Trouble is with some Providers, they have untrained staff, and some Families have some difficulty in getting onto My Age Care. I have had to help a number of people get Home Help, and also tell others their rights, as some Providers don`t explain everything to the Client, and also...

Same, and its a worry, whether stuck behind or they are coming towards you. On the Bruce Highway, and other roads with only 1 lane each way, and just the odd passing lane is annoying. Especially when on the single lane, they toddle along at about 80klm or even 70. Then speed up...

Sometimes you can`t win. I kept my ex`s surname until I remarried. My ex Inlaws didn`t have a problem with it., neither my ex Husband.

Education at school level about reusing leftovers, freezing same, etc.

The cleaner should have sat down and chatted, perhaps have a cuppa with you.. Thats what we would do. But then we always chat to our Clients when doing domestic duties and were often late getting to the next Client. But then they would get extra time as well, even if it was...

About time that Providers can`t overcharge and rip off the system. Not only NDIS but Age Care.

I have just travelled from Mackay and am now in Coffs. Had plenty of overnight stops on the way. 4-5 hrs max travelling. Qld is way behind in its road upgrades. Bruce H`way, a disgrace, (and having been up to Airlie recently) not good. The ongoing work on the GC area...

You can use that recipe for any stone fruit.

So true. Not trained and it is just a job. I loved working in Age Care, now 75, but retired last year fully, due to having to work with untrained staff who didn`t care, and a Supervisor who would `Look into it`.

It certainly does, and not many people (working in Nursing homes, or community) aren`t trained to deal with people with any kind of Dementia. Some Nursing homes and Community Care Organizations hire untrained staff as they are cheaper. It is going to be a long haul for any Government to...

Instead of using wood for paper bags, Hemp is cheap, doesn`t use excess water, and makes excellent products, Shopping bags, products for house building, list goes on. Why Governments don`t investigate, into using Hemp is beyond me. But then perhaps not. Governments roll to...

So totally agree Drive on the Bruce H`way, and I`m on speed control, and the amount of cars, and 4WD`s that overtake me and they are lost on the Horizon.

You can still use the usual MyGov site on the computer. I put very little on my phone. Easier to lose a phone than a laptop or desktop.

Government IT need to do these changes to justify their jobs.

I am now on my own, and when I buy items like pumpkin, sweet potato, Cauliflower etc, which are more than 1 serving, I bulk cook, then heat in micro when its dinner time. Or sometimes, add to a salad for lunch. A lot cheaper to buy a full vege as above than half or quarter.

You obviously haven`t driven on the Bruce H`way north of Gympie.

This is the problem with so many Providers. Every cost should be explained fully when signing a Person up. But too many Providers a ripping off the system. And it pays to have a Family member with you when a Provider comes to sign you up.

Also have lessons on towing. And when towing, Road courtesy. So many caravaners trundle along at 70-80, then on a passing lane speed up. Then back down to go slow. Especially on the Bruce. Which is very limited in passing lanes, but do have a number of areas for Truck/Car pull offs so...

So true, people who put their kids in the trolley where we put our produce etc, in should be pulled up. there are trolleys where kids sit. Not in the basket part. Ane animals in Supermarkets, Unless its Assistant Dogs, should not be allowed. But then some adults and children, same

QLD, From north Gympie. Roads full of pot holes, not enough passing lanes, and slow drivers speeding up at the few passing lanes, then slowing down, back on single.
