I do not forget my bags in the car... that is were they reside...I go to the car with the trolley, split groceries in the bags as I need. When emptied at home, being in my way they go back to the car boot... I do not understand people who "forget"their bags in the car, because first of all I...

It is a fact of life... plenty of us live alone... trying to pretend otherwise is not helping anyone... btw alone does not mean lonely, for quite a few of us it means independence and friends/family around

however if you need to renew as I did a few years ago, go for a small one they are perfect (mine a 0.5 l Bodum...a gem)

I also have already replied to Jest, I think is comment is bizarre, thoughtless...btw I managed to source a few years ago a Bodum kettle 0.5 l and love it... from my 82 years and luckily, to this point healthy

Are you living on your own... plenty of us are... I own a 0.5 l Bodum kettle, could not see the point of buying a kettle for a big family... yes I had to earlier, putting a small amount of water at the bottom...annoying to have a big heavy cumbersome object... we are not all suckers for big is...

yes for a long time now I own a 0.5 litre Bodum kettle... a gem

Years ago was able to finally locate, in Oxford Street, a 0.5 litre Bodum kettle that fits perfectly in the small cupboard where I have my tea stuff handy... was so annoyed before with the huge kettle taking space on the board underneath. Yes some of us dont need to buy big either in appliances...

I tried Aldi as soon as they arrived in Sydney being sick and tired of the ColesWorth duopoly... Only once did i utter "I dont expect that from a German company" and the matter was quickly resolved... I also shop at Coles, Woolworth and IGA depending on where I am at a particular time...but the...

Australians have a problem with freedom of choice, it is ok to choose to speed and kill people, but heaven forbids if you mention they have no so called freedom of choice when it comes to go to vote which is compulsory... I would prefer the so called freedom of choice to be reversed. I currently...

Another cultural shock from a Parisian Arriving in Australia from Paris (where your laundry was picked up at your door and delivered back freshly ironed within 48h max), we rented a flat in a brand new building and was shown, to my shock and horror, a "gas copper" in the laundry (first and...

I love a cashless society, what happened at Macca's happened to me numerous time in Australia in the last 60years... once I even tried unsuccessfully to return a $50.-note when expecting a $5.-note at a chemist in the city!!! the cash register was shared with other assistants and the one I...

To the many Aussies who come back from France telling me... but the people were really nice... I reply : I know you, you were polite and they responded in kind (contrary to those who "bark" at us in English, louder and louder ... most of us are not deaf:ROFLMAO:)

Being French I'll have to refrain to make a comment on that Australian weirdo :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:, However when in Japan, asking direction for a "Big Buddha"in Kamakura I received blank looks, was ignored... Decided to put my brains into gear and remembered they call it Daibutsu...

I am glad you got it... how could anyone see Jesus in there baffles me:D

The so called Last Supper was Greek bacchanals and Dyonisus- (this one I find difficult that they took him for Jesus in the Last Supper , to be honest)- , the horse on the Seine was not apocalyptic but the representation of the goddess Sequana which gave its name to the river,,, Understandable...
