If Megan had not felt the need to announce that her new Netflix would be delayed I would have thought that she was genuine in her concern. However, by making this announement, it made their visit more about her & less about those who were suffering more than I can even imagine.

I am a very careful shopper & check the price marked on the shelf & the price I get charged at checkout. esp for what seem like really good prices. In my local WW they had the 30 egg cartons marked at an excellent price so I put some in my cart. When I got to checkout they were scanned at what...

Do a google search on when metric measurements started here. It was staged over a 17 year period.

We have had decimal currency since 1966 but metric measurements came between 1971 and 1988 with the official change taking place on 1 Jul 1974 when road signs were changed & speed was changed from mph to kph. So, selling by the pound would have been acceptable through this entire period...

They do not move down far enough for them to be comfortable for most women. They might be fine for men who are taller & bigger built (so taking up more of the slack in the seatbelt) & so not create this same problem for them.

All the time. I am constantly having to pull the seatbelt off my neck where it would cause untold harm to my head & neck were I to be in a serious accident. I have checked and, no, I cannot lower it any further from the point of attachment to the car so I have to put up with this dangerous...

Some of them willl charge you for counting your coins!! You could try getting the correct wrappers from the bank & wrap them yourself to save this charge.

Since we have to have bank a/cs to have our pension paid into somewhere, if my bank ever started charging me a fee to withdraw my money or "manage" my a/c then I would have no option other than to withdraw 90% (need to leave some for council rates which are direct debited) each fortnight & use...

This is a ridiculous rule. I look at the indicator on the car ahead of me & then go "Where the hell are you actually going"? Left? Right? Where?

I was recently in a car with a driving inspector & he told the driver at a roundabout that there was no need to indicate as they were going straight through. Work that out!!! I have tried at a large roundabout in Dubbo to see if I could safely change my indicator from right (as I was turning...

Even if it's a live person standing beside your car telling you that "in my opinion you were distracted" it's a biased opinion & not proof of anything. If the cop got out of the wrong side of the bed that morning he will be after anyone for anything he can think of to take our his temper...

How will these "smart" cameras tell the difference between my medi-alert which is worn like a watch & a normal watch? Does this mean that if I look at my watch to check the time I might be "pinged" for so-called distracted driving? Where does this all end? Soon I will be "pinged" for...

Yes they will. People have short memories. I can remember when things were just as bad as they are now under a previous Labor Govt. & they were re-elected.

What a remarkable woman was Agnes Keleti. I was amazed when I read of her exploits during the war & the way she avoided the Nazi round-up of Jews. Then to come back to compete in Olympic gymnastics in her 30s!!! I would have loved to meet & talk with her.

A passport is hardly an essential document for the majority of us. It is only essential if you can afford to travel overseas.

We don't need to invest these millions of $$$s into road safety programmes; we need to invest them into road improvements especially in regional areas. Our roads are very poorly maintained with potholes appearing all the time & often taking weeks to repair & meanwhile causing damage to cars...

If I were invited to a birthday party & told that they wanted cash gifts not normal "gifts" then I would most likely decline to attend. I feel that if they are easking for cash then the amount expected would probably be above my budget but I could buy a nice gift that would fit my budget. As...

Unfortunately these cameras, or the people (? AI) that check them, do not always get it right. I have seen photos where someone got fined for not using a seatbelt & clearly both the driver & passenger had their seatbelts on & correctly positioned. In view of this, I am seriously considering...

If only I could understand all this new technology. I am so lost with it which I didn't think would ever happen to me. Just use cash & then I don't have to know what they are asking me to do.

Prices have risen in local coffee shops & pubs so why should the MCG be any different? Apart from that, I would always take my own snacks & drinks as I would not want to have to join a long line waiting for food or drink & missing out on watching the cricket.
