced confectionary. He or she has “upselled” you.
 
What the Adelaide Zero Project is upselling is “support” and what this actually entails is a mystery. And who profits from it? And what is the outcome for the primary product, the homeless person?
 
Who knows these secrets? Will you who know come forward, anonymously?

​

(above) Note that Anglicare is doing a "routine inspection", but says for maintenance problems, tenants should call another department. The "routine inspection" is a lifestyle inspection where tenants are given a score as to how clean they keep their showers and toilets, etc. It is humiliating and dis-empowering, and a waste of employee time.

​Gawler free showers back in action
 
The Gawler free showers at the Visitors’ Centre are now open to public use. However, the shower in one room has been removed and it is now an excellent toilet room. The other two shower rooms are kept locked and require a key from the Visitors’ Centre to open.
 
Shower use is still free, but staff require I.D., even photo I.D. if you’re a total stranger or a local prostitute, drug addict or pervert.
 
It’s a shame that things have come to this, but at least they are still available. Another free shower is available at U Care Tod Street.

​Puddle Jumpers ends “animal routine”
 
This children's charity charges a one-dollar entry fee for their free fruit, vegetables, bread, hot meal and occasional hairdressers, doctors and masseurs. So, it isn’t exactly free, but a dollar is nothing.
 
They ask that drivers park on the grounds of the old Glandore Boys’ home that is now a huge community centre. A bus picks up clients  from the carpark or tram station every five-minutes or you can walk to Puddle Jumpers on Pleasant Avenue. Staff walk around with CB radios ensuring no one parks on the street and if anyone does, they call out the licence plate number of the car “illegally” parked on the street. It isn’t illegal, but neighbours complain to the local council about anyone parking on their streets especially the extra skimpy streets in the new housing area.
 
Puddle Jumpers have ended the “animal routine” where clients charge the tables and grab the free food. Instead, they give numbers to everyone arriving. Ten people at a time are given entry to the free area. The first arriving get first entry to the free food area. And there is lots of it.
 
They serve a free meal with limited chairs and tables supplemented with overturned milk crates covered in cushions.
 
Everyone is welcome and they don’t require I.D. or registration. Most clients have been described “refugee-types” from Afghanistan, Syria, Nepal with a few Oriental Asians plus underclass white folk, but no Africans.
 
Puddle Jumpers is mainly a children’s charity that offers camping and other excursions plus networking and emotional support for parents and children facing severe challenges in life. It is another small miracle in Adelaide.
 
 
Puddle Jumpers
52 Pleasant Avenue, Glandore, ph (08) 7071 5270. No I.D. or registration required.
Every Monday at 5:00pm - 7:00pm except public holidays. One-dollar entry for free fruit, vegetables, bread, meal and hairdressering. No parking in street as neighbours complain. Park on the grounds of the old Boys’ Home. Bus pick-up every five minutes. Orderly food service replaces the free-for-all. Occasional doctors and masseurs.

Also, Hurtle Square in the Adelaide CBD:  Mondays at 7:00pm for hot food and free fruit and vegetables. They moved from Whitmore Square for fear of violence. Free entry. No one-dollar entry charge.
Free fruit, bread and vegetables at Puddle Jumper Op Shops at 300 Port Road, Hindmarsh, 975 South Rd, Melrose Park and 1/26 Henley Beach Road, Torrensville during the week.

(above) Blankets left in Whitmore Square, Adelaide across the street from the expensive St Vincent de Paul Night Shelter. In this new era of "Social Inclusion", getting a bed requires the right connections.

On the Street
 
Thieves dug up twelve expensive plants last week at the half-empty Anglicare retirement complex in Elizabeth. They came in at night. The plants were purchased and planted by a now blind 89-year-old tenant.
 
For the past two years, vacated units have been left empty by Anglicare in preparation for a major renovation or demolition ― Anglicare won’t say which. Anglicare was in the process of transferring the remaining tenants to other properties, but the process stalled and the employee delegated to facilitate the transfers has gone incommunicado.
 
*
 
A single grey SUV was parked at the back of the recently built Gawler Salvation Army complex at 4:12pm on Thursday 6 February. The front carpark was empty.
 
It is rare to see any activity inside or outside the expensive new complex on Edith Street above Clonea Park and the North Para River. This is in stark contrast to the ramshackle Elizabeth East Salvation Army building that is usually bursting at the seams.
 
*
 
A man living outside took a sip of beer from a bottle. He was outside the “Community Hub” surveillance centre. He was suddenly confronted by a Salisbury Council employee who said it was a dry zone and drinking wasn’t allowed. The employee said it was “dry” from Hungry Jacks to the abandoned car factory at Elizabeth South.
 
The homeless man wondered how he’d been caught so quickly.  He also wondered how others drank outside the Salisbury railway station day and night without impediment.
 
Opinion on the street is that the police are afraid of the indigenous crowd for fear of being accused of racism.
 
*
 
A soup kitchen client said the LGBTI crowd advocate inclusivity, but practice exclusion. He said there should be an “S” added to make it LGBTI-S.
 
