Hi all, It's been a while; good reading all the success updates too :) Bit of advice please from mothers, fathers, guardians: Is a 2yo capable of manipulation? I think yes, although in very basic forms ie tantrums etc to get own way. What techniques have people used successfully to...

hi all, After hearing that sad, sad story about the family whose two boys died from carbon monoxide (or is it dioxide...I'm no scientist) poisoning from a leaking gas heater I get slightly freaked out. We always get tired when we have the heater on. I thought it was just b/c we were nice &...

Hi all, I have searched but can't find exactly what I want. When you put someone on your ignore list, does the thread just show you all other posts except theirs? If you've been put on someone's ignore list do you get an alert telling you that or would you just never know? Thanks...

Hi all, We will need to use our LOC to pay for a few months of childcare. I understand this will 'contaminate' the LOC, but we have no other choice at the moment except credit cards or selling some shares. We will repay the money to the LOC a few months down the track. How difficult...

Hi all, We have a flat in Milton (Bris) just off the Park Rd cafe/restaurant area. It's on the 1st floor & I've just read my contents insurance policy which states I'm not covered for flood. (It's fully furnished). :eek: I'm not panicking as it's pretty pointless at this stage. :o Does...

Hi all, Noticed the above when I last went online. Didn't end up inputting anything as it seemed that you save the info to their site (under your login). Felt like it would be giving wesuck access to info they didn't necessarily need to know. In a sense, giving them ALL our financial...

The song that starts off, 'I saw mummy kissing Santa Claus, underneath the mistle toe last night...' has bothered me a tad. Never thought of it this way as a kid but, is mummy having an affair with Santa or is it daddy dressed up? Can't remember how the rest goes. Also, does anyone else feel...

To anyone who read my earlier post about Rental Express & feeling somewhat 'un-cared' for.... I'd like to send out a big thank you to Jason rose (Operations Manager) in Bris :D He called me to let me know what had been happening & I very much appreciated his personal touch! So thanks...

Hi all, Hoping someone can assist: One unit has exclusive use of a courtyard attached to it, but it is deemed 'common property'. (They have a locked gate so no-one else can access it). Works on a tree in this courtyard have taken place as it was ripping up pavers & affecting the...
