Yesterday’s Australia

Fondue parties

Who remembers fondue parties? Member @starrysnan does and shared their delightful memory, ‘You could have friends around, make up sweet or savoury sauces, and "cook" your own little pieces of food. It was great fun.’ It was all the rage in the ’70s when four to six people sat around a table, dipping bread or beef chunks into a warm bowl of melted cheese or sauce. Were you invited to fondue parties back in the day? If you have stories to share, do so on the Nostalgia/Yesterday’s Australia forum!

Hospital & Extras policies start at just $3.20 per day with no lock in contracts*.

It’s no secret that the current cost of living is hurting us all, and we need to find ways to ‘cut the fat’ wherever we can. But did you know that in 2023, the cost of health insurance increased by an average of $167* for Aussies over 65 who weren't with one of the 'big 5 funds'? For those older Aussies who were with one of the 'big 5 funds', their health insurance increased by $194*.

What you may not realise is that there are government rebates out there that could save you hundreds of dollars per year on your cover. For eligible Aussies, the starting cost of a combined hospital and extras cover comes in at $22.54* a week, or $3.20* per day once the rebate has been claimed.

How stunning is this photo shared by member @Jooliejazz? It’s only one among a series of photos they posted on our forum with the caption, ‘A pair of Banded Lapwings have taken up temporary residence in a nearby park while they hatch their eggs. A first for me, so I couldn’t resist taking some photos.’ I hope those eggs hatch successfully! Thanks for sharing, member @Jooliejazz!
