Alas, fake reviews are part and parcel of the internet world.One only say, try the product out for yourself.If it comes up to scratch then negative reviews could be beneficial to the business.

There should be a procedure in place where an initial instance is recorded and thereafter the matter goes to official arbitration.The Law has to be just and fair.Too often it isn't and legal process is used as a weapon.

Problem is if you employ a solicitor,the fees may outweigh the penalty.

My wife is 75 yo and still works for Ventia.The lady should apply for a job with them. It'll be cleaning but its a job and pays.

These increases are a joke.They go nowhere near compensating for the C.O.L that's taken place since the last time the pension was lifted.It's a total furphy when you consider bracket creep which means more and more pensioners run the danger of having to pay tax.Especially if they have a...

Food trucks have been in Australia for ages.

If you've plenty of friends around you,then you obviously don't need the social interaction.Not everybody has that so they meet their mates at the pub.

I think there should be an open inquiry into the function of hotels not just as purveyors of beer but as centres of social interaction,vital to maintaining good mental health. That aspect of going down to the local has been completely ignored

Looks like I'll be hitting the bi-carb .Don't tell me that'll be a problem😕

There's nothing wrong with some reinforcement of a well known fact. I'm 84, acting and writing novels.But you have to keep fit.

A bit concerning as I take Nexium for GORD.An article on alternatives would be handy.

The problem in my view is that the educational system-especially the Humanities has been infiltrated by the Far left.I came face to face with them when I was a tutor/lecturer in Drama at the university of Newcastle,NSW back in the 1990's.The Sociology Dept tried a takeover of the Drama dept and...

I trust these noise rules will apply to bikie gangs?

What is not mentioned is the effect the increase has on your tax liabilities. The tax free threshold of $18200 has not increased in at least three years.So,although the purchasing power of your pension has gone backwards,your tax liability goes UP. It also affects the calculation of the low...

My wife and I were shocked to find we pay TAX on our pension because our small part-time jobs push us into another tax bracket.So,to begin with our pension is reduced by 50c/dollar over the allowance of $300 f/night on top of the normal pension rate.That's tax number one.Then we pay tax again...

Regrettably, the 'extra' money is given with one hand and taken away with the other through increased tax payable due to bracket creep. The basic tax free amount of income has been $18,200 for at least 4 years.Inflation has been taking place at approx-give or take - 3% pa.which means that if you...

Good point.

Makes you wonder why ratepayers keep voting them in.

Agreed.$90k pa from all of those p/t hustles is fanciful in my view. I use Pure Profile and I collect cans for the wardrobe mistress of a theatre company. But even with video calls at $60 a pop at what? 3-4/mth? To earn $90k she wouldn't have time for her full time job or any recreational...

On a sombre note,will we see Gloria Jeans going into administration anytime soon? I doubt it. As a nation we appear to be addicted to the convenience of technology. At the price of human social interaction.
