I have never hosted a "party". When I was younger and had boundless energy, I used to do the Christmas full on banquet thing for both sides of the family. It was a miracle I survived it. Now, my favourite thing is to have family and close friends around for a nice morning or afternoon tea...

Well imagine that. I have a carnivorous pot plant. It catches bugs with no tool at all. They get attracted to the scent and just walk on in. The animal/plant world has many lessons to teach.

Social media whining ... storm in a tea cup.

They are not saying why because change is afoot. In my local WW, they changed to these trolleys, then later, introduced the self scanners that are placed in the little gadget on top of the handle. I have used it and am having some difficulty when it wants to argue with me about what I put in the...

Imagine calling fresh milk "Raw Milk". Like others here, we grew up in a small farm environment and fresh milk every day was as sweet as could be. No brittle bones in my family.

Stupid is as stupid does.

Shrinklation should be given a good look too. Some get away with blue murder.

Thanks Evie, you're a sweetheart.

Well, in my world, if something makes me miserable, I stop doing it. If touring was so bad, stop. It's not as if he needs the money. Also, why keep filming when things on the home front need attention. This situation comes down to the old belief that all successful marriages are so because both...

I don't have a yard, as such. There is a tiny square off the front porch that is smaller than a 3rd bedroom. It is surrounded by a brick fence, and, doesn't seem to heat up. Coming from an ethnic background where cement was king, there is no way I would back pedal to concrete, so, we kept the...

Maybe the power to be should think about adopting a DIMWIT carriage where they can all be thrown in together. Those things do not belong on public transport.

Shame Dame Edna has left us. She would have loved cropping the Gladis..Gladis.

Bless him.

This study says that study got it wrong. That study told us we got it wrong. The next study will say you are all wrong....blah, blah, blah When I read things like this, my mind goes to the hundreds of thousands of dollars, or maybe millions, paid each year to fund research. KA-CHING!!! Who do we...

I have a huge problem with the concept of Halloween. I dont get the idea of letting kids wander the streets and beg strangers for lollies. In my mind, this has disaster written all over it. Some parents accompany the children, however, many more dont. Just buy a bunch of lollies and give the...

Well. Looks like daddy needs to be dobbed in to granny. Granny should be told why any future money gifts, if they eventuate, should go to you. Then you put the grown up girl pants on and open up your own bank account. Some parents look at having kids and supporting them is a investment in...

Good on her. It's nice to see someone is ready and willing to take the circumstances of their clients into account.

Hmmm. Must have kept a bunch of swimmers frozen in a dish when he was younger. I am sure he would be happy and ready to live every day as if it is his last.

We went through this when my mum passed. We had 2 years to sell the property from mums death to avoid CGT. However, there are exemptions. My first course of action was to go straight to a tax agent. Made things very easy. We did not oat CGT. Dont try and sort it out yourself as it is a minefield...
