Eggs from chickens reared in back gardens in the inner city can have up to 30 times more lead in them than that from country reared chickens

I think that we/ the scientific community needs to slow down on the AI field, everything these days has gone far too fast and the young people need to realize that they are missing out on a lot of the "old ways"

You don\u2019t say why you need your own transportation. There may be a lot more going on at the company than just getting there.

no, they should place a hit man at each roundabout and shoot all those bad drivers with a squirt gun full of indelible pink ink,,,,\ud83d\ude01

Supermarkets have 'meat cutters' not butchers. Butchers start with thr whole animal. There aren't alot of true butchers around anymore

Wonder Woman lol but I also loved watching The incredible hulk,The six million dollar man,Bionic woman,Bewitched,The love boat,Tom and Jerry,Lost in space,I dream of Jeanie,Mork and Mindy,Charlies Angels,The brady bunch,Little house on the prairie and the Waltons and Chips lol

What I can't understand is how I can dream things that I have never seen before. Complex machines or equations I have no hope of understanding in real life. Places I have never been to before in exquisite detail. People I have never met... It is all quite strange...

YES! But without "the Royals INC." what else would we talk about? How on earth would the print industry survive? Perhaps, we could talk about The Bay City Rollers? Anyone remember them?

My fathers hair was receding and he said that his brain needs more room and pushed the hair out of the way.

mmm great topic..where do i start haha. If i have the shakes from a bit of low blood sugar- because i've actually used some physical energy which my lazy body not used to- i have to snaffle a peanut butter and honey sammie. If i'm just feeling piggy then chip sammie, cake cake or cake, and of course choc. I used to wolf down hot chips but lately i can't do that without suffering later. And everything with a cup o tea n sugar.

Roll up and put a lotto ticket in each Christmas cracker and don't tell anybody you have done it prior to Xmas lunch/dinner. There then will be a few surprised faces when at the table the crackers are all 'banged off' and then opened to get their hat and small toy AND surprise , surprise a lotto ticket.

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas, just like the ones I used to know. Where the treetops glisten, and children listen, to hear sleigh bells in the snow, the snow ...

units have their down side, as no gardens for people loke me i like a garden. And a house you can please yourself ,myself i enjoy growing vegies and pottering around the garden.

we had an outdoor spa and had to do the same thing, the cost was getting ridiculous, so we pulled it out and filled it in.

For entertainment, relaxing with your loved ones, keeping up with global news or just helps with boredom/loneliness especially for those living by themselves.

Just read this news and it's a great song: Pink Floyd have reunited to record their first new material in 28 years, a protest song against the Ukraine war. Hey Hey, Rise Up! features David Gilmour and Nick Mason alongside long-time Floyd bassist Guy Pratt and Nitin Sawhney on keyboards.

I don't understand the question (because I have a (horrible) tendency to ignore theoretical considerations) - however, sex is definitely the answer!

My ex-wife is charismatic and charming (still CUTE and still has a BODY (not a good foundation for a marriage) - which is still amazing since my ex-wife is eleven years older than me - still a SCAM ARTIST (Does a tiger lose its' stripes as it gets older?) - I guess we all play the FOOL (I know I did) at some point in our Lifes (and your money is going to part from you under suspicious circumstances while you are playing the FOOL). I guess the TRICK is not to make the same mistake twice in your lifetime (easily said - harder to accomplish)!

I am getting sick of all of them...they have no specialization really except GREEDS GALORE.......at the expense of us All....

That's called MARKETING. I have some Sketchers I have been wearing for years, I pop them in the wash. All these trendy shoes are for those woke people who want to make a statement..hey look at me I'm exercising and boo hoo to you old fat idiots. All you do is see how the shoes feel on your feet. I always look for specials. There only thing after having three kids it is not worth buying cheapo Kmart school shoes for your kids. They didn't last a term and the soles just fell off. I go to clearance shops that have premium leather school shoes at a much lower price.

I would start my own survey company and have loads of fun dishing out low points to mugs doing surveys.

i am not an adventurous but travelling to Thailand. The biggest thrill and adventure was visiting the buddist site where i got to sit and pat numerous full grown tigers.Scary and euphoric at the same time

If you want to lock yourself down for 3 days, then go ahead, knock yourself out! BUT don't force it upon those that don't want to participate. There has been too much loss of freedoms and too many restrictions! I used to LOVE the free country we once lived in, the freedom that our ancestors fought and died for!

