    Global health alert: New virus spreads across continents amid climate and urbanisation concerns

    Usual predictable trash knee-jerk reactions coming up from the Trumpistannians. Don't drink and drive, laddies. otherwise the ELITES of the DEEP STATE will fine you for improper behaviour. And BEWARE SEA SALT; it has microchips in it (cheaper than getting you microchipped by vaccination).

    Unlock the secret to preventing colon cancer with this top oncologist's daily meal plan – Read now!

    What is a "side"? A side of beef; a side of bacon? Potatoes kept the Irish peasantry reasonable healthy until about 1841-42.

    Unlock the secret to preventing colon cancer with this top oncologist's daily meal plan – Read now!

    What's with the American stuff? Do people in Australia do such research? I note boiled cabbage in the rejected dish in the photograph. My theory is that boiled cabbage causes cancer. Eskimoes used to eat whale meat and blubber, and who wouldn't blubber if they had to eat whale meat? I once ate...

    An Aussie's 25-cent gesture completely confuses McDonald's employee — Find out why!

    I used to do that at Woolworths (overpay to get a precise dollar amount back) thinking I would be making it easy for the cashier;no way, I only do it for amusement now. However, I can still count out 16 ounces on four fingers and 14lbs (1 stone) on two and do multiples thereof on the other hand...

    Outrage in Melbourne: How a Tiny Patch of Grass Turned into a Massive Battle Worth Thousands!

    Another utterly stupid City Council. If City Councillors are concerned about the pollutant effects of artificial grass why do they drive their SUVs to work and back, parking on bitumen and perhaps using their free allowance of petrol or diesel to do so? Hobart City Council provides free fuel for...

    Is your car at risk? Company recalls over 55,000 vehicles over deadly hazard!

    A few days ago it was 155 000 vehicles with a modern computer defect. Now its another 55 000, this time a fuel pump issue. For the sake of common sense! I have owned cars with a mechanical fuel pump and a float in the carburetor(s). Both monitored fuel flow according to the pressure on the cable...

    Government Services Minister unveils revolutionary ‘gold standard’ in digital security

    Correction. This government is not Communist. It is right-wing labour which is sort of like the Eden/MacMillan Conservative governments back in the 1950s in the UK. This digital ID card is what I would expect of a fascist government of the sort that ran Spain in the late 1930s-1970s, or PR...

    Flu fighters: Experts warn of avian threat looming Down Under

    Whether Covid escaped from a laboratory in PR China or jumped from some animal to a human may be a moot point and it may produce flu-like symptoms at the outset of infection, but it is a virus distinct from common-or-garden flu and it certainly does damage that c-o-g 'flu would appear not to do...

    'Households are being overwhelmed': Delayed $300 rebate sparks outrage among Aussies

    That's the price of privatisation and thus foreign ownership of Australia's critical infrastructure.

    Pumpkin Shock: How the dwindling supply is going to hit your wallet HARD!

    That bolding was self-inflicted by the text; I didn't do it. See; MS Word objects to spoiling butter milk and cheese by inserting them into pumpkin soup! Semolina pudding reminds me of frogs' spawn in boiled milk. I gather it is the same stuff as tapioca which is a staple of the diet in Sepik...

    Pumpkin Shock: How the dwindling supply is going to hit your wallet HARD!

    It can be turned into a useful soup if you add butter, grated cheese and milk, but I never could see the justification for spoiling one's butter, milk and cheese. In my good old days of UK school lunches the cooks used to add swede to an otherwise decent beef stew; I think it was in the days of...

    Fraudsters exploit vulnerabilities in Aussies’ myGov accounts, fuelling financial chaos

    Quite probably. I apologise for slandering the intelligence of the American Association of Turkeys. ATT ; American Telephones and Telecommunications, perhaps.
