    No toilets, no dignity—here's why an older traveller was forced to wet herself mid-flight

    Have you not got anyone who could bring wood in for you. That's a real shame. I would if I lived near you. Gosh it is an easy thing for a neighbour to do. It's terrible to think people are going cold when there is actually an easy fix!

    Forced to choose between eating or heating: Inside the shocking energy trap leaving pensioners in the cold

    The cost of living crisis is hitting right across the board and has for quite some time and is only going to get worse. State and federal governments have no idea how to bring it under control and there is only so much budgeting you can do with limited funds and rising costs. I hate to think...

    When finances collide with family milestones, what's the best way to respond to this predicament?

    You have certainly got yourself in good there and your brother is not doing right by you at all. Usually though a credit card is only in one person's name but another person can have a card linked to the account. It is the name the credit card is in who is actually accountable for the debt...

    That's what my ex and and my former best friend tried to tell me was happening when I caught them walking down the street in Singapore holding hands. They thought I came down in the last shower.

    Are you paying too much for breakfast? Outrage erupts over shocking cafe prices!

    That looks a much more reasonable priced menu and would have people coming back time and time again. $35.00 is definitely a bit rich and they will end up closing their doors I reckon eventually.

    I think it is a problem in every state and territory of Australia. Ambulance ramping is at it's worst here in WA and the premier was trying to deny it for months. Talk about bury your head in the sand. Not going to make any ground with that sort of attitude. A racetrack is of far more...

    Locals stood tall against McDonald’s—and showed the power of community isn’t lost

    No wonder we have an obesity problem. And straight from school plenty of students go to McDonald's. I take my grandchildren for a treat every 4 to 6 weeks but wonder how many of those kids go daily. Alot of money to waste on junk food.
