    Bendigo Art Gallery set to close for $45m redevelopment

    Oh come on, if this wasn't a click bait heading? NOT Closing but renovating, there is a difference. And 54 Million for an Art centre in times where we have people in tents and caravans, utterly ridiculous and disgusting.

    'I’m not going to serve you here': Here’s why Aussies are divided over this restaurant drama

    I disagree, it's not the restaurant's job to teach parents how to look after their children. The parents should know and respect other diners and have their child behave in a manner befitting a restaurant. If people don't like that then stiff go elsewhere. I raised 3 boys and they behaved and...

    'It won't happen again': Citizens call out public official after breaking car park rules

    How do you know they are normal and healthy? I know a woman that has a colostomy bag and for all intents and purposes she appears fine and wears clothing that hides the fact. People are so quick to judge!

    Are parking fees for large cars about to skyrocket? You won't believe the reason why

    Umm, so do Vans and Trucks and semi-trailers. Not all of their drivers stick to the rules. As to maniacs on the roads, you may only be noticing as they stand out, but every type of vehicle has these kind of drivers.

    'I want my money back': Aussie man shares distressing experience with this bank's customer service

    Hang on, the Bank may have been right in intially blocking it and then asking what is what for, but in the long run it's his money and if they tried and he insisted then so be it. If he was scammed then it was his fault no one elses. Banks take too many liberties these day as if it were their...
