    This photo from a popular beach has sparked serious debate—what do you think?

    A cat should be able to go where a dog does. As per dog rules, it should be on a leash and you should be picking up it's poo as well. Just take doggy bags (maybe we need to rename them) with you. A cat will at least dig a hole and bury it after while a dog will leave it for us to tread in.

    Doctors dismissed my mole twice, but what happened next will shock you – My true story of misdiagnosis and a fight for survival!

    I was sunburnt so badly when I was about 9 (I fell asleep under and umbrella) that my Grandmother cracked an egg on my back and the albumen turned white. From that day I wouldn't go out in the sun and always wore long sleeve tops and pants. I spoke to my doctor about 10 years ago about a freckle...

    Fake cleaners turn hostage-takers in shocking home invasion—are you safe?

    Many years ago I had someone try to kick my door down as well as yelling at me. Luckily it had a security bolt so there was no way he could get in. Found out the guy was drunk and thought he was at his own door. I actually hid under my table until my friend and her son turned up to get me.

    Local beachgoers face warmer summer days after this 'ridiculous' ban!

    The council just don't like the fact they aren't earning any money from the business themselves.

    Vital Channel Seven crew member passes away at home

    It's such a shame that so many of us have these suicidal thoughts but I feel for the friends and family who are left behind. It's hard to ask for help and many fall through the cracks.

    ATO and myGov's latest alert reminds you to protect your money and data. Here's what's going on

    I'd never heard of Quishing before. The only QR codes I use are the ones I've already installed. Why can't those pests go out and earn money legally like everyone else does. I wish that someone was able to scam them and see how they like it.

    I'm happy to say I haven't seen these beetles in my yard up till now at least. Hopefully it stays that way

    How do you spoil yourself without feeling guilty?

    Happy Birthday for last week. I always feel guilty if I buy anything for myself even just going out for a coffee. I know that we deserve to spoil ourselves once in a while but I do feel guilty even having a sit down coffee at the local cafe.

    This woman faces shocking penalties in the middle of her flight! What happened?

    Nothing like this but passengers have become unruly and swearing but not to such an extent. I believe alcohol should not be provided on aircraft and that would stop a lot of hassles for the crew and passengers. This woman should be banned from flying and made to apologise to the staff.

    Latest poll results shock voters: See who's leading in the upcoming election!

    It's what I would have expected. I lost a lot of faith in Albanese. Things seem to have gone downhill since he took over for labour.

    New technology set to revolutionise road safety: 'These things are game changers'

    I've not had any interactions with these cameras but I live in a small country town. I do think they will help to cut down on traffic accidents if people will just take care when driving. I would never use my phone while driving and I couldn't stand the constant beeping from my car if I didn't...

    Crazy reason why this social media personality was slapped with $1,033 fine!

    OMG What would have happened if he'd hit something (not a person) and the stove had tipped. His car could have caught on fire and we may not have him around anymore.

    Critics blast the Duke and Duchess of Sussex for their appearances amid ongoing crisis

    The only thing I find insensitive about their visit is Megan's mention of the show she has postponed. That sounded more like she was trying to get publicity for herself. Other than that, at least they did show up to give their support.

    How much have you been paying for groceries lately? See how this receipt exposes a staggering price surge

    Everything goes up in price but I've noticed that pay rises don't keep up with inflation.

    Is your supermarket locking your goods away? Here's the reason behind the strange security measure

    The only items I've ever known to be locked away were CD's, DVD's and records. The sleeves are on display but the items themselves are only placed in the sleeve once you buy it. Having washing powder under lock and key seems very strange to me

    Is your 'organic' food really organic? Shoppers are being misled—here’s what you need to know

    I don't buy organic items but I do feel for those companies who are doing the right thing. I know it costs more to run organic farms so their prices are higher but others are saying they're organic farms but not having to pay out for the proper equipment are making a lot more profit for themselves.

    This massive change by popular budget retailer could impact your wallet—find out how!

    I will not buy products from Temu because it's not Australian owned or made. These items would be made to Chinese standards not Australian standards and this money goes overseas so is no benefit to Australia. May be cheap but their sizing is also smaller than ours.

    If they have worked and earned the right to have the pension then they should be allowed to spend it how they want. Not everyone has children and you can't discriminate over who has or hasn't any children.
