    That's really nice and will come in handy for them and will be gathering interest in the meantime as well.

    The medicinal cannabis gold rush that's got doctors worried—and what it means for you

    It's well known that tumeric powder is great for inflammation just must be activated with black pepper. I have that and ginger every day in my smoothie and although I don't have any specific pain, prevention is better than cure. Walking definitely helps as well, the old saying move it or lose it...

    Calls for Australia to follow England's ban on supermarket junk food specials

    At the end of the day, the taxpayer pays for the obesity problem so it is all of our problem and needs to be addressed. No point burying our heads in the sand about this either.

    Calls for Australia to follow England's ban on supermarket junk food specials

    You look in the weekly specials brochures for coles and Woolworths and the majority of food specials is for junk and the unhealthy processed foods. They could and should do alot better. It's all very well saying it's up to the consumer but when every penny counts the cheaper option plus the one...

    3,000 banks gone! Here’s what it really means for your money

    I think it's a disgrace when you can't access your own money and who can cancel your account except yourself. What is this world coming to. It is dreadful when people have to travel for considerable distances to find their bank now. It should not have been allowed to happen.

    Fuel running low: Could Australia shut down within 30 days?

    Australia is always the last country to use common sense in these issues and waits until we have a problem, oops then thinks perhaps they should do something about it. Nothing like burying your head in the sand. We have had so many problems with supply issues that have been of their hands and...

    Do you think it's fair for your grandchild to spend on this?

    Different cultures do do things differently but tbe way this is written is very misleading to start with. It sounds like she is being 100% supported by her parents. But at the same time the gift was stipulated to be for the grandaughter and the father had no right to spend it in my opinion...

    The hidden ATMs helping criminals launder millions: Why Australia is about to ban these machines

    I was the same when I saw one here in Perth in our tiny shopping centre at the Vale in Canning Vale. Wondered what the hell it was doing there and who on earth would use it.

    Aussie blokes still failing handwashing test—but here's who's getting it right

    Likewise and there are alot of them. I am always amazed. I thought it was mostly men, sorry guys but not necessarily. I am so pleased my ex is gone on that front, he was one of the worst and yet my grandies are one of the best. They have been brought up to wash their hands after playing, when...

    TV host's shingles nightmare could have been prevented—and yours can be too

    I had it as soon as they lowered the age for it free. One of the worst injections I have ever had both times for after effects but definitely worth it. I don't want shingles. Anyone who hasn't had ut should definitely consider going and getting it in my book.

    ALDI's Christmas seafood bonanza returns with prices that haven't budged since 2022

    So if these prices can be maintained for three years why can't everything else? It does make you wonder!

    From past panics to new shortages, another grocery scramble hits supermarket shelves

    I only buy sweet potatoes anyway but what's the bet the price of them goes up as well!

    Shrinking truth: Why you're not as tall as you used to be

    Unfortunately a fact of life that happens to us all, but we don't notice it to ourselves, just other people. I remember my mum saying years ago have you noticed your Dad is getting shorter. I said no but you are. She had always been taller than me and now was the same height. She was shocked...

    I like the Kapati ice cream raspberry and white chocolate you can get from Aldi. Last time I bought it, it was $6,50 and they have several flavours but I only buy it about once a year.
