    Shocking paint attack at Bunnings leaves woman furious—who's to blame for her ruined car?

    Were the cleaning materials offered free of cost? That was the least Bunnings could have done. Has any thought been given to identifying the vehicle that ran over the paint tin with a view to claiming damages against the driver?

    What is atrial fibrillation, the heart condition US President Joe Biden lives with?

    Well that's one thing Joe and I have in common. Pulse 200bpm when first diagnosed a year ago. Two stents, two blood-thinners since.

    Do you know about the 'shady' fee for using cash at Australia Post?

    It is nonsensical for a charge to be levied by the organisation issuing the bill - it is not handling the cash!

    Coles' new 'Smart Gates' allegedly crush shopper: ‘Yes, it hurt’

    Get rid of self-service and shoplifting will drop. Will we see airport-type body scanners next?

    Here’s what happens to your penis as you age

    What about the clitoris? Anecdotal evidence is that it increases in size and sensitivity with age.

    Zero alcohol doesn’t mean zero risk – how marketing and blurred lines can be drinking triggers

    Some writers will invent anything for a story! I have adapted to non-alcoholic beer and find no detrimental effects, nor have I seen any evidence that its presence encourages youngsters to consume the real thing. Imaginative nonsense....

    Tesla driver's ‘failed’ cable cover-up sparks outrage online

    As I've been saying since this EV obsession began, plug-in systems are an obtrusive hopeless, expensive, concept. If we must have EVs, let them be only hybrids with on-board ICE engine chargers.

    Why do I bruise so easily? Could it be something serious?

    So, if I'm permanently on prednisolone, coupled with gingko biloba and Vitamin E (250mg) and a family history of purpura, I could be in trouble.

    The move to a cashless society isn’t just a possibility, it’s well underway

    Heaven help charities, small club raffles and other small payments which require cash! Nobody seems to give them a thought.

    Centrelink users express outrage over long wait times: ‘You're on your own pretty much’

    Not only Centrelink, but banks and other large organisations perform (or don't) similarly. I waited 45 minutes on the phone to a bank the other day, and gave up! Three minutes was the expected wait time when I was working. Current standards are disgraceful.

    Shoppers bid goodbye to supermarket frustrations with checkout update

    This is a time-saver? I don't think so. Can't we stick to traditional mathods we understand?

    Does eating this fruit lower your dementia risk?

    Controversial driving move by ute driver divides opinion

    In SA it is permitted to cross double lines to overtake a cyclist, provided it is safe to do do. The ute driver is completely in the wrong, exhibiting the impatience which causes so many collisions.

    The items Aussies are removing from their grocery lists just to save

    This has been escalating steadily, despite supermarket fibs of "down, down". Butter and cheese are among the worst examples. What really gets my goat is price one week doubles the next and drops back again the following week, e.g. Jordans granola can be $4.25, shoot up to $12, next it can be $8...
