Got Mrs Tony a Kindle for her birthday yesterday and she has got it up and working and has already bought and downloaded a book from Amazon. It was just sitting on a table. No wires or computer connection. Frankly I find it a bit spooky! Came with a DVD claimed to hold 29,500 books. That should keep her quie...

I just got home from the annual trip down to the deep south, and should have stayed there. We have had 15 inches in the last few days, with more to come. Seen every dvd in the house, and am getting bored to the MAX. You can only do so much in the shed, and this wet weather is getting me down. Whats it like where yo...

Does anyone out there have one of these or know someone who does? As I was complaining about being so hot over in SA last month a friend sent me this link. It looks as though it could work while free camping. I'm really not good in the heat. Tess

How do we accumulate so much stuff that we never use, never look at, we pack them up in boxes over the years just in case we might need it or because we call it our memorabilia and just couldn't get rid of that..........well I am over it all, just crazy ........in the middle of packing our essential living s...

I have just been away and tried the new mozzie patches. Not 100% convinced they work. We had heaps of mozzies to try them out on! I stuck one onto the bottom of my pants and stood near my husband. He was getting mozzies on his legs but I wasn't. But as for the 2 metre coverage? They were still biting me on my ar...

I was sent an email today (which I think has been going around since 2009) about telemarketers going to have access to my mobile and it will cost me if I answer. This is a scam. The email is a viral email. To verify this you can check out this link https://www.donotcall.gov.au/alerts.cfm The link given i...

Do you agree with the handout to Holden? Why doesn't any small business get a handout? Should for instance, the caravan manufacturing industry in Australia get a big handout, so they can afford to do more research into design and modernise. How much is keeping people employed in inefficient indust...

Will anyone be in Berri or nearby for the weekend? I'll be there for a Sing Australia gathering, but I'd love to catch up with anyone who may be there. I'll be in the van park overnight after an afternoon of singing.

While we have been parked up in daughter's yard just west of Rockhampton, each day Keith removed from just inside one of our outside lockers 2 frogs (green, 1 large, 1 small). They would squeeze in through a very small gap. He would take them down the back & release them. Each day they were back. ...
