    Why your grandkids are now loving the 'daggy' store you never expected to see again

    Probably have another look. I've always thought they were fashionable, but not cheap! Have you got Suzanne Grae? Same company who owns both.

    Why your grandkids are now loving the 'daggy' store you never expected to see again

    I'm pleased it's still owned by the Aussie lady. I've never thought of it being a daggy store though. I like their sleepwear and it's great to buy when on sale.

    Those childhood toys stuck in your house could be worth a fortune—but finding them will cost you

    I had to throw out my old childhood dollhouse that my father made for me when I was little. Nobody wanted it due to the lead paint.

    Fine China Sets

    I've have lots of them from my mother, grandmother and great grandmother. Some I use all the time, like a few small pretty bowls being Hammersley & Co, James Kent Ltd and Royal Winton. They're good for holding my tea strainer. The sad thing is English bone china isn't worth much these days...

    Rooibos tea offers long-term health benefits

    I've been told it does have side effects if you drink too much ie. can raise estrogen with women who can be hormone sensitive with breast cancer.

    Royal reunion: Prince Harry's joyful five words signal the end of a family feud

    Not sure if anyone has seen Meghan's 'with love' show on Netflix. Man ... it's dull as dishwater. I looked forward to watching Chrissy Teigen on it. However, she seemed to have trouble remembering her kid's birthday dates. 😒 It's a no for me to watch it again.

    There's always a bully to contend with like that.

    'Was I unreasonable for bringing my own food to a wedding?'

    The issue with being a celiac or having a dairy allergy, is people can't dine out due to cross contamination. It's no laughing matter for them.

    Recent visa changes raise concerns for Australians living and working in foreign countries

    I'm pleased my son isn't over there anymore, but I know of other friend's sons and daughters over there. My take on it? I think Trump enjoys getting in the news and being in the limelight.

    Recent visa changes raise concerns for Australians living and working in foreign countries

    No big deal. My son was on a P-1A visa years ago before Trump. He was glad to come home on the off season. If Aussies don't want a visa, then they can get a US Citizenship. Many do, as they work over there or go to college, or meet the 'love of their life' and stay there.

    Ballet star who made us fall in love with dance has taken his final bow at 89

    Oh my! Bone cancer from ballet? How awful for you enduring 4 operations. Pleased those surgeons removed it all for you. I thought getting my knee cartilage removed at 13 yrs due to netball was awful for me.

    Ballet star who made us fall in love with dance has taken his final bow at 89

    Sad to hear, and he had a good life. A few ex pro ballet friends that I know have paid the price with their feet though.

    Matchsticks

    I must admit, I preferred cream buns. They had real cream in those days.
