    Prince Charles delivers the Queen's speech, but one moment made him an internet joke: "They are trolling us"

    Oh ffs!! The chair would be hundreds of years old... part of the historic pomp and ceremony of the whole event, how can he possible be mocked for the bloody chair!!?? And just because he lives in a castle, doesn't mean that he's not aware of life, I'm sure he has plenty of conversations with his...

    REVEALED: Why do some bananas in supermarkets have red wax tips?

    The red dipped is eco-friendly and non-pesticide etc.... I don't think I could taste any difference, but I guess if you want to be more green....then they're the better buy.. but they're a bit dearer.

    Shoppers react to increasing grocery expenses: "This is not normal, it's not fair"

    Oh the price of food has definitely sky-rocketed!! And not only that... but the government dropped the tax on petrol and it went down, now it also has shot higher than before!!! I thought the government said it was going to keep an eye on fuel prices to make sure this saving was passed on...

    Bunnings and other retailers face scrutiny from animal advocates over the continuous sale of glue traps despite numerous petitions to stop them

    Bunnings and other retailers face scrutiny from animal advocates over the continuous sale of glue traps despite numerous petitions to stop them

    Agreed...perhaps the product should come with a little bottle that dissolves the glue, so if you find something in there that shouldn't be, you can quickly release it... and as you said, a responsible person should check the trap to ensure nothing is left suffering.

    Bunnings and other retailers face scrutiny from animal advocates over the continuous sale of glue traps despite numerous petitions to stop them

    I put mine inside the house and ceiling...haven't caught anything except mice and rats.....so I think they need to be sold and only used inside the home to protect from disease carrying pests.

    Man who purchased “dream” Italian house for $1.50 ends up selling the “nightmare” property back to the real estate agency

    I've seen several stories on TV about these "cheap" houses for sale...why do people think they can get a home for $1.50??? Because 'there's a catch!!' .... of course it's to build the population there, and if you have nothing to loose, go buy one....but have good health and some good handyman...

    Top 11 Weight Loss Myths DEBUNKED

    I've been on one 'diet' or another most of my life. We grew up with "you don't leave the table until your plate is empty" (parents that lived through the depression knew that frugal meant survival and nothing should be wasted), but it left me and people like me with eating disorders. Eating to...

    Woman goes to the hospital for a UTI complaint, but the doctors find something else instead…

    I too cannot imagine how it could possibly fit!? Unless she'd stretched it after using the glass (must be a tiny one) for years???. But I've passed kidney stones and they're bloody painful.. I could not comprehend any sexual pleasure out of it!?

    My last shop, going through checkout, I had 3 incorrectly priced items. 1 had not registered the discount and 2 were now not on special any more, but the special price had not been removed from the shelf. The manager fixed them all and we got the discounted prices on all 3 items....although my...

    Mum faces backlash after sharing a video of her 6-month-old daughter eating steak — "Choking hazard!"

    My kids now have kids and they doing the baby-lugini thing.... we used to give them the chicken leg bone (with everything taken off it) to chew with their gums.. it gave them flavour and nothing to choke on as they could hold it while they gummed it. . . But I do worry that people might think...

    What happened to marriage is a joint venture?? Decide to have kids and both put time and energy into raising them.... I know often one puts more in than the other... but being paid by your partner?? Surely you're sharing 50% of his wage while you're off anyway... and you can go back to work...