*
 
David Penberthy of 5AA radio says the Crows HQ put in the parklands at North Adelaide could be the Adelaide City Council’s financial saviour. How often have we heard that false story whenever corporate interests want a slice of the parklands? And each new building on the grass takes away an area where homeless people could sleep. And introduces surveillance cameras and hostile landscaping.
 
Penberthy is part Woke and part wolf.
 
*
 
An older woman at a soup kitchen said her Jewish German mother had recently died. She said her mother was 16 in Germany when the war started. She said her father was a pathologist in New South Wales. “I’m not just some gutter slut,” she said.
 
*
 
We were talking about coronavirus at a soup kitchen. Someone speculated that it was a way of reducing the world’s population and that government leaders had been vaccinated.
 
*
 
Homeless Lil had a bandaged hand last week. She didn’t go to a doctor. Apart from her hand, she appears well and has recovered outwardly from her days living behind churches including St Luke’s at Whitmore Square.
 
*
 
Widely respected, ex-machine gunner in Iraq, “AJ” Stewart, works for the Aspire program at the Hutt Street Centre. He says that lots of homeless people have moved into Housing Trust units. He also said that lots of people in the homeless scene at the Hutt Street Centre have died.
 
The Aspire program might explain the disappearance of homeless people from Salisbury: either that or they’ve been taken away for experiments and their bodies dumped. Sounds weird? This is what homeless people talk about.
 
*
 
A spokeswoman at St Vincent de Paul said they don’t pay for bushfire appeal ads on radio station 5AA during the night. She said 5AA provides the time without charge.
 
It isn’t known for sure if the Salvos pay for their ads on the same radio station. The Salvo ads are during prime time and not the middle of the night.
 
*
 
A reliable source in the welfare scene said the police allowed patients at the old Royal Adelaide Hospital to sell a single tablet from their prescribed medication to the drug addicts that hung around the bus stop out front.
 
The police allowed this so the patients could use the drug addicts’ money to pay for their medication rather than go without.
 
*
 
An ex-volunteer said that rats used to take bites from the donated bread at Nanna’s Free Food Basket in Semaphore. Bronwyn has since remedied the situation.
 
*
 
A client at a soup kitchen said the reason few residents at a nearby government rooming house came for the free meal was that they were convicted paedophiles under home detention.
 
*
 
Rumour has it that chop-chop was selling for $80 a kilogram in Port Adelaide, but that it was mouldy and caused a lung infection similar to legionnaires disease.
 
*
 
Volunteers at St Paul’s Op Shop in Port Adelaide have been stressed out recently. They got a cash register and few know how to operate it. The cash register replaced a drawer where the money was kept and a note pad on which the sales figures were calculated.

Editor: It’s only a legal issue. If you’d put it into superannuation there wouldn’t have been any problem. They might fine you. They will probably deduct an amount from your Aged Pension over the next few years. It might be worth talking to a lawyer at the Magdalene Centre. And an account to maximise your position. There is usually a way to get out of these things if you have good legal advice. Also, pretend to be slow upstairs and somewhat unaware of reality. Either that, or legally determined and combative.

Elder brother of Jesus has
​one leg amputated

The elder brother of Jesus’s wife was at Salisbury Fred’s Van. She said a surgeon cut off one of her husband’s legs and he had become so frail he needed help getting out of bed.
 
His life was saved by a psychiatrist named Barrett. Other doctors would have drugged him into oblivion for saying Jesus was his younger brother, but Dr Barrett accepted his belief as perhaps delusional, but not a danger to his health. There should be a statue to Dr Barrett who jumped off a carpark roof.
 
She has known one-eyed Steve since they were twenty. Steve is getting more treatment for his bad eye at the RAH.
 
The takeaway food room was sparsely patronised. Sprouting potatoes were limited to two per customer. Plums were strange. A few shrunken apples and oranges, decent COS lettuce. No good bread and buns. Everything was in short supply and rotting or stale.
 
The meal was superb with Maranello pizza, hot crumbed fish, a nice salad without rotting contents, and other dishes I caught only a fleeting glimpse of. There were three types of salad dressing, but no salt and pepper on our table.
 
Everyone seemed in a good mood, even the dangerous couple who were smiling though that made me more nervous of them than before.
 
Orange Sky wasn’t there. Nor were there any obviously homeless people. Where have they gone? Kidnapped and melted down. This isn’t a lame attempt at a joke.

Where have the Salisbury

They’ve been chased from the Salisbury Football Club. They’ve been chased from the verandah of the old Anglicare building. We don’t see them at Fred’s Van next to PBA-FM. They aren’t camping in the Little Para River. They had mostly gone from the Victory Church BBQ before Christmas.
 
Where are they?

(above) Terry Hemming's Court in Gawler Place near Wakefield Street where Fred's Van serves free food. But on Wednesdays, the free food is served at 34 Whitmore Square, Adelaide. There should be signs telling homeless people of this fact. See the Free Food link for more details.

“Communist Party” free Sunday lunches at Whitmore Square

A Marxist group provides a free lunch on the grass at Whitmore Square every Sunday from 12:00 noon to 2:00pm. No registration or I.D. required. Anyone can go there. Best to arrive early.
 
