    This young woman's horrendous experience leads to warning for Aussies on the road

    Used to see them resting on car boots a lot when l was younger, don't see it much now. I would have taken the same action as you. Just too lazy to put their feet on the ground for support when at a standstill.

    This young woman's horrendous experience leads to warning for Aussies on the road

    Perhaps but comments on a RAC survey show going between vehicles is legal but l believe should be outlawed for safety reasons. (I suppose a nasty person, driver or passenger, could open a door just as the rider reached that point. TALK ABOUT ROAD RAGE!)

    Big change coming to iconic café chain and what it means for your favourite treats

    I believe the fact the the remaining franchises are being given the opportunity to change is positive. They just need to modify the business & keep trading. At least they then still have a business, with some hard yakka.

    This young woman's horrendous experience leads to warning for Aussies on the road

    In W.A. drivers must pass a cyclist with @ least 1 metre clearance. On a dual lane road this means using the 2nd lane & applies to motorcycles too of course. Motorcycles have a right to a lane on their own. Apparently riding between cars on a motorcycle is legal here. HOW CAN THEY HAVE IT...

    ‘Do you know how hot it is?!’: Explosive argument over dog in parked car divides the internet

    Definitely not an animal lover, as she claims to be. I DID NOTICE THE CUP WAS LESS THAN HALF FULL OF LIQUID. HOW LONG WOULD THAT SUFFICE A THIRSTY ANIMAL IN A VERY HOT CAR? (with windows down or not) Last year a carer left his 'handicapped charge' in a car with windows up & with his seat belt...

    It’s a 'lifesaver’: This simple app is changing bin night forever

    My wife remembers which fortnight to put out the Recycling Bin easily. The recycle bin goes out (with the rubbish bin) the SAME WEEK AS OUR PENSIONS ARE PAID.

    Are you about to pay for this $122 million development? See how this change can affect you soon

    Watching the little movie show of the proposed development l saw parking areas at the beginning with a vehicle leaving & entering from the main road on the right. BUT DID I SEE ANY PARKING AREAS IN THE FINAL MINUTES OF THIS DEVELOPMENT? I DON'T THINK SO. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

    Overpaying for power? Find out why many concession cardholders spend more than they should!

    We live in W.A., were aware of this & have been receiving this rebate for years. It doesn't matter how much per annum this is because on a Pension every $ counts.

    Joke Perception!

    Many years ago l only had a hearing aid in my right ear. When l was driving & my wife spoke to me l couldn't hear her. I have no excuse now because l wear an aid in both ears.

    I believe you did everything correct. These people were trespassing & were asked to leave but chose to ignore your request. You gave them every opportunity to obey your request. Whether they may have been drinking at the time is not your concern. I am believing you have lived at this address...

    Say goodbye to GP appointments: See how pharmacies are changing healthcare consultations

    I use HOTDOCS for appointments & can usually book an appointment the same day or the following day & always at a time to suit me. Best part, this can be done anytime of the day incl. after hours. This is a large Practice with 5 male Drs & the same female Drs, so plenty to choose from if you are...

    Find out why this Aussie TikTok sensation is calling Australia's most notorious property 'insane'—It'll blow your mind!

    I wonder if they considered selling a portion of the lot while rebuilding on a selected parcel of the land. This could be made a condition of the sale where the developer has to built the home they want?

    Showering wrong can be filthy and dangerous—are you making this common mistake?

    Whatever happened to just singing in the shower as people used to do? The acoustics are great & we never needed music for accompaniment. One member mentioned doing without their phone for a while. Sometimes l go out & forget my mobile but l am not going home for it, just do without it for 3 or...

    The rising cost of living is closing some iconic spots—here’s what’s keeping them alive

    Remember going to the Drive in as a youngster was a treat. Go to the shop & buy a twin biscuit chocolate. Then used to go with my girlfriend, now my wife. I think the most memorable was the night that started out fine & then started to rain. We needed the windscreen wipers regularly & the...
