    Member Spotlight: Fighting isolation one joke at a time with @Skipton

    Spaghetti harvest? Sounds like one for April Fool's day. Reminds me of an article on Channel 7 News many moons ago on April 1st where a gent was planting strands of spaghetti taken from a wheelbarrow.

    Hospital trial pushes for better support for senior Aussies. How can you benefit from it?

    Sorry to hear this. In today's world both situations are unacceptable.

    Aussies stunned after ancient discovery uncovered near popular camping destination—find out what was unearthed!

    An interesting story. Finding a fossil of this age is exciting giving rise to the belief other such finds may be possible in the area.

    I am not good with names but his photo l did recognise. The movies names are familiar & l have seen some of his movies. Good entertainment. RIP Donald.

    Not a good situation when $'s take a greater priority than a patient's health.

    Yes would clear up a lot of mis-understanding Wombat with so many States sharing similar names for suburbs. He is correct. Belmont in W.A. is close to the city of Perth, the Casino, Race Courses etc & is a little more expensive to live in, whereas, once the railway updates are finished, Armadale...

    Tragic fall at a popular venue leaves woman in her 70s fighting for life—here’s what we know so far

    There appear to be a few assumptions in your statement such as 'sloshed' & 'the gearstick position'. Definitely designed to Australian Standards that prevailed at the time. Upgrades require staff, possibly Inspectors, Rangers or Engineers from the local Council doing their job properly. How...

    Don't say lightning won't strike more than once in the same place. Human error, yes l agree & common sense should prevail when designing any balcony railing above the 1st floor. Not every person is like you & l & take dangerous situations into account when using these areas. Many people use...

    I did say in my original statement Murdoch W.A. l had no ideal you were in a different State because you said Armidale & no mention of a state until this comment when you stated NSW. Thanks for clearing that up. [not as if you can do as mentioned in the joke of the lady on the boat when asked...

    I would suggest that there is an immediate need to review standards for such structures in light of the recent incident taking note of different apparatuses used by people in high rise buildings. The obvious solution is to do away with aesthetic glass panels which are not safe in upper floor...

    Are you referring to Armadale in W.A. & if so what is the name of the attached Private Hospital which at one time may have been Galliers? St. John of God Hospital at Murdoch is of course not attached to any other Hospital. Meals are requested a minimum 1/2 an hour before wanted, prepared in the...

    Who is policing those standards to make sure they are adhered to & if those standards aren't stringent enough for today's conditions what body is going to correct this anomaly before someone is killed?
