I'll start by saying that I'm seeking replies from people with an affinity with animals in general and dogs in particular. I'm not interested in the opinions of people who either don't like dogs/animals or think they should be left at home - this probably includes people who think dogs should be an out...

Hi I know this is a hot subject these days as theres more caravans on the road and more accidents, coincidently more police or heavy haulage checking us out for overload. My mate reckons by using WDH will level the load as his GCM is good, but is well over on the GVM. When the heavys weigh the van and the tug...

I have just bought a vehicle in Qld where I am staying for the present. However, I have an NSW license, and my pension card was acquired in NSW. It seems rules have changed while I have been away and one cannot drive or have a car registered in one State and a License in another. The rego expires in August at...

Hi All I wondered how many people are on restricted medication and how do they manage them? I know some can get a supply of medication for 6 months but others can only get 1 month at a time and in West Australia it is even worse as you have to have seen a pain specialist in the last 12 months which is okay if you h...

Three couples are trying to get married at the same church. There is a young couple, a middle-aged couple, and an elderly couple. The three couples meet with the priest and discuss when they can get married. If you wish to get married in my church, you must all go one month without having sex, says the pri...

I have an annoying problem with gas water heater - when I switch to ON, after a few seconds the heater clicks on and you can heat the gas burning but after about 5 seconds it shuts off. I reset the switch to OFF then ON again and same thing happens. After 5 or 6 attempts, the heater finally stays on and works no...

Gday... I was just in Coles at the checkout, and an old bloke in front was getting served. His bill came to $54.60, but when he counted out his change, he had just under $50. He didnt want me to help him, God bless him, but I insisted, and in no time we had all his shopping back on the shelves. Cheers - John
