I would have thought Byron Bay had enough trouble with late night 'revelers' and subsequent violence and other anti-social activities (especially around the time of Schoolies Week!) to warrant, let alone want, such a thing. Unless, of course, the venue is totally walled off from the people...

I wouldn't

the whole situation could have been resolved sooner if they'd contacted the police at the first or second instance. Yes, the fruit and nut cake probably would have escalated - more quickly - and the police and courts been a lot more aggressive about controlling his behaviour. The neighbour...

Albo, like all Australian Politicians and far, far too many Australians refusing to see the facts: Trump does what Trump likes, and Trump likes people licking his arse and crawling to him. A far more dignified response to the preposterous threat of tariffs (and China's Covid Pandemic...

My policy remains: buy Australian or not at all. So far, I have never found anything untoward in Australian canned produce.

From the time of getting snail mail letters inviting you to participate in a fraud on the Nigerian government to the emails offering to double your bank account provided you give your bank account details to a total stranger - come on. Variations on these frauds have been around since 1980 and...

Mobility scooters don't travel at speed on roads. they are more stable than pushbikes (and yes, I've seen people 'walking' their dog while riding a bike and marveled at the dog's docility! Any dog I've owned would have had me off the bike in very short order - a sniff to sniff, stopping...

The most stupid, laziest and most dangerous way to walk your dog, let alone dogs. The danger to the dogs is obvious. The owner is also in danger, since s/he's distracted. One of the many benefits of owning a dog is taking the dog for a walk - spending quality time with the dog AND as an...

Exercise is important for your immediate health and well-being, though I have serious trouble doing any exercise for exercise's sake. If nothing else, it seems such a Grim Duty - how often I have ridden along a shared bike path/walkway and seen people EXERCISING with grim expressions of...

My objection is to the 'warning' period - these drivers are being caught doing something illegal and driving to the danger of others. I don't care if they write themselves off the planet, but it is so rarely they suffer the fatal or debilitating effects of their stupidity. The fact so many...

I admit, I don't think we need to import hatred and bigotry - but I also believe in 'Free Speech'. The frightening thing is the number of people who are willing to believe the bigotry, who adopt the hatred of fascism and racism. I can't understand anybody wanting to listen to people like...
