Great idea. My nomination is for the Matt Talbot hostel for the homeless. Horrible to be homeless and without family at this special time of year.

The same thing happened to me. VirtuaLly while I was in conversation with Qantas FF, telling them my husband was deceased and asking for his points to be transferred, his account closed before my eyes and nothing I said would convince Qantas to transfer those points. I'm totally off Qantas -...

I agree with Koom above. I watched the roast and really I don't know why because it wasn't funny at all really. I do have a sense of humour but it must be a lot different to those comedians - all of whom thought they were hilarious. Gleeson?? Rubbish.

I am not an Australian by birth but I am a permanent resident and have been for many years. I got one question wrong. Question 8.

I'll try the method with my kettle but what I really need to know is how to clean the inside of a teapot. Mine is looking decidedly 'black'!!

Don't pay someone else to do the things you can do yourself. Save your money to pay for those things you find impossible to do.

I'm a self funded retiree who, with the interest rates, has seen very little interest on cash deposits for some time. I am on my own with a cat as my husband passed away last year. However, we (husband and I) have always helped out financially with out single mother daughter and her three...

I have quite a lot of the blue and white and I'm still using it! Wonder what's more useful, the Corning Ware or the possible cash. I've also a couple of other less common designs too. Has never really occurred to me to sell it.

I still have a flour sifter and the hand beater.

KayDee - are there any words in the English language that begin with 'rt'. A bit tough to go on and take the last FOUR letters! vertigo

Best joke I've read for ages and ages. I'd copy and paste and send it to my grand-children - but I don't think they's quite get it!!

Made me laugh out loud too!!

Really great newsletter to start the weekend and the joke was the icing on the cake!!

I left the leftovers at my daughter's house!! There are four of them and only one of me. I do have some green prawns so thought I'd turn them into a green prawn curry!!

Oh dear. The poor child will be scarred and scared for life. When he was a small child in Italy, my husband was chased around and around a well by an angry goose who caught up with him and bit him. HARD. He was afraid of them forever after.

Couple of comments from today's newsletter How many politicians are there?? Far, far too many!! And on the mail before November 9th for Christmas parcels to UK in 1930s?? Made me smile wryly!! It now takes equally that long and often longer for parcels to and from UK. Last one I mailed...

I was given the 2020 Advent Calendar last year. Great value on very drinkable wines. Hoping for the same gift again this year. It was such a good buy that when the calendar went on special for half price, we bought another one!!

Thank you for your kind comments Xe and Goodbloke.

11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month. Yes, I well know the significance of this date in history. However, of significance to me is the birth of my son - born at exactly 11 a.m. on the 11th of November and he weighed in at right on 11 lbs. He turns 51 today. Happy Birthday, Andrew.
