    Are you living with a 'Ticking Time Bomb'? This Toxic Plant could be behind a whopping $4.3 Billion Catastrophe!

    When hubby and I were doing the loop back in 2019 I remember down around the south of WA the MANY areas that were covered with the Arum lilies. Yes, they're a favourite for brides as the bridal bouquet, but I think ALL councils SHOULD take MORE stance on eradicating ALL these known "WEEDS" for...

    'It completely ruins my week': Why does this supermarket tactic annoy shoppers?

    I know exactly what you mean as I also worked for a large supermarket conglomerate and we were told that it's to keep the shoppers looking around and they'll purchase more unintended goods. Now that I'm in my 80S and disabled I find it extremely hard to either reach to the top, but worse to bend...

    This 'outdated' airline system could be impacting your flight—here’s what you need to know

    Jet Star have been flying the skies for many years now and computers have been around many more years. Why can't these companies up date their data like we get notified all the time about our phone data being updated without our permission as it just happens anyway. Jet Star needs to get their...

    ‘Our design costs the taxpayer nothing’: Is this the $5 redesign Australia should get behind?

    I totally agree with you re gamiry. I would prefer King Charles on the note as he is our monarch also the small splash of the indigenous as shown because no matter what, I can spend it anyway I want.

    Easy 3 ingredients 7up cobler bake

    Not only myself, but I'm sure there are many others that would really appreciate you to convert the ingredients before YOU POST. I feel that that would be the MORE decent thing to do as that's what I'd do for my fellow seniors.

    Reckless train stunts by teenagers spark public outrage and concern

    Sorry, but I'd pull the plug on them. No, I'm not sorry, just pull it as they probably could have caused the death of many other innocent people.

    Easy 3 ingredients 7up cobler bake

    Never mind about the 7-up (lemonade in Oz) I'm sick of the recipes you've been posting with ingredients that we CAN'T purchase here in Australia. Please, please make sure of the ingredients being available here in Australia before posting. I love most of your recipes, but just getting sick of...

    Professional cleaner says this 60-second hack will save you hours on bathroom chores

    I've never worked in the hospitality industry, but used this method every day since being married 57 years ago as I found it saved a LOT of my time for other things. Also, I've always liked the look of walking into my bathroom or kitchen and seeing nice shiny silver taps. Also, to clean down the...

    Aussies feel pressured to tip—radio host reveals how he handles it

    I agree with you that while Kyle and Jacki O can afford to tip BIG, some of us don't have as deeper pockets, so I'll tip "IF" I want to and to the extent I feel the tip is warranted as I'm not paying more if the food or service is not to my liking as I've experienced in some restaurants.

    Is Kmart fixing a decade-old mistake? Insiders reveal what’s coming

    I have said this for MANY YEARS that all they did was make is easier for the "five-fingered" discount shoppers. About BLOODY time K-Mart woke up to themselves as we the rest of the public have been paying for these "five-fingered" discount shoppers and hopefully MORE of them WILL BE PICK UP ON NOW.

    This beloved treat has changed⁠—did you notice?

    Basically no different to when my hubby worked at Streets when they called their ice cream "Ice Confection".

    Former child star loses driving rights after drug test discovery: 'Drugs are a solution'

    A life driving ban does absolutely nothing as they get out on the road the very next day. Just a couple of nights ago a 74 year old was caught driving without a license and had charges longer than ones arm. SO WHAT THE HELL! 🤷‍♀️ :mad:

    Slow Cooked Roast Beef

    I love slow cooked roast beef much better than lamb as I find lamb a little too fatty for my liking. Thank you Suzanne for sharing, I'll give your recipe a try.

    This parking behaviour has sparked outrage–could it be happening near you?

    I have a disability parking card, but never use it especially in shopping centres because at some centres they're not far from the entrance, but then other shoppers push their trolleys through between the cars and at times damage the cars, so I park right away. Also, I've seen tradie utes parked...

    French coconut pie scrumptious

    I like most of BB recipes, but wish they'd be converted before posting as there's more than me who are "recipe addicts". Actually I have copies of ALL weights, measures and temps converted on charts for quick references, but that's me. Not everyone has done this, so it would help many others if...
