    Lost wallet turns up in unexpected spot after frantic search

    I remember when my boys were little I lost my bunch of keys with my car keys on there too. I searched everywhere and I was taking a group of kids to Maccas for my sons birthday and I had to break to petrol cap lock off to fill up before we left. I thought maybe one of the boys had maybe took...

    What’s one tiny thing that made your week better?

    The thing that made my week was my very first Australian friend of almost 40 years came to stay for a couple of days. We now live over three hours from each other so to spend a couple of days catching up was magic. Walking on the beach, collecting shells for a project she’s got in mind...

    Sick of cleaning up after someone else’s dog? You’re not the only one!

    For the most part I tell my dog to “go toilet” in our garden before we walk and he does. I do take bags with me just in case. The other day I did have to use them. I cleaned up and I tied the bag to his lead till we got home. Only when we got there - no bag! I had to re-trace our steps and...

    Could your morning brew be harming your eyes? Doctors weigh in

    I do have the odd coffee but I’m a green tea drinker. When I have a coffee at home I use coffee bags. I find because I don’t coffee much, the instant goes hard and I have to throw it away. The coffee bags taste more like brewed coffee and are individually wrapped in foil so last longer

    Nearly half of Aussies support legalising cannabis—do you?

    I guess it would be treated the same as driving under the influence of alcohol. Alcohol is legal but you still can’t go over .05, with any drug it’s illegal to drive while it’s in your system and even if it’s made legal driving rules probably wouldn’t change

    RIP to both these gentlemen. But my heart goes out to Diogo Jota’s family. To his parents who have lost two children and to his new wife and young family. They must be heartbroken 😢

    Cricket and Australia Day used to go hand in hand—so why are matches disappearing now?

    As I have said many times, what happened to the indigenous people was awful and should never be forgotten. You can’t change history but you can change the future. We should be focusing on that and Australia Day is for ALL Australians to celebrate how far we have come and how proud we are about...

    NSW man in hospital with state's first confirmed case of Australian bat lyssavirus

    Yeah but why would it have anything to do with the Covid vaccine? Shouldn’t that actually have protected hm if that’s the case 🤷🏻‍♀️

    NSW man in hospital with state's first confirmed case of Australian bat lyssavirus

    My son was a volunteer for wild life rescue for a while and he had all his vaccinations so he could work with bats. Many get caught in nets used to protect fruit. People don’t realise the danger of trying to release them if you don’t have the protection of the vaccine. One time he had been out...

    Feeling exhausted every afternoon? Here’s what your nap says about your long-term health

    I have a little snooze in the chair most days. Sometimes it can be that I’ve only been up for an hour or two, other times, late afternoon. I’m retired, I can do that lol. I have to say I sleep well every night, nap or not. I actually am known for being able to sleep any time, any where. I even...

    Channel Seven ends broadcast in several areas after deal collapses

    I use Foxtel Go to watch free to air TV. Last night I could not get it to work, thank goodness for the smart TV. But for some reason I could only get the Sydney channel ten news. No big deal. I put the Foxtel Go on this evening and it’s working perfectly. I stream the radio through my speaker...

    Health officials issue measles warning after visits to public places

    I was always led to believe I hadn’t had measles, even though my sister had it and Mum made sure I was in close contact with her. I know I was never immunised for measles. To protect my grandkids I had a blood test to see if I needed vaccinating and it came up that I had immunity. So maybe I did...

    Could your favorite online store disappear next? Why Woolies abandons online shop after just 3 years

    I’ve bought the odd thing from My Deal but I can’t say I’ll miss it. Funny thing but, I bought some items from OZ Sale a couple of weeks ago and it came up on the My Post app as a delivery from My Deal. So I don’t know if the two companies are linked somehow.
