    I Have Been Banned From Both Branches of Chemist Warehouse In Ipswich By Their Franchisee

    Kind words. Thank you Shazann. My leg remains swollen. I have a GP appointment tomorrow (Monday 16 December). The health ombudsman acknowledged receipt of my complaint but no updates as yet. Thanks for asking. Merry Christmas to you and yours, too.

    'I simply clicked the link': Man shares how one email put his Centrelink payments at risk

    No we do NOT. Only if I had an Aussie Defence Gold Card or a pensioner's concession card. Otherwise Aunty Albo regards me as a regular bloody Rockefeller!!!!

    'I simply clicked the link': Man shares how one email put his Centrelink payments at risk

    It is not my fault that doctors don't feel they are being adequately recompensed for their years of training. I, a pensioner with diabetes, am required to make more than the average number of GP and endocrinologist appointments. You might consider it is my fault for not gaining valued and...

    As I have replied to some others, if this hadn't been me, I might have been tempted to consider there was more to this story, too. It is me and it happened as I reported. Alas.

    Indeed, in most cases. But as I have replied to some others on here, if this hadn't been me, I might have been tempted to consider there was more to this story. It is me and it happened as I reported. Alas.

    Thanks. But I had just come from my GP who gave me a stern warning that if I felt feverish, to go to A&E and, understanding lower limb infections with diabetes, would stick me on intravenous antibiotics. It is a shame that this franchise owner failed to piece together the jigsaw.

    If it hadn't happened to me I might agree. But there is not more to this.

    Translink QLD. Useless.

    Translink QLD. Useless. I had an appointment booked for this morning at 09:50 with my endocrinologist. I missed this appointment due to the southeast Queensland transport provider's gross incompetence. When I got up, I took my daily blood sugar reading and added it to my daily blood sugar...

    I am mortified to learn of your poverty but your whining doesn't help me, a pensioner one iota.

    'I simply clicked the link': Man shares how one email put his Centrelink payments at risk

    Station Road Medical Centre, South Station Road, Booval (a suburb of Ipswich), Queensland 4304, sent me an SMS with a message to contact them. This message contained a link. I wrote to the practice manager asking them not to send links for the reasons of which, in this day and age, they must...

    And they were right to refuse it. Money-grabbers adding H2O to bulk out their product is not new.

    Protect your computers and phones: these six words could make you a hacker's next victim

    Oh BINGO!!!!!!! I could be a cynic (I hear ya...) but they could be using all their resources on money-grabbing motoring "offences." But WAIT! There's more... The technology behind robot speed cameras, numberplate recognition, etc., was designed to release human law enforcers to the...
