    Mother's controversial budget washing hack goes viral – see why the internet is outraged!

    The operative word is ‘DISPOSABLE’. Besides, buying these disposable ones is the most expensive part so where is the savings by buying disposables and washing them. Why doesn’t she buy/make the good old-fashioned terry-towelling fabric ones, line them with ‘nappy liners’, dispose of soiled...

    Unlock the Fluffy Pancake Secret that Top Chefs Won't Tell You About!

    Wonder if this gentle mixing (leaving lumps) will also work with the readymade mixes from supermarkets. I use ready-prepared mix when I make pancakes at home and wonder if my ‘flatter’ ones is because I tend to shake the bottle too much to get a smooth batter. Any comments on the readymade mixes...

    First ever TV commercial

    Guess they get their money from advertising the old stuff over and over and over again. I tend to switch off my brain when ads come on.

    Hair-raising videos reveal risky behaviours pedestrians are committing

    Pedestrian closure gates at crossings need to be at least 2 metres high so when they close it is harder to climb over by the daring young. There also need to be fixed 2 metre high & 2 meter wide sections each side onto which these gates close. May not fix the problem for those who dare but at...

    Fridge faux pas: Critics challenge mum's bread and meat storage methods

    If I am correct, ‘cold air sinks, hot air rises’ so we should all be using this method to store things in the fridge keeping yoghurt and milk at the bottom. This person’s fridge shows yoghurt & the like on the top shelf. We have never had anything go off unless (very occasionally) it has been...

    Fridge faux pas: Critics challenge mum's bread and meat storage methods

    She should not be putting plastic wrapped meat on any shelf in her fridge (top or bottom) if it is not placed on a plate to avoid leakage on to ANYTHING below. Full stop - common sense.

    Struggling to swallow could be a sign of this hidden condition - Learn about dysphagia today!

    My dad had this problem quite early in life (in his very early 60s). My husband now in his early 80s is showing signs and is also getting a bit forgetful (just early signs). So it’s good to read this article - thank you; our eldest son is a speech pathologist so might have to be called on soon.

    Safety concerns for Aussie tourists in France amid Olympic festivities: Disturbing attacks raise alarms

    Don’t try to generalise about the origins of those who have committed, and still do, commit crimes here. EVERY SINGLE COUNTRY has that element whether they are born in the country or have emigrated to the country. If the perpetrator happens to be a migrant with no permanency here then it’s back...

    Major supermarkets' packaging claims exposed—what you need to know

    So, my question is: what do we do with soft plastic packaging now? We cannot collect bread packaging & other soft packaging indefinitely in our homes. We have, at the moment, one huge garbage bag full of soft plastic bread packaging which we leave outside the house but this cannot continue...

    Viruses knock Aussies off their feet for weeks! Learn how to avoid the same fate

    It might be time for all unbelievers to voluntarily stay locked up in a 1-bedroom place without air, never to walk outside again just so they do not breathe in contaminated air and never get sick. I offer an big SORRY to all unbelievers; I will continue to take the necessary precautions with...

    Viruses knock Aussies off their feet for weeks! Learn how to avoid the same fate

    It is so nice to hear from a professional - a doctor - who advises us to use masks in hospitals. There are far too many on this site that believe this is all concocted by “theorists” and is all BS. Some have good immunity even without swallowing pills and potions, and others don’t have it. No...
