In times of difficulty remember there is always someone worse off than you. I live alone, do not drive, have no public transport near me and don't see humans for up to 3 weeks at a time, have no family and no friends - those I had have died, gone into homes with Parkinsons etc. or moved miles...

If in doubt over a call, at least DO NOT press any buttons or keys on phone or computer - then hang up and if still in doubt phone the place the call is SUPPOSED to have come from and see if it is from them or not!

I was recently charged $11.29 card fee by a company who put in smoke alarms when I paid their bill over the phone with my card. This is the highest fee I have yet had to pay and tops the ATO's charge for the same thing of $10.39!!! What is going on here! When cash goes I hate to think what we...

I am in my eighties and Telstra supply my landline and computer link. Have a mobile with TPG which I think will go soon. Need help here! Have been told my computer and landline are o.k. so hope this is correct.

Have been told by Telstra that my computer, landline phone and copier are o.k. so hope this is correct. My mobile with TPG however will go. Hope this is correct as I am not tech savvy and could end up in big trouble. At a time when I am trying to sell my home and move do not need this...

Have not kept receipts but shop there, Woollies, all the time so have been ripped off like everyone else. They are not the fresh food people either - the carrots often have more winkles than I have!!

I avoid social media, dating sites etc. like the plague! Nothing like meeting a man the old fashioned way - there in front of you! One can tell a lot by just looking at them!

Too much to spend but the govt. wastes so much of our money, what the heck! My pet love is animal welfare so would rather see the money go to the animal charities who are struggling. So many people are dumping their pets as costs rise - couldn't do it myself no matter what! Any fur babies that...

Nurses are not under pressure! During my last stay in hospital one man, a nurse I later discovered, walked around all the time, hands in pockets and appeared to be handing out financial advice. I asked if he was a financial advisor and was informed he was a male nurse. The only thing he did...

Bring back the lash - this will improve the crime rate no end! Some of these little monsters that belt up old people, mistreat animals, steal etc. have records the length of Queen Street. Wake up govt. - go back to the good old days before it's too late!!

I only give money to animal charities - animals are always thankful for the help and do not smoke!

How about Brad Pitt, Sean Connery?

In time Harry will realise the mistake he made in marrying this social climber. Will he be taken back into the fold or live with the error for all time? Who knows! He has lost a great deal - his country up to a point, his brother, his royal status - whatever happens I wish him the very best as...

The govt. should step in here and make clear and reasonable rules concerning these villages. People in many cases do not understand that one does not buy the land, only the dwelling. The contracts are unclear and hard to understand, especially for the old. Going into one of these places, is...

I would like to point out a new kind of theft. I recently used my visa card to pay a bill over the phone and was charged $11.29 as a card fee. The Company concerned was Smoke Alarm Services. I rang the ACCC and the Office of Fair Trading and passed on their name! Do not know if this will do any...

Whenever I want a doctor's appointment, he is either booked out or on holidays. Most times if I only want a script, I cut my tablets in half to make them last until I can see him. However I once had a UTI and had to wait for ages. Doctors on the whole do not care about their patients and the...

Everyone is trying to rip us off these days. It never ends. Woolworths at Woodford are experts in this area.

I have a feeling that deep down Harry now regrets his choice of a wife. He has lost his royal status, his family in the U.K., his country and his brother. I think Miss Difficult is a social climber. In time Harry will realise his error but I don't know what he will do about it!

I do not use social media at all as it is not worth the risk.

Try to avoid aged care at all costs! no homes. These places are death camps - people suffer from near starvation, wrong medication, not being washed, falling out of bed, general neglect - all while the so called carers enjoy life! No one in an aged care home wants to be there. Live alone even if...
