I was listening to the post Yasi conversation on the ABC this morning and a lady said that the price of bananas had gone from $2 per kg to $7, overnight, in her local (read big 2) supermarket. Now these bananas would have been sourced and paid for well before the cyclone. The big 2 supermarkets will jus...

We went to sheepyard flat last year which was sooooo crowded, so I thought I might try some other sites from the CAMPS4 book. Would prefer a river. Anyone been to any of them ie Doct...

Lost one of my Kids a couple of hours ago. The little honey coloured one Wombat was having fun with a couple of weeks ago. Don't know if it was a snake, or a Heart attack. At least it was very quick. Still got Angel. I guess I'll survive. Cheers, Sheba.

In a previous thread, I made this comment. Regardless of the fact that the stock in hand has already been paid for , the price of fuel goes up straight away, [they've already paid for it at the old price]. According to Radio and TV reports, Banana Prices have already increased a lot, even though there is...