A Salisbury filmmaker said it is a quality lunch and not gulag-quality.
 
This indirectly replaces Richard’s Teen Challenge free BBQ once a month at Whitmore Square that was discontinued after someone stole their BBQ van on Christmas Day at Elizabeth South.
 
It is rumoured, but not proven that it can be found on the Anangu Pitjantjatjara lands in the western desert.
 
“Communist Party” at Whitmore Square, Adelaide
Free excellent lunch on the grass at Whitmore Square on Sundays from 12:00 noon to 2:00pm. Best to arrive early. No I.D. or registration required. Homeless and underclass people welcome. They have replaced Teen Challenge after someone stole their BBQ van.

The truth behind Anglicare’s “Happy Couple” magazine story

​A happy elderly couple were pictured in the Anglicare Supporter magazine (Summer 2019-2020). They were shown in front of their colourful garden at their Anglicare rental home. Anglicare had encouraged them to enter a beautiful gardens contest.
 
What the magazine didn’t print was that the couple’s garden would be bulldozed flat within months due to dedevelopment of the site. The couple have been issued another unit, which they like, and to where much of their uprooted plants and trees will be transferred.
 
The magazine also didn’t include the fact that a drug dealer operated on their small street resulting in desperadoes arriving and leaving 24-hours a day. Numerous residents had complained, but the police took no action. The police told the residents to bring them proof, but didn’t say how that could be done.

The fine line between bribery
​and benevolence 

 From the anonymous contact page
 
“Swear this to be somewhat accurate: RTC was a rinky dinky little webpage organisation just a year or two ago. Now RTC claims to manage 10's of 1000's of properties?

“C'mon.That's something too strange to be legit.”

Editor: RTC Group sponsors a large number of indigenous sports teams. Either it is an extremely benevolent business or its sponsorships are a form of legal bribery. If it is a corporation with shareholders, then management is usually restricted to making donations only if they will maintain or increase profits for shareholders. It is a murky ethical area.
 
As to the sudden rise of RTC Group, it resembles the quick ascendancy of Neami National, the psychiatric business receiving $100 million of government grants to operate “psychiatric services”.

Fred’s Van Sunday at Elizabeth
 
A great place to raise the Adrenaline level in your blood. A man was yelling that a friend kept buying cheap phones then selling or losing them within three days. But the big problem was he’d borrowed an expensive phone from the yelling man, then disappeared.
 
Another man, this one with sores on his legs and arms, yelled at his girlfriend about missing tobacco. It turned out that he’d one pouch in his pocket and the other was in her handbag. He’s reasonable except when on the bad cycle of the crystal methamphetamine experience and then it is discomfort and fear all around.
 
“Here comes the lady’s man,” Tim’s mother-in-law commented on the ex-Ford car factory employee walking through the gates. She was right. He shook hands with every non-drug young woman under the gazebo. He avoided druggie women as they see life in black and white: what is good for them and what is not, and the Lady’s Man had run out of money and energy.
 
Marten gave an apiarist a CD Walkman and headphones and the apiarist gave me a jar of honey.
 
Mr Rock Solid and Rosie have been missing for some time. Mr Solid had trouble at St Paul’s cathedral in the city when he demanded confession, but instead got a security guard. He’d also got kicked out of the Food Barn for fighting with a paedophile though he had since returned unimpeded.  
 
The meal was meat or egg sandwiches, ham and salad with ice-cream and hot cross buns for dessert. An old fat man sat for one hour on the side counter, his dirty trousers touching the open cutlery containers while one dirty hand rested on top of the spoon container.
 
The fruit and vegetables were grabbed despite being old and mostly rotting. Piles of bread went untouched. The man with the high-pitched voice and reputedly castrated said it was a week old.
 
The atmosphere was relatively relaxed. The crowd was so big that the salad ran out before everyone was served. There weren’t any kitchen takeaways.
 
Fred’s Van Elizabeth Sunday
St Vincent de Paul Centre, 8 Langford Drive, Elizabeth (near Elizabeth railway station). 12:00 noon Sundays. 6:00pm Wednesdays. Free. 36 seat restaurant plus outdoor seating. No I.D. or registration required. Rowdy. Crowded. Takeaway bread and vegetables.

Tenant says he is victim of HousingSA’s new maintenance company

"Am being buggered by some RTC bugger organisation that bears SAGOV emblem on buggery notices. RTC comes around in the company of criminals and seems to be targeting me alone, not misfits. Could be $CIA$KGB$ Ki$$inger A$$ociates.

“Just dropped by TIAS (Tenants Information Advisory Service) in SACAT (SA Civil Administrative Tribunal) offices on Pirie Street and the long and intensive-serving TIAS representative said they had NO idea what "RTC Group" was or what it could represent.

“In other words, "RTC Group" is a newcomer, a recent entrant into the "social housing" market and that could spell TROUBLE, especially since "RTC Group" agents and molesters are going around to HSA tenants abodes with no proper or well-established tradition and are expecting themselves to be given full sway into tenants privacy and lives.

