    Another so-called "expert" giving a spin on a hotel visit. Most people with commonsense are aware of hygiene and take the necessary steps to ensure they follow them. No need for this over-caution!

    Brewing dissent: Man stirs cold treatment from his wife after breaking this ‘unspoken rule’

    Nothing wrong with this. My husband and I always ordered our coffee to come with our meal when we went out to lunch. Domestic war over coffee protocol - how ridiculous? There is no protocol, it's personal choice. Reminds me of a time my husband and I went for coffee to a cafe we hadn't visited...

    New details emerge on teen suspect in Bunnings carpark stabbing

    That is your opinion. Mine is the opposite. I agree with you that the court system lets the public down with the light sentencing often handed down. However, I think taking such extreme measures to kill a 16 year old boy was totally unnecessary. These officers are supposed to be trained to take...

    New details emerge on teen suspect in Bunnings carpark stabbing

    Well it would have to be a consideration, These are young children indoctrinated from a very young age. Imagine if you had a child that age who behaved in that manner, and just how you would feel if they were put to death! We are all capable of such atrocities - the majority do not carry them...

    New details emerge on teen suspect in Bunnings carpark stabbing

    Whilst what the boy did was absolutely abhorrent, I find it difficult to understand how police had to resort to killing him - surely they could have disabled him by wounding him. So sad on many levels.

    New details emerge on teen suspect in Bunnings carpark stabbing

    Wow! This was a 16 year old boy - no need for him to have been given a death sentence. How many police did it take?

    Royal couple's friend shares Prince William's and Princess Catherine's struggles amid cancer diagnosis

    Friend? I doubt that. The Royal Family has always been very discreet about such personal matters, and no "friend" would disclose any information whatsoever.

    Cash-paying customer erupts in anger after outrageously long checkout delay at Coles

    I use self-serve all the time. I find them efficient, fast, I can pack my groceries my way, and there is always a staff member there to help if the machine doesn't like you. I think, like it or not, the way technology is heading we just have to deal with these issues. There are more things of...

    Shopper finds shocking surprise in this ALDI item! Could your food be tampered with, too?

    I'm sceptical that's a human bite. Who would eat a chunk of raw bacon - you'd need to be desperate methinks! Sounds a bit dodgy to me.

    Unlock secret tech discounts with this weird trick—here's what everyone should know!

    Been doing this for years with great success at various retailers. The other question to ask is "do you offer Seniors Discounts"? I received $100 rebate on an $800 furniture item just by asking this question. I as very pleased as it was already on special at a very good price.

    Chris Hemsworth clears up misconceptions about his ‘Thor-ifying’ health revelation

    Another precious actor who puts personal information out there, and then doesn't like the response he gets. For his wife to playact an old woman to soften his "fears about ageing" - not how you imagine "Thor" would deal with adversity???

    Triple J's outrageous on-air gaffe sparks controversy

    Most of it is sensationalist and the need to shock. This to cover the fact most of them have no musical talent whatsoever, so have to resort to gutter language to get a reaction to their "music". The fact this is acceptable in todays society says a lot about social standards - sad really!

    This comedian's shocking response to a mum and baby in his show will shock you!

    This nothing "news story" has got out of hand. The woman in question took a 7 month old baby to a comedy show where patrons PAID to HEAR the comedian, not a baby making loud noises. She was asked to leave as several patrons complained about the baby. It is interesting to note that this would...

    'To repair or not to repair?’: Shopper’s heart shatters after receiving Kmart package

    Don't agree. I buy a lot of things online and have had no mishaps. Seems an odd comment to make. It wasn't the products so much as the courier delivery.

    I have tried several small loaves, but I now buy Coles own brand small 7 seed loaf - it is delicious, nutritious and VERY competitively priced at $2.70 for a small loaf. They also do a larger one at I believe about $3.70. Very good value and really tasty and crunchy.
