    Hackers take over government screens, airs strange Trump-Musk footage

    I really don't understand your attitude. I was under the impression that Seniors Discount Club was a forum where seniors could debate and share information with a reasonable expectation of being treated with respect. We're all adults after all. Politics is my thing. I love the intricacies of it...

    Hackers take over government screens, airs strange Trump-Musk footage

    Well, thank you very much MaccaMan! You have literally stolen all the stuff I was going to say! 😂 Seriously though, you forgot the $5.1m in aid to Haiti. Funny thing is, it never got there. Somehow or other, it ended up in the pocket of Chelsea Clinton, daughter of Bill and Hillary. It bought...

    Woolworths teams up with bakery company for game-changing Easter treat

    Sorry, but what does my comment about creeping Americanisation in advertising and food have to do with Trump? As a retired medical professional however, I'll say this: diagnosing someone with one or more medical conditions to get a laugh, isn't funny. I don't like Donald Trump, but I find all...

    Woolworths teams up with bakery company for game-changing Easter treat

    Every time I hear this, I say to my long suffering husband, 'Don't we have any actors here who could have done this job?' This creeping Americanisation of our culture sickening.

    You will not believe what this stranger did after a family's car got hit!

    I always wait until the perpetrator leaves before I put a note on the vehicle. In the old days when cars had the weathershields on the two front passenger windows, people often left their windows down a little bit. It was then easy to slip a note into the car.

    ‘The most agonising pain a person could endure’: Experts rank the most unbearable pain

    I have fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis in most of my joints, including my entire spine. I would disagree with the finding that fibromyalgia pain is worse than arthritis. I have very small hands and I often look at my fingers and wonder how something so small could generate so much pain. My...

    Woman sues famous transportation app after series of discriminatory treatment

    It's a little known fact that adherents of the world's fastest growing religion hate dogs. They regard them as unclean and would not want them in their vehicles. My husband was a crossing guard at our local primary school and it greatly amused him to watch the steps - no pun intended - taken by...

    ‘I'll slit your f******* throat’: Classroom chaos as furious parent storms school

    Our granddaughter is a sweet, quiet child, whose two favourite things are animals and sunsets. Around 18 months ago, she suddenly refused to go to school. She was in Year 8 at a state high school in NSW. The friendship group she'd had since Kindergarten told her she was no longer welcome in...

    'You don’t need to be racist': Heated exchange in public car park caught on tape

    God preserve us from going in the direction of America where a person's race and political affiliation are the standard by which they are judged.

    You will not believe what this stranger did after a family's car got hit!

    I've seen multiple incidents like this and if I've been able to get the numberplate, I've always let the driver of the damaged car know. It would never enter my head to do otherwise. What the hell is wrong with people today?!

    This Model's Olive Oil Trick Might Make You Look Years Younger - Take a Guess at Her Age!

    My forehead is completely smooth. My care worker and I had fun the other day with me trying to frown. I've never been able to frown. My cheeks are smooth, I have no wrinkles whatever. I have very fine lines at the corners of my eyes, which are hidden by my glasses, and fine lines on my top lip...

    Is This SDC's First Couple?

    Ccongratulations guys! I can now put faces to the names of two sparring partners. We don't always disagree, but it's good mental exercise when we do. I hope you'll have a great life together. All the best.

    ‘Not in the spirit of sport’: Peter Dutton backs bold new stance in explosive interview

    Oh dear, where do I start?! Back in 2016, the mere thought of Donald Trump as president of the US was horrifying. And then I started thinking. If all the mainstream media outlets are singing from the same hymn sheet, for the first time ever, and they're all turning themselves inside out to...

    ‘Not in the spirit of sport’: Peter Dutton backs bold new stance in explosive interview

    There was a kerfuffle in Queensland a couple of years ago caused by a netball team in a women's competition. It had at least one biological male player. I'm not sure what became of that situation.

    Is Medicare on the brink of collapse? See how it can affect senior care soon

    Nailed it! I was nursing in the emergency ward at St George Hospital in Sydney from 1972. There was a war in Lebanon around that time and the Australian government was bringing in refugees from the area. Our workload increased considerably, not just because of the extra numbers. The reasons...
