I have been a Millers and Autograph shopper for many years. Autograph used to be the place I went to for special occasion clothing. Not the case for the last year or so as their quality dropped drastically. Shame, because they had decent designs for many years. Millers was the go for every day...

Just looks like a whole lot of arsing about to me. Each to their own.

You can only do so much ... then give them a boot in the butt. He saved you the trouble. That was an offence to humanity. My oldest was not a butcher, but needed a roadmap to locate the laundry shute. Why do youngsters stink so much without realising it? Anyhow, I solved the smell problem by...

I had a bit of a think about the things that have been revealed, and, the manner in which this was done. In telling his story, he has opened a can of worms for some, but has most likely also opened the eyes of others who may be too afraid to speak out. This was John's life. Not some pitiful...

You would have to be blind if you claim you didn't realise it is a bus lane. In fact, the cataracts have probably gone too far and you should not be driving at all. We don't have bus lanes in Newcastle, except for the one that lets the bus go first at traffic lights. As far as cameras are...

Small but meaningful thing for me. I have been on the search for Advent Calendars that are not laden with chocolates. Early, but I need to get them soon so I can mail them to my 3 super adorable grand-nephews. It's something I have been enjoying for quite some time. First, the Dollar Shops I...

In my day, there was something called death duty. One of a myriad of stupid taxes that have emerged over the years. Here we go again. As far as Super goes, we are well beyond that, and, did not rely on it when hubby became disabled, then I left work to care for him. The only superannuation...

If you ever hear about me going camping, it means I have been kidnapped and held for ransom. I am a 5 star girl. That's why I don't travel. Might happen when the windfall fairy lands. When I was growing up, most of my time was spent rambling around the bush next to our house, and, building...

Well done. I am in the midst of trying to get our Aged Care provider to do a spring clean for us. We just can't move those bulky furniture pieces, or, scale the ladders to clean windows. It sucks when the spirit is willing but the body says Peeee...off.

She is doing this so the kids doesn't scream her head off when mum say NO. At the checkout, it's just a dash to the door. No consideration to others and lazy parenting. I would not give her the time of day.

Well, if the neighbour is not into communicating, then, I would consider a few options. First, an official complaint to council. There are rules concerning privacy. Second, plant a really, really tall tree (skinny pine maybe), so the camera is triggered every time the wind blows and all they...

Safer than the mile high club.

Always behave with honesty and integrity. When you socialise with workmates, remember, you are being watched, so, behave responsibly. Do not judge others too quickly. You may well be judged yourself from time to time. Find one thing that makes you smile, and, one thing for which to be grateful...

All sounds nice, but it comes at a cost. I am in the IGA Xmas club, put aside some dollars every pension, get a bonus from IGA then do all my food shopping in one hit just before Xmas. Even though there would be a price difference, it still works out as a positive for us, and, there is no more...

If there are living relatives, I totally agree they should be asked. I feel that the cemeteries are not doing their job and allow ruination to continue, then worsen year after year. This happens because there is nobody left who can/or will assume the responsibility of upkeep for relatives that...

Simple. If it seems too good to be true, it is most likely a scam. Surely, there is enough word out there for people to stop and think. I don't get it. Must be the desire for quick rewards taking over common sense.

Naaah. Not for me. I gave up trying to un-ring the age bell years ago. Clean, basic moisturiser, no nasty chemicals ... that's it for me.

Here's an even better tip. Clean your fridge more often than once a year. I use a very basic cleaning item called water, and, add a few drops of vanilla. Another good tip is to use fridge liners if one finds it annoying to take the trays out for cleaning. Whichever way it goes, TikTok is behind...

Oooooh . this cleaning guru must be a rocket scientist. Most people I know have been using baking paper for years.
