Very clever, Skipton!

Trump is not alone in trying to rule the world. There are other people in our government who think they can take action on our behalf without any consultation with the general public. They are put there by the general public to follow what the majority want and need but rarely deal with their...

It all started to go wrong with children's behaviour when we were no long allowed to spank them for wrong doing. Teachers do not help as they tell childen their rights during school classes which only provokes the children to do the wrong thing. Some parents are without consciences and do not...

Before attending a show at Twin Towns RSL Club in TweeedHeads/Coolangatta many years ago where we had two English Comedians entertaining, we were advised before it started that they would not tolerate interruptions of any kind and any person doing so would be thrown out. I think this is an...

I only answer call from numbers I recognise. If I accidentally answer a call from someone I don't know then I keep telling them to speak louder as I am partly deaf. That usually is enough to make them hang up.

The increase in age pension payments will not cover the increase in grocery prices and other essentials. Are they trying to make us starve to death so they will not have to pay us anything at all. But I bet if a crowd of us were to die the rest won't get any benefit payments from that...

When an old man suddenly fell ill, his family decided to send him to Florida for two weeks rest and recuperation by the sea. However, towards the end of the second week, the man's condition deteriorated and he died. His body was shipped back home nd his family gathered around the open coffin to...

Our medical clinic is entirely reliant on computers. One day about two years ago, I and many others, had appointments with various doctors on duty but the computers had crashed and we were turned away and told to go to the hospital if our condition was urgent. The doctors were in the clinic...

It really depends on the person at Centrelink that you deal with. Some are extremely helpful and some have an attitude that they are always right. I found when I lived in Lismore the staff at Centrelink were most unhelpful and had a self-righteous attitude thinking they are always right. On...

I had another email today, supposedly sent from Telstra and it certainly looks genuine except for the "from" which reads "No-reply". It says that my online payment was not successful and I need to update my details with Telstra. I had a genuine email from Telstra just days ago advising that...

Early on Monday morning I thought there was a power cut but was mistaken as when I range later to find out when the power was likely to be put back on, I was told there was no power cut. They sent somebody out to find out what was wrong and he found the padlock still in place and the lid of the...

To add to the worry of the cyclone, I had a break-in on Monday night when the intruders even took my handbag from beside my bed whilst I was asleep, containing my purse and my Pension card and Medicare card. Also my house keys and my car key. They didnt use the car key to open the car but used...

The law at the moment in NSW at least have no power to do anything to punish the children or their parents. It has been changed in Queensland recently and our local MP is trying to get it changed in NSW.
