Here in Vic we are about to get a statue to the previous Premier of this state. which will cost $134,000. This brilliant idea comes when we are up to our eyeballs in debt, and is a tribute to someone who started the spiral. Methinks it will not be up long before someone changes the colour scheme or, better s...

My son who is now 37, has been playing in bands of various genres in Ballarat and Melbourne since he was 16. He came home for Easter and said to me "have a look at this" It was a "band" called Fossils 1969. They are on Spotify as an "artist" It is 100% ai. No musicians needed. Apparently, you subscribe to an ai...

My trusty 2014 Isuzu Dmax is approaching the 200K mark and (touch wood) has not missed a beat to date.

I don...
