    The term ‘sandwich’ comes from the Earl of Sandwich requesting his roast beef be placed between two slices of bread. This was so he could co to use playing some card game or something. So if it’s not on two slices of bread it’s not a sandwich.

    If you ask an Australian if they want a Burger they ill expect it to be on a round bun, If you ask them if they want a sandwich they will expect to be between to slices of bread. If you ask them if the want a roll, they will expect it to be on a long bun (like Subway).

      Feral cats threaten the survival of over 100 native species in Australia. They have caused the extinction of some ground-dwelling birds and small to medium-sized mammals. They are a major cause of decline for many land-based endangered animals such as the bilby, bandicoot, bettong and numbat. Many native animals are struggling to survive so reducing the number killed by this introduced predator will allow their populations to grow.

Ever worn gloves while gardening? If so, exactly what gloves have you found effective? I have a mix of washing up gloves & leather gloves I use but none really work, washing up gloves get holes easily from the rough work, leather gloves don't stop water penetrating, which means your hands end up covered with mud that gets under your nails as it penetrates the gloves in liquid & fine sediment form & I am yet to find an effective way to clean leather gloves once they have that mud inside them, multiple cycles in the washing machine gets rid of a lot of it, but not all & it's a huge waste of power & water to wash them over & over like that, hence why I try washing up gloves for gardening in wet soil or anything where I will be using a hose, but again I still tend to find my hands & under my nails covered in fine mud, due to the holes in the gloves making them leak.
      Gardening gloves are good for preventing injuries from thorns & sharp rocks in the soil, but really not much else

    Ryan, Australia has the worst mammal extinction record in the world. We have lost more native mammals than most counties complete mammal lists. 34 unique marsupials have been lost forever primarily due to fox and cat predation. This carnage has all happened since they were brought over with white settlement.

      True, very true. My 'pet' hate, is when cat owners say that there cat would never kill anything except for x y z (insert rat, mouse, bird non native of course). Cat's do not distinguish between native and non native, they literally don't give a rat's arse as it's their natural born instinct. Desexing and microchipping does bugger all except stop population explosions, they still decimate our local wildlife and spread disease.

    To give a small amount of explanation about the new "ute tax", it's basically how they're classified... so it's that they're a commercial vehicle, so if it's registered under a personal registration it's a higher bracket, if it's however registered under a business it is on a variable slope - a white collar business is higher than blue collar - and primary producers are a separate category (ie. Farmers).

    Part of the reason why utes are so common is their preferential tax treatment. Wondering how many of them are actually used for commercial purposes.
    Australia’s car manufacturing industry was driven away (see what I did there? Try the fish; I’m here til Tuesday) by the former conservative government. But the closure of factories started under the Hawke/Keating Labor governments in the early 1990s with the end of Nissan.

    Hi from a town close to Bunbury, Western Australia where the tornado hit. It was about 2km away from my daughters home. 8 homes have been written off and many more damaged. The local Police and Citizens, known as PCYC was hit, and is still a pile of rubble. Fallen trees still line many roads. I drove past today, on my way to visit my daughter. Thought it was lucky to miss the hospital just a few kms away.
    It's not the first one in my lifetime. One hit in the last 20 years ago but hit more closer to the centre of town and train station.
    In the same week we were blessed with some very beautuful southern Aurora Australis light show that went on for a few days.

    In Australia, cats get outside at night and go stalking our native wildlife, many of which are smaller than cats and are killed for no reason because the cats just hunt and not for food. Their owners already feed them. The cats that are feral are even worse and kill many more native animals every night. They have even stalked farm animals like chickens, and many native birds not just in the wild but in bird sanctuaries and zoos! Ao this post makes lots of sense.

      and birds are out in the day, not night, so it is the daytime roaming cats that decimate them! Their saliva is highly toxic to our birds & many other native animals, ANY skin break & the animal will be dead within 24 hours from the infection. Wildlife rescues ALWAYS administer antibiotics to ANY animal that has had any encounter with a cat, as it's their only possible chance for surviving

They don’t have to ban adult cats from going outside, they just have to wait for them to pass in 2-3 years. Unfortunately the life expectancy of outdoor cats is usually that short. Having said that our indoor/outdoor cat died last year at 17 years old. Good luck out there cats 🐈 🤞🏻❤️🫡