“Any notice or warning that this blog can give us to avoid "RTC Group" attempts to have us evicted or becoming victims to the EXTREME HIGH PRICE RENTAL MARKET would be greatly appreciated since we do not want to return to full-time rough sleeping or sub-standard lean-to shack accommodation.

“Thanks.”

Victim of HousingSA
​6 February 2020

(above) Arson attack on a Housing Trust (HousingSA) unit at Elizabeth. It was the second firebombing in one-year. Housing Trust bureaucrats originally plonked drug dealers into the complex with little regard for other residents. It appears the current residents are not druggies. This might explain why the repairs are taking longer than when the drug dealers were attacked.

Does the Red Cross have another little dirty trick?

A welfare insider said that the Red Cross makes recipients of bushfire grants sign a contract. This, according to the insider, forces each recipient to sign a secrecy clause preventing them from telling anyone about the fine details of the grant.
 
The second part of the contract is allowing Red Cross to pass on private details of the recipient of the grant to other “agencies”.
 
And this is how the Red Cross datamines recipients for its own benefit while giving away money donated to help bushfire victims, not the Red Cross.

The Lutheran Ark in Salisbury
 
Big crowd so an extra table was set up. The dining room and chairs were clean. Meal consisted of fresh food that contrasted sharply with partially rotten food, especially salads, served at the Food Barn and Kilburn Fred’s Van.
 
Sharon’s father died on Christmas Day aged 89. Peter Dawkins spent a week in hospital from dehydration. He said they stuck a camera into his stomach and the experience was horrible. A friend is worried about Peter’s safety as he hangs around the bus stops at the Salisbury railway station at night.
 
No drug dealers or addicts were present so everyone was relaxed. The meal included two types of vegetarian sausages and a plate of fried vege-patties.

(above) Nearly every welfare organisation or government department has a fleet of white cars like those above at Salisbury Housing Trust. Clients are discouraged from visiting their offices while employees instead visit homes to perform sly inspections. The imperative is data collecting for the establishment of a social credit points system in what some say is preparation for The Big Cull.

The tricky business of not providing a venue for crystal meth dealers

​Outdoor free food services are the most interesting. They attract people you’d never see anywhere else. They’re a great place to buy heroin and Ice.
 
That’s the problem. A church or benevolent group might start a free food service and believe they’ve attracted real homeless people.
 
But the reality is they’ve been colonised by drug dealers backed by ruthless distributors who have been allocated a franchise for a section of Adelaide.
 
The homeless are silently expelled unless they use or sell the product or both. The small-time dealers and junkies excel in charm while claiming to be homeless. Soon the people who supply the free food are singing the praises of Adelaide most ruthless junkies. Anyone who points out this colonisation is ostracised, if not threatened and attacked.
 
That’s the problem.

Radio station 5AA won’t disclose Bushfire appeal ad payments

The sales department of Adelaide Radio station 5AA won’t disclose whether the Salvation Army pays for bushfire appeal ads on the station.
 
5AA’s reluctance to say they’ve broadcast the ads without charge could indicate the Salvation Army paid for them. So, who ultimately pays for the ads? Those who donate to the bushfire appeal? Will the Salvation Army disclose this information?
 
As to Leon Byner who promotes himself as a journalist who finds the truth, will he say whether the station gave the air time free or did the Army paid for it?

Power through secrecy: how keeping a 92-year-old confused gives
​Anglicare more power

The 92-year-old tenant had a second fall last week. She called out from the back of her unit for 30-minutes. Neighbours thought she was calling her cat until she called their names.
 
But the first fall was what got her. She fell off her bed and couldn’t get up. Wendy, the Elizabeth librarian who delivers audio books to the 89-year-old blind neighbour next door heard the calls for help. She’d been on the floor for six-hours.
 
The 92-year-old has stopped using her front concrete steps for fear of falling and instead uses the stepped ramp at the back of her unit, where the African thieves broke in.
 
Her retirement complex at Elizabeth is slowly being emptied and the tenants transferred elsewhere by Anglicare under very generous terms.
 
But Anglicare won’t tell the 92-year-old or her blind neighbour when they will be transferred. The employee in charge of the transfer no longer answers emails. The tenants don’t even know if the units will be demolished or renovated. And this is the problem.
 
Anglicare is such a secretive organisation that any trickle of information to the tenants is seen as a vulnerability. But this secretive behaviour robs its elderly tenants of their own self-determination, of being able to plan for the future. It disempowers them.

Elizabeth Anglicare Food Barn
 
A homeless man packed his bedding into a shopping trolley at the back of the Food Barn.
 
Inside, the drug addicts’ table was occupied by non-users. The AMA security guard had targeted them one-at-a-time and made their lives miserable so they’d left. It had created an unpleasant atmosphere, but most diners were glad to see them gone.
 
An elderly man said he’d gone to school at the St. Joseph’s children’s home at Largs. He said he hadn’t been beaten or tied up in the cellar because he’d always obeyed the rules.
 
He said his right side was partly paralysed because his drunken father had crashed their car into a tree. He’d been four at the time and lying in the back seat and had crashed into the metal ashtray at the back of the front seat. He said the kindness and care of his mother over the years had saved his life.
 
