    Major driving licence update may affect over one million Aussie drivers

    Return to learning their Road Rules for their Driver’s Licence Test by ROTE. Make them MEMORISE EVERY RULE like we had to do. It is the only way to learn and remember!

    Aussies’ favourite breakfast staple under threat due to reduced production

    Noticed there are hardly any Australian tinned fruits on Coles shelves! It’s all Chinese crap, and instead of lots of fruit choices now it’s is only maybe four. Noticed our once long biscuit aisles have shrunk dramatically as well. Once we had oodles of Aussie bickies to choose from, but...
