    Sugar, Spice, And Everything Nice: Taste Testing Woolworths’ Limited-Edition Pumpkin Spice Mud Cake

    Neither really appeals to me. I actually baked a cake last week, first one for about 20 years, & it was so good that I might just bake some more.

    Casual dining chains struggle with shifting tastes of customers

    There was a Sizzlers operating in a Perth suburb until a few years ago, I think it was in Osborne Park or Innaloo, but can’t quite remember.

    1970s Cars

    Car parks these days are rather depressing, cars come in such horrible colours, various shades of grey with a bit of beige thrown in. We are upgrading our car next year & it certainly won’t be a dull, horrid colour! I’m thinking red!

    Oh no! Council’s move on bins leaves residents ‘offended’: ‘I thought it was funny’

    It’s really not hard to sort out which stuff goes where & put it in the appropriate bin. Our three bins work very well & we usually only have one small bag of garbage each week.

    Oh no! Council’s move on bins leaves residents ‘offended’: ‘I thought it was funny’

    Launceston council don’t allow recyclable plastic bags either, apparently their machines can’t handle them, so my son suggested I use paper shopping bags and it works a treat. We have a clean bin & the bags get used. My son of course lives in a shire that supplies the plastic bags but alas I don’t.

    Shocking Reason Behind Aussie Woman's Forced Exit from Trendy Pub - What Not to Do!

    No, not really appropriate is it. Poor woman having alopecia. Her “hair” was a bit scary but each to their own. I thought she actually looked okay.

    Probably that strange arrangement on the top of her head.

    Tasmania prepares for potential third major supermarket entrant

    I live in Launceston & we could certainly use a proper shopping centre with more than a supermarket, Reject shop, newsagent & shoe shops. I shop online mostly but have a splurge on our yearly trip to Perth. Tasmania is a beautiful state but our winters are too cold & sometimes summer is a bit...

    Shocking Reason Behind Aussie Woman's Forced Exit from Trendy Pub - What Not to Do!

    The ladies appearance wouldn’t have bothered me at all. I notice a lot of scary looking people when I’m out & they’ve not be asked to leave. It would be a good chance to explain to children that people can look different & still be amazing.

    Here's where to catch a glimpse of King Charles and Queen Consort Camilla on their inaugural visit!

    Now now Veggiepatch, don’t think he’s coming to Perth or Tasmania either. We wouldn’t be able to stand the excitement. 🤣🤣🤣

    Get the 'cool bloke' look for less with Kmart's latest offering!

    Think Kmart Tshirt will stretch out of shape by the first wash. It looks shoddy already doesn’t it?

    Shocking photo ignites fear of Aussie invasion: The looming threat you need to know about NOW!

    I’ll stick to chocolate also in support of your amazing effort with sobriety.

    Shocking photo ignites fear of Aussie invasion: The looming threat you need to know about NOW!

    I didn’t know menopause had its own day! I celebrated over 20 years ago but how are we meant to celebrate today? Eat chocolate & drink wine, think that would suit me just fine.

    Tasmania prepares for potential third major supermarket entrant

    We’re not that badly off in Tassie, while it would be wonderful to have a larger variety of stores we have Post Offices everywhere for our online deliveries! Tasmania isn’t that large that you’re confined to one area, I’m only roughly 2hours from Hobart. Our lack of public transport is a...

    Traumatised grandmother recounts gruelling experience at her local hospital

    Don’t get sick Veggiepatch, you might get swallowed up by a bed in hospital, though I suppose a few of us would organise a rescue.

    Tasmania prepares for potential third major supermarket entrant

    You do get used to it when you live in Tassie but I do find the lack of competition rather frustrating. Another supermarket would be great but I’m not expecting it to happen anytime soon. I think that’s why I’ve turned into an online shopper, along with a lot of others who reside in Tasmania...

    EFTPOS banking issues

    Yes. Trouble is I most likely wouldn’t be organised enough to get cash, too many other things affecting my brain at the moment.