A normal man said he’d taken nine-dollars of cans to the Scout recycling joint. Nine-dollars, he said, almost in disgust.
 
A 61-year-old man on the dole pays for his train tickets. He is slightly illiterate and hasn’t the ability to apply for a Seniors’ Card that would give him mostly free travel.
 
A Food Barn volunteer is getting heart surgery at a private hospital. He said he doesn’t trust government hospitals especially the Queen Elizabeth. He is poor and must spend a large proportion of his income on insurance.
 
Anglicare Mission Food Barn
91-93 Elizabeth Way, Elizabeth (near the shopping centre and police station)

The Greens political party have avoided Kangaroo Island during and after the fires. Locals said environmental laws prevented them clearing more than 20-metres around their houses.

Rosemary is an advocate for more protection for women who become victims of domestic violence. She wants less rights for men. Rosemary’s on-off boyfriend killed their son in a most brutal fashion.
 
Rosemary got a bigger Australia Day award some years back while Bettina’s was a lesser award.

Both St Bede’s at Semaphore and St Paul’s at Port Adelaide have secret stashes of food and hygiene items for homeless and desperate people, or drug addicts and house breakers who can recite a good story.
 
And by helping the drug addicts, the addicts’ welfare money goes to importers and sellers of heroin, M.D.M.A., crystal methamphetamine and more vicious drugs. That’s the dilemma of welfare, determining who are the junkies and who are genuinely desperate. And avoiding fueling evil people.

Red Cross has admitted they were holding back bushfire donations to instead spend on future causes. This isn’t new. Their chief fundraiser in Adelaide once told me they couldn’t attract donations to help sick old people so they ran a youth homeless campaign then used the money to help the old folk.
 
A Red Cross social worker said he didn’t see a cent from one homeless youth fundraiser being spent on their youth homeless shelter then operating on South Terrace, Adelaide.
 
Some fundraising is spent for their lost relative tracking service, which also operates as an arm of the Australian secret service.

And, to be fair, Red Cross also offers support to sex slaves in Adelaide brought over from Asia, then blackmailed into continuing the abuse.

Re: cockroach falls out of donated bread from the Salvo's.

“Scientists say that in the event of an nuclear apocalypse, the only creature on this earth that will survive largely unscathed, will be the cockroach. In the 1940's, and 50's, American nuclear scientists, put all manner of creatures at strategic points along ground zero (the blast zone of a nuclear bomb, where the blast rays do the most damage. The poor creatures that were chosen, included cats, dogs, pigs, goats, monkeys and cockroaches. Only one creature survived, with no apparent ill effects, the humble cockroach.
 
“The Bible tells us the meek will inherit the earth, I actually think it will the cockroaches. (Good luck to them, they can have what is left if the bomb is dropped, as far as I am concerned)

“On a slightly different note, once again I ask, why bother receiving mouldy, vermin infested giveaway produce. I used to accept this rubbish, until I found the good stuff.
​
“When I discovered I could get much better quality food out of supermarket bins, I never looked back. I found (and continue to find) all manner of goodies, from organic milks, to freshly baked buns, cheeses, smallgoods and quality fruit and vegetables and hot produce, that has only been cooked (sometimes) less than an hour before. There is no limit to what is thrown into the average supermarket bin and I as a seasoned bin diver avail myself to it all.
 
“I also find useable items like shoes, electrical goods, towels and pet food. A while back, I managed to find a quite expensive pair of sunglasses, a Nespresso coffee machine, a smart phone (without a charger) and a brand new but slightly soiled backpack (all of which I found a use for)

“I used to be shy about going through bins, but now I no longer give a shit (literary) Having to survive at various times, solely on Newstart has led to this. If I see some good stuff and I don't physically have to break into somewhere (I draw the line at activities that might give me 6 to 8 months for breaking into private property) but otherwise, if its there, and I am there, well you can guess what happens.
 
“I have been challenged a few times. I used to just leave quickly. Now I start barking, twitch and repeatedly mutter, bastard, over and over again and it works a treat. No flapper comes near me and I am left in peace, to bin dive to my hearts content. This keeps me and my pets fed and what is wrong with that. No begging for mouldy crap at charities for me!!!

Elizabeth Park free food
 
A man in the queue said his cats urinate and defecate on all his beds and pillows, but he won’t kill them.
 
Another man criticises the Horse Trainer Lady for “being everywhere”. The deceased Supreme Court Judge’s wife and son were also there, giving the joint a prestige few appreciated.
 
One client said going to the Peterswool church free food days was a social outing. Others agreed.
 
A pre-school girl was dressed in what could be described as sexualised clothing sold in mainstream stores. This is a product of Woke ideology and the Safe Schools ideology promoted in government schools. No wonder private schools that charge fees have waiting lists.
 
The woman who went to the Woolshed drug rehab joint for six-months texted after a few days that she wants to leave.
 
There wasn’t much free food, but some of it was decent and the bread was only two days old. There were also chilled scalloped potatoes, takeaway meat meals and yoghourt.

