Ha Ha. I love that. I've had a few on face book. I lead them on too by preaching to them. Surprise, surprise they've given up.

I live in a small country town 1/2 way across Australia. We have a lot of travellers passing through & they reckon our op shop is the best they have been too. Items are under $10 & most under $5. Also they have a lot of freebies in the line of fruit & veg. I went in there today & bought 4 DVDs...

The same happened to me. My neighbour complained to the council & they virtually called me a liar, which really upset me. The complaints were still going in when my dog had been dead for3 months. Didn't get one apology. I even had to prove he was dead by digging up his body!

I didn't notice this type of behaviour when I did my training (60+ years ago) nor did I apply it. My Granddaughter, who has just completed her RN, told me she found this behaviour very prominent in the larger hospitals & has come across it less in the small country hospitals & particularly from...

I had a similar problem. I am a little deaf, so tried to do something about the daytime barking, but was perplexed about the night time, as my dog slept on the floor beside me. The dogs were shut in from 5pm to 8am & were allowed out for their pre bed wee, with me with them. I would have known...

have to be careful. Must say I have been very happy with Kogan. I bought a washing machine from them & the courier brought it in & arranged for someone to set it up for me. But I live in a small country town & the courier was a local guy......

I feel sorry for the young policeman having to deal with this sort of thing

Because I'm on a pension I've had a few people say to me about the "wonderful benefits" I receive - what benefits? I receive a pension payment, which I am very grateful for. Because I live in a rural area; power, water, phone (if you can get a reception) fuel, food etc is way more expensive than...

I agree with the responses. I live next to a hotel in a small country town also on my own & elderly. I find Saturday & Friday nights a nightmare. I've had drunks try & force there way in, but soon leave when they meet my dog(A Maremma x Irish wolf hound)

years ago, when my daughter was small, she was playing on the sound @ a local beach & stepped on some shallow buried left overs from a beach barby & ended up in hospital with third degree burns on her feet

This warning can apply to many of our garden treasures including all of the Euphorbia family, many of the lilies etc. I just wish I could grow the darn things(desert rose)

I too had a similar experience. I use to have a lady come to me for money for food. One day, instead of giving her money, I gave her a box of food. When she left she threw the box onto the road.

I had to have a little chuckle when I read this. Perhaps I should be hired to deal with these lilies - I KILL them. Have never been able to grow them. They just die. I've been told everything belonging to the lily family is poisonous.

a few years ago a friend of mine had an egg(layed by one of her own chooks) that had another egg inside it, shell & all, & the 2nd egg was a double yoker!

I wish they would have those bins here

this act gets up my nose too. It has happened many times, even causing me to miss appointments. It's not the locals who do it, but travellers. The driveways are clearly marked by yellow lines, so there is no excuse.

I recycle my coffee cups. They make great plant pots. Can even be decorated

trouble is they only deliver to a small area & very little in SA

A friend of mine returned from a stay @ a motel & found she had returned with, to her horror, some uninvited tenants - bed bugs.
