    Kmart introduces one new security measure in select stores to combat this problem

    Thank you for your thoughts and wishes and hope you keep well also. I've also had a spinal procedure done at the base of my skull which has caused me another problem as that surgeon had to go in from the front at my neck (literally had my throat cut ;)) and around the side of my oesophagus to...

    Federal court decision reveals truth as favourite Aussie fashion brand faces collapse

    With ALL these fashion stores plus other small businesses closing down because of on-line shopping the rent is going to SKY-ROCKET through the roof for those that are left in the shopping centres. This all means even the supermarket stores will have their rent increased and who do you think is...

    Kmart introduces one new security measure in select stores to combat this problem

    Thank you for your understanding as it's obvious that some DON'T, wait until they NEED to have any replacement done. Good luck to you and you take care as well.💐(y)😘

    Kmart introduces one new security measure in select stores to combat this problem

    I can assure you it's NO FUNNY business having to HAVE the procedure done four times - 3 times on the right, but once on the left which was good first time around (done and dusted)(y). It was the first surgeon who stuffed me up by placing the right side hip replacement higher than the left hip...

    Kmart introduces one new security measure in select stores to combat this problem

    Putting more bays in won't stop the lazy ones. I always park my car away from trolley bays and shopping entrances because of the lazy ones also for those who don't care when walking between the cars to get to their car and leave damage to your car. But, inevitably there is always SOMEONE who...

    A new wave of car thefts is sweeping Australia—are you at risk?

    Also, if you have a doggy door that a 12-13 year old can climb through, put a lock on it as well as the thieves are using these smaller kids to gain entry.

    Would it be unreasonable to put a lock on my bedroom door?

    We had a similar problem a few years ago when we went away for a month and asked one of our sons and his wife if could stay at our home for security reasons. They agreed that they would and I told them that they could use the spare bedroom which has a queen size bed and storage for their...

    ‘They are men’: Teen speaks out as debate erupts over new policy

    I was thinking the same thing as I've 3 granddaughters who go to a gym regularly and I think they would feel rather uncomfortable if a male was in the change room changing while they were changing.

    ‘They are men’: Teen speaks out as debate erupts over new policy

    I agree with you and for yours and everyone else's information at the Riverside Theatre in Paramatta, Sydney they DO have "male", "Female" and 'Other" Rest Rooms which we found to be very welcoming for those who needed them. I think I'd feel a little uncomfortable if I saw a male walking in the...

    A new wave of car thefts is sweeping Australia—are you at risk?

    Sadly the Club Lock doesn't always deter them because they'll take it if they want that model vehicle. We have 2 police officers in our family and they've told us that the Club Locks just get sawn through now even though they're not as widely used used anymore. I feel to just keep your keys...

    Authorities found Hollywood star (95) and wife (64) dead inside their home

    We're all going down the same road one way or another and at various times by different circumstances, so no one should speculate as NONE of us were there. It is SO SAD to hear of Vale Gene and Arakawa's passing as they were both brilliant in each of the lives. All we can do now is remember...

    Is this the cutest kitchen appliance you’ve seen? Find out what shoppers are divided!

    Why would anyone want a 2Lt oven, I guess other than putting in a "thin sandwich" to toast because that's all one would be able to fit into it. :ROFLMAO: 😂

    Man shares his 'biggest cleanup ever' after seeing this woman's home

    God bless Nathan for all his work and for no return other than what the Children's Hospital will get. If you read the story right through you'll see where the family situation is broken down, so they don't care. The only thing now is that "when" Nathan has done his good deed and the Real Estate...

    'Crazy': Expat shares his awe at how Aussies do this household chore

    Nor the bins as in a LOT of streets the footpaths, they're so narrow that they wouldn't fit especially when all the cars are parked along the streets as well. I love going over to England as we've been MANY times, but I couldn't live there full time because I don't like the cold. We might be...

    This 'eyesore' parking method is disrupting Aussie roads—is it time for major change?

    I wish our Council would see the light on this situation. I'm in the Hills district and just in my narrow street alone just 1km long we have 8 caravans, 3 boats and 3 trailers. We also have a caravan, but we've ALWAYS had it parked in on our own property back away from the street so that drivers...

    Discover the Shocking Before and After: How a Pro Cleaner Obliterates the Nastiest Pantry Mould You've Ever Seen!

    Another reason why you should turn on the extractor above your cooktop every time you use it. I have 2 pantries and both are at the opposite end of my kitchen to the stove. I'll also add that I have a "LARGE" kitchen, but realise not everyone would have a large kitchen.

    ‘Wait how have I just noticed that’: Nutella logo mystery finally explained!

    My favourite is the "Australian Blood Orange Marmalade" from Beerenberg that I can only find in Woolworths, it's pretty much the only jam I'll eat other than maybe plum. As much as I like strawberry jam I don't like the seeds getting in between my teeth. I will buy a small jar of Apricot jam for...

    Apple ginger chutney

    An Instant Pot is an electric pressure cooker - I have one and use it frequently beside using either one of my 2 Air Fryers, depending on what I'm cooking.
