    Are you worried about the surge of snake bite incidents? Here's what to do, according to experts

    Please tell me how you find a professional snake catcher. We don't have telephone books any more so can't look there for their contact number. Anyway, by the time you found a contact for a snake catcher, rang him, gave your address, he got into his car & drove maybe an hour to get to you, the...

    Businesses urgently remove this common product, and you should be concerned

    I have never used hand sanitisers as I guessed there was something like alcohol in them & that would dry your hands something terrible. Need lots of hand cream to moisten them again after using sanitiser.

    Experts reveal new coronavirus strain, sparking global pandemic fears

    I object to being called a sheep just because I will gladly be vaccinated against any bug which might make me really ill or even kill me. For those who want to be a huge bug walking around trying to kill me, please stay at home - or, better still, go to the centre of the Simpson Desert & stay...

    Heartbreaking loss strikes renowned actress as husband passes away at 88 due to illness

    Never heard of him. There's way too many of these little known people being posted here as if they are well-known to everyone. Let's keep the page relevant to the majority of us.

    Discover the Incredible Life Trick of the Woman Who Lives Without Money or a Bank Account! See How She Does It!

    Her GoFundMe page should be shut down immediately. She chose to live off other people's generosity for the last 10 years, living virtually rent free on a friend's property, doing some cooking (presumably for that family as she doesn't say who for) probably with their ingredients from which she...

    Major change at Coles packaging sparks debate among shoppers: ‘Impressed’

    Paper bags for grapes will become soggy very quickly & break when picked up to put in your trolley. Apart from that, I want to be able to see what I am buying. If fresh produce is packed in a paper bag I have no idea of the quality of the grapes in the bottom of the bag so they would be left on...

    Supermarket rolls out one surprising transformation to their stores

    Totally unnecessary. Just another way that these big retailers try to increase their profits by "encouraging" customers to buy things they don't really want or need by impulse buying. Going shopping is a way to get away from screens for me & I definitely don't want to see any other screen...

    Postal nightmare: Australia Post worker stole $400,000 in packages from customers

    I was about to say the same thing. Fifteen months in prison is hardly anything to this thief. He should have been sentenced to at least 10 years & we need to bring back the added penalty of "with Hard Labour". Prisons these days are a walk in the park for many with all the things they have...

    Cash at risk? Seniors groups reveal shocking truth behind new mandate

    All fees for payment & withdrawing our money from the bank MUST stop. It costs the bank nothing for me to withdraw my money. They benefit when my money stays in my a/c as they have this money invested in ways they gain interest from it. I was in a store recently & went to the counter to...

    'Australia wins this one': Tourist’s reaction to Aussie service sparks debate

    So, we the shoppers, pay for you to charge your EV!! All electricity has to be paid for & the supermarkets recoup that cost by increasing the price of groceries. If you own an EV either use your own electricity or go where you pay for what you use - don't sponge off the rest of us.

    It’s a 'lifesaver’: This simple app is changing bin night forever

    I only put my recycle bin out when it gets pretty full but recently it was left full by the garbage truck so i solved that problem quick smart. I emptied everything in the regular green top bin & now don't use the recycle one. I don't need the extra stress of pulling out 2 bins to have one...

    Government allots millions of funds for this 'long-neglected' service

    And you think that Albosneezy wasn't thinking about an election when he announced this? Dream on. Maybe it was announced months ago but it only really hit the headlines in the last couple of days. Big push by Albo to get it known now,

    How often do Aussies really shower at camp? The debate you didn't know you were missing

    That dermatologist has obviously never been camping. Wash your hair every 3 days!!! I don't even do that at home & definitely not when camping where one could be relying on tank water for everyone to be able to shower. The conditions she mentions are so uncommon that even though I have worked...

    Major restaurant chain announces operational shift affecting multiple regions

    I went to Domino's not so long ago & was disgusted with the size, topping & price for their pizzas. I used to go there regularly when I lived in a different town quite some time ago, & their pizzas were value for money. I will never go back again. On the other hand, they have recently opened...

    Government allots millions of funds for this 'long-neglected' service

    Yep!! Election in a couple of months. Gotta put a good spin on what we have done/will do for you. Answer: You have done nothing & I don't expect anything more in the future.

    Ger your minds out of the gutter. There is nothing inappropriate to the mind of a small child receiving this toy. People need to stop putting sex at the front of everything they see.
