    Music meets motherhood: Superstar’s on-stage pause fuels parenting divide

    Maybe she blew all her money on tickets to the show instead of paying a babysitter. So selfish ... I am lost for words. Yep...Maria's lost for words LOL

    From royal gardens to your backyard: This royal's morning ritual that's got everyone talking

    Ooooh .... those were the days. I used to love walking barefoot in the rain. Off came the shoes and the 4 of us would walk home barefoot sloshing in the rush of water. We all survived with no foreign objects impeding our progress. My poor mum used to go nuts because we didn't bother with...

    Christmas displays have Aussie shoppers divided: Why your wallet might be the real victim

    I am a huge fan of the IGA Christmas Club. For me, the inconvenient expense is the big silly season food shop. I pay into the club by direct debit every 2 weeks and receive a charge card at the end of the year as well as bonus dollars, and product, like a fruit cake. So, I do one shop a few days...

    Dog poisoning alert! Owners face shocking $4000 vet bills from toxic pellets spotted at local park

    Crazy world we live live in... hey. When I do bulk return & earn I have to provide my licence number. My $40 odd dollars will be more than enough to buy me that trip overseas. I am a big tax risk too I'd say. Yet, poisons can be bought at the supermarket. Go figure. People should be made to...

    Those childhood toys stuck in your house could be worth a fortune—but finding them will cost you

    We didn't have a bunch of toys growing up. I played with the chickens, milked the cow, helped in the garden, and rode the hand me down bicycle at 7am every day to deliver milk to the nuns. I didn't even have a doll. Quite honestly, we really didn't miss having toys. Our playground was the bush...

    Leave us a review and help more seniors discover the magic of the SDC! ✨

    I have been told I could talk the door off a poo-house. Truth be told, this really only applies to family. I'm a shy violet in group gatherings with strangers. I do, however, love the written word. That's where SDC comes in. It's great to have the chance to offer honest opinions and be able to...

    Scrolling on the toilet increases your risk of haemorrhoids, new study shows

    Well....this justifies the thousands of dollars in research grants. Real bummer dude.

    Is saying 'toilet' gross? This American expat says so

    Love the idea of going to the sandbox. This opens the door for me to perplex the grand kids.

    Is saying 'toilet' gross? This American expat says so

    Storm in a teacup. Anything to get the face on social media. Absolute load of twaddle. Mind you ... I'd like to see what she would do if she asked for the "bathroom" and ended up in one where there is no toilet...it does happen.

    Simple yard job turns shocker as $200 plants vanish overnight

    I have artificial grass on my tiny front yard. Only need to sweep up stray leaves. I love it. The grass on the footpath is mowed by someone who did a great deal with my 2 neighbours and myself and I never have to worry about it. I look after my own pot plants and would trust nobody else to...

    You can beat bathroom mould with this $2 Kmart find—here’s how

    I use a Micro fibre cloth after every shower. At the moment the Koala brand is the best I have ever used. It wipes dry and cleans the glass and walls, and, gets right into the grout. If this is done after every shower (only takes a few minutes), it's like an insurance policy. We moved into this...

    Water cremation mishap raises questions about new funeral method

    The price of the water cremation is thousands more than I pre-paid for my funeral. I am having a cremation without a ceremony and put money aside for those I love to have a gathering after. This is what my hubby wanted because he said he didn't want a room full of people crying and others...

    Ramsay Street just lost one of its most iconic LGBT characters—and fans can’t stop talking

    I watch the show. As far as Matt is concerned, it wasn't too shabby watching him play a male stripper. He has the right moves. I am going to miss the show. There is so much young and old Aussie talent out there and it's never a bad decision to support home grown talent.

    Grandkids Slang: 'Chopped'

    First thought, and, it has no relevance to hair. I add chopped onions to my meatloaf.
