    When we Sang God Save The Queen

    Thank you Suzanne, for adding to our happy memories of our dear Queen, on this very sad day. It was inevitable, of course, that she would die one day, and yet it seems so unreal that our ‘forever’ Queen is with us no more. How we used to repeat: “long live the Queen” with joy, pride and, as you...

    Riddle: What is the longest word in the English language? Answer: ‘smiles’, where there is a mile between the first and last ‘S’.

    Aussie TV hosts call Harry and Meghan 'D-grade celebrities'; they're said to NOT be welcome in the UK

    Oh, again?!! It’s only this continual attack on people, such as Meghan and Harry, that produces the kind of notariaty that some people seem to crave. If we leave them alone, maybe they’ll go away. Remember: if you haven’t got something nice to say, then don’t open your mouth. Incidentally...

    These 'exotic' roadside snacks are causing controversy online – are you willing to give them a try?

    No, I would not buy a single packet. If some like them, fine. Each to their own. I doubt I would try any of them, even if I was starving and it was the last resort! Bring me a good old hamburger . . . WITH beetroot!!! 😁😋

    Largest pension increase in more than 12 years announced as the cost of living soars

    Promises, promises, promises . . . but ‘when’? is the question!

    Millions of Australians could be fined $11,000 for these everyday items

    Yes, I do think all government bodies right around Australia (and overseas too) should proactively be phasing out and banning the use of plastics. It’s ridiculous to suggest that such bans will be ‘too disruptive’ to businesses and individuals! How ever do you think we managed in the pre-plastic...

    Albanese pushes for Australia to 'ditch' the Queen and become a republic: 'It is inevitable'

    Unfortunately in that regard Suzanne, the way the monarchy works won’t allow that to happen. The only way it could happen that way is if Charles himself abdicates. He cannot be removed. In fairnss to him, he’s waited a long time to take up his birth right. I’d rather, as I guess a lot of others...

    Joke The Lawyer and the Grass-Eaters

    I have heard it before, but it’s no less funny now. I should have known better than to think a lawyer would be so generous as to have all these people share a meal at his dinner table!

    Albanese pushes for Australia to 'ditch' the Queen and become a republic: 'It is inevitable'

    I see no real reason to change to a republic right now, and I certainly do not agree that ‘doing it now means we can do it with pride’! How does that work? Surely we can ‘do it with pride’ whenever we change. Out of respect for the Queen, who has done nothing but serve us as loyal supporters of...

    Karl Stefanovic rightfully slams disgusting Knox School group chat – ‘It’s TOO far!’

    Well done to The Daily Telegraph for uncovering this story. It’s time that this behaviour is called out and named for what it is. Unfortunately many try to get away with this type of behaviour and think that they cannot be held accountable for their actions. It is right that these individuals be...

    September 1…

    September 1… As we used to say on this day when we were kids (you’ll just love the good grammar and rhyming genius): “Spring has sprung, and the grass has ris; I wonder where the birdies is?” 😁

    Karl Stefanovic mocks Meghan Markle's reaction to a fire in Archie's nursery – what did he say?

    Sorry (if I realistically NEED to be!), but I’ve never really related to Karl, in both his demeanor and ‘voice’. On the other hand, I love Ally - she’s a doll, hehe. Note to Channel 9: please replace Karl! Find another Ray Martin, or someone! Almost anyone would be more tolerable and appealing!

    Woolies shopper left confused after receiving lettuce delivery: 'Am I being punked?'

    As far as refunds go, Woolies are very agreeable, and process refunds promptly, apologetically, and without question. When I raise the subject of unacceptable use-by dates (one or two days left to consume the product like quantities of milk), they have been quite willing to refund the value of...

    Scathing letter to neighbour sparks fury online – whose side are you on?

    Sorry to point out, but just because certain words are in common usage, doesn’t make them any less foul and undesirable. An attitude like this simply shows how in general society’s standards are slipping. When I was several years younger, ‘bloody’ was considered rude and offensive, and yes...

    ‘Entitled’ Woolworths customer's brutally honest review of home delivery driver sparks outrage - Is he in the wrong?

    Since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, because of my own limited mobility, I’ve also subscribed to Woolies’ home delivery. I’ve been a loyal Woolies’ customer for many years, and still am, despite having had many issues with them. I think between Woolies Priority Customer Care Line...
