Hmmm, After having a ponder, I have come to this conclusion. Springsteen and DeNiro are indeed successful in their chosen profession. Despite their wealth and success, they have a right to voice their opinion no more, or less, than Mr/Mrs average. The main difference is they have a ready made...

Might have been a case of being off the chart.

Oh dear. I have to say I don't know the singer. Who does he know to get that gig? The song is more a reject act from Australia's got Talent. I remember the year Guy Sebastian was our representative. He was his usual superb self. Dami Im should have been given more recognition for her song...it...

Well. I am compelled to report my experience of GOOD customer service today. For the purpose of getting a quote to insure my home, I went to my main bank (Greater). Today, unfortunately they couldn't get me a better deal on insurance but were OK with me saying so. The lovely young lady did give...

I hope your niece gets through her treatment OK. Support from people who you love means the world.

Good on her. I have never been a traveller...don't even have a passport. However, I can appreciate the wonderlust hitting her the way it did. My solo trip now is coffee shop on my own, or, lunch out on my own. I am nackered after that.

I think this is hilarious. It is a protrusion that dead set has the face of a mouse. But it is not a mouse. This is right up there with people seeing the face of Jesus in coffee foam.

The same company is probably selling tickets to the crocs for the next smorgasboard.

My husband planed the top of his fingers off when were were putting the floor boards down on our first home. Holy cow ... I thought he had hit an artery the amount of blood that came gushing out. In the end, nothing vital was chopped off. He just spent the rest of his life with fingers that had...

When my husband was in ICU, I had my first taste of how much it cost for parking when you MUST visit every day, sometimes multiple times each day. I had contact with the welfare person based in the hospital who was amazing. She organised a special voucher that assists people who are visiting...

My hubby and I managed to save toward our future quite well. We worked on the 3/3/3 system. Use one third of your income for weekly expenses, say groceries, entertainment, schools putting their hand out constantly...etc. One third of income for regular, more substantial expenses..such as...

I find most places pretty good. However, I am a conventional shopper. So, for me, the most attentive team currently is Priceline pharmacy followed by Bunnings. The worst of recent times was Harvey Norman. I could have shot a cannon in the store to see if anyone was awake. Some years ago, the...

Yeah. I'd like to be 5ft 8in .... that's not going to happen. Not the best question to ask an ego maniac.

Perhaps, however, if they travelled by air, a child seat is not a practical thing to include in the luggage. Holiday destinations should be ready to see to the needs of visitors and/or tourists. I think the problem with all of this carry on is more about how the restaurant handled the situation...

When I was reading this I was totally on the side of the restaurant except for one point. If the expectation is tell your child to sit and stay, there should be a child's seat provided. He is not a trained puppy. At that age a seat, with restraint, is essential. It's a holiday city and...

I think Nigella is Black Cumin. So much out there...don't know if I'm Cumin or going.

Give the bank desk jockeys the job of telling the kids ... no more tooth fairy, no more piggy bank, no more pocket money...and...then tell everyone ... no money at all when the system crashes.

I had a beautiful dog that was willed to me by my late sister. She didn't know her fur baby had a heart murmer and suffered fits. I was given the choice of medication, however, made it my business to do a full check of side effects. At the time, it was a fine line between certain side effects...

I have never fed Maggie's, cockies or kookas. We live near a reserve and see them all the time. Since we moved in here, there have been daily visits by native doves. We have no yard, but they seem to like our outside deck. It started off with Fred and Wilma. Then their juveniles, then Barney and...

I told my family years ago that I don't want a mum's day gift, or for that matter, any special occasion gift. I really don't need more stuff. So, every year, my lovely daughter-in-law puts on a nice breakfast at their home, and my granddaughter practices her calligraphy on a lovely card. Really...
