    Couple slapped with hefty fine for seatbelt error - but there's more to the story...

    Ask the police and emergency responders about people who dont wear their seat belt correctly - bodies smashed to pieces, having to tell their loved ones that their loved family member is dead. Pay the fine mate. If your wife wishes to sit with her feet up on the dashboard, she should be told of...

    Should you reduce your assets to be eligible for the Age Pension?

    Good on this couple for saving and managing to have that amount of savings. People may say this couple dont need the pension etc however we should remember that they more than likely would have paid a lot of tax in their life time to save or be in possession of that amount of savings. What...

    Couple loses $100k life savings to text message scam

    If I get contacted by email or text I dont even reply. I visit the bank (bit hard now as they are closing) or I contact the bank myself via phone. I NEVER EVER click on a link. Even with Telstra - just tell the scammer to buggar off and that you will go into the Telstra office which is 5 minutes...

    From sketches to real-life dresses: Granddaughter honours grandmother by recreating her old designs

    My good friend lost her husband very unexpectedly about 5 months ago and her grand daughter asked her if she could have her Grand dad's favourite shirt. So that request was granted. A few weeks later she returned with the shirt, made into the most beautiful teddy bear that could sit on the bed...

    This seat-spreading dispute on a flight is dividing people online – was it rude or reasonable?

    I had this same problem with a larger person (male) Firstly he spread his elbows across to my area of the seat. As the person near the window was small and I am as well, I just thought oh well. Then he had a feed then got his laptop out and put his headphones on and then spread his legs worse...

    Woman takes out bins, gets shamed by neighbours — find out why!

    I think that the person who wrote the note needs to find a life, a hobby or something to do. Its like if you dont like something on TV - dont watch it. Change the channel or turn it off. So if you see your neighbour doing this, just look away. The problem belongs with the complainer. I love the...

    One family’s ‘absolutely disgraceful’ discovery at their Airbnb ruined their whole holiday!

    I tried Air Bnb once - never even got past the booking stage. First one took our money then called us 2 days later to say they were now going overseas - they did refund the money. Second one well all I will say is if their home was like their attitude it would be a crap place to stay. I think...

    This woman's nauseating act on a three-hour plane trip has people talking

    Sadly the current World that we live in has forgotton that word and its meaning and it is all about themselves and what they are entitled to. Can you imagine if someone sat beside her and farted for the three hours. She would have been the one complaining the loudest. Inconsiderate does not even...

    British expat’s scathing review of popular Aussie town has locals fuming

    Another person still wet behind the ears who only thinks about herself and her own needs and selfish wants. Took her four years to think these things so why anyone would take notice of some small brained self entitled opinionated whinging Pom, she is an insult to those who come here and look for...
