    Fewer councillors, more money? Why this local government wants to slash 60 councillors

    The music world loses a legend: Grammy winner dies in tragic plane crash

    I had a southern girl partner in Arkansas USA where I lived with her for a while. She told me that Country and Western songs always had someone dying or someone with a broken heart in the words, and that it was crying music. So she used to turn it off on the radio whenever it came on. LOLOL

    Fluffy Soda Water Scones

    Yes, I know what the soda water does, it makes the finished scone light and fluffy. I make my own potato scallops with a batter of soda water, baking soda and self-raising flour. It ends up coating the potato slices like tempura.

    "Legal distinction between nudity and lewd behaviour" How is he going to pull that one off? Is he going to interview everyone? There's going to be weirdoes out there perving or causing trouble with those who are genuine nudists. Maybe this Frenchman should stick to collecting frogs for dinner.

    Four million Aussies could be renting until they die—will you be one of them?

    Yep. I met a guy in Western Sydney when I was building an extension to the house of his dad. He was recently divorced from a drug addict woman who was a heroin junkie. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get the kids off her. The Family Law Court stood their ground against him and made him...
