    Gas, electric or solar: Which one is really best for your hot water system?

    We actually have gas on demand hot water simply because we’ve replaced two electric cylinders, the second one actually caused a minor flood. It was a case of either installing a cylinder outside, which meant a lot of work re-wiring & extra plumbing, or going gas on demand, which I wasn’t sure...

    Kmart’s Homewares Dupe Is Turning Heads—Could You Be Missing Out on Designer Style for Half the Price?

    It doesn’t exactly look very comfortable, well not for my tired bones. I do like the colour but wouldn’t swap it for my very comfy recliner La-Zboy! I love them so much that I have 5 plus a 2seater recliner sofa, so everyone can be comfortable.

    Could your marriage survive this shocking betrayal? Melbourne bride’s wedding ends in just ONE hour!

    What disgraceful behaviour from the groom! He should have broken things off long before the wedding. The poor bride, it’s just too horrible to think about. What a total scumbag! I hope Kylie meets a man who truly deserves to be with her.

    Gen Z turns household appliances into storage in growing trend

    Not all young parents shirk teaching their children important life lessons. My neighbours have 3 boys, 9, 5 & 21mths, & they like to cook & make stuff, albeit in the Thermomix. On gardening days the boys all pitch in and help, even the baby who fetches & carries. I know that the older two are...

    Good News You Might Have Missed

    How sad for you Vinylted. My friend is also not very ambulatory until she’s cross with that man, & decides that she’s leaving, actually making it up the street one day. I didn’t think that she was capable of getting that far. There are so many people suffering, along with carers, all over the...

    Good News You Might Have Missed

    This is so sad for your friend Ezzy. At the moment my friend is convinced that her husband has gone away & another man, who looks just like him, is there looking after her. She seems to be deteriorating rather quickly.

    'That's crazy': Aussies forced to rethink caffeine habits over this change

    I’m a Lavazza coffee person & have one mug full each morning, made in my pod machine. It’s usually only ever one a day unless I’m out, or catching up with one particular sister in law, then I’ll indulge in a long black, she doesn’t approve of coffee or much else actually. After my morning coffee...

    These homes are becoming a top choice for seniors! Would you live here?

    House prices are becoming ridiculous! I glance through the real estate section in our local paper & continue to be astounded by the number of houses with million plus dollars on them. Units are increasingly expensive also. As my son says, “it’s Launceston mum, what are they thinking?” Most of...

    Thankyou Ezzy. Some people truly do have a lot to deal with & they’re usually the most cheerful & always ready to help someone else. I’m fortunate that my immediate family are fine, apart from Teds skin cancer problems, which are under control for now, but it’s the extended family & close...

    Public figure slams TV program over controversial ADHD story

    We must have been very lucky! I was well aware of hyperactivity but throughout my time at kinder we really didn’t ever have a child who suffered with it. There were a few difficult ones with all sorts of interesting quirks, but nothing that we couldn’t deal with. It was a great place to work...

    Bondi woman makes surprising discovery in grocery purchase

    When I was pregnant I was eating yoghurt which had berries in it, bit into a berry & chomped a large bug in half! The company compensated me & I got lots of free products as well, but it was years before I could face yoghurt again. Almost eating a bug is a bit more traumatic than finding a nut...
