Wheaters are sharing hilarious memories from the CA column, starting with a trip to a pub and baradine years ago. When someone asked about wines, the bartender said they had both kinds, red and white. They even had to request glasses after buying a bottle. Old home remedies spart plenty of stories, too. One reader remembered Icorn's remedy, used for everything from cuts to sore throats, but its tongue so badly kids hid their injuries to avoid it. Another recalled methylated spirits on wounds, because if it burned, it must be working, followed by caster oil for stomach issues. Some folks urged everyone to toughen up amid the complaints. Meanwhile, empty shells at a hardware store caught attention, with jerry cans sold out like during COVID shortages. Lighthearted mishaps got laughs, like a friend who fell into an upholstery machine but is recovering well. On fashion, ties for men face scrutiny compared to women in high heels, with calls for more rebellion against norms. Creative reuse is winning out though, as readers turned old ties into quilts and shopping bags, giving new life to forgotten neckwear.

That wrap Sydney news today brought to you with AI. I'm Corey with The Story.
