I have only good things to say about the people at Bunnings, they are always a big help when I (reguarly) get lost in the wrong aisles. Thing is though it's a bit difficult to find a staff member who's not already besieged by others like me. About the changes, I never like to see Staff...
My Westpac Bank closed a couple of years ago. Now the Post Office is closing as well. No way now for me to get withdrawls from the Post Office in my shopping centre. If I want to go to either I have to get a bus up to Chermside. It stinks. I wouldn't believe a damn thing the banks say.
Red meat once was a normal part of people's main meal, maybe if we went back to the old way of farming then we wouldn't have as many issues with it. I'm in my late 70's and have that and chicken and lamb still. Also like ham or salami for sandwiches. So far I'm okay. Just my outlook anyway.

All that happened to me with Centrelink saying I owed them $9,000 after I shifted to a Unit was extremely stressful. I couldn't prove then whether or not I owed them this money, so just paid it, and over nearly 3 years later I am now granted a full pension. During that time they put up my...
I feel sad for these people who've kept their Newspaper alive for so long. My Father was a 'Master Printer' way back, and when he retired installed a printing press under our house, where he would print beautiful Cards etc. (some I think for the Masons of which he was Past Master.) I was so...
