thank you for the advice on how to ripen bananas, I however have another way, just buy them from any supermarket and they will be nice and black within a couple of days!! I always buy them when they are green in the vain hope that they will last longer, NO; shop on Friday and by Thursday they...

Please accept my apologies Suzanne rose if my poorly thought out Öff the cuff"remark insulted or hurt you, it was not my intention, like a few other SDC members I was surprised at the amount of children that the young mother in the article had. Large families are not the norm now or often seen...

I am not trying to make light of the loss to her family but I cannot get past 13 children! The article did say she had underlying health conditions but after birthing that many I would be surprised if she didn't have other health issues. it is a tragic loss of life for a woman so young and even...

Thank you for kind thoughts, I have finished the chemo and radiation therapy so at least those horrors are over, I am still under care and will be for a while, staying optomistic is a trial but I am getting by through sheer force of will at the moment🥺

I suppose it could be said that we are lucky not having to make the choice there are no private hospitals where we live only public facilities so we have no need of private hospital cover, saves us the cost, the large public hospital that cares for our region does not have private rooms so again...

HOW rude and ignorant can some of you be, just because you have never heard of the singer/actor/sportsperson does not mean that others in SDC have not and for those of you saying that you only want posts of the passing of Australian people how can you limit the rest of us to your own little...

Thank you to everyone who expressed concern for may safety in regard to my previous message about my selling a large item of furniture via Face Book market place, I might just explain that at the time my husband and I were living in a large regional town where of course every one knew each...

I advertised a large 8 seater couch/ chaise lounge on market place and after deleting the usual stupid comments offering less than half of the price I had advertised it for I communicated with a woman who asked to see it urgently as she was moving into her new home in the next couple of days and...

When our Father passed away my brother and I were faced with the enormous task of clearing what had been our parents happy home, our mother had left this world quite a few years prior to dad so in some way that made the task a little easier, most of her personal things were already gone but we...

If you feel like talking to a friendly voice who may be able to help with you keeping your sanity drop me a message with your phone number or email address, reading from some of your posts I think that we may live in the same area as each other, no pressure it was just a thought :)

SO very sorry to hear of your loss, please remember you are not alone, you can count on the SDC members to support you and help you keep your sanity

And dont forget the $400.00 credit to our electricity accounts being made by the state government this year, thats on top of the $300.00 credit being given to us by the federal government we have solar so I am looking forward to only paying for the supply charge on our electricity account...

Good idea to involve any government MP in dealings with center link that have become impossible to cope with, I have done this and my problem was solved very quickly, A girlfriend who had worked at center link for a number of years told me that they (Center link) lived in fear of getting a call...

Without seeming like I am harping on the same subject, my own mother was exactly the same as the lady I wrote about in my previous entry. No my' mums ignorance did not extend to the same amount of money being in their joint accounts but my father was exactly the same as the first mentioned...

I worked in a call center for one of the big 4 banks for quite a few years and could honestly write a book around some of the calls I answered in that time some were funny some not but one particular call has always stayed in my memory. I answered a call from a customer who had recently lost her...

The first mistake that the daughter made was trusting the bank to do the right thing and take action aligned with the notation that had been made on her mothers account regarding her vulnerability , the bank really could not give a F****, they are not about protecting their customers, they are...

Sorry to express my usual reaction of what ever happened to "Common Sense" when it comes to disposing of normal house hold waste products, how would anyone think that throwing cotton buds and or left over cooking fat/oil into a kitchen sink or even a toilet be the right thing to do. I worry for...

I want more reading glasses as well, a pair for every room in the house would be a great start plus a pair to take out shopping with me, losing my expensive sunnies would be a nightmere for me as they are prescription and needed to enable me to see more than 6 feet in front of me, I am severely...

great idea but not sure that it would work for me, I routinely go looking for my reading glasses when they are already on my head just not on my nose!

All the fear mongering around the Covid vaccines coupled with the fact that the generations of parents that have come after the general vaccines for the more common child hood ailments were routinely administered, meaning the current generations of parents have no real knowledge of how...
