    Woman recounts 'intimidating' car park experience in local Woolworths

    There's a hell of a difference between an innocent, appreciative, whistle directed at a pretty girl passing by - and the DELIBERATE and INTIMIDATING catcalling that is typical of a MOB of defectives surrounding a target and closing in on her/him.

    Waiting game: Senior's hospital ordeal exposes system strain amidst healthcare capacity crisis

    Yes, you can. If you have private health insurance, the ambulance will take you to a private hospital (often the one of your choice) if that hospital has an emergency department. That happened to me on two occasions.

    I rang Compare Club, and they found me a very much cheaper alternative energy provider. Looks like I've made the right move, too as my first electricity bill is considerably lower than before.
