    Great Aussie buffet bonanza: When KFC let you fill your boots for $13

    thank you VET I didn't know about the use of your seniors card . OH yes politeness and smiles go a long way and I even thank people who give me a real smile. They often get a shock at my thanks and sometimes makes their smile even bigger.

    Million-dollar contracts don't always mean million-dollar payouts: Inside Australia's entertainment industry shakeup

    what people like these get paid is obscene. Absolutely NO-ONE deserves this sort of money especially people who only sit at a desk and yak.

    Great Aussie buffet bonanza: When KFC let you fill your boots for $13

    I don't mind the KGC 3 piece meal with the coleslaw and mash as it gives a well balanced meal but I can't see the sense of chips plus mash. I must admit I'm only buying for myself

    Please Guy listen to your body. I understand what you are saying more than you would know. Please be kind to your body, give it plenty of rest and not so much movement in your shows. People will understand. Have loved you since your Afro days and still do. I hope this is your last hiccup. XXX

    Gestetner machines

    the technology that replaced what we used is ridiculous. So many of us has no idea what it's all about. I even use my computer like my old electric typewriter except this blasted computer constantly plays up and I have no idea how to fix it. We certainly had more brains than the current lots...

    Great Aussie buffet bonanza: When KFC let you fill your boots for $13

    I have a fair idea as a dear friend works there. I began buying from them over 20 years ago and the quality is still the same. I can't fault it. Other takeaways don't show how they prepare their food. I haven't been buying all these years but started buying again about 4 months ago which is...

    Great Aussie buffet bonanza: When KFC let you fill your boots for $13

    I now used LiteNEasy. If you are on a package deal it costs next to nothing. If you don't have a big appetite you can get a size to suit you.

    When finances collide with family milestones, what's the best way to respond to this predicament?

    I've never owned a credit card but I think, like it or not, pay it out and close it.

    Hospital pneumonia kills Wollongong man waiting for aged care bed

    I think your beautiful husband knows what I'm like. Having been born with club feet and my Mum being told I'd never walk I soon discovered that the words "I CAN'T" are not in my dictionary. 💋 :p. Please give my love to N and tell him he is definitely missed

    Great Aussie buffet bonanza: When KFC let you fill your boots for $13

    I worked next door to the one on Geelong Road in Victoria and remember when they were taken to court for selling KENTUCKY FRIED RABBIT. From then on that's what my kids called it.

    Hospital pneumonia kills Wollongong man waiting for aged care bed

    thank you Liz. I too have a breathing problem called Pseudomonas which many doctors have never heard of. It's caused by living in a house with mould, mildew, asbestos and fibro. It was my eldest son's house and he kept trying to tell me mould and mildew wouldn't hurt me... strange seeing he was...

    Hospital pneumonia kills Wollongong man waiting for aged care bed

    it certainly would be easier to do VAD. The only ones who know about my pills are my psychologist and my carer who both agree that we should have a choice without others telling us how to live and behave. I asked my doctor what he thought of VAD and he didn't even reply. He's from Burma so maybe...

    Hospital pneumonia kills Wollongong man waiting for aged care bed

    I've lived 83 years, worked up until the last few years. When do you think I'll be old enough to make my own decision re living or dying? I've had the kidney disease since age 8 and cancers from 16. I haven't given in yet although have come close a few times. I live alone, do my own cleaning...

    Gestetner machines

    I certainly remember these machines. I was a 16 year old working for Mangrovite Industries in Lane Cove NSW and part of my job was to create the advertising brochures for the company. In my first year doing this I was thrilled to be given a little pen knife with the name on it as "a Christmas...

    Helen Mirren on love at 80s: holding hands and telling critics to f*** off

    I had to laugh at the photo of Helen Miren in all her natural glory. With some of the crap that's thrown at old and infirm people they have a right to say FFFFFFFFFFFF OOOOFFFFFF

    Ah for those days now, sadly, it's the holy dollar that rules the world. Greed has taken over.

    Hospital pneumonia kills Wollongong man waiting for aged care bed

    Yes Suzanne, what your daughter has experienced has sadly, been going on for many years, long before I retired from nursing. Even my doctor won't talk about VAD probably as I've heard before, "we trained to save lives not take them" Heaven help them when they get old or disabled.'

    Hospital pneumonia kills Wollongong man waiting for aged care bed

    A huge part of the problem is that, like here in Bundaberg, so many new retirement villages are being built but who in the name of heaven can afford to live there. I have tried talking to people about assisted dying and I was told I wasn't sick enough to help even though I've lived with kidney...
