    Tensions hit a boiling point as Prince Harry drops a bombshell about his father’s health

    Can’t we let poor Diana rest in peace? The original story was about Harry, then Meghan. I think that the majority of us don’t care that much about the Royal Family.

    Tensions hit a boiling point as Prince Harry drops a bombshell about his father’s health

    I totally agree with you Magpie. I havent watched any of their interviews & certainly didn’t read the book, but did see a clip of Meghan performing her elaborate curtsy. I felt it was being disrespectful to the late Queen & rest of the family. I’m not a great fan of the Monarchy and I really...

    New camera trial aims to catch drivers in the act–are you breaking this rule?

    Hope Tasmania roll these out on our two main highways, though annoying tailgaters probably wouldn’t notice them. I forgot, that now our government has decided to fully fund the AFL stadium, so that it’s truly Tasmanian owned, they won’t have money for anything sensible.

    Tensions hit a boiling point as Prince Harry drops a bombshell about his father’s health

    I just wish he’d shut up & stop the constant whining! He is not exactly doing a lot to encourage reconciliation with his family, a big apology would be a good place to start.

    ‘Have you ever heard anything so ridiculous?’: One traveller's shocking experience with carry-on fees

    I’m often amazed at the amount of stuff people expect to carry onboard with them. How hard is it to purchase scales to make sure that your carry on bag is not overweight before leaving for the airport?

    'My neighbour demanded I remove my garden decor... is it unreasonable to refuse?'

    Exactly! I would get a whole flock of them. Can’t stand interfering neighbours, who cares whether they like it or not. Personally, I can’t stand flamingo statues, but if I thought they’d annoy people, I‘d have them everywhere.

    Cut Your Heart Attack Risk in Half? New Study Reveals Surprising Benefits of Light Wine Drinking!

    It’s amazing! Only last week I read where a cardiologist had stated that we shouldn’t drink wine at all as it was bad for our hearts. I prefer this weeks news. 😂

    ‘Does anyone else think this is weird?’: Young woman receives an unexpected birthday letter from local MP

    My recently defeated MP sent me a card for my 70th birthday. I simply accepted it as a kind gesture. Certainly not worth the fuss of putting it online.

    Discover the Secret European Cities Are Using to Drastically Improve Daily Life – Why Isn't Australia Keeping Up?

    Smaller cities is rather an appealing idea. My home city of Launceston isn’t big, population wise, but is continuing to spread out in all directions. Public transport, buses only, usually run mostly empty unless it’s school time. Our taxi service is terrible so most people have to drive...

    A close friend of ours has prostate cancer which was picked up by a very thorough GP. His urologist decided not to operate, so he had a few weeks of radiation & has now started on a course of hormone injections. He’s a bit concerned about having hot flushes but we’ll have to wait & see how it...

    Joke A Little Help

    I was wondering where you were Dennis. Sorry you had a fall & hope that you’re well again very soon. My elderly brother in law had a fall outside, late last week, but he hit his head on the cemented area & had a short stay in hospital to watch for a brain bleed. He’s fine now, though a bit...
