Baboom or bust: why age is not a crime

Hold the phone, I'm practising the piano
Heckler THINKING of ways to fit everything into my busy life, I have come up with a practical way to save time: I practise the piano as I drive to work. That's correct.

Neighbour can't cop jolly whistle
Heckler A FRIEND of mine was threatened with an AVO on the weekend. Now, what image has just come into your head? Some violent, uncontrollable loser who lets his fists do the talking? Some drunken yobbo? Try...

Taking trivial matters to the extreme
Heckler WHY DO some people take things so seriously? I'm not talking about taking things seriously that should be taken seriously, like crime, health, education and family.

Pests need to be shown the door
Heckler NOBODY likes a door-to-door salesperson knocking on their door, so what's with the increase in this irritating activity? Door-to-door selling is illegal on Sundays, yet they still knock, catching...

Mission to fine smoker is really an indictment

Heckler
Mon dieu! It's a nightmare
Heckler Have you ever considered learning French? Don't do it, OK? Save yourself hours of despair and do something useful instead.

Sweet treat mean streets
Heckler Why is it that strangers feel that they can give my 18-month-old child lollies? At a restaurant recently, halfway through our meal a waiter walked up and handed my 18-month-old a chewy sweet.
Heckler
Committed to memory
Heckler As a woman of a certain age I am more than entitled to critically reflect on the chronic scourge of Expectations to Live the Life Well-Lived that women are subject to throughout their lives at each...

Utopia in suburbia
Heckler I live in the most perfect suburb in Sydney. Sydney's best-kept secret, if real estate is any indication.
