    Shocking downside of new Australian parking systems that could affect you!

    Can someone advise me when it became compulsory to have a modern mobile with 273 + apts.. and who is going to buy me one each time they either shut the network or make your mobile redundant. Sounds like someone, I don't even know, is reaching into my piggy=bank and taking money from me because...

    City council considers reverting Australia Day ceremonies amid community debate

    The 26th January is Aust. Day, full stop. It is the 'noise-makers' with tin cans and a spoon who go around looking for something to change. It is the same with the Aust. Flag. It is the 'Aust. Flag', for all Australians no matter their colour, race or creed. We lost a lot of good, brave Aust...

    Are you living in a danger zone? Data exposes most reckless driving hotspots in this city

    The comments from 'Veggiepatch' are very worrying. If you don't want to do anything about it, you have no right to complain. Think of this, he is a serious offender of the NSW road rules. The company that has provided him with a car and have knowledge of his driving status is criminally liable...

    Health experts warn about 'deadly' pill disguised as painkillers

    How do these drugs get into this Country, is Border Force, Customs and other responsible Government agencies asleep. I know Consumer Affairs are asleep, I've had a number of interactions with that deparment. They keep issuing warnings, not fines or legal actions, the offenders just keep on doing...

    I would like this study to be done here in NSW, the stats would shake you up a bit.. My son is in the Vict. Police Force, 8 months after being sworn in he was present at his first 'car crushing.'

    Residents up in arms over audacious act on $200,000 BMW—see why!

    Many years ago we were driving along the parking lanes in a Westfield shopping centre on the lower North Shore doing a number plate check using the side mounted cameras on our Police vehicle. We saw a male 'leaning' over the bonnet of a brand new Toyota Landcruiser. From his position my partner...

    Petrol prices set to increase over the weekend in major areas

    Wrote to the NRMA when this 'cycle' rubbish started, they wouldn't put my letter in their magazine and still waiting for an explanation... so much for being for the motorist. The price of petrol is defined by the census..if you are a 'average wage earner living in a relatively large area of...

    And last night on the tele was Bill Shorten promoting another Gov. electronic gizzmo he is introducing to go onto your phone for proof of ID. With all the scams, stalking, sexual harrassment, bullying, and rip-offs happening with all this 'electronic garbage' the 'so-called whiz kids and...

I don't give out my mobile number to just anybody and haven't received any scam calls on the mobile. Did you...

    Pensioners to get cash boost in upcoming July indexation

    I wonder where all this 'cost of living hand-out money is coming from', and how do we balance the budget when it all stops. It doesn't help, it only goes to show how poorly our pollies perform in running this Country. Whatever party is elected at the next election is going to inherit a HUGE...

    Pensioners to get cash boost in upcoming July indexation

    I wonder how many pensioners voted Albo and his 'dumb bunnies' into Government. I said it before and I will say it again... I don't care who you vote for however, the Libs. and Labor are the two major parties, on many occasions these parties have had to make 'deals/concessions with the minor...

    Mum's shocking photo of ALDI mince will make you think twice before buying

    'When in doubt, DON'T throw it out,' if you are sure it is 'sus', TAKE IT BACK. The store won't know about bad products unless you show them. They can then check their suppliers, you get your money back, or a freebie. Don't just accept this type of behaviour, stand up and complain. Since Covid...

    THE KID IS AHEAD

    Far too bright to be a Prime Minister, he should be a major Bank CEO, where all the clever decisions are made, or head of the Weather forecasters, who always get it right....lol

    Teen’s knife incident sparks urgent call for public safety measures in shopping centres

    We have Governments that are lazy, have forgotten their role, inept to making positive policy to benefit society and the people they are there to represent. We cater to minority groups to the detriment of the majority. The Legal system is breaking down due to the attitudes of the people who...

    The Samurai

    The Samurai What a great show, came on at 4.30pm, raced home from school, completed my homework so I could watch the show. The fantastic jumps and stunts those Ninjas' performed were great to watch. The popularity of the show saw Shintaro come to Australia and there were large crowds of kids...

    Viagra

    When growing up one of my favourite biscuits were the Arnotts ginger nut, when the company was still Australian. They were as hard as a brick and the best way of eating them was to lay them on top of a glass of milk, they would float and as the milk was absorbed they would sink a little deeper...

    Whispers in the aisles: Alleged employee turmoil at Woolworths

    The only thing that has come out of 'inquiry into Woolies/Coles' so far is the stupid and incompetent ministers asking the questions. That Greens Senator is a prime example of a person who is out of his depth when he tries to ask a question that he doesn't even understand or can explain. No...
