My understanding of physics is shady at best but my brain cannot comprehend how these ships don't just turn turtle!

So you found that famous French bakery where everything is calorie-free? I've been looking forit for years

Shades of my dear old Dad. 'Rohan Kanhi was a West Indian cricketer. You mean 'May I"

Question for the brains trust on here. My lovely daughter is shouting me a trip to the UK. I'll be travelling alone in April/May next year. I'm 75 and haven't flown o/s for 12 years -with SQ business on the A380. I'd probably have to fly cattle class having given away my points to her, have...

I know my hearing isn't the best but Colin Farrell is one actor I can't decipher. Thank goodness for subtitles

When we see a dud it's the ten minute rule. If it hasn't improved or grabbed us, we pull the pin, and think - as in this case - Antony Hopkins must have had an alimony payment due, only in it for the money

John you are either in a Monty Python sketch or Yes Minister episode. Don't you realise bureaucrats have endless hours in the day to think up embuggerances for the citizenry. Just cos they can!

My dear departed MIL loved a good moan - would ask how you were just so she then had an opening to tell you just how she was. Which was of course ever so much worse than you. My other sister in law said - you better have a vasectomy, that'd be about he only thing she couldn't top

I've often wondered why media outlets feel the need to stick in a person's age - if a person'd been robbed oir injured in a traffic accident why do we need to know if they are 23 or 53?? I did raise my eyebrows one day reading of an accident where an 'elderly' pedestrian of 65 had been knocked...

I recall here in Melbourne years ago, and if I recall this related to private parking areas (eg a temporary one on an empty site) illegal parkers would be clamped.....there was an enormouse outcry. But clamping like they do in the UK where people park on the street on no parking areas. A lovely...

Just the one photo would have been quite sufficient!

There's a few seats that are free so far....the ones in the toilets...it's a wonder they haven't come up with charging for oilet paper

I heard on 3AW a few days ago, an ad for Hardly Normal selling HP computer stuff. Or as the girl reading the ad said more than once, Haitch P. Grrr

I'd rather have dishes piled on the sink waiting for their turn in the dishwasher, than wash stuff by hand. We have solar, doesn't cost anything to run. The new Bosch dishwasher is marvellous, it's so quiet I can only tell it's running by the little red lights on the floor. Washes in under an...

I put a new kitchen in last year. Bosch induction cooktop - just brilliant, I've always used gas but this is a marvel. Note you're tight for space, so am I but the 600 cooktop and oven are plenty big enough. I have the Bosch Series 6 dishwasher - again it's brilliant. I've had Miele for the last...

I was born here and intrigued to read some of the questions when young English cousins became citizens 9 years ago - like we have 3 official flags not one -of course familiar with the Aboriginal flag but I honestly did not know the Torres Strait Island flag was official.

It doesn't matter where I've been go or what amazing scenery and buildings I've seen - this still lifts my heart every single time

There's the red flag - right there in Para 4. "Banking ethics"

Dammit. I've been noodling round on my computer for years, & have I ever received any spam chatting to me about enduring unforgettable pleasures? I have not. I feel quite left out.

After running a large inner city strata management company with my husband for 30+ years one thing I would say (even more relevant these days with bigger and bigger buildings) is that many people who are buying apartments don't understand it's communal living. So you have to consider other...