(above) Contrails from passenger planes are supposedly water that once disappeared within a minute, but now hang around for hours and form unusual clouds.

Does Code Red equal Code infection?
 
During extreme weather, the government declares a Code Red or Code Blue that requires the Hutt Street Centre and Baptist WestCare and other homeless joints to extend their opening hours. They may even provide one or two nights accommodation.
 
But what happens to those banned from these joints? The Code alert is to avoid deaths on the street, but what can they do with dangerous people, or those who pose intellectual threats to the dominant narrative and who have been banned?
 
Another concern is disease transmission. An image in the Baptist Care magazine shows camp cots placed half a metre apart in the Baptist chapel at WestCare. Those taking advantage of the safe abode spend the night in close proximity to people suffering the most diabolical infectious illnesses brought on by chronic exhaustion, immune deficiency, drinking water from the filthy Exceloo toilets and drug induced infections.
 
It raises the question as to whether Code Red and Code Blue are much more than publicity events especially considering that many water taps in the city and parkland areas ,including the tap that used to be in front of the Hutt Street Centre, have been removed.

Cockroach crawls off bread trolley at Marion Salvation Army

The donated unpackaged bread had been put in freezer bags for distribution to clients at the Salvation Army complex at Marion. A client took a loaf when a huge cockroach fell from the trolley.
 
“Look, a cockroach fell out of the bread,” he exclaimed. Another client sitting near the front door ran over and squished the squirming insect. It made a mess.
 
Another client ran around in circles moaning, “Ooh, ooh, ooh.” An Army employee told them to be quiet and leave it alone. Other clients returned their loaves of bread to the trolley. The man who alerted everyone to the insect made a discreet exit to avoid being blamed.
 
Storage is the problem. Where are pallets of rotting and old food stored from the time they’re donated to when the welfare client gets it? Are the vans and warehouses and other storage areas vermin-free? Do charities discover infested or partly eaten food, then throw away the obviously affected items before distributing the rest.

Elizabeth Park free food
 
It took me four years to discover that the free Coles bread is fresher on Thursdays than Mondays. Monday bread is from the previous week while Thursday bread is two-days old, the same age Coles at Elizabeth was selling Helga’s bread at full price last month.
 
The Adventist crowd at Peterswool Road have ditched the four visits a month rule so you can go there twice a week, apparently.
 
While the bread and pastries were good last week, the fruit and vegetables were terrible on my visit. The raspberries and strawberries were mouldy. The tomatoes tasted strange and horrible, but the parsnips, carrots and bananas were okay. The flavoured milk, white milk and packaged chicken meals were fine. That’s the challenge, one must become ruthless in throwing away what shouldn’t be eaten.
 
One client said his ex-girlfriend went to the Woolshed for drug rehabilitation. Another client said he had an “aggressive cancer”. Nearly every client going to the Adventist church for free food has a chronic and severe illness, or they’ve suffered trauma from multiple major surgeries and physical injuries.
 
One critic said he’d seen a woman going to soup kitchens then saw her coming out of the Coles liquor shop with a trolley of Heineken beer. He regularly criticises people for not really deserving free stuff. Most Peterswool Road clients are underclass and most don’t use drugs, but it is rare to see homeless people there, or at any welfare venue. In ten years of living outside with occasional starvation and destitution, I went to homeless or welfare joints perhaps 15 times, apart from the Department of Social Security (Centrelink).

The other evenings for City Fred's Van remain at Gawler Place at 7:00pm except for Sunday, which is 6:00pm and Saturday when there is no service. The famous St Vincent de Paul Night Shelter is on of the right of this picture.

New A.D.R.A. free food at Smithfield
 
This is the Parafield airport free food places moved to Smithfield. The new place is in a semi-abandoned shopping centre.
 
Seventh-day Adventist A.D.R.A. spent much time refurbishing the rooms, but stalled around Christmas. The coffee shop hasn’t opened and the area for free food and stuff for sale is quite small.
 
The manager wanted only to view my Centrelink card and didn’t record the details. Nor did he charge the old entry fee. The free vegetables were limited to decent cherry tomatoes, tolerable potatoes, decent carrots, cucumbers and plums. There was also free coffee pods and cans of three-bean mix with the labels falling off. But the free bread was either too hard or smelling sourly of fermentation. It was the type of bread that had a Best-By date the day after it was baked, but these loaves could have been over a week old.
 
Still, it was a nice visit. And the manager appears to work without pay.
 
A.D.R.A. Seventh-day Adventist at Smithfield

Modbury ​Savers Red Nose overwhelmed by donations

Last week, an employee of Savers Red Nose “Charity” Shop at Tea Tree Plaza shopping centre waited with four or five loaded shopping trolleys of unwanted donations. He was waiting for the rubbish truck to empty four already bulging industrial rubbish skips. There had earlier been a queue of cars unloading bags and bags of unwanted clothing. The rubbish truck finally arrived and emptied the four bins and the employee began immediately to refill them.
 
Savers Red Nose at Modbury is drowning in donations. Donated clothing is usually sold at 10-cents a kilo and sent to Africa where it is pulled apart to make new clothing.
 