We always had family over so it was more to do with what they brought over. Rotten corn, crayfish, hangi, paua (abalone), kina (sea urchin) and wild pig. I was scared of Julia Child and her cleaver, but loved Hudson & Hall and Graham Kerr.

Bucket lists scare me but I would like to volunteer at the SPCA, help at a Soup kitchen, Food bank, do things that are selfless and for people that i don't know. Now that i have written this i am going to have to come through...

Hopefully people will just use less sugar. I cut out sugar around 12 years ago and I'm much better for it.

Being the head honcho in NSW is hard,your in no way going to be able to keep everyone happy,by trying to keep some happy she has plunged that state into being a bit of a basket case,the lockdowns should have been hard and fast first up,now your going to be in the doldrums there for donkeys,being a true leader she would have not been to bothered what people thought and done the right thing by the people even if it had gotten her kicked out at the next election

Investigate Suzy. Could be a factory near by. It could be anything? See if other people in your community or neighbourhood are noticing the same smell. Once you can identify where the smell is coming from, then you can contact your local council & see if they can do anything about fixing the problem. Good luck in your investigation Suzy.

I don’t use any digital assistant - I've managed for the last 60 odd years without one and think my "grey matter" is all the better off for it! (I also no not use "spell check" or calculators!)

Haha, it's simple really, It depends how much revenue the various states need. For example, if not enough people break the speed limit at 110 then reduce it to 100 etc.

have a friend who was visiting a cemetery and said she saw a tombstone that read: "beneath this sod lies another"

I was too busy dealing with survival issues (and childhood physical abuse issues) in the early stages of my life - I just can not remember!

It can be good for your security but it can also be highly invasive. Care needs to be taken with your liberty. On a lighter side one time when we were in a holiday home my friends wife was on dinner duty when the power failed and the stove went off, she said bugger and just put it in the microwave....AND??? Lol.... I laughed so much she biffed a sausage at me. Too much reliance on modern technology can be hazardous...lol

How did it happen?.....it was a gradual process, starting in the 1970's when gay men started wearing trainers when they had no intention to do any training...that quickly spread to the whole population...then we had "girl power" which meant the only way to be equal to men was to wear your bra on the outside and wander around half naked...this has now filtered down to the general population...it can be a blessing or a curse depending on how much fat is crammed into very small quantities of a semi see through stretch material....each to their own....

I think we rely on it way too much,back in 1859 there was major disruotion due to a sloar flare.it wiped out the worlwide telegraph system,When,its not if but when,imagine what it would be like,every electrical circuit fried,no communications,no power,no pumpimg stations,planes falling from the sky,you have already seen how people reacted to the china virus emptying shelves,imagine how it will be when this happens,every man for himself,they estimate it would take 10 years and trillions of dollars to just get US back to normal,if anyone is interested heres a link to the carrington event https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrington_Event#:~:text=The%20Carrington%20Event%20was%20a,largest%20geomagnetic%20storm%20on%20record.

A lack of intelligence and comprehension, add a poor vocabulary, as a good starting point ...then add a total lack of empathy, blind conviction and extreme arrogance...racial hatred is just the icing on the cake really...isn't it?...none of it is necessary and it makes me sad.

It doesn't fall into the "sexist" category at all! A man opening a door for a woman is delightful (and kinda sexy!).

It’s OK but what they really need to work on is removing surveys that have been completed or disqualified

i think if you date a man that expects sex after paying your dating the wrong type of man,before i married and dated women,if i asked them out i paid,not once did i expect anything in return.

I like the pay attn questions best. If a plane crashes on the birder between the US and Canada, where do they bury the survivors? A: You do not bury survivors. If a rooster lays an egg on the top of a steep hill, which side of the hill will the egg roll down? A: Rooster do not lay eggs. A traveler reaches a church beside a river. There is no ferry boat and no bridge so does he manage to cross the water? A: He goes into the church and borrows 'a cross' to get 'across' the river.

Ugh, I never had to do that, at least not yet. I get the usual ones like choose all the motorcycles or cars. I also am getting more of the ones where you have to write two or three sentences about your ideal vacation or three traits of your ideal celebrity, etc. before you start the survey,

Thanks for sharing your recipe, I am a vegetarian so unfortunately it's not for me, but I am sure there are many other people who will enjoy it.

