Happy to fill in the link ... May 21st ... missed it by that much...

I must be out of touch. Massage gun?.. The mind boggles.

Would have been a good time to release the snakes on the plane.

I used to spend a lot of time in the bush. We lived on a dead end road with a reserve right over the fence. There was a lot of nasty stuff going on in my home as I was growing up. I used to escape to the bush to get away from the violence. It was a sanctuary. We had the best cubby house any...

If my hubby had access to such a drug when he was in the midst of his battle, I reckon he would have felt the world was his oyster. This is such a positive thing and can only make the battle against the god awful disease a little more bearable. My Johnny faded away to a shadow and he knew the...

I grew up during the hippie years. This joker reminds me of a select few who lived their life without responsibility. Those were the days of make love not war, travel the country without a care in the world, frolic in the meadows and pick flowers to make garlands for the hair, don't shower...

This business of working to a certain age has a lot of shady areas. Not everyone miraculously reaches a fine old age and remain fit enough to keep working long enough to top up the Government coffers. Cancer got my darling. Before that he suffered a life altering accident that resulted in a...

My husband died in his 70's

Looks like councils all over the country are cut from the same cloth. Run by idiots.

I have had my fair share of doing battle with Council. The last involved a back fence neighbour who loved complaining to council about the littlest things. He even got on a ladder and took photos of our deck, then, demanded action from council. We ended up with clipboard armed council marauders...

I only had one question when reading this. Who the hell is Judo Bank. So, Mr Google was consulted. I now know why I have never heard of it ... it's a digital bank. This story reinforces my reluctance to deal with financial advisers, whether within a bank, or satellite. I will never, ever trust...

I am such a lucky possum. I got a special letter from Energy Australia begging forgiveness. When asked, I ticked the Green Energy box. I was quite happy to do so because there was no charge involved. So, the letter was sent to all customers because they got a slap in the hand and were told to...

Entitled brat. Off with her fake eyelashes...grrr.
