    King Charles $5 note snub triggers backlash: 'A disappointment to many Australians'

    While Australia is part of the Commonwealth, I feel it disrespectful not to have King Charles on the note. I don't think anybody has the right to change tradition. Surely they could incorporate the recognition of First Australians as well as the King? I am not impressed.

    How on earth can he blame the bank when he willingly did the transfers is beyond me!! People have to take responsibility for their own actions, dumb or not. Typical of the world today unfortunately.

    Why do people complain about Aldi. I love the place. The staff are so helpful, prices good and you know everything is done to save time and money. If people don't like it, shop elsewhere but please, please, pleasse - do not knock Aldi.

    Interesting. Just checked Amazon site to order storage bags but they are on special at $19.99 and not $15.74 as you thought. Not such a good deal after all.

    British expat’s scathing review of popular Aussie town has locals fuming

    Should have gone to Europe if she loved it that much. Like the immigrants who do whatever to get to live here then promptly try to change our way of life to what they left behind. This is a beautiful country, great people and an amazing way of life. Shut up or ship out!!!

    ALDI's newest product is made-in-China and it’s getting mixed reactions from shoppers

    Why all the fuss? We don't worry about so many other items we purchase that are made in China. If it saves money, helps the environment, no problem as far as I can see. If you don't approve, then don't buy it. End of story.

    ‘This is genius’ – Laundry just got a lot easier thanks to this new gadget

    My great grandmother, grandmother and mother all had them in England. In fact I can't recall any house I went in that never had one in the kitchen. Great overnight but a tad annoying during the day having to duck under the washing!!

    Uber driver hailed as a 'hero' after bold move – but did she do the right thing or not?

    What!!! There are two sides to every story and she had absolutely no right to intervene. Her role was purely that of a Uber driver not judge and jury!! She has no right to be allowed to continue as a Uber driver and should be censored.

    Charles and Camilla's alleged love child from Australia plans to release a Netflix series about his life

    Sorry, but I don't believe in fairy tales. I totally agree with helenoconnor's comment. To me it seems obvious that anybody can make outlandish claims knowing full well they cannot be disputed nor proven. I think he thinks he has opened Pandora's Box and looking to make a fortune!!

    Wife 'disgusted' after catching her husband in a 3 am act – is it technically cheating?

    I too discovered a similar thing in my "happy" marriage. Yes he was sorry etc etc but it was the beginning of the end - he was hooked and eventually ended up leaving. You cannot change people. Move on!! He will always be a cheat, trust me.

    Maybe it is ideal for some people but why make a fuss - nobody is forcing anyone to buy it.

    Aussie TV hosts call Harry and Meghan 'D-grade celebrities'; they're said to NOT be welcome in the UK

    Why on earth do we have to keep hearing of their spoilt brat, childish ways. They opted to leave the "Firm" so isn't it best to just ignore them and treat them with the contempt they both deserve!!!

    Couple ridiculed after complaining about racy detail at a construction site

    Young mum criticised for 'lax parenting' after toddler paints on white walls

    I cannot believe the stupidity and lack of care by the mother not only to have left a one year old unattended for what must have been quite a while, but leaving a tin of paint around. What if he had digested it, got it in his eyes! Poor little mite! I am totally disgusted at her irresponsible...

    Bunnings' snags increase in price after 15 years – here's why!

    Sorry but I disagree. Bread hasn't gone up much, sausages are still similar in price and onions go a long way. Having catered years ago for shows, we found keep prices down and sell more. I think they will end up with less profits in the long run. It is difficult enough for pensioners and...
