I have never bought a bag at any supermarket. They have always been priced in with the cost of products & are just another way supermarkets make exorbitant profits. When they said they were stopping free bags & we would have to purchase bags from them, I went into action & made a stack of bags...

While I agree that the price is exorbitant, I did a quick think about what else they have to cover. They need to cover themselves for business insurance, sickness time, holidays, worker's comp insurance, superannuation. These costs are all borne by the employer for most people but for those...

Thankfully I am not your mum. Please do not address me as such.

If you are referring to the Govt Home Care programme, you will get a sh*t job from them. They are not allowed to move anything - dining room chairs from around the table to enable vacuuming under the table, a column heater on wheels, behind the doors, dirty laundry basket in bedroom. I had a...

There is no collecting of firewood in National Parks near me. You can buy it in the closest town from people who have collected it legally - usually from their property or friends' properties.

I guess you do not live in any of the affected areas. Wild pigs around here are extremely common. Mozzies are not too bad at the moment but any more rain & that could change quickly. If you don't care if you get this dreadful disease from mozzies then that's your choice; but please don't...

Because I know about the mozzies & heartworm, that is why I wondered about this disease - IF it is transmitted by mozzies. I understand that it is a big IF at the moment but I think it is better to over-protect my 4-legged babies if there is even a possibility that they will find the...

I'm concerned that this disease, if carried by mozzies, could it also be transferred to domestic animals? Is there any recorded incidents of this happening? If so, where & to which animals.

My neighbour regularly leave their trailer parked across the footpath. Meanwhile they consider themselves the police of the street & report anyone else who they consider does the wrong thing.

or a kangaroo. While they do move, they generally find a way to move in front of a moving vehicle & that would almost certainly mean death to this crazy bike rider.

I also had them as a child. Most adults & all children should now have been vaccinated against this virus which would make them immune to the disease. This is the reason compulsory vaccination of ALL children should be mandated by law. It is ridiculous that some parents can choose not to...

I'm not panicking. I had measles as a very young child so I'm immune. Plus, if you have been vaccinated you are protected. It's only those who have refused to be vaccinated or have their children vaccinated that have to worry. As I said before, it's only the anti-vaxers who need to be worried.

If your child is vaccinated then you don't have to worry about it. It is only the anti-vaxers who have to worry when any virus is brought into the country by overseas travellers.

To the best of my knowledge she was not walking through an x-ray machine - she would have walked through a scanner which searches for metal objects on the body. I wonder why she felt any need to tell the staff that she had an ileostomy bag unless she was trying to draw attention to herself.

I used to shop at Miller's a lot but the quality went downhill in recent years & the sizing of goods was "all over the shop". The same with Katies. I tried a jacket on in Katies last year & the shop assistant had no idea what sizing actually meant. I am a size 16 & I tried on a size 22 which...

You get what you pay for in quality of material & service. What did you expect for $9?

Why do I have to read nearly half this article to find out what the disease is? This whole article is just plain SCAREMONGERING. The death rate from this virus is as low as 0.1% worldwide i.e. 1 in 1000. Not something to press panic buttons about.

I totally agree. Why buy a vehicle (boat, caravan etc) if you don't have enough room to store it on your own property? It is not the responsibility of the local council to provide space for you to park your extra vehicles.

Never heard of him.

I'm wondering what size is your FOGO bin? My food scraps for a week fit in an ice cream container which is then emptied into my compost bin.
