    If you need to contact Centrelink call at 8.00am. It’s the time they open and can drop wait times down to as little as 3/4 hour instead of 2-3 hours during the day.

    Local pedestrians outraged by unsafe car spaces in a major city!

    Depends on the local council by laws. What their rules are for parking on footpaths. I don’t think you are slowed to park on footpaths in sa. Check your local council and maybe even a depot at state level. Not sure which ones deal with it though.

    Local pedestrians outraged by unsafe car spaces in a major city!

    Great idea. If you don’t like the risk as a pedestrian go to an Asian country for a week and then come back and see if you still complain

    Researchers suggest cigarette-style warning labels on meat to reduce consumption

    Years ago red meat was good for us. Now a cows fat is destroying the atmosphere. If that was the case the air would be smelling of farts by now. Put a warning label on red meat but I for one will continue to eat it. No vegetarian or vegan for this carnivore!!!

    Are Australians demanding the end of self-service check-outs?

    If self serve checkouts means more staff have been employed to do the online shopping that means the supermarkets are out of pocket for the extra staff they have employed to do that shopping over and above the normal checkout staff. A supermarket losing money? Something smells about the...

    Legendary rockstar Denny Laine from Moody Blues and Wings passes away at 79

    What a big loss. Sadly all the “classic” rock stars are getting to the age when it’s time to go. They won’t be replaced because today’s music (?) isn’t ground breaking as it used to be in the 60’s and 70’s. Thank you for your music especially Mull of Kintyre. RIP
