Spend it while one can. I intend to.

Working in the Community, Age Care, I was driving a lot. Always had a yearly Skin Check. This particular one, the Dr, asked when had I noticed the large brown colouring on my jaw line. Right side. Just thought it was one of those Age spots. No, it was a large deep Melanoma. Week...

When living in Grafton, NSW, we often went to the tip to get recycled compost/soil. It was by the recycling plant. Guess Who were the people working it. Not Australians. People from overseas, mostly from Asian and Phillopines who did the job of sorting.

So pleased that the concept is now in Australia. When doing a Dementia Course, (working both in a Facility and the Community) a number of years ago, I read that the concept is also in other European Countries.

Isn`t it about time that all States and Councils are on the same page when it comes to recycling. so much just goes to land fill. No one knows what is allowable.

I have the same problem. Drive a Sedan, but these yank tanks, sit on your bumper. Always make sure I`m doing the speed limit, and use cruise control when out on the open road. But these AH`s think they own the road. Always glad when there is a straight, they can overtake...

Unfortunately, it is necessary to control wild dogs, who then kill young calves, lambs etc. Our beautiful dog died by eating meat with this poison. My Husband had taken his Sister up the mountain (on a Friends Farm) (also knew that bait was around) but got distracted, and didn`t realise...

Looks like when I travel south again, (go down the inland road, Biloela, Kingaroy etc) I will have to stock up on Peanuts. I sometimes go through Childers, Lovely town, but Bruce H`way is a disgrace, but buy Kingaroy Peanuts there at the Peanut Van. Far superior than imported nuts...

So true what Mandy has stated. So many so called Healthy treats are full of additives, extra sugar and chemicals. But then when one sees the amount of soft drinks in trolleys, the healthy ones ?????? with artificial sweetner. Even where I volunteer, at a Base Hospital, all drinks...

One is dead a long time, so enjoying what one loves is important to ourselves. I grind my own coffee beans, and use a plunger. Easy to take away, when travelling in a car. Had one in our caravan. My Husband liked instant. I don`t like instant, and I don`t like paying all the time for...

Hopefully the money from fines are directed into roads, and fix them properly. Not just a load of hot mix thrown into the hole.

Having worked in Age Care, (Community) Having an OT visit Clients to access their mobile ability, is so important. So many have a wheelie walker, bought by Family, but they walker is too low for them. They are not aware that the handles can be lengthened. Plus the OT also accesses...

Common sense, If a human is sick, go to the Doctor. If an animal is sick, go to the vet.

So agree

Well in Qld, hopefully they will also pick up drivers with cars not roadworthy and have them taken off the road. And, agree with Andrew. The roads in Qld are a disgrace. The extension of the Gold Coast H`way, from Smith St, 6 years and still not finished. Bruce H`way from North of...
