@theresek, go to www.ramint.gov.au which is the official website for the Royal Australian Mint. One way or another, they should be able to help you. From what I’ve read elsewhere, I don’t think they’ve been released yet. Good luck!

Love it! Long live the Queen (in our hearts and memories)! It’s great to see that our coinage (notes and stamps) are creative and of (at least) world standards. Proud to be an Aussie!

Very cute! 😍 Reminds me of having Guinea pigs when I was growing up. I had (very creatively named:) Nosy, a male, and Fluffy, an angora female. They had two litters of two each time. The parents had their own cage, separate from the ‘kids’. They were a lot of fun, and I recommend keeping them...

Some things are probably easily able to be likely predictions, such as the popularity of alternatively fuelled motor vehicles, with the advent of electric power, hybrid vehicles and solar power. Obviously methods that are well and truly coming to pass already. The kind of predictions that ‘get...

Fortunately! Very fortunately, I’m so happy to report never having had such an awful experience! However, it is enlightening to discover what CAN happen, and what to do and NOT do if and when such an event occurs. Ugh!

Um, I’ll have to think long and hard about this one! As with most things, it will be challenging to get used to a different approach and to try a different method. Full marks for thinking outside the box though!

Admittedly I used to (in my younger years) drive much closer to the car in front than was wise. These days I take a few precautionary measures, mainly because I’m aware that my reflexes have slowed, so that when a car brakes in front of me, now I need extra moments to react and also brake. Now I...

My take is that the neighbour was probably a bit jealous of her ‘attractive’ or ‘sexy’ neighbour, and possibly embarrassed that she doesn’t entertain her husband to a similar degree. He undoubtedly doesn’t have a problem with a little neighbourly sight-seeing! 🤣 As has been suggested, he...

My belief is a simple one about there being only life on Earth. It’s very simple to me, based on Genesis, chapter 1, where it says that ‘God created the heavens AND THE EARTH’. It was always God’s plan to have a people on Earth worshipping Him. If we believe, everything has a simple explanation.

What the human brain conjures up never ceases to amaze me!!! 😵‍💫 What next???

I know it’s a little bit late this year for Christmas presents, but I might have suddenly found a new use for a power drill! 😂

Excellent point!!! 🤣 The whole idea of urine ‘consumption’ makes me shudder, to say the least. Warning: AO content following: I have yet to understand the fascination, even, with ‘golden showers’. Surely any foray into any such injestion must be considered to be DELIBERATE! I’m pleased the...

If you’ll forgive me, I have some comments to make about what many of us regard as the ‘real meaning of Christmas’. Over the years, I’m sorry to say, we seem to have forgotten or overlooked the ‘real reason for the season’. While many of us have wonderful memories of time shared with family and...

The neighbour needs to get a life! If the resident has a DIY project on, then his neighbours need to be a bit tolerant. He wasn’t operating the drop saw out of hours or breaking any laws. It would be different if he was running a carpentry business out of his home, but this is clearly not the...

Doesn’t it all come down to just one word? There’s even a song, titled: R-E-S-P-E-C-T!!!

As has already been observed, a smile, a ‘g’day’, a ‘how are you?’ or even ‘are you ok?’ doesn’t go astray. If that is the ‘usual’ you, then be ‘you’, and don’t change your behaviour because someone might be offended. We are not responsible for the reaction of others. We can become too sensitive...
