Tags don’t bother me, but the stamped/printed labels are a nightmare, and I can’t cut them out. Within 30 minutes of putting one on, I am an itchy, hivey, allergic mess. I guess it’s the ink. I iron...

How long have you been on Letrozole? Because what you’re describing is exactly what it did to me, and why I don’t take it any more.

And I was told ibuprofen was fine. There’s no consistency, is...

Not going to help at all, but I donate every fortnight to Stewart House (www.Stewart house.org.au). We send kids there every year for two weeks, and it’s just amazing.

My principal often emails in the early morning (like 2 or 3am early). He doesn’t expect instant responses, but that’s when he’s working so that’s when it happens. It’s not a huge issue in my school.

Our mandatory trainings don't let us fast forward. When you've been teaching 20+ years, child protection isn't something new. I let the training run in the background while I do something else. ...

That's not teaching. Teaching is a craft as much as it is anything else. Good teaching comes from knowing your students and what they need, and finding ways to give it to them. I'm sorry your admin...

My daughters university uses it. Judging by the colourful language I hear coming from the study, I don’t think it’s stress free.

I love Are You Being Served. I watched it as a child and teen with my parents and, on rewatching it as an adult, was stunned that they let me watch!

The one time I tried American-style ketchup it was gag-inducingly sweet. Australian-style tomato sauce (which is not a pasta sauce) is quite tart. I find American-style bread (as used in Subway)...
