I was subscribed Somac by my doctor but only to be used when needed. I am glad to have read this article. Any tablets left at this stage I must check if they have expired as I only use Gaviscon now if necessary. Eating late at night is one of the causes of indigestion

When we first applied some years ago for the age pension we were asked that question. How much money do you have in your purse and I said a hundred dollars as that was for housekeeping.

This is ridiculous!!!! There are identical twins who even their own family find it hard to recognise them individually. I had two sons who looked very much alike and they also had cousins that were very much alike as they had the same grandfather and looked very much like him.

We are ok on the pension because we did not live the high life. I had no super and my husbands super only started when it was compulsory. We own our home so that is a big saving. I feel for those renting especially the single ones. since retiring we have had holidays but did not have while...

I have had that happen. I was unable to turn off the computer so unplugged everything while I thought what I could do. My virus checker did not operate. I tried all sorts of ways to shut down to no avail but after a while it appeared to be gone. I decided to leave it for some time and then...

Thanks for your reply but when I did ask my doctor he told me to go online and contact Aged care which is what I did and it was quite complicated so I rang them but they said I already had a cleaning option but had not taken it up so after I have just given up

I too have had problems with this . When I left hospital in 2022 after having stents put in I was advised to have the aged care help. I was contacted and at the time my husband was able to help so we denied the help from the Government. This year I have not been as well as I usually am so have...

This is only the heating bills but there are other bills to be paid

Surely by just answering a call will not give you a virus or trojan. It is when you act upon something surely. I answer my phone with a backward motion as it is partly behind my chair when sitting. I cannot see the number this way. When I find it to be a possibl e scam I just hang up.

WE here in WA always have a spike on WEdnesday well over $2 every week usually $2.19 or even more so this is nothing new to us it goes down every day and usually 10c the first day and so on. This is price gouging at a premium but the Government do nothing about this. We do have Fuel watch which...

You do not lose your pension entirely. I cannot remember what the time is but we were on a world cruise and after a certain number of days you lose the utiliities only. Onviously you do not need them but they are reinstated when you return to Australia. They know when you return n need to advise...

Well surprise surprise My neighbour just came over with a parcel.... wrongly delivered and it was from telstra with a new phone. So they do deliver. Thanks to Telstra

I do not have money to splash around for something I rarely use

Everyone who contracts this insidious disease goes through these problems not just well known people. I have known people for over year 70 years that have had cancer and still there has not been more remedies found.

There is no guarantee you will get a replacement phone. I contacted Telstra because I do not use my phone for internet and only need one for phone calls if I am out alone and something happens I am elderly but although I contacted Telstra I have not heard anymore .

Are we breeding a lot of careless fools what with all these accidents?

I agree with REe as I have the same problem as does my sister. SHe had an accident some years ago and still has the marks on her neck where the seatbelt almost strangled her. She was wearing the seat belt correctly. They need to be adjustable on the car frame

We made these paper type blocks when we had a wood fire so economical we probably still have the block frame up the shed it was made of metal

I sometimes buy designs from a New Zealand company and pay with Paypal in Australian dollars but when I get the bank statement the bank has charged me an international transaction fee as it shows I was buying from an overseas company. It cannot be an exchange of currency and both the seller and...
