    Australia tightens drinking water guidelines amid ‘forever chemicals’ contamination concerns

    Veggiepatch that reminds me of one of our earlier visits to Perth when we went on a few tours to see the area. During one trip we were all chatting about where we lived & one man, on hearing we were Tasmanian, approached us & asked,“you all have 2 heads down there don’t you?” I replied “only...

    Olympic Legend Sir Chris Hoy's Terminal Diagnosis Highlights Crucial Prostate Cancer Signs

    I’m glad Novezar & Magpie that you’re both doing okay & good luck to both of you going forward. I think males need to be educated and aware from a much younger age, my husband has kept our son, who is his early 40’s, informed of the various problems that older men encounter including his own...

    Woolworths outage leaves shoppers in a pickle: Online orders go sour

    You really have to use home delivery don’t you. I think that we should all do whatever it takes to keep going & not be concerned about what others do, would be a much better world in my book. Sorry to hear that you have no one to help when you’re not well, wish I lived close by but I don’t...

    Australia tightens drinking water guidelines amid ‘forever chemicals’ contamination concerns

    Perth tap water causes my severe stomach aches & my friend who grew up & lived in Perth for 60 years told me that she always had tummy troubles caused by the water. I won’t even use it to wash vegetables etc.

    Aussie senator's controversial post about King Charles sends shockwaves through social media

    Does the PM actually have the power to sack people from Parliament when they don’t belong to his own party? She was elected on the Greens ticket & is now independent so I very much doubt it. I’m sure Veggie will know.

    Australia tightens drinking water guidelines amid ‘forever chemicals’ contamination concerns

    I’ll be in Perth soon so it will be bottled water for me. I can’t even stand the smell. Maybe I’ll send the government a bill for the expense of buying water for my 6 week stay.

    Australia tightens drinking water guidelines amid ‘forever chemicals’ contamination concerns

    I drink a lot of water & use a Brita filter also. Launceston has clean water but at times they add way too much Chlorine. Maybe we should get one of those systems on the tap or wherever you put them.

    Five Shocking Kitchen Design Mistakes Even Architects Avoid – Are You Making Them Too?

    Good for you Michelle Sc, I’m glad that you got exactly what you wanted. So many builders & “experts“ have no idea as to what actually works for real people. Walk in pantries are so good, my last house had one, at my insistence, but we didn’t build the house we now live in and I really miss it...

    This is so sad Gaena, I actually feel sorry for your in-laws for not realising the relationship they could have had which you & their son. I really don’t understand mean, vindictive people. My husband & I have been very fortunate, my parents took to my man instantly & my mum in law was very...

    Aussies caught in a scam trap as unqualified ‘locksmiths’ pick pockets instead of locks

    Locksmiths have been doing keyed alike locks for a very long time. We had this done when we built our first house back in 1974, I think they change the inside of the lock & make them all the same. I couldn’t stand having a different key for every door that has a lock. We live in a small city &...
