I found the UI of the McDonalds App excrutiatinugly slow and even then it inexplicably hangs in a perpetual loop. Haven’t felt the effort was worth it for a discount off of their high prices for mediocre food offerings. Has a serious case of Bipolar disorder and it’s a gamble as to whether the app will behave and half the time have had to step out of the waiting line due to this app misbehaving.

Originally installed it and decided to try out McDonalds again after a long absence because they were running their weekly specials though it looks they’ve since stopped those and replaced it with some flashy but incredibly glitchy in-app game thing (their version of Monopoly)

Uninstalled the app. I feel this company isn’t respectful of my time nor appreciative of my custom and I expect it will be a while before darken their door again.

Unfortunately, I sense property prices may be on their (silent and sneaky) march upwards despite media reporting to the contrary.

The real issue I have with inflated house prices is that it’s makes everyone’s lives difficult and apart from the issues faced with aspiring first home buyers. It also presents  issues elswhere including

• For existing homeowners who may want to move to another property more suited to their current living arrangement. Bridging finance, fees based off a percentage of the value of the property.
• Takes money away from the productive economy.

Unfortunately, I can’t see this changing anytime soon. There’s still too much money flowing around that is looking for a home (pun not intended) to go to not helped by increasing cost of compliance red tape surrounding Health and Safety, Anti Money Laundering and increasing provision to guard gainst all manner of increasing exposure to liablity events (everyone is mobilizing to arse cover).
