@ENKELI Yes I've been reading a former senators comments about it and info received by him through FOI. Australia falls short of international agreements with fuel. The military conducted a mock exercise to see how our country would fare under global military tensions and we were not strategically placed in terms of fuel supply that was pre-covid. It is a topic that does not seem to be addressed by politicians. Its been simmering for years going by back dated articles on the internet yet all they care about is warships, tanks and missiles, not fuel supply

@TAB I've seen too many border patrol shows to try my luck buying from overseas! Plus what I want is not illegal, just not prescribed readily by my GP.

What med do you want prescribed @ENKELI? Are you having trouble with your GP?

Hello @Historylover wow that is amazing regarding great grandchild. I sometimes do a search on the internet and am a bit of a casual observer of the world slowly passing by and see my brother and his daughters online. I don't have anything really to do with my brother as we don't get along. I have wondered about the type of life my nieces are living. I don't particularly want to get involved. I might leave my brother a message every now and then to show I care but beyond that don't want complicating factors getting involved with family dynamics even if I am an aunty. Too much water under the bridge so to speak

@SmilingGecko my GP thinks I take too many pain meds. My neck is messed up and I take prescription pain meds to relieve the pain. I prefer to take ones that don't cause liver damage like the over the counter plus another ingredient do. I have anti inflammatories that help but don't take the pain away completely.

Yeah I think the international agreement is like 90 days worth of fuel now its 30 days @TAB
@ENKELI pain must be the worst scourge on humanity. I used to live with chronic pain! I think its good to avoid opioids because of the addiction and 0D factor. The pharmaceutical families that developed opioids are culpable. Had a friend on really potent painkillers and it was just way too much to have to live with, pain and those meds she had no choice to take plus pain management clinic.

@TAB as I mentioned to Gecko, pain medications not available over the counter are what I wish I could get.

@SmilingGecko I am willing to try anything when it comes to removing pain! I have a neck massager, heat pads, cooling pads, do exercises. I've had issues since 1997.
How did you get rid of your chronic pain?

Thank you @SmilingGecko. I don't see any other reason why there is a baby as her major background photograph. So, I'm feeling a little chuffed at the moment. Number 1✅. I wonder how many more to come. They are all taking their time. Seems to be the way with the younger generation these days.
I don't get along with my brothers either. And you know what? It's all because of misinformation and misunderstandings. So sad. I always look in on my family on FB and the internet generally hoping to get updated information—or to just 'touch base' and stay 'connected' with their lives. My older brother is a greyhound breeder and trainer so there is a bit of action there but no photographs of him. He seems to be doing quite well so I guess he's happy. Not an interest I share. We are three very different siblings.
