Trying to get the house into a reasonable state as my grand-daughter and her partner are coming out from the UK to house-sit for twelvemonths. While they are here we are off on "The Big Lap" round Australia. Cape Byron, Cape York, The Gulf, Darwin, Broome, Carnaervon, Perth (for Christmas...

Coles Coles are an unexciting store to visit and they are probably trying to cut their costs wherever possible so they reduce the number of staff. (Could I be cynical and suggest the managers and directors will still get paid their bonus's). If staffing is reduced customer care suffers. Two...

Serving an apprenticeship still exists I assume? I joined the Merchant Navy as a cadet in 1953 to accumulate 3 years of actual sea time before I was allowed to sit for a second mate's certificate. Sea time I should imagine is still a pre-requisite before you can sit for your certificate. The...

They are individuals who are part of what used to be known as the Family. They have their own lives to lead and, inspite of all that they are being put through, seem to be managing. It is none of our business what they do. They are a happy couple and have gorgeous children. They are...

Me again. I had solar panels fitted on the roof of our home and paid the invoice when it was presented directly by going the the Bandigo Branch where I live and paying the total as required. The installers kept on at me for quite some time as they maintained I had not paid them. I sent them a...

I use the Bendigo Bank and have no complaints about the services they offer. Some years ago I had a telephone call from them to advise me that there was a claim for $7.98 from an unknown Company and did I know anything about it. I said no and heard no more and there was no debit to my account...

You can't choose. There are ups and downsat every age throughout life whether you are happily married or not. So choose now. You are alive, you got out of bed this morning, you had something to eat, the sun is shining somewhere, you have enough to live on and you have a roof over your head...

What else does he want? He ismobile so he doesn't even have to walk~~

No you are not right. Nowadays it seems that a saying I heard from a Londoner working with me in West Africa some 60 years ago said, "there is no such thing as a bad child ... but the world is overpopulated with bad parents," is more true every day. A generalisation I agree but nevertheless...

What is funny about that? It is peurile and not fit for the Seniors Discount Club.

Where on earth are you coming from? Is your pedestal so high you can't see the ground where life is lived? It is your child which is causing the problem and you should do something about it and not pass the responsibility on to someone else!! Shame on you indeed.
