I understand @TAB . People in the cities don't understand trying to access health services in the country or rural areas.
The waiting time for a Specialist in Melbourne might be 2 years. Add another year or two if you live outside the cities. And to be honest, a lot of the doctors and specialists we get are shit. They are like the 2nd hand choice for health professionals. But,for all that, we are still better off than a lot of countries out there.

Hi @MDT I hope you enjoy your coffee! I am about to get my day started. Get my body into some yoga then go for a walk later. Have to organise aircon for this house as it gets too hot in summer

@MDT how are you going mate? I got the yoga done and will do the next activity for the day. Have you ever tried roast dandelion tea? I used to drink lots of coffee but switched because coffee gave be the jitters and intestinal stuff. I also heard coffee lowers your IQ and increases fight vs flight so stopped drinking it. Roast dandelion tea tastes just like cuppacino but minus the side effects. I buy mine online from the Tea Hut in Australia

@MDT rock out with Fela Kuti. He was part of a huge afro-funk band and his music was very uplifting as well as political. He wrote some of the best music. The band was huge. I have his album The Best of the Black President. Not many people know about his music but it became more popularised with a recent Broadway Play. But yes if you want some genius funk from an absoute legend then go here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vnjIB6CxAlM
