This doesn't surprise me at all. My daughter has received a $450 fine and 3 demerit points because her passenger was wearing her seatbelt was incorrectly. She has been trying to have her adult passenger held responsible for her own actions but the police have told her that as the driver she is...

The Nordic diet given to me by my dietitian when we decided I really needed to lose a reasonable amount of weight for health reasons. On the Nordic diet which I have found extremely easy to stick to I went from 126.5kgs to 65kgs in 22 months. I have maintained my regular weight of 66kgs almost 3...

"Bloody Poms!"

Who didn't know that? A footrest in the shower is essential. REALLY! How else do you manage to shave your legs ladies. If you do it without one you must be an acrobat. My hubby has installed one in every bathroom, in every house we've owned during our 40 years together and believe me that's...

I love ALL those wonderful reminiscent, tear jerker songs but for me it just has to be: I COME FROM A LAND DOWNUNDER. Men At Work

I discovered years ago the trick is not to just put all your veggies in the crisper bin of your fridge. In fact I never had a crisper bin. I always took it out and used the space to put all my vegies in air tight containers. Good old fashioned Tupperware ones with the grates in the bottom are...

What a wonderfully creative woman she is. Obviously also very DIY handy with all that plumbing to put together. Very clever and looks brilliant.

A good friend of mine works at our local Coles. She always works the shift that closes the store at night because it suits her family arrangements. She said there are never any incredibly low priced specials at our Coles because all those fresh every day items are always gone long before closing...

I love Sam Mac and I got ripped off. I bought his book which was a great read for $20 a few months ago. Nevermind! It was worth the 20 bucks.

You've left out the chicken! It's all vegetables cooked in chicken stock!

I agree that a voice memo on your phone is absolutely the quickest and easiest. Why spend all that time taking photos that you've got to delete later. A voice memo takes seconds. All you have to say is:I'm in parking area G20 (or whatever the sign says) Pillar B2. It's also quicker and easier to...

I guess it would be fine if it was on sale in an Adult Sex Shop. A lot of people might enjoy it for a bedroom romp. But on the beach where my grandchildren go for a swim and to build sand castles ABSOLUTELY NOT!

Absolutely disgusting. I wouldn't even go inside let alone eat there. I can't understand ANYBODY sitting and eating in amongst all that rubbish. If the outlet was near to where I lived I would report it to the Health Department.

I agree this method works beautifully. My exhusband who was a chef taught it to me in 1974. It's usually how it's done in large kitchens that cook kilos of rice a day. The only other valuable rice recipe he taught me was that all long grained rice benefits from washing really well before cooking...

Absolutely love it. I can't afford that many great Posca Pens. Wish I could! I store my large assortment in 6 of those clear acrylic makeup carousels you can buy on line. All the pens stand upright within the separate sections and you can just turn the carousel to find the right nib size or...

I think this "wronged" woman is great. In 1978 when I found out that my husband had been unfaithful I threw everything he owned from clothes to cassettes out of the window of our third floor apartment onto the footpath and then got a locksmith to come and change the locks before he got home from...

When I was a kid the suburban street we lived on was dirt. All the kids in our dead end street could be found out there in the dirt every afternoon; playing marbles, jumping rope, drawing and jumping hopscotch grids, playing knuckle bones, sometimes just drawing. If a car came along which wasn't...

My COPD affected lungs very quickly let me know how often people clean their walls. I can get pretty breatless, pretty quickly in some people's houses and you can guarantee it's because they don't clean their walls often enough. Mine get a thorough wash down every 8 weeks and that keeps me healthy.

At least you can use our Aussie "trolley friendly" escalators if you're in a wheelchair and don't want to go all the way to the lift. You certainly can't get a wheelchair on a traditional American style escalator.

My fast food obsessed daughter and son-in-law spent 12 months working in America and they are both adamant that American fast food is all "absolute junk" and that's really saying something especially when I consider they live on junk here at home in Oz.
