I have been in the same psychiatric hospital when l was 19 & again @ 22 years of age. I found male staff were the worse for being unhelpful & at times bullied male patients. On one occassion l was with other patients in a room playing pool when a Scottish male nurse & another male nurse entered...

[Cleaning the outside of the window can be done inside the home]. While standing inside the home you are able to lift the sash out of the frame. Slide the sash to the middle of the window, a hand either side of the sash & lift upwards, (approx 15 mm), then tilt the bottom forward to clear the...

First time reading this story for me & l normally read every story here. When did l miss this before???

I don't intend trying this to see if it helps my hearing aid batteries.

I will give them a go. Tim Tams are a nice treat.

As children we used to have a dry Weet - Bix topped with Vegemite. Still enjoy it today in different situations, such as a Vegemite & cheese toasted sandwich & even go to the Pantry with a teaspoon, scoop it from the jar & slowly eat it.

I didn't think of calling a snake catcher when told a snake had slithered into the house & into the storeroom. Killed it, called the authorities & was asked if it was still alive because they wanted it. Best way to lure this out would have been with a plate of milk, apparently.

I never had Super when l was working. Starting work in 1968 this was unheard of. When l was in my 40's this wasn't compulsory & l couldn't afford to pay a Home Loan & raise a family anyway.

Thankyou for the photos Ann. Gives a clear idea of this 'unusual' find.

We live in a narrow street where one car can be safely parked either side of the road with just enough room to safely drive one car at a time, either way, down the middle. Talking to a Ranger one day, & without asking, he told me parking either side was legal. Reversing out of a driveway...

Those agencies which handle NDIS & have clients are definitely milking the Government cow because it is the Government! I am aware of one agency where clients were not receiving what they were entitled to but on paper they did. Many $'s were siphoned off for personal use. Overcharging a...

Perhaps he thought he couldn't have his cake & eat it too?

I know the feeling.

Apparently people who make Persian Rugs leave a flaw in them because they cannot be perfect because only God is perfect. I wonder how that lady would handle finding a flaw in a Persian Rug if she bought one. The flaw would be under her feet all the time & not on the top of a table. Time for a...

I have to agree with lggydi when it comes to ordering as stated. Regularly at a takeaway we stood back, urging other people to go before us because we haden't made up our mind about our order. Better for us, customers behind us & staff because everyone gets through quicker. Sometimes a customer...

Family comes first & l believe this is what Kate is saying. She has missed her husband & 4 children growing up. [I believe l missed many precious moments of my children's growing up years while working shift work. I wasn't there]. Kate is still young enough to try something new. Fans shouldn't...

Peter was a person we always looked forward to listening to every weekday morning. His introduction music @ 9 am was so zippy (for want of an expression), there was no mistaking it. His voice was authoritative & he was always interesting to listen to with interesting segments on his shows that...
