    When a small business owner said ‘no’ to a social media personality’s demands—and the internet cheered

    My first response here would be to write a review about those abnormal practices. I would suggest you are not the first person to fall foul of this practice. Other ladies need to be made aware so they can say 'No Thankyou' at any stage for something not wanted & perhaps query treatment at...

    Not so simple anymore: The smart TV revolution meets its match

    S.D.C. you got me thinking l'd like to invest in one of these t.v.'s because they are exactly what we could easily work at home & do not like modern equipment either. My enthusiasm soon ran out when I read they are currently only available in Korea. How dare you do this to me & like minded...

    Joke No phones allowed

    When l was doing my apprenticeship at the Railway Workshops in Midland W.A. we were allowed 8 minutes. That was from your work place, to the toilet block, do your business & return. Take any longer & my Foreman would be on my back. [aresole]. Sometimes the toilet manager was asleep, you didn't...

    Peanut Butter Cookies and Gingernut Biscuits

    Two of my favourite biscuits as a kid when mum made them. When we were younger home cooked biscuits were all we got & they didn't last in the cookie tin either.

    Plan to abandon alpine road maintenance prompts fears of tourism hit

    10% of $1 billion for the region through tourism seems to be an excellent reason to maintain these roads, even if they aren't done for the local population. The Council would still have change from 10% of $1 billion after spending $86,000 for 31 km of road maintenance, so l fail to see the...

    Revolutionary wetsuits pass tough Aussie tests—could save lives in our waters

    If the new suits stop severe blood loss for a diver bitten by a shark l believe these would have proven themselves. Broken bones can be mended but severe blood loss = shock & possible loss of life.

    Why Australian drivers are seeing red over blinding SUV feature

    When l passed my Driver's licence in 1969, one of the first things l was taught with night driving was to turn my focus to the left side of the road when approaching another vehicle. I still have enough focus of the approaching vehicle but not enough to be dazzled by the headlights. With today's...

    Growing crisis puts postal workers' safety in spotlight

    Please excuse me if l misunderstand, but how does a Postie putting your mail into a small crack into your letterbox instead of the large slot equate to accidents? Is the Postie aware that there is a pull -down handle, which is not a regular attachment to all letterboxes? [Is this chrome perhaps...

    From 45 minutes to 15: The onion trick every retiree needs to know

    Good tip for those Bunnings sausage sizzles where caramelised onion is needed in a large quantity & in quick time, 13 minutes as opposed to 45 minutes to cook these with bi-carb.

    Age-defying journey challenges what parenthood can look like

    I would suggest that the only way he could get it up is with a Penile Implant where he could control this action himself. [no longer a natural event for him].

    Glass found in a food jar you probably have in your pantry—check yours now

    Would l be correct in saying notification on the SDC CLUB of recalls is dependant on when SDC are notified by a Company of the need to recall a product, item etc? Don't blame SDC if this type of notification isn't immediate, please.

    Comedian Dave Hughes proves laughter isn't always the best medicine—but his fighting spirit certainly helps

    I saw this myself in a recent hospital stay. Staff walking past a patient's room several times as the annoying noise persisted. My thought was that staff ignored it because they weren't assigned to the patient on the day. I questioned what l believed was from a patient's room & was told by the...

    Never say your number out loud—this story shows why

    At my G.P.'s practice, as one example where those details are on record, patients are asked if their mobile number ends in *** only.

    Well stated Suzanne rose. Like you Suzanne rose, l don't get ads & l believe the small yearly membership payment is better than buying a daily newspaper for the enjoyment the SDC SITE gives me.
