    ‘Not a pleasant thing’: Princess Kate reportedly ‘struggles’ as she proceeds with cancer treatment

    I am appalled at the way the media hound public figures. The way people carried on about the photo Kate edited, as if there was some kind of conspiracy to deceive people, was ridiculous. Now it’s her cancer treatment that’s the latest gossip. It’s nobody’s business what is going on in someone’s...

    American faces backlash for attacking Australians on healthcare: ‘Nothing is free’

    I would never complain about our health system. We are very lucky in this country. Too many people still going to emergency departments for treatment that could be provided in a clinic though.

    Parked vehicle with 'fake' disabled badge causes concern among Aussie drivers

    In SA there is insufficient disability parking at most places. It is also hard when most are not undercover & the extra time it takes to transfer someone into a wheelchair leave people soaking wet by the time they enter the shopping centre, if it’s raining.

    Parked vehicle with 'fake' disabled badge causes concern among Aussie drivers

    I use a disability permit when transporting my friend with a wheelchair. Space is needed to get her in & out of the vehicle. That is the purpose of these carparks.

    Neighbour's request leaves Aussie homeowner 'shaking and fuming'

    True, people get so worked up over petty things . No need to put it on social media either. Compromise & understanding on both sides is needed.

    See the controversial playground rule that's catching pet owners off guard!

    We don’t have a dog, however they are part of your family when you do have one. Most people are responsible with their dogs & this rule is ridiculous. I think dogs should remain outside fenced playgrounds though & be kept a few metres away if unfenced.

    Woolworths announces major update on Direct To Boot Service—is your local store affected?

    I recently used this service twice when not feeling 100% & found it very good. I had been unwell with a migraine the day before on one occasion & was still affected by bright light & noise. I only had to drive 2 mins to the shops & was home again within 10 mins.

    Senior swindles $400K by telling ‘very sophisticated’ lies about cancer, family tragedy

    My partner‘s sister stole $65K from their mother & shoved her in a nursing home. She had early signs of dementia. She also lied to a lawyer saying her aunt who was power of attorney had died. This was BS. A lot more to the story, but she got away with it. Criminal charges should be brought...

    Passport price hike puts Aussie travel plans in a spin: Here's how to dodge passport fee fiasco!

    I agree. Travel insurance, especially after the Covid debacle is essential. I haven’t had a passport since 1983. We are saving a little bit at a time to maybe go somewhere. Not Sure if I can just apply for a passport without knowing where I’m going???
