    Tradespeople make shocking mistakes at Bunnings you must avoid

    As they say, all fun isn't harmless. I have witnessed people pushing the store trolly around with their own pet rabbits during Easter, while the Bunnings Bunny handed out chocolate eggs.

    Are parking fees for large cars about to skyrocket? You won't believe the reason why

    While the larger vehicles may cause inconvenience to others, is it right to charge the minimum hourly wage per hour of parking? Doesn't make sense to me. It would be better to enforce better planning requirements for said parking areas.

    Actor leaves his groundbreaking legacy in the Australian television industry

    I wonder what happened between the 70's and 80's. If 3 gay guys were the most popular on TV during the 70's, why were there so many Homosexual Hate Crimes in the 80's?

    ‘This isn’t right’: Debate erupts after shopper shares frustrating Woolies encounter

    The minute I noticed her user name and 'occupation', I guessed this was going to be a case of entitlement and attention seeking. $68 doesn't buy you much in Woolies and if you can't shove that much shopping into a bag, instead of filming the interaction, the problem is you.

    'Can anyone explain why?': Coles' self-checkout policy confuses shoppers

    Even the manned checkouts request that the bulky items get scanned first. I assume that it's because they allow you to leave them in your trolley. As an old and not very strong person, I find this helpful. It also saves other shopping from getting squashed. I think this rule has lost something...

    Scam purporting to be from the ATO

    I get all the same crap, and a lot supposedly from Telstra. Since I have no phone accounts in my own name, these bastards get hung up on as soon as they claim to be from Telstra, or swiped away if in email form. Often they communicate with a distinct Indian accent claiming to be eg Joe Average...

    Peter Dutton reveals cost-of-living measures that may 'make a real difference to families'

    Dbutton is physically incapable of telling the truth. His playbook is 'Trump-lite'. We've all seen how quickly he backed down on his promises once elected. Dutton is only making this announcement to distract from the fact that his other 'so-called' policies are falling like dominoes.
