    This Surprising Habit, Not Price, Keeps Aussie Shoppers Loyal to Big Supermarkets – Are You One of Them?

    Interesting analysis, possibly true for the younger people. The choice of where you shop here in North Queensland is taken away from us due to duopoly rein of Woollies and Coles. IGA is optional but more costly. Being from Europe, IGA is a go to for items not available at duopoly. I used to shop...

    How to Get Rid of Ants in Your Home

    Ah the peppermint oil. Good to know it repeals ants. Rats ate some wiring under the bonnet of my car and Mr Google advises peppermint oil to spray around there. Must get some soon.

    A Most Elaborate Scam - AFP Impersonation

    Makes you wonder whether the scammers pay someone at that company to pass on the mailing list or it is an actual employee themselves. Same for all the AuPost and Temu and McAfee etc.

    De-Feeting Plantar: The Tech Guy – Dr Al

    This is plantar fasciitis and it’s management from the male perspective. For women it is even cheaper. Find a pair of shoes with a wedge heel and wear them to shift the weight onto the front of foot. If insisting on going barefoot, you must walk on your toes. There is some folklore about wearing...

    How to relief joint pain natural remedies

    My experience with osteoarthritis is similar to Tererese. Having had it since my mid thirties, I’ve naturally tried it all until I realised that when it’s painful, take meds (antiinflammatories) and scale down exercise to whatever level is acceptable at the time. When the joint or joints...

    Fridge faux pas: Critics challenge mum's bread and meat storage methods

    I make my own bread, 3 loaves at the time. 2 loaves into the freezer, one loaf into the fridge. Slice off what you need and pop in the toaster, the rest goes back. In NQ, we keep more food stuffs in the fridge. Meat is always on a tray/plate to avoid leakage.

    Someone under my bed

    I had monsters in the wardrobe coz there wasn’t enough room under the bed. It’s a normal development phase in a child’s life, around 3-4 years old. The Irish never grow out of it, obviously.