What an easy meal, and sounds so good! My problem is, when I used to make Pigs-in-a-Blanket (Crescent rolls, hot dogs, cheese inside the hot dog), I ate 4 and my husband ate 4. I would probably try to eat all 6 (or 8) hot dogs myself in one meal! \ud83d\ude0b\ud83d\ude02

There is a fast track training course for drone pilots in Ukraine....once you qualify you can have a well -paid career in Europe...for ever..this is the future

I would start looking at a move. Not to the city but somewhere that has more access to shops and facilities. We all get older and need easier lifestyles. Closer to a city would be a bonus.

WHAT are chicken RIBS? All I know are 2 breasts, 2 thighs, 2 legs and 2 wings? There's what's left over, the boney ribcage? Not usually cooked because of lack of anything on it! I'm confused? ;-{

I made this last Sunday night for dinner. But I washed, then pricked the potatoes put them in the microwave for 5 minutes, then wrapped in foil for the oven, to cut down the cooking time. Delicious.

Wouldn't mind owning a Smart House - as long as it is smart enough to pay the rising cost of renting and the rising cost of utilities :-))!

Hi Jann R :-))! It was Love (are should I say Lust) at first sight between me and Baked Lemon Tart! I will immediately take a screenshot of this recipe!

I make butter chicken but I cheat and use Patak's paste, one tin of tomatoes an onion and coconut cream with naan bread and basmati rice. I'm not a very good cook so I cheat wherever I can.

Apparently the Chinese have bred a chicken with 4 legs so you get extra drumsticks. They think they will be tasty but no one knows for sure as they can't catch one...

The two biggest money makers in a cafe are coffee and the soup of the day...no-one seems to care that they both cost very little make...you wanting to use several different milks would make the Barrista's job much more difficult..in a really busy cafe it would be a nightmare....I would hate to be doing that job now....it was a breeze when I did it....I enjoyed it..nobody needed all this crap in 1980...(why is that?) what happened to humans in the meantime to need all this extra stuff?...and who is supposed to pay for the extra work..stock and storage?...its not just the purchase price my friend...you are missing the point..it makes everything a lot more difficult... and more expensive

i watched a guy wrap up a nasty cut with duct tape, not sure what the hospital thought but it did stop the bleeding... I have used it for flies and bugs and have several pieces hanging around the shed, also used it to remove splinters, pet hair, and lint from clothes and have often used it as a belt to keep my pants up is also a great insulator,

I had a Japanese pen pal about 50 years ago but after an earthquake never heard from her again. I currently write to a friend in America who hasn't got a computer but haven't heard from him for some time so will be writing to him very soon. Hope he is still around. There has occasionally been a gap in our letter-writing so I'm not too worried about it.

The older I get , I find after bending down to get something it's impossible to do silently .. and no NOT what you are thinking! It's because your diaphragm muscles become weaker and your stomach gets pushed up closer to it so oldies often make a grunt when they do such activities !

Were we friends during our marriage to each other - NO! We are friends - NOW, but we are NOT married to each other - it took decades to get too this point - as we both accepted responsibility for the demise of our marriage! Fortunately - for both of us, when we were married to each other - we did not have a child!

They are being paid to do a job, so why should the brides parents pay for food and drinks for them!!!

Qualification question today .. have you travelled by car to Mars in the past week ? Umm no,, Great! You have qualified for the survey . Now baking and listening to some music whether it's a streaming service such as YouTube or the common radio ( transistor) can be quite therapeutic I find, however the survey probably went on to interview the lucky applicants who were successful on a completely unrelated topic such as bladder leakage !! How many dribbles ? A few drops or more? How often .. oh that's all the questions we have for you today !

I have always recycled cards into gift tags, and yes you are correct - they are too expensive today and make the process of just sending someone a card, an awful one (when did cards get to be 10 dollars or more?!?! and that's without postage, lol).

I don\u2019t set a time limit Just enjoy doing things and they will be finished when they\u2019re done Relax

Thankfully, the ads offering sex from ladies around the globe have finally stopped. It got too much for me as I'm a hetero female!

