    They were actually talking about that on the radio this morning. We got flashed one day last week and we thought speed camera but it was a nasty accident. I wonder if it’s still illegal to flash for that.

    Man's audacious stunt in front of speed camera ignites fierce debate!

    Only a couple of hours ago I noticed a sign on one of the quieter streets in town saying “Speed camera ahead” . It was behind a chain fence at one of the businesses. It’s a known spot for a speed camera but I can’t say it’s doing any harm to give everyone a reminder.

    The Top Supermarket Snacks Finally Revealed by a Dietitian – You'll Never Guess Number One!

    I hate nuts, I hate yogurt, I’m fussy about my protein bars, I wouldn’t eat pumpkin seeds. So I guess my shopping basket would be a big fail.

    Aussies concerned about unusual 'mystery packages' flooding mailboxes

    When I got the random stuff it wasn’t an inconvenience, it was quite amusing. I shop on line all the time. I find I hate walking round the shops any more. I used to enjoy it but now shopping on line is quicker so now i enjoy doing other things with the time I save

    Deadly infections revealed to be skyrocketing globally, posing risks beyond the common cold

    If the majority of the western world has been immunised against TB, I know I was as a teenager, then would this only affect the population of people not immunised? We all had to have a chest xray before we were approved to emigrate to Australia so legal people entering should have all been...

    Shopper calls out Coles staff for doing nothing to stop alarming act in store: ‘Why wouldn’t they?!’

    I wonder if the staff and security guards are allowed to ban these kids from the shop as they are known repeat offenders. Maybe they could have a policy that no children under the age of 16 are allowed in the store unless accompanied by an adult. It’s wrong that legitimate child shoppers are...
