    Doctors see massive surge in senior hospitalisations due to this problem

    When I came to Australia in 1972 I had perfect teeth for a 21-year-old. One day I felt a pain at the back of my teeth so I chose what I thought to be a reputable dentist and booked an appointment (which was free) and off I went. This guy was very personable and had a look in my mouth and told me...

    The Alphabet Song Will Never Be The Same – Find Out Why The Internet Is Losing Its Mind Over This New Version!

    What?! Change the Alphabet song?!!! OK, where's Trump when you need him (whoops, thoughts. he could not deal with it such as his weading and witin skills are) so, what do we do> Oh yes of course a referendum, that should give us some guidelines that we can look at and ignore.

    ‘Many are fed up’: Local pushes back on Aussie tourists

    Well, I think the lady was very wrong for smoking where it is not allowed. The snowboarder was right to make mention of it to her and when she apologised and extinguished the cigarette that should have been the end of it. The over-the-top reaction by the snowboarder afterwards was wrong in...

    Thank you for all that. We were treated quite well and I was proud to serve my Country.

    Former prime minister sparks fiery debate with TV host: 'We believe in free speech'

    I have to say thank you for being a member of the defense fraternity here in Aus and I do sympathise with you after my own service experience in Vietnam. But we have to move on to what is now a new and modernised version of the armed forces. I would really be interested in what the underwater...

    Former prime minister sparks fiery debate with TV host: 'We believe in free speech'

    I see your point that unmanned drones are an option, I have not heard of them so cannot comment. There are plenty of staff to run the new subs as they are now training in the USA. The French can also provide the same training.

    Former prime minister sparks fiery debate with TV host: 'We believe in free speech'

    I agree that the current submarines in our fleet are outdated and that is why we have to replace them urgently with nuclear-powered versions. Also, they would of course be fitted with the latest technology for defense and attack even if this is denied by the powers that be.

    Former prime minister sparks fiery debate with TV host: 'We believe in free speech'

    I can see a need for us to continue with the purchase of the submarines for our defense reasons. Perhaps though and considering the US President's ridiculous antics we should pull out of AUKUS, write off the money spent to date, and reinstate the agreement that we had with the French if they...

    RBA’s big decision for the $5 note has left Australians split—where do you stand?

    I'm just wondering if the upcoming $10.00 note will have a full welcome to country on it with smoke coming out when it is removed from a wallet?

    Shock exit! This beloved Brisbane landmark is shutting down for good

    Did not enjoy the video, there are many more beautiful suites in the Hilton Brisbane rather than just the el cheapo version shown. The video did not do it justice.

    ‘Not even for the dog’: ALDI shopper’s mince purchase sparks safety debate

    Agree with all the above and maybe when she unpacked her groceries the meat was placed on a warm surface which could have caused discolouration.

    ‘Please be more considerate’: The photo that has Melbourne shoppers fuming

    Honestly, some people do not realise what this area is (they have to be a moron) but that is the truth. A fine should make them aware of this area's meaning and perhaps encourage them not to do it again.

    Footy fans celebrate price drop on stadium favourite but brace for increases elsewhere

    Return airfare SYD-ADEL-SYD plus hotel, taxi, and game ticket price on top of the pie might make it a bit pricey for me. Good old TV, thank goodness.

    Man sneaks into wildlife park and makes off with one animal in daring theft

    When they catch this idiot they should give him the opportunity of taking a proper selfie with a full-size Saltie.

    'That's a monster!': Farmers strike gold with this rare find on their farm!

    Mmm! So Tradies were attending the farm irrigation system. Was that included in the farms' sewage system? That might encourage the growth of a large truffle or other surprising vegetable—just a thought.

    Not here in NSW but it is subsidised.

    Guests panic out of their hotel rooms after one shocking emergency

    I wonder just how many guests in hotels actually read the evacuation procedures when they check in?

    Telco giant launches massive update to tackle scams! Here's how you can benefit from it

    I am a Telstra customer and this feature has been working for some time. It also seems to identify the many charity organisations that are looking for donations, which I am embarrassed about because I cannot afford them all. It's a great way to ignore it rather than have to explain it.
