Massage Therapy

So here in Australia we have these little shops full of nice Vietnamese people who gave you really really hard Chinese massage it's all elbows forearms. So in the local shopping centre there are probably four of these shops now it's a great massage it really works you might be a bit bruised for a couple of days after but apparently no worse than the local physiotherapists is likely to make you feel the really good thing is its cheap it's quick and it does get all the knots in the your back or shoulders or even in your feet

Hard Rubbish

So a big advancement in Australia well in Melbourne at least is the Hard Rubbish collection from the street. Put your large rubbish, old furniture and outdated technology out on the footpath and its collected by the council. Better yet they give you a week or so's notice so the neighbours can pick over your leavings and recycle anything useful.

In a place where the Fire Brigade and Ambulance charge if you call them out - I am not sure the free redistribution of old telly's, pc's and dining suites replaces real public services; but it certainly provides fun with spot the best shelving unit or printer you can salvage for cartridges!
