sam-1966 commented on Recommend a Stand Mixer
Kenwood mixers are great - but the older ones are the 7 series, and newer are the 9 series and attachments aren't compatible between these…

Ours is manual. Locked keys under the house and used a letter opener to get in through the garage door.

sam-1966 commented on Private Prescription Blood Test - Medicare
It's possible that just didn't tick the 'bulk bill' box that most doctors do tick.

Like the people who bought live Christmas trees and returned after Christmas because they were dead.

>We both have diferent provider sim's also. Don't forget that you can now get dual sim phones and a second sim with pay as you go Aldi…

sam-1966 commented on Recently Signed up to Telstra and They're Saying 5-7 Days for Port-in, Normal?
Maybe there's lots of Optus customers that are porting to Telstra at the moment...

>My understanding is that all approved Australian phones SHOULD be available to call 000 without any SIM, either physical or eSIM. The…

Hey, Ultrondev - I will update. Just wanted to say I've used it a few times to merge PDFs into a single document and it is great.

sam-1966 commented on Accidentally Double Booked It My Name
We have just come back from a trip to Adelaide. It was only just before we left that I realised I had booked with the 'shortened' version…

sam-1966 commented on Tipping Culture in Canada - What Are The Norms?
My sister went to Canada and the US few years ago on an extended trip and took 'Furry Friends' and 'Freddo Frogs' with her as something…

sam-1966 commented on Reasonably Priced Decent Hotel in Sydney with Night View of The Harbour Bridge
My sister did the 'Roar and Snore' at Taronga Park. Dinner bed and breakfast with outstanding views. She absolutely loved it and a young…

sam-1966 commented on Super.com Travel Booking Any Good?
Calling the hotel directly and telling them the prices offered often gives you same or slightly cheaper booking directly.

That's great news. Take care with your recovery.

I'd be contacting Weber themselves as it might have been faulty... or there might be another reason your burners are failing. >After a new…

sam-1966 commented on Weber Family Q Replacement Burner
We've found Weber to be very helpful with parts - and I agree with Randxyz123 - I think in a case like this, genuine parts are a must.

thisusernameistaken on Accurate Fitness Tracker (Notably Heart Rate, Secondary Sleep Tracking)

I don't think the SE does sleep tracking. I have the 10 and have been very happy with it - and my iPhone had to be sent away for repairs…

sam-1966 commented on Robot Vac Repair - out of Warranty - Go Back to Brand or 3rd Party? (Ecovacs Deebot T9+)
Sometimes I think if these robot vacuums could speak they would sound exactly the same as Marvin from Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.

sam-1966 commented on Power Lift Recliner for Recovering from Injury
Buy second hand if you can unless you find a good rental option. My father bought one brand new and it had six months use - purchased for…

>The podiatrist told us NEVER to buy second-hand shoes or hand-me-downs unless unworn, as they have usually taken on the shape of the…

sam-1966 commented on Should I Take out Private Health Insurance
Also - where on earth did you find private hospital insurance for $100 pm? We pay far more than that for a couple on top cover.

Because the private hospital was ghastly. On top of the shared room/bathroom issue, the shower actually had black mould in it! The only…

sam-1966 commented on Minimum Age to Own a Car - Queensland
We did try and sort through the Qld Transport website - I even stuck my tongue out and tried having different facial expressions, but could…

My husband did contact QT, found that the car can be registered in the under 18s name. Hard to discuss as husband is the executor of his…

My apologies - and I can't edit now. I wanted to go from private to public. Desperately.

sam-1966 commented on Should I Take out Private Health Insurance
I was in a public hospital last year. For 27 days in their ICU. This was a private room. When I was 'stepped down' to a ward, it was also a…

Shall do - going to siblings, one over 18, the other 17. Thanks for your help.

Thank you so much, Spackbace!

sam-1966 posted a forum topic Minimum Age to Own a Car - Queensland
I am hoping that someone can point me in the direction of finding in writing the minimum age to own a car in Qld - need to transfer a…

sam-1966 commented on The Best Chip Brand
I wish the Red Seal brand was still around. Remember going on a tour of the factory at the foothills of Mt Coot-tha.

sam-1966 commented on Going to Bengaluru for One Week for Work
My daughter went as part of her nursing degree - she bought some lovely linen clothes and alterations were incredibly cheap. She and a…
