    Rental crisis forces pensioner to leave her community and loved ones behind: 'It's greed, pure greed.'

    I really feel for this lady. However, this nonsense about greedy landlords is just that. During their working lives, some people make an investment in a rental property to bolster their retirement savings. Then in their 60s they may sell that property using advice from their financial expert to...

    Shoppers in Shock: 'Insane' price of chips at Woolworths sparks outrage on social media

    There is a potato shortage and prices have risen across all potato products. Agree that ‘chip’ prices are horrendous, so no potato snacks at our house until further notice. Just hope the prices drop back to a more reasonable amount and the companies don’t make this the new norm! NB. Just back...

    British expat shocked by 'insane' cost of grocery shop, asks Aussies for advice

    Sorry. I’m sure a couple of the items might be cheaper in Uk, but you will def. NOT get a kilo of chicken breasts for 5 pounds 60 pence. It’s swings and roundabouts comparing prices between Oz and UK - some higher some lower.

    Driver draws flak for blocking disabled park: 'Imagine being that entitled'

    Someone I know acquired a Disability Permit for a disabled relative to use whilst visiting Australia. When said relative returned home to UK, this person continued to use the Permit and even bragged to friends about it. He maintained that he didn’t take up a Disabled parking spot, but kept it...

    See the $18,000 wedding dress that the internet HATES

    I’m sure she loved wearing it on her Big Day. Whenever that was, it was no doubt the latest fashion. Unfortunately I think she is going to be very, very disappointed at what it’s worth now. 🙁

    This woman's nauseating act on a three-hour plane trip has people talking

    Not something I would have thought of doing. I usually like to look my best before I fly. 🙂 Beats me what some people think is ok to do on a flight. Toe nail clipping, feet stuck between seats, allowing their Rugrats to bounce about or kick the seat in front of them. Returned recently from Bali...

    Meghan Markle reveals SHOCKING reason behind game show exit years ago

    Moaning Markle’s days are numbered. She should realise that playing the victim always has the same ending. People eventually get tired of listening to victims and ignore them. Incidentally, isn’t it the general idea of make-up, props and costumes to enhance the appearance of actors and even a...

    Former 60 Minutes Star Finds Unlikely Solution To Bizarre Feud With Neighbours

    Nothing worse than having a nice view, then some developer comes along and puts up flats right in your line of sight. Happens a lot I know, and I feel for people whose homes are blighted by towering structures built on their boundary. In this case I think the compromise re glass is liveable for...

    Traveller gets slammed for 'disgusting' hotel cooking trick that he claims saves him money

    Last time I use a kettle or coffee maker in a hotel. Some people are so self-entitled these days…. and selfishly disgusting! 😡

    Distressed newlyweds cry for help as “neighbour from hell” builds giant fence that could trap them from their home — “It’s like living in a nightmare”

    May not seem high, but it’s causing a mountain of trouble for the young couple. Having had a complete a#####e of a neighbour at our last home, I can sympathise with them. Sorry to say that with some people you just can’t win, and after 14 years of his petty minded nonsense we sold up and moved...

    ‘Right place, right time’ – see how this shopper saved $269 on her chicken haul

    Precisely. At a time when many are struggling, maybe take two or three packs. Leave some for another shopper. 🙂

    Meghan was so ‘overwhelmed’ by the UK citizenship test, she allegedly had to ask Prince Harry for help

    There is also a case for her thinking she was above sitting any Citizenship Test. Meghan has shown herself to be a very narrow minded person - what Meghan wants Meghan gets. Well she’s getting something now. A world of disrespect. Harry may be the King’s son, but wouldn’t put it past Charles to...
