    Man hit with outrageous $132 fine for parking on his OWN property – you won't believe the public's reaction!

    The home owner pays to concrete right to the road but that is the home owners choice, so that it looks nicer, but the council have to approve it first. That, however, doesn’t give the homeowner the right to break the law and park across the public walkway.

    Man hit with outrageous $132 fine for parking on his OWN property – you won't believe the public's reaction!

    Sorry, but this person was NOT parked on “their own driveway”, they were parked across a public walkway. A measly $132.00 fine is not enough for this imbecile! And, just as an added point, parking on the street across your own driveway is also illegal. Just saying…! (Oh, and so is street parking...

    'You f***head!': Neighbour's shocking note to grieving mum enrages people

    The neighbour behind us complained about the same thing. My response to him was, “I do the best I can to stop my dogs from barking, but, at the end of the day, they are DOGS not humans. And under Australian laws we are not permitted to have them surgically debarked, nor am I permitted to belt...

    'Sooky' parking note sets off chaos among drivers: 'Not my fault you can't drive'

    As a resident living very close to the local primary school I 100% sympathise with this person. Every afternoon we suffer the same problem with parents parking way too close to (or even across) our driveway. I run my own lawn mowing business and normally get home between 2:30 and 3:00pm, so...

    Foliage fiasco: Retiree roots for justice against council's hefty fine!

    What a joke! The council expect us to mow and tend to the council owned nature strip outside our houses (for free). In our street (in the Penrith Council area of NSW) we don’t even get a weekly street sweeper truck, we have to maintain that ourselves too, (again, for free)! I say it’s about time...

    Homeowners often feel better about life than renters, but not always – whether you are mortgaged matters

    Well, of course paying off a home is just as difficult as paying rent, however when your mortgage is paid off you own it and no longer need to come up with the money, especially in retirement. What do renters do when they retire? Still pay rent?? With what??? Their pension or superannuation...

    ‘Brekkie’ prompts American podcasters’ apology to ‘all of Australia’ after backlash

    And I’ve had it with foreigners objecting to the way we speak. Each country has its own lingo and slang. If you don’t like ours, then “PEA ONE DOLLAR-SIGN DOLLAR-SIGN OFF” 🖕🏼

    Controversial driving move by ute driver divides opinion

    I agree 100% with Mr Hore. The Ute driver displayed nothing but impatience and utter disregard for his, the cyclists and the other motorists safety. I also agree that narrow roads that do not have a designated cyclist or breakdown lane should not be allowed for use by cyclists (as a matter of...
