    Energy advocates criticise new charges on users: 'Madness and rip-off'

    THIS IS NOT HOW AUSTRALIA SHOULD BE!!! Nor ever was; the UK just made it for few years between 1945 and 1979.

    Energy advocates criticise new charges on users: 'Madness and rip-off'

    Sodium will replace lithium in due course and there is plenty of that stuff in the sea, although sea water will have to be evaporated by solar power to obtain it and the sodium will have to separated from the chlorine. Besides the sea, there are also salt mines and salt domes the latter being...

    Mayor shares plan to slash your energy bills with this strategy

    You ought to have learnt by now that our politicians only do things when it is profitable to be re-leceted. The Mayor of the City of Melbourne was getting just over $250 000 a year as Honorium last time I searched on Google. If thy get kicked out they end up with nice job as Director of some...

    I think that was the window tax back in the UK during the Georgian period. Sunlight, in the UK? When?

    Now about the previous 30 years of misgovernment by the LNP..........I take it you object to the $750 000 000 AFL rort being perpetrated on Tasmania by the Liberal State government?

    That would simply enhance the spread of Covid as people sought to destroy their lung capacity as quickly as possible. Silly idea..............

    Double trouble: Health experts issue warnings about two rapid virus outbreaks happening worldwide

    Ah well, the Covid test worked for both my wife and myself and my son and his wife and his daughter. Not a problem. You can still buy Covid test-kits at Chemists' shop, so they are still being produced. $9.99 ($10) for two such kits.

    Double trouble: Health experts issue warnings about two rapid virus outbreaks happening worldwide

    Sea-salt; beware sea-salt! The ELITES have dumped billions of teeny-weeny microchips in the sea and salt-pans to ensure their control over all of us as we sprinkle sea-salt on our roast beef and potatoes and fish'n'chips! A lot more efficient and cost-effective than distributing and enforcing...

    Double trouble: Health experts issue warnings about two rapid virus outbreaks happening worldwide

    Utter tripe. That's how smallpox was beaten in the UK, back in 1888-89. Compulsory vacination in the UK reduced the incidence of smallpox infections from 3000 per million to 10 per million. That was before both viruses and microchips had been discovered and before either the League of Nations...

    Double trouble: Health experts issue warnings about two rapid virus outbreaks happening worldwide

    Ah Dear Ricky. Since Covid produced symptoms at the outset that resembled closely the common cold and influenza and possibly even malaria, which I have witnessed enough, the simple blood test on sale at chemist's shops enabled one to determine the high probability that one had caught Covid from...

    Prayer of the sensible, thinking person: "Please God, give me patience to put up with Trumpistannian conspiracy theorists and the tolerance to waste my time trying to point out reality lest I reach for my machete. Thank you."

    PS Cheese. My experience is that plastic-wrapped cheddar cheese is best left in a hot dark room for a couple of months after which one extracts the ugly fatty mouldy mess that greets the nose on opening the plastic wrapper and cuts off the unsightly outer coating of horrible stuff to reveal a...

    EXPIRY dates basically tell one when some regulation somewhere ensures that the food will be thrown out by the supermarket. Frozen hamburgers neither breath nor die, despite the alleged note on the sticker that says they carry out expiration at a certain date. As for deep-frozen tucker. There...

    Dammit; which manufacturer? I missed the opportunity! If only the ELITES had told me earlier!

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

    My experience is that malaria is widespread in appropriate tropical climates for the Anopheles mosquito to breed; those are trans-global and as such malaria is "pandemic" as well as endemic . The ECDC put out the alert about the "sloth disease" and no doubt it is a real illness. However...

    Bin there, done that: Posties call out obstructive wheelie bins for mail mayhem

    Here's a thought. Most Pomgolian houses have letter-boxes at about chest height in their front door. Some are near floor level, which is a curse for the postman. A great many Aussie houses don't have letter-box openings cut in their front doors. Do the Australian manufacturers of doors still...
