    Aussies feel pressured to tip—radio host reveals how he handles it

    I agree with you that while Kyle and Jacki O can afford to tip BIG, some of us don't have as deeper pockets, so I'll tip "IF" I want to and to the extent I feel the tip is warranted as I'm not paying more if the food or service is not to my liking as I've experienced in some restaurants.

    Is Kmart fixing a decade-old mistake? Insiders reveal what’s coming

    I have said this for MANY YEARS that all they did was make is easier for the "five-fingered" discount shoppers. About BLOODY time K-Mart woke up to themselves as we the rest of the public have been paying for these "five-fingered" discount shoppers and hopefully MORE of them WILL BE PICK UP ON NOW.

    This beloved treat has changed⁠—did you notice?

    Basically no different to when my hubby worked at Streets when they called their ice cream "Ice Confection".

    Former child star loses driving rights after drug test discovery: 'Drugs are a solution'

    A life driving ban does absolutely nothing as they get out on the road the very next day. Just a couple of nights ago a 74 year old was caught driving without a license and had charges longer than ones arm. SO WHAT THE HELL! 🤷‍♀️ :mad:

    Slow Cooked Roast Beef

    I love slow cooked roast beef much better than lamb as I find lamb a little too fatty for my liking. Thank you Suzanne for sharing, I'll give your recipe a try.

    This parking behaviour has sparked outrage–could it be happening near you?

    I have a disability parking card, but never use it especially in shopping centres because at some centres they're not far from the entrance, but then other shoppers push their trolleys through between the cars and at times damage the cars, so I park right away. Also, I've seen tradie utes parked...

    French coconut pie scrumptious

    I like most of BB recipes, but wish they'd be converted before posting as there's more than me who are "recipe addicts". Actually I have copies of ALL weights, measures and temps converted on charts for quick references, but that's me. Not everyone has done this, so it would help many others if...

    French coconut pie scrumptious

    Mmmmm! Something tells me different! :unsure: 🤷‍♀️ I keep asking for her to check out the ingredients BEFORE POSTING, but I feel I'm talking to a brick wall. :confused::mad: It's not hard to check things out first from Google BEFORE POSTING! :confused:

    Former child star loses driving rights after drug test discovery: 'Drugs are a solution'

    Sorry, but when he knows he has a drug problem he should seek help and not just keep thinking " I'll be right mate - give me another hit". That's NOT the way life goes, he MUST take responsibility for how OWN ACTIONS AND SEEK HELP as we all need from time to time with "whatever" the situation...

    Fresh or foul? Coles customers outraged over questionable food on shelves

    I also buy the "reduced" price items such as meat and if not use it that day I freeze it, but use within a couple of days. I think "if I don't buy it someone else will, so why not me get the bargain". I DO check out the "use by date" first on all produce be it meat or fruit and veggies because...

    ‘They should all be fined’: Reckless thrill-seekers spark outrage as Cyclone Alfred hits

    I say "EACH TO THEIR OWN" they play with fire they deserve to get burnt. STUPID IS - STUPID DOES!! :confused: NOBODY should attempt to rescue these IDIOTS as they've put themselves in the "LINE OF FIRE". 🤬

    Authorities nab one man travelling under a fake identity and more

    I understand your point about women fleeing from abusive relationships as hubby and I work closely with a group that provide shelter for these women and their children.

    Old time Peach Cobbler with Ice Cream

    And what does one do with the remaining pancake mix? I know what I'd like to say, but I'm more polite than you it seems.

    Old time Peach Cobbler with Ice Cream

    Bisquik is NOT available in Australia. I wish Babybird would stop and think before she posts these recipes for the ingredients availability.:mad:🤬

    Truth unfolds: Devoted husband who inspired iconic song passes at 82

    So sorry to hear of Carl Dean's passing the late husband of Dolly Parton. I remember when hubby and I were driving through Tennessee (USA) on our way on a self-drive tour from Miami up the entire east coast of USA to Canada. When we were driving from Nashville through Asheville, Knoxville...

    ‘We’re not being provided with a basic human need’: Australians left high and dry

    I think our government is staying "SCHTOOM" about a LOT of things. INFRASTRUCTURE is the MAIN thing we need ALL OVER THIS COUNTRY and NOT more immigrants at this stage until we take stock of what we already have.

    ‘We’re not being provided with a basic human need’: Australians left high and dry

    I agree with you as I also grew up with the wringer washing machine as I had to help my mum by standing on a box and feeding the clothes through the wringer. Then when mums washing machine broke down she had to wash by hand in the outside copper, then bring them into the outside washroom (as it...

    Federal court decision reveals truth as favourite Aussie fashion brand faces collapse

    I agree with you about our entitlements. I've said it before and I'll say it again "with all these stores closing down I'll have to go around naked as they were my only wardrobe filler". Also, with Autumn upon us I'll be feeling rather cold. :unsure: 😰😂🤣

    Alert: Coles issues recall on this favourite lunch item—could it harm you?

    My immediate thoughts also. A bit late to shut the gate gate after the bull has bolted. 🐃 They've eventually sent out notification to cover their butts. 🤷‍♀️
