    I hate it! My husband and I entered a car park on the Gold Coast last year, and even after reading the instructions we still had absolutely no idea what to do. Finally we found two young men who agreed to help, which left us feeling not only frustrated but inadequate and embarrassed, too. We...

    Prime Minister Albanese reveals a new plan to slash the cost of living for Australians

    Thank you, I heartily agree with you. Insulting people certainly doesn’t help. Yes, course we’d like more financial help but I feel the government are doing their best in what has become a fragile and unstable world. I, for one, count my blessings every day for what I have.

    You had me quite excited there for a minute thinking pensioners from all over Australia might be in for a bit of energy relief but sadly the article is for West Australians only. Anything for Queenslanders? I ask, with diminishing optimism.

    Shocking Scam Alert: Fake Death Announcement of Sunrise Host David Koch Used to Lure Victims into Cryptocurrency Scam!

    Stupidly I fell for the Maggie Beer scam last year, the one where she was promoting weight loss capsules. Except it wasn’t the real Maggie Beer and I realised this five minutes after clicking the buy button. I was scammed to the tune of $475 which was instantly taken out of my account. The...
