So instead of being able to pop in to the pharmacy to get prescriptions quickly filled & on your way we will soon have to wait for long periods for this service. I am definitely not in favour of our chemists trying to become our doctors. Doctors spend many more years training for their...

It was the same in the 1950s when I got my licence to ride my motor scooter. There was no requirement of a number of hours on "L" plates or anything else. Know the road rules & ride that short distance while someone stood on the footpath & watched you.

Never heard of him so can't have been much of a legend,

I don't think the changes will have a lot of effect on deliberate overdoses as someone can easily obtain a large supply just by shopping around.

I knew this was coming so I have been stockpiling a large supply so that I don't have to deal with this nonsense for quite some time. I need to take Panadol on a regular basis for my arthritis & the thought of having to drive a long way to replenish my supply (added cost of petrol to do so)...

No. I will not spend more doing the job the govt is supposed to do i.e. building power stations to provide reliable electricity to everyone at a reasonable cost. Now they want us to "build the power stations" on our rooftops & pay a pittance for the electricity which we add to the grid. With...

It's about time the NDIS had more checks & balances on it. Way too many people have accessed this programme with little if any follow up over the years to see that they still need this assistance from the rest of us. There appears to be little need for participants to prove that they need some...

I am a dog lover with 2 small dogs which love to go out in the car. However, if I intend going to my local cafe for a coffee then they either stay at home or we sit in the outdoor area where they are away from other customers. The only problem with this is, if I am on my own, there is no way I...

Just what I was going to say. Nothing new here, If I use an ATM - any ATM - I always cover my hand so that if there is a hidden camera checking my action it cannot read my PIN.

NO! NOO! NOOOOO! Leave the idiot in America where stupid people heard him say what he intended to do but either were not "listening" or chose to ignore & now they are sorry they voted for him. Four years of disaster coming for USA (quite probably a lot more than 4 years as he intends to be a...

We do not need to do the same in Australia. This sort of behaviour from senior "polliticians" is my main reason for voting against Australia becoming a republic. Our form of govt has worked well for hundreds of years & really does not need to be changed.

Why, oh why, do you make us read all the way to the end to find out the name of the person referred to in your headlines. I am becoming so fed up with this way of presenting news to us that I am seriously considering leaving.

Please explain how this sign is deceptive. It is quite clear to my mind. You have to pay $12 to take your vehicle onto the beach. Simple. It could only appear deceptive to the semi-literate younger generation who have difficulty reading anything if it is not accompanied by pictures.

I don't consider this an excessive increase in the fee to access the beach with your very heavy 4-wheel drive vehicle. The council has to maintain the access route, the beach which is ripped up by people roaring along with heavy vehicles & quite possibly an additional insurance to cover them if...

Like many new businesses, this one lasted less than 4 years before closing down. Apart from that, I've never heard of them so the store was probably located in one or 2 suburbs in a city only. Really not worthy of the headline of SDC.

I can remember loving fairy bread as a treat as a child (still love it). I love a sausage sangga with lots of tomato sauce. The thought of mixing these 2 "classic" Aussie treats just boggles my mind & I think it deserves a great big "NO THANKS".

That was my immediate reaction also. If I didn't know someone was pre-booked to come to my home to do work, then there is no way known to man they would get inside the door. Apart from that, what cleaning company would send 3 men to clean a house? They are the most useless things on 2 legs...

The lack of nurses in our hospitals is the fault of the govt in my opinion. When nurses were hospital trained we had nurses of all levels of training working on the wards from 1st year nurses through to registered nurses. Now we only have registered nurses so the numbers available to staff the...

The NDIS is the most disastrous thing this govt has ever done. It rips off the community in every way possible. People on this programme get everything they ask for without recourse to checks by occupational therapists, physiotherapists or any other professional to see if it is actually...

I wouldx be very concerned having all that personal information stored along with my photo. It's rather pointless to say that the photo is converted to numerical codes so that I can feel safe with the storage. If they can convert it to these codes, then they can convert them back to pictures &...