Australia is a continent which is part of the region of Oceania. It is the only country in Oceania that has the land mass to be a continent. There are only 7 continent in the world and Australia is one of them, although other country seem to call it the continent of Australia/Oceania, must be some new age thing.

There are professionals who train for between 2 and 3 years whose sole purpose on graduation is to design things like surveys polls and forms that need to be filled out....nobody bloody uses them because it costs money...so all the forms polls and surveys are rubbish...the results are rubbish...and we end up with lots of other rubbish that no-one needs.... we are surrounded by idiots who want to save money...buildings and stadiums that collapse...that packet you cannot open..the tin opener that doesn't open anything..plastic door handles on cars...there is no reason for any of this...just employ people who understand what is needed and what is safe reasonable and intelligent....

I had shingles when I was about 10/11. If my memory serves me correctly, it\u2019s related to the Measles Mob.

The VA Hospital isn't in Australia it is Boston USA. Successive Federal, State and Territory Governments in Australia have been deliberately starving Australia's entire Health System of fundes for decades. It doesn't matter if they are from the Right or Left of politics. The Federal Government only wants to sqwuander untold hundreds of billions on Armaments and other Military equipment to "Protect Australia from foreign invasion" - they never actually tells us whom it is who is threatening Australia. The totally absurd thing about all this squandering of all that money, yes I know it is minuscule compared to the US and China, is that all of this equipment will be completely obsolete before any of it actually becomes operational! These absurd governments - since when does a country with just 26 million people need ONe Federal, 6 State & 2 Territory Governments? All are now hell-bent on squandering even more billions on Space Exploration! As if they haven't, along with all the rest of the World's Politicians, made a big enough mess of our World without doing the same to others. Spend all that money on Housing, Health and Education and stop warmongering. It is our Politicians and Religious Leaders who have been, and still are, responsible for All the Wars which have ever been waged. Decent, Honest, Ordinary people want no part of those wars, yet they are the ones who are sent out to fight and die for the wars the politcians have deliberately, and are at present trying to create.

One of my neighbours is not very friendly they turn there back when they see me lol I don't even know them some people are very strange

At a younger age, while I was still finding my feet - a glass bender. Yep, that was the job title. Worked nights in front of a very large and very hot rotating furnace kiln. We had long poles and we reached into the flames and placed flat sheets of glass onto the molded seats, they went around inside the kiln and then rotated back into view, perfectly melted, molded and shaped. We then took them out and placed them to cool off. It was quite complicated as there were 25 sheets of glass inside at any time. The molding seats came out with the glass and new seats had to be placed in and then new glass sheets had to be put onto them.5-man crew all working in harmony. If one man missed his task, then it would all stop. On a good night we would shape 2000 glass molded ceiling lights.

Not that I remember Walter, nothing awful or scary, for which I am grateful and I treated our young kids the same way = no not perfect but no mind games or scary lies. :)

Fully agree with you - the thing that really bugs me is that sometimes you do a survey, complete all the the questions so that they have all your information then the site kicks you out and the survey says "closed by user" zero points awarded

I moved to Melbourne from Sydney 40 years ago. I thought I was going to die. No friends, cold, wet. Anyway I am still here. I have kids now and grandkids. You need to keep social. Oh and I got rid of the husband! That greatly improved my life, regardless of where I live!

It's the New year and the Misandry Campaign is, once again, off and running. We hear, endlessly, about how Horrible, how Distrustful, how Devious, how Abusive, how Misogynistic men are. They are no longer allowed to express an opinion, they must never, ever dare to say they don't like some female, their clothes, their botoxed faces, artificially pumped up lips - the list of what men must not do and how cruel, unfeeling and hurtful they are is endless and on-going BUT we never, ever hear, or rather are never allowed to hear that Females can be every bit as bastardly as any male BUT challenge them and they will claim they are "Exercising THEIR Right to Freedom of Speech and Expression"! No apologies but Christina C's statement is typical misandrist nonsense, men are no more, nor less, likely to have ulterior motives than any woman.

