    I don't want to sound racist because I am not. I respect everyones culture but when it is pushed onto me when I am in a place that's when I get annoyed. (that crap) It is happening more and more and it makes one not want to go to these places anymore.

    Steal of a deal? Street sales of stolen goods surge amid cost-of-living crisis!

    Is it the cost of living that these thefts are taking place or is it greedy unscrupulous person/criminal ring getting money selling these products to make money from the poor person. If it was a person desperate because of the cost of living pressures they would not take 10 coffee jars and a bag...

    Overhauled speed limits may save more lives in one state

    They can put the speed limits to 10km/h and there will still be road fatalities. A lot of people don't know how to drive. Then there are the one's that think they are to only ones on the road. There are more automatic cars on the road so it's kind of jump in and point the car in a direction and...

    I always thought it's easier to get warm when it's cold. Until I lived in South Australia and Tasmania. There I was chilled to the bone and it was so hard to warm up. I don't particular like the humidity but living in Queensland it's part and parcel of Summer

    What is the world coming to? The a***ole that did this once caught should be named and shamed. Then if anything happens to him he has deserved it

    Planning a family adventure soon? Here are some massive changes happening in one iconic destination

    I have seen the Field of Lights and we did a camel tour from just outside the resort to the area where the lights were, it included canapés and beverages . It was amazing and worth the money.

    'How do I stop this from happening?': Users express concern over latest iPhone 'glitch'

    Not good enough. The reason one buys Apple products was because they were safer than Android. Why pay the money if you are not getting security you are supposed to. I am an Apple fan but I don't update my phone/iPad/Macbook every time a new one is released. Maybe by the time I buy the iPhone 18...

    Controversy erupts over Aussie mum's fury at Nissan Navara's parking choice – Whose side are you on?

    That would be a good idea but people are stupid and the person in a mini will say it's their god given right to park where they want and then complain if a big car is parked in their designated area. We have designated spots for parents with prams, seniors, disabled and everyone is whinging...

    Transform Your Caravan Experience with This $25 Bunnings Gem

    I put our toothbrushes and toothpaste in a plastic toothbrush/toothpaste container and put that in with the toiletries and bath towels. We also don't have a van with a toilet/bathroom and our caravan is only 15ft long. So no room to stick things everywhere

    Brazen heist involving a senior citizen raises serious questions

    That is so sad. The people that we assume are there to protect us are the one's that are are taking advantage of us. How will we know who are the goodies and who are the baddies??????

    Electrical & Electronics Steam Iron $7.50 @ Kmart

    I'd be very weary of this iron. I know you can get cheap electrical items but this can do some real damage if it falters i.e burns, electrocution. I for one will avoid this
