    Flower Girls and Bride

    I was a bridesmaid 50 years ago and can remember the wedding of my friends well. It was in the height of summer and we wore crepe dresses with floral prints and the flower girls wore the colour of the flowers in our dresses in a solid colour.

    Discover Coles' new 'epic' feature that will change your shopping game

    We have a new Coles up the road from me and I am very impressed with the layout and ease of access. Much better for quick , small trips than having to go to the major shopping centre with both supermarkets and Aldi, but if you need to shop around you still need to go to the shopping centre...

    I don't like McDonald's at the best of times, but this is seriously dangerous for people with allergies but for everyone who drinks this.

    Discover 'sneaky tactic' Woolworths uses on online orders that's raising eyebrows

    I pay for the convenience of the stores coming to my door, especially with my litter. I appreciate the delievery men having to carry it up my stairs.

    Recruiter criticises treatment of employees after ‘terrible’ Kmart act: ‘You’re a bad customer’

    I don't like the checkouts in the middle of Kmart stores but I feel for the young people at the door who have to check on customers purchases. If you don't have anything to hide, it won't worry you. I was in Aldi last Friday and a very rude man pushed his trolley into my back as I was going...

    Very sad for the lady and her family and the other passengers. I can attest to the efficient of flight crew when I flew my last flight, I had a medical episode and the flight crew were marvellous. Their training is world class and I am truly sorry to hear this woman couldn't be saved. May she RIP.🙏