 
Meanwhile, inside the high-rent store, the donated good are sold at outrageously high prices. The dodgy and secretive Red Nose charity gets part of the profits while the rest goes for operating costs and sending most of the profits back to the American hedge funds that own Savers.
 
Savers are that outfit that leave red plastic bags in your mailbox.

No more free Sunday breakfasts at Hope Centre in Elizabeth 

Hope Central church on Goodman Road in Elizabeth South has stopped their free breakfasts. They were every Sunday then reduced to twice a month then cancelled altogether.
 
The reason isn’t known. It could be that the congregation discovered they’d attracted a class of people they go to church from which to escape.
 
Hope Central is not connected to the Beacon of Hope Church of Christ in Elizabeth that hosts Faith Works on occasional Saturdays.

City Salvos to reopen Saturday service
 
City Salvos is opening their Saturday free meal service on the 15th of February, nearly eight weeks after closing down for the holiday period.
 
The current officer in charge isn’t popular with some clients because she got rid of the One Voice Shower van during renovations. It seemed an inconsiderate and insensitive action. For some, One Voice is an essential service.
 
The ceiling at the front of the building, known by soldiers as Adelaide Congress Hall, has fallen in again. It collapsed about three years ago onto Lance Armstrong’s shoulder. The Salvos were open and frank about that incident so Lance didn’t seek compensation though he did suffer a sore shoulder.

(above) Adelaide City Council warns owner in Whitmore Square to remove backpack and food. The confiscation threat notice suggests storing it at Byron Place Community Centre that closed in 2013. Meanwhile, Adelaide Lord Mayor Sandra Verschoor says, "The City of Adelaide is absolutely committed to finding solutions that support the most vulnerable.” Verschoor appears to be a puppet with professionally disguised strings except when one breaks and her face lolls to one side.

Salvos throwing donations straight into the rubbish bin

A worker at the Marion Salvation Army told a customer that they are so overwhelmed by donations that they throw bags of unsorted donations straight into their industrial rubbish bins.
 
Other Op Shop operators also say they are overwhelmed by the amount of donations.
 
But they don't lower their usually exorbitant prices.

Psychiatric boss replaces Ian Cox at the Hutt Street Centre

Chris Burns, the former Mental Health Commissioner of South Australia has replaced Social Worker Ian Cox as the Chief Executive Officer of the Hutt Street Centre. This signals a change from a social work attitude to homelessness to psychiatry with mind control and medication.
 
The Chair of the Board of Management at the Hutt Street Centre has also been replaced. Chiropractor Phil Donato has been replaced by Timothy O’Callaghan, a lawyer from Piper Alderman who specialises in intellectual property and international trade law.
 
Other members of the Hutt Street Centre Board of Management included former Housing Trust Executive Director, Phillip Fagan-Schmidt. He officiated over a period of keeping rental units empty and placing crystal methamphetamine dealers into groups of units occupied by elderly people. He was formerly with the Premier’s Department. He currently works for Altera Consultants along with former Equal Opportunity Commissioner Linda Rae Mathews.
 
Other Board Members include Andrew Cohen who was educated at Harvard Business School; Tim Hoban, lawyer; Noon McNamara, the General Manager at Maximum Energy, a solar panel outfit; Campbell Mackie, an expert in concrete and international adventurer; Sean van der Linden, a corporate tax adviser; Heather Parkes, a mysterious consultant; Lynda Forrest who has worked with multiple government departments.
 
There might be a Daughters of Charity nun somewhere in the mix, but no homeless representatives. Definitely not. Just one of them on the Board could result in leaks.
 
But with all these Humpty Dumpty experts from managerial backgrounds, they still can’t clear the toilets and shower rooms of bugs and faecal matter. Nor get rid of the drug dealers who prey on desperate homeless people. Rather, they’re drug dealers, but of another type: prescribed medications.

Rosanne Haggerty’s Artificial Intelligence (AI) tool at the Hutt Street Centre
(permanent post)

The Vulnerability Index-Service Prioritization Decision Assistance Tool (VI-SPDAT) is being introduced at Adelaide’s Hutt Street Centre during what they call “Connections Week” from 14 to 18 May 2018.
 
Those seeking most services from the Hutt Street Centre will be required to answer intimate questions, the answers to which will be entered into an international data base.
 
The rational of applying this algorithm is that by identifying people requiring huge amounts of medical and police interventions, then by taking control of their lives, the government can save money.
 
This solid argument belies the injustice that occurs in its broad application where bureaucrats will put every person living outside, or in their cars, through this intimate interrogation, then share the details with all and sundry. 
 
The manner of questioning will be through an electronic drip-feed with the client not seeing the complete list prior to agreeing to answer the questions. The mysterious owner of the algorithm says the sequence of asking the questions is vitally important. This is because the questions become increasingly intrusive and offensive as the client progresses through the list. Clients will not be given a copy of the completed answer list or be told who will have access to their most personal details.
 
While the clients will provide excruciating personal details of their lives, those collecting it will identify themselves in the diminutive form of their first names such as Ben, Liz or Trish. Any further enquiries will be met with a stern rebuke citing privacy issues.
 
