How many cars do you have in your household?
8 years ago
For some people, having a car is crucial in order to take their kids to school, do the weekly groceries or commute to work.
For others, a car isn’t a necessity, but more of a convenience purchased to use for outings on the weekends or the occasional IKEA trip(!).
In your household, how dependent are you on your car(s)? Do you live far away and need a car for every family member, or do you live in the city and have no need for a car?

How does your household celebrate the sporting events of summer?
Comments (3)Only with my husband in front of the cricket! But we used to have all kinds of slip n slide in the backyard, a trampoline and even tennis with a net pulled between two trees!...See MoreDid your mum pass on any golden advice for household upkeep?
Comments (11)My mum taught me to have a good weekly housekeeping schedule which has served me well such as, change your sheets on a weekly basis, sun/aerate your blankets/doona regularly as it freshens them up and kills any bed mites etc.When cleaning do it with the windows and doors open to let in the fresh air. When finished cooking make sure to wipe down your benches, sink and even cupboards to avoid any sticky grime etc from building up which destroys your kitchen over time. If you do housework regularly it makes it faster to clean because it is maintained. Trying to clean something that has not been cleaned in a long time takes twice as long to clean properly. I think of cleaning a a good form of exercise. I always see housework as a good form of exercise....See MoreHow do you keep your home cool in summer?

Comments (22)Lyn Huppatz raises a very valid point with moving, particularly for those moving from the city to the country. It is very difficult to feel you are really living or belong in a place if you are not accepted and these barriers can be very difficult to cross. I've just traded city life for what I hope is some peaceful country living to see out my days and this aspect did cross my mind with thoughts of how to try to cope with it. Fortunately, I've chosen a wonderful place where everyone seems to be a newcomer, basically all escaping the city hustle and bustle so the welcome I've had is amazing with invites to join many local groups and clubs, I doubt I will have time for them all. Maybe instead of wondering about ourselves so much, we should also focus on how welcoming we make our own particular areas for newcomers - how much would we like others to say they have lived rather than just stayed....See More