NOPE< never ate as so called FAST FOOD as it was proved to sell rubbish, LOOK at al the change in health and size of people before fast food and after, tells you all you need to know, when u put rubbish in you body, you end up as rubbish. U R WHAT U EAT

At my old home address I got fed up with huge amounts of weeds growing in the raised garden beds so I decided to cover them with weed mats, however under the weed mats I placed flattened cardboard boxes and a year later the weeds began growing back; so YES things do grow on them. However when I looked there was no cardboard boxes thee meaning they had ALL broken down and turned to soil

Audra Mae and the forest rangers; forever young ' let it be me Ray La Montagne things we handed down Marc Cohn all great Sunday songs all regulars on my playlist in fact not sure if you have a spotify account but if you do look up pops top 100 covers there is hours of great tunes there it will keep your sunday laze easily

Yes and I cut them out of my life completely. We seem to be conditioned to cop this rubbish and look the other way etc. Not on. Some people are drama driven, others are using these tactics to keep you under their thumb with you thinking you can or should help them for some stupid reason. Life is too short to have to deal with these types of roller coaster relationships. Being on tender hooks waiting for the boom gates to drop and you have to appease them in some way. Cut and run...

I am 88 & on the way to not remembering everything but I am making the most of what I have while I can

No Thanks.Nothing could get me on a cruise ships as they are breeding grounds for germs and viruses and potetial death traps(Costa Concordia).Also you cannot choose your fellow travelllers and you are stuck with them fot the hole time.Not for me.

Why do most of the advertised lengths of surveys not reflect any accuracy. I have seen a 3 minute survey being 35 minutes when opened. Or some that say 160 minutes but end up being 15 minutes.

God, no!!!! Another BS scheme by the Governments, the Greenies etc. Whilst good in theory, it just doesn't work, the outlay is too much, damage not covered, lifetime is short. I have enough problems!!!

Not me, I learnt to go remove the idiot box, radio and limit internet, go to bed early, sleep like a log. and never have a problem waking up and being grumpy.

I wonder just how many people here on this forum are aware that since October 2021 that the Australian government can hack, quite legally, your social media accounts and alter and delete them for any reason whatsoever? It's called the Identify and Disrupt Bill which was passed at 2am on a Wednesday late in that month. Go and look it up on the Australian government website if you don't believe me. I was told this by my son who happened to be working with some Barristers who were visited by a man called Arthur, whom our previous female Premier in NSW had been in a relationship with at that time, just so people don't think I'm writing this with the view to commit some kind of fraud! I cannot watch MSM any longer because my research outside of this alleged "media sources" has led me to scientific research and resulting evidence leaving no room for me to conclude anything other than the following: that what is "news" content, at least as it relates to the"magic potion" killing and maiming people across the planet, is simply propaganda and theatre. I did not draw this conclusion without facts empirically derived from Researchers, Doctors and Scientists of many varied disciplines and I KNOW that my own government has lied and continues to lie about their own involvement in this charade. This is backed up in previously confidential documents detailing the Australian Military's involvement from decades ago of weaponising biological organisms through gain of function research and funding the same. I can say with clarity that freedom has never been SO under threat as it is now, not only because the government can come in and change your own words and remove them as they see fit, but because of the terms "misinformation" and"disinformation", but WHO decides this? I can see Big Tech's involvement but who among you are aware of the infiltration of WEF members, of whom Big Tech plays a leading role, in terminology used to discredit certain viewpoints. Just as the CIA coined the term "conspiracy theorist" to describe someone who thinks outside of the mainstream narrative and make them out to be "kooks", so too have Google, You Tube Twitter etc, who are all partners in this globalist agenda for a NWO where there will be no choices, no ownership of anything including your shoes, and certainly no privacy or freedom! If we lose the right to voice our own opinions today they will be gone tomorrow and NEVER return! If we don't want to live in a smart grid with cameras recording our every movement as it already is in China and adopt their credit score system, we all need to think about what it will be like for our children and THEIR children if we don't now say that enough is enough! Thanks for reading this.

I too have noticed how many organisations are now asking me to turn on my webcam. I do not allow it especially as I was told by an IT specialist that even if you do not have it switched on you can still be seen by others. That scared the bejesus out of me.