The initial questions include a homeless person’s nickname, hospital attendances, instances of cooperation with or incarceration by the police, suicide or self-harm attempts, sexual prostitution, difficulty locating toilets, incidents of being kicked out of housing and why, and where doctors have refused medication.
 
The interrogator will also smell the clients, look for rotting flesh or puncture wounds, note whether their clothing is fashionable or mismatched, ask if the person drinks mouthwash, has been to a psychiatrist, considered suicide, was a slow learner at school or suffered “abuse”. All of which will be added to the secret file kept on the client.  
 
These questions are reasonable in certain circumstances where a person has consciously approached a professional for treatment. However, the plan is to subject every homeless person to them, that is, treat every person living outside as if they have been sexually abused, use Ice and sell themselves as prostitutes.
 
Answering such questions may subjectively feel like emotional vivisection for those already wounded and fearful. For the interrogator, it will be a pornographic experience where the wound will be tweaked at dozens of subsequent interviews, like a knife twisted in a wound. For the homeless person, the tightening of the interviewer’s smile, a hardening of the voice, even a wink will feel like a punch in the solar plexus.
 
The reader may agree that the test is for the greater good and that this increased suffering by the homeless class is a small price to pay. While there won’t be any pain for those conducting the interrogation, those undergoing it will come out feeling disgusted with themselves and fearful of the consequences of providing such personal details to total strangers. And fearful they should be, as the concept of privacy and dignity has gone from our society.
 
The interrogators will also be mandatory reporters legally required to pass on to the police or psychiatric authorities certain answers given by the homeless person.
 
For housing purposes, each positive answer to a question gets 1 point. Anyone scoring 3 or less is told to leave; 4-7 progresses the client to another series of questions to assess them for “rapid re-housing”. However, scoring over 8 points wins the dubious prize of “supported housing”, which means having their personal life monitored and controlled and may include compulsory medication.
 
The drip-feed method of asking questions is designed to immerse the homeless person in the interrogation process, making it harder to withdraw for fear of incurring the displeasure of the interviewer and the sickening feeling of having given sensitive information to a stranger who has suddenly adopted a hostile countenance.
 
Aggressive street beggars use a similar technique with their initial ultra-friendly approach while asking for a dollar, which upon receipt of the coin progress to a threatening demeanour while subsequently demanding a larger amount.
 
The last question asked by the VI-SPDAT interrogator at a homeless joint such as the Hutt Street Centre is, “OK, now I’d like to take your picture so that it is easier to find you and confirm your identify in the future. May I do so?”
 
This artificial intelligence algorithm tool is a progression from the Social Inclusion Adelaide CBD homeless count initiated by Monsignor David Cappo and administered by bureaucrat David Waterford in 2007.
 
We in the homeless scene laughed at the absurdity of that inaccurate count, which continues to this day, but it was Cappo, Waterford and the government bureaucrats who had the last laugh. The count was camouflage to disguise personal data collection on those living outside. The pledge of anonymity was deceit as the provision of initials and partial birthdate were enough to identify the responder across multiple private and government data bases. In this exercise, Baptist and Catholic homeless charities ran with the wolves.
 
The Don Dunstan Foundation is the current sponsor of the VI-SPDAT algorithm tool. In a media release offering a briefing on the results of their data collection onslaught, they advertised that, “During Connections Week, dedicated workers and volunteers across Adelaide will get to know every person sleeping rough by name…”
 
This newer and more powerful personal data list created using this algorithm, along with photographs, will be handed over to a psychiatric services provider called Neami National, a Melbourne-based corporation posing as a non-profit organisation with 900 employees.
 
Neami is contracted to replace Adelaide’s Street-to-Home psychiatric service that conducted interviews with homeless people in busy cafes. Armed with the data base and photographs in their tablets, Neami employees will be able to search out and identify homeless people in the Adelaide CBD and surrounding parklands.
 
Where the Hutt Street Centre’s C.E.O., Ian Cox, comes into this is not clear. Ian has for decades championed the right of self-determination for his clients.
 
Yet David Pearson, the executive director of the Don Dunstan Foundation, said, “The Hutt Street Centre in Adelaide are going to help us run Connections Week where we go out and make a connection with every single person sleeping rough.”
 
Pearson added, “It starts with knowing every person sleeping rough in the city by name and creating what we call a ‘by name list’.”
 
This means that the Hutt Street Centre will deliver its clients to Neami, a private psychiatric corporation, which must give Ian Cox sleepless nights.

  The Hutt Street Centre and Kent Town Rotary are portraying Robyn as homeless for the purpose of collecting money. However, Robyn is not homeless. She has lived  for years in a comfortable home in an exclusive suburb across the South Parklands and within walking distance of  the Hutt Street Centre. Rotary may not know this, but the Hutt Street Centre does as Robyn has been going there for decades. This is a problem with homeless welfare where  clients get drawn into an agency's  propaganda unit. Robyn has had a tumultuous life and has adapted her tactics to meet those challenges and her endurance is a credit to the survival skills of humanity.
