Why?

Silly buggers both work from home and spent 750 grand on a one bedroom city appartment. Working from home gives you option to live basically anywhere. I live in an area where the same money will buy you a 3 bedroom house, 2 minutes walk from the water, walking distance from doctors, physio...

On Thursday I was in Bunnings and as usual, had a chat with the lady on the checkout. It doesn't hurt to treat servers as human beings. I was absolutely stunned to hear that she cops abuse at least 5 times a day. What the hell is the world coming to, when this is one persons experience, when...

FFS, I reckon even your average 'working girl' (yes I do mean prostitute) works harder than any influencer, pays tax and has an 'honest' job.

I've had some very expensive parcels delivered to the wrong address. It was a holiday home, visits by the owner on a very random schedule. This was not Aus Post, it was Star Trak who claimed no responsibility as they had palmed it off to a third party who they wouldn't/couldn't name. Only got...

Sorry 'gecko'.

The health news (positive) is always great to hear but today, I just have to vote for the gekko.

My experience with Aus Post deliveries is absolutely 100% positive. The couple who deliver our parcels are perfect. They are delivered to our door, the deliverer sings out 'parcel', hits the doorbell/camera and even calls me by name when delivering.

I can't wear anything that sits so high in the neckline. Is there another way to support this cause?

Not to mention cooking cream. It's getting very hard to source and some supermarket staff have either not heard of it, or have no idea where to find it. Sad when the big supermarkets let you down and you have to finish your shopping at the local IGA. It used to be the other way around.

AI my arse. Absolutely no need for this. If it's for a doctor to review their notes/consultation, surely a simple (and local) recording would do? It could then be erased at the patient's request.

No chance and no need. Our local post office is also a newsagent, lottery office and general store, as are most in our region. Live outside a city? Juzt adjust your expectations.

I wonder how many people (besides the ones I know) are now very cautious about buying Chinese made 'rugged' vehicles? Most here have so far failed to live up to expectations.

So it's going to be impossible to buy your grandies a second hand 'anything' as I do, just to see if they lose interest quickly? I always do this with bigger ticket items before spending a lot more on the new item. And bugger the poor guys who just have to unload some belongings just to feed the...
