I loved Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins. It’s amazing that he’s almost 99 & still going. Hope he makes 100.

I’m not making a fuss, I simply prefer to donate to help people who are less fortunate than me, which is why I didn’t want to sell stuff myself. Selling online would’ve been so much easier than loading my car till full several times & visiting various op shops to leave my donations. I’ll...

I’ve recently donated lots of stuff, including books, fabrics and yarn as well as a lot of new clothes with tags still attached, to various Op Shops as I’m still doing my never ending down sizing clean out. I recently became of someone I know buying up books in good condition as well as a lot of...

Maybe Kmart will rush out one of their ”dupes”.

The OnePass shopping event was last weekend, starting & continuing to Sunday. The stores concerned were Priceline, Bunnings, Officeworks, Kmart, Target & Catch as mentioned in the above article. I joined OnePass when it first started & often benefited from free postage & special deals. It has...

I was with internode & my husband was with iiNet but our son, who started off working at iiNet, now TPG, sorted us out with new email addresses that we will never have to change again regardless of who our provider is. Can’t remember who we’re with now but we didn’t bother with The Messaging...

Didn’t realise that you took such a keen interest in ladies shoes Veggie. 😂

I’m amazed that people actually believe in curses!

Years ago before scams were an everyday event I received a call from the ATO informing me that I was about to be arrested for tax fraud. I thanked a rather stunned scammer & explained I was off to pack a bag & head off. I didn’t ever hear from them again. A rather elderly acquaintance received...

Especially as iiNet ceased providing email ages ago along with internode. We found it annoying having to change email addresses everywhere. Scammers should be disposed of. I used to be such a non violent person who was anti death penalty, amazing how I’ve changed. Stay aware & safe.

While I’m not a rugby fan the amount of head knocks & injuries occurring in sports is concerning. My husband, brother and son all follow AFL & the amount of head injuries resulting in concussion is a worry. Concussion is also creeping into cricket. I don’t think any sportsperson is going to live...

Totally does my brain in, especially furries. How can you identify as some kind of animal? Might have to request a reply from Joy.

You are right, I enjoyed Locomotion & Cant get you out of my head but that’s about all. I’m more into 60’s rock which is the era I grew up in. Still loves the Stones who all in their 80’s. Love Classical music these days, especially when I’m driving. Everyone is different so each to their own...

You’re not actually a Kylie fan are you Veggiepatch?

Does that include furries? Can’t get my fried brain around that one.

Me too. Flying doesn’t scare me as I refuse to think about all the things that could go wrong, but it’s so tedious. I dislike having to be confined for hours. Our flight to Perth is direct from Launceston so takes an estimated four & a half hours so not looking forward to it at all. I certainly...

Absolutely, also pack a coat preferably with a hood. Hobart is beautiful as is the view from the mountain provided it’s a clear day. Tasmania is a very scenic taste, apart from the drive from Hobart to Launceston but there are some lovely villages on the way. I hope you have a wonderful trip.

I’ve just spent the afternoon with a very close friend who has dementia. It is totally heartbreaking. We used to have such amazing conversations & I really miss her, she’s still knows me but our chats now are strange, she contributes but heaven knows what she’s talking about. I don’t know how...

My Bosch front loader washing machine developed a problem & when we contacted Harvey Norman to ask when we’d purchased it (husband had filed the receipt?) staff informed us that it was still covered by our extended warranty. We ended up with a brand new, larger capacity washer. We take an...

Same here in Tassie, there is even snow about so you can image those freezing, southerly winds. We’re either very cold or wet and I’m still waiting to be warmer. It will probably still be snowing when we fly west in late November.
