    Mysteriously absent again: Is Princess Catherine okay? Here's what we know!

    Obviously not a lot of loving and forgiving sentiment in this world or indeed in these posts. Camilla is an elderly woman who was always the love of Charles's life. Ridiculous royal protocol insisted he get married, unfortunately not to his real and only love. Camilla has had to bear the stigma...

    World leaders react with surprise and optimism to shocking election outcome

    World leaders react with surprise and optimism to shocking election outcome

    The World is going "far right". Dictators and facists and Trump is just another one. I hope Australia doesn't suck up to him. Malcom Turnbul made the comment that he may not like some of the things we say but he may respect us for not always agreeing with him. I hope one of the first things he...

    World leaders react with surprise and optimism to shocking election outcome

    It was a sad day when the USA chose an incoherent old man over a compassionate coherent woman. Was this a gender choice and are women still second class citizens, I don't know.

    Ask Joy: I think someone I know needs a little help (Part 2).

    We have 1 hours help every fortnight. We pay $11 for this service. I was interested that someone said it was free if you are on a full pension. I have to agree that Australia is stagnating under red tape. Even these senior government services are hard to navigate and understand.

    Police find prisoner after shocking mistaken release

    Was he really a "dangerous" prisoner? I have only read that he had numerous vehicle offences. Also didn't he hand himself in when he saw his picture in the media? Am I reading different news?

    Bankwest customer ‘absolutely gobsmacked’ after 130km cash withdrawal trip ends in failure

    You actually have difficulty speaking to the head office of a bank. I was kept waiting on the other end of the phone for over 2 hours. Finally a real person to talk to after all that time only to be cut off. The banks are closing branches and the few that remain open often have long lines of...

    David Koch explains why younger Aussies have ‘short end of the stick’ in housing market

    I feel sorry for young Australians but David Koch don't think for one minute that we older folks haven't, in our youth, gone through the same hardships. My parents and my husbands parents struggled to make ends meet. We did too in our younger years.

    Coles should give discounts. I bought a Mrs H S Balls chutney in Coles yesterday for over $6 and Aldi will have it in store on Dec 27th for $3.99. Not surprising they are making huge profits from those who are struggling.

    Sounds like a Vegan plot to me. I come from a family of butchers. We have eaten meat all our lives as indeed our ancestors did. Never in excess, but I am80 and my husband 83, who was also a butcher, and we have surprised doctors how healthy we are for our age.
