Just Cool

Amber @AmbiePam (125866) • United States 17 Aug

Mylot just has some of the most considerate people. Out of nowhere, a Mylotter did something nice for me, and it made my day. Sometimes you go out of your way for people and they show zero appreciation, and you wonder why you...

Fleur Lots of walking! Otherwise boat trips and I think there is a sea life centre. If you don't have transport I think you will be pretty much stuck in the area, but it's very beautiful of course. And very touristy.

Ban the Thin Blue Line

Jim Bauer @porwest (113641) • United States 13 Aug

I have long stood as a steadfast champion of those who wear the badge—men and women who daily place themselves between order and chaos. Yet the Thin Blue Line Flag has always struck me as a profound contradiction of the very...

Fleur This idea of 'high protein' everything is just another dietary fad. Any regular diet provides enough protein for a regular person.

Fleur Yes, I've used those in other countries and I quite like them because there's no issue over whether or not it's hygienic to sit on the seat. I'm not sure we should change things in this country to suit visitors though, but that's a whole different question.

Rich holiday, Poor holiday …..would you swap ?

Traceyjayne @Traceyjayne (13371) • United Kingdom 12 Aug

How high can you go

Judy Evans @JudyEv (387109) • Rockingham, Australia 8 Aug

We went to a social event at the clubhouse last night. It was low-key and consisted of beef and gravy in a bun. The cost was minimal and they’d organised a heap of easy, fun games to participate in after we’d eaten. They’d also...

Fleur It depends... I enjoy cooking for friends, and for family if I'm not in a rush. And of course it's best if they are appreciative! If it's just myself though then often I find it rather a pain and it always seems to take a lot of time. If it's just me I eat a...

Koalas and fingerprints

Judy Evans @JudyEv (387109) • Rockingham, Australia 12 Aug

I learnt something the other day that I thought was very intriguing. Koalas have fingerprints that are so similar to our own that even forensic experts are battling to differentiate between the two. The patterns of both are...

Fleur Are you having unusual weather as well? Maybe there's something wrong in the lakes, a bloom of poisonous algae or something? Maybe there's something in the street water that they need - I take it there is actually water there?
