My grandfather once rode his horse into the pub in Wickepin post WW1 and ordered two beers at the bar. The barman served them, they both drank their beers, and they left without any kerfuffle.

Call that long. Try reading a book. It is possible to keep an eye on expenses while enjoying your time too.

How about when the closest grandparents work longer hrs (55 wk, renting in early 50s with two working sons - and a girlfriend - house sharing ) than the parents, the other working grandies 2 hrs away, and one set of recently semi-retired great-grandies live 2.5hrs away. So the parents (in their...

There's actually quite a club of celebs now that aren't 'blinded by the light'.

What they never seem to mention in these articles is that the supermarkets took over as ATMs years ago. Don't most get their cash out at the supermarket now? Are these considered in the downturn figures.? Btw, plenty of businesses can still operate without power. They write it down like they...

'The maximum full Age Pension for a single person is $1149 per fortnight, and for a couple, it's $1732.20 as of March 20, 2025.' Everything always quotes the maximum age pension. I'd like to know the average age pension. We're getting $410 below the max prob due to deeming rates on our downsize...

The claims range from 18 years ago to last year. I can't see where you've got the 40 years from. His hits began 65 years ago, he was vice-president of Motown in the 90s. so he's 67 to 84 yrs old in the claim period. It'll be interesting but I expect he'll be outed like Cosby, Harris and Randy Andy.

I wonder if that tariff will also apply to the streamers, to tv series, docos, non-fiction, etc?

Clearly banks should absorb it as, with their massive profits, they're the ones most able to. There is another option not mentioned. Ban cards: all cards. Go back to money. That way the banks are forced to absorb the handling cost and folks can't run up debt so easily.

Prison has never been a deterrent, just a training ground for more organised crime and drug pushers. What they need is bigger and better rehabilitation program funding instead of locking up a further 5000, but voters always fall for the simplistic strongarm stupidity. It's just politics.

Manchester football club might not like being associated via SDC's use of the photo either. It's not the quiet party or the pub, or even the poor old swastika, which is just a misused, reversed Hindu symbol, it's the heinous policies of the BM movement (racism, anti-immigration, militarism...

Interesting it's not copping any screaming about horse drug like the propaganda that hit Ivermectin.

Possibly the safest Labor seat in Australia and she'll do nothing to change that.

USE CASH!!!

I admit I haven't watched much ABC current affairs since it came under the influence of Murdochspeak but 4 Corners does still break some good stories on occasion. This one simply puts forward 2 sides of the old debate, is it glorifying war or commemmorating the fallen. I tend towards the former...

Jean Marsh was always a solid actor in the many films and shows in which she appeared. I didn't realise she was also the instigator of Upstairs Downstairs or The House of Elliott, the latter being one of my favourite tv dramas of the 90s. What a remarkably talented woman.

Had the 1st three since my 20s!

Well, various flies and mozzies don't appear to be decreasing. Could barely open yr mouth for the flies in the lower SW WA last summer. On the other hand, have barely seen a Xmas beetle in years. In my youth in the 70s, they arrived in large swarms every summer. We used to have competitions...
