    The benefits and risks of sleeping next to your dog

    Our previous dogs have slept on our bed and I welcomed them. The dog we have now would hop on the bed when my husband got up but wouldn’t sleep with us through the night. Now he doesn’t get on the bed at all. Now the cat is another story. He was a rescue, we got him at age six and hes now 14 and...

    $25 Kmart dress dividing Australia: Fashion-forward find or glorified nightie?

    The only clothes I buy for me from KMart lately are jeans, which are really good. Everything else, to me looks cheap and nasty. We recently won a $500 gift voucher, do you know how hard it is to spend $500 in KMart? We’ve been in three times and still got over a hundred left. We mainly bought...

    Nicole Kidman ‘didn’t want this’—the truth behind the split nobody saw coming

    I just feel it’s no ones business. I’d hate to be famous. Relationships end every day but it must be so much worse when everyone is scrutinising and picking at every aspect of it all. I feel sad for their children, having to hear/read about private things concerning their parents.

    Don’t click that link! You won’t believe how easily scammers can trick you with fake settlements

    I don’t click on any links or believe any random emails I receive. Now trying to get my husband to do the same is another matter. He is forever bringing his phone to me saying “what do I do now” after seeing some click bait offer of something wonderful. Luckily his tech knowledge stops him from...

    Experts uncover worrying details about staple consumed by households every single week

    These microplastics are in everything. It’s something we are not going to avoid unfortunately. I just don’t worry about it. Honestly, I think the stress would do more harm tbh

    Experts are alarmed! This year’s tick season could be the deadliest yet—are your pets safe?

    I treat my dog and cat with Nexgard on the first of every month. We are in a tick area, so far so good with their treatment

    Startling scene shows magpie swooping behaviour reaching alarming levels this season

    If I was this lady I’d have the house on the market straight away lol. With my bird phobia I wouldn’t leave the house! Touch wood, I’m pretty lucky where I walk with the dog. There are a few magpies around but they don’t bother us. My husband saw a cyclist on the highway getting swooped the...

    Never been a fan of Clinkers, or Jaffas. They are just too hard to bite. I’m a bit precious lol

    Shopping center safety under scrutiny as weapon violence sparks community concerns

    The police are doing there job its the judges and the courts that are letting us down. The police are just as frustrated as the rest of us. These repeat offenders that keep getting bailed are laughing at the system. The whole thing is a joke - them and us know that, only we’re not laughing

    THIS $8 Kmart kitchen gadget is a relief for seniors tired, aching hands

    I got one of those choppers free from Coles. I gave it to my daughter in law but it didn’t last long so she bought one of these KMart ones. I must ask her how it’s going

    ‘They’re already inside’: Hi-tech crooks use new break-in method

    We got a deadlock installed between the garage and the house but reading this I think we need to do more. Our remote for the garage sits in the car, I think that might need to change for a start
