Is there a better a way to spend Saturday mornings than to join a free 5k run around beautiful parks and scenery, with a large bunch of like-minded friendly people. These parkruns are located all over Australia and other countries. They’re on faceboook too. This one is for my favourite parkrun at Albert Park

One of the nice services available in Australia is the after-hours GP service where a doctor does home visits. The case does not have to be an emergency. It just has to be after daytime office hours, so after 5 or 6pm you can get a doctor to come over for a consult. There are many of these services available online and the link provided above is just one of them. And very often the service is free as it is bulk-billed.

This is where people freely give away stuff they no longer need. They are on facebook too, but be sure to join the yahoogroup first by mailing your location and name to the subscribe address.
It’s easy to find free furniture here like bed, couch, tables, and at times appliances too. If you believe in the concept of recycling used stuff instead of just putting them in the bin, this is a good site to subscribe to.
