Good looking, talented, successful ... gone too soon, RIP

I am sitting here on the lounge, tablet in hand, and right now am reluctant to move. I have puppy Bonnie asleep on my legs, and, puppy Clyde asleep on my lap. They are better than any hot water bottle you could ever use. I dont spend more than 2 or 3 hours away from these 2, and, I wouldn't have...

I wasn't aware my comments were argumentative, if so, that was not my intention, so, no pistols as 40 paces i hope. Even after 24 years I still have my tender spots. Something else for me to work on i suppose. Congratulations on your sobriety. It's a wonderful accomplishment.

Would you tell an alcoholic or drug addict to have some self control? The lack of understanding is obvious of how harmful this addiction can, in itself, be a catalyst for hard falls to come .The object here is awareness. I'll put it out there and declare myself to be a compulsive gambler in...

The article talks about the effect of poker machines on young people. Next time you are near one, take a bit if time and watch the kids on those claw machines. Some con mum/dad out of a number of gold coins on the quest for a chocolate that might cost less that a dollar. When you see this...

I used to date one of those in my younger stupid days.

Sometimes you need to be cruel to be kind. The niece needs some home truths. Quality work need not sacrifice creativity. Her response to your suggestions can be translated to ... I could not be bothered. As far as the sister in law is concerned, suggest she becomes the main model for her baby...

Took the words right out of my mouth. Stupid idea.

Yes. In my neck of the woods, I tap on at point of departure, then off at destination. That has to happen every trip. Pensioners and senior card holders can apply for a gold card to have a daily cap near the $3 mark. In the days of old, one paid for a one way or return ticket and had to clutch...

I have lost a husband and 2 siblings to different forms of cancer. I have a niece with bowel cancer, still with me, but very ill. I have one brother-in-law lost and one in recovery from prostate cancer. How good would it be if some genius found a way to have one test that detects any kind of...

I was reading this story and feeling a certain amount of outrage until I read that the gentleman is indigenous. The network available to this man is vast. Why is he not receiving the support that is out there? One can only wonder why it seems his own are not giving him the means to stop these...

Even if you use a will kit, make it your priority to create a will. Initially, hubby and I used a kit, and, it was sufficient because of it's simplicity. Then, as we worked and saved and amassed property, we realised a formal will through the solicitor was paramount. Not only that, one has to...

I was a Modern Family viewer. Good show. Julie was pretty good. Glad she has her health under control.

Nobody helped my hubby and I when we were starting out. Mind you, we had a reasonably priced wedding, didn't care about a fancy honeymoon, watched every cent, and, worked hard to get forward step by step whilst living in a one room shed. We survived such an inconvenience. So many young folk...

My older sister was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. She undertook treatment as the doctors directed, however, she also changed the way she was living. After some research, she decided to go on a Rainbow Diet. As the name suggests, she ate food that came under the colours of the rainbow...

A good looking man with a doggie. Irresistible.

Social media sookie lah lah's. It's not a case of being made to drink the coffee out of the holder. As the saying goes...necessity is the mother of invention. Good on them.

Holy cow. I wouldn't know how to time a fraction of a second. Does this mean there was a police man perched on top of the billboard with a high speed camera ... I haven't heard of such a thing. Totally ridiculous. I hope you challenged that one.

Only last night, my sister and I were talking about how we BEHAVED OURSELVES when in public. Mum had us totally under control. This new age thinking of letting your child be free and expressive is a load of twaddle. We were told, sit still and wait for your food to come ... we did. We were...

I was given this kind of information referring to level 4 by someone in Aged Care, not a provider. It's all about money and the way funds are allocated.