Neither. My love was the best and we loved each other having 52 years of happy marriage before she died 13 years ago

Definately take a stand and demand more rights. My place of work has warned that if we unionize, we will be fired.

does anyone think I can make 60,000 points in one month??!!! lets see shall we.. Your monthly earnings:AugustSeptemberOctoberNovember24,821 points34,498 points44,648 points57,389 points

I am alone and have depression and anxiety and no family. I do what I want when I want, but that doesn't fit into society. I might go to bed at 10 p.m. or 5 a.m. and sleep most of the day. I try to get my meds on time and eat once in a while. I hate routines. They were not made for me, but my counselors have been fighting me for years to get into a routine. If I'm happy, the world will have to adjust to MY schedule!

my old man's dog named "peka", and the horse named "paka " Those two were inseparable. when the old man passed away, I got to look after them, and they look after me. Paka fell into the hole and died of his injuries, I was heartbroken, and Peka did not want to leave the place where I burry Paka.she was so sad For two weeks, she stayed there.sadly she died of heartbroken. i burried her on the same spot, and planted acoconut tree on it, that coconut tree is still standing, 50years old coconut tree

No of course a Higher Price does not mean better value. Take a trip into one of those very up-market Department Stores and those dinky little Boutiques offering, supposedly Designer Gear, Exclusive Brands by Haute Couture Houses of Fashion. Grossly over Priced garments but ALL Made in China, India, Bangladesh and other slave-to super-low Income countries. We went in to one of those Department Stores, up the escalator and into the Women's Fashion Floor. There at the top of the escalator was a display of a well-know designer. Faded Jeans with selectively placed "Tears", Price? A not-so-cool $695.00! The top? It looked liked a woman's vest-cum-Tee shirt with a tiny single row of "lace" around the neckline. The price? An equally not-so-cool $435.00! My female companion unbuttoned the top couple of buttons on her blouse to reveal an identical top with exactly the same single row of "lace". Price at the Local Market? $15.00. Our local Op Shop sells faded Levi Jeans with naturally worn, strategically sited holes - just like the Designer jeans at $695 for just $10! - I know this because they were my jeans! The only reason I was not still wearing them was because I don't think it is appropriate for Mature Age Men and Women to dress as if they were in their late teens! Brand, Price and Designer Labels mean Nothing.

Playing hopscotch on the pavement outside our house, and rambling through the bush at our holiday shack. Finding unseen caverns and playing in them.

Call 90 Day Fiancé!!!

Depends on what the drug is and why they're taking it for. If it's for enhancing like steroids, then I think they should be banned but if it's for medical purpose, then it's ok.

Same here so I have had to unsubscribe from a lot of businesses now because it has become too annoying,I mean I don't need 3-4 emails from the same company reminding me there is a big sale on in the one day,I am not stupid lol...But yes I do shop a lot online because it is more convenient although I will only shop with trusted companies now after being ripped off one too many times.

It doesn't matter where you live as there is always some risk. Weather is only one of the risks. Volcanoes, earthquakes, landslides, rock falls, forest fires to name some things.

It only used to be rich idiots who did this...remember Yowie?...Yowie Bowie?...David hopes you don't....and the lovely Moon Unit...Frank Zappa's offspring?...they just changed their names as soon as they could...so can everyone else I guess...

A friend is someone who is always there for you to give comfort and support. We go through life but really you can count your "Best" friends on one hand. So many people these days are fake.

Have you noticed the decrease in weight and increase in price? Some frozen chips are 900g instead of 1kg. Biscuits have risen but the amount or size has dropped. Grow your own veges and you'll be surprised how much $$$ you save.

When all these countries get into space...in twos or threes...look down on the tiny planet...all work together, with a mixture of many nations... for the common good...they all bond...look at those happy faces on the space station...that is magic!!...that doesn't happen down here on Earth...and it gives me hope...nothing is too much bother...they would risk death for each other....maybe we should all be up there for a while..

No none. Wish I had it might motivate me to exercise more. The most I do is walk every day for approx. 30 min. with my dog. Used to love dancing the Rock and Roll. Now that kept me fit. Sometimes I wish I could go back to it again.

Take 20 litres of tap water, add a kilo of beer wort and a kilo of sugar, sprinkle a bit of yeast over it and wait a month, then bottle it... Then wait another month and drink it... Yes, tap water really does taste great..

And by the way Michelle K...are you either a licensed or disqualified parent?..it doesn't sound like it..does it?...if you haven't gone through the process.. at least once... you are just a totally useless rookie with no idea of what this massive commitment entails...come back when you have grown up...
