I try to remember to do it everyday. Stand on 1 leg for 1 min. Right, always, left, sometimes 30 seconds, but do manage on occasion 1 min.

I was at a Clients place, showering, and when we came out to the lounge, her Husband asked if I could pop down and remove an item out of the recycling bin, that a school kid had picked up and placed in the wrong bin. (He had trouble walking down stairs). As I went to go down, the...

They are an introduced pest in NZ. So it is open season all year round. In Rotorua, there is a shop that Americans love, as you can buy a lot of different possum fur articles. Especially the South Island ones, as they are a darker colour, verging on black. Also possum meat is...

I have seen in a couple of independent Grocery shops, photos of shop lifters caught on camera. A message underneath, `Do you know any of these individuals`.

They want to introduce some other species to eradicate the carp. Bit like the toad and beetle in sugar cane. Now toads are everywhere, and destroying the environment.

Same. I also sometimes use the paper bags, (mushroom bags) if I have forgotten my net begs for fruit and veges.

So agree. Though I have never had any desire to go to America, but now, especially with that individual, who is now president. Don`t even buy American produce.

There is, but unfortunately, there may be renters with different names living together, and so they rent under other names.

I squeezy the glass and walls of shower, then wipe dry with a cloth, after every shower. Hand basin, I wipe over every day, and once a week use a spray of Enviromental spray. Which is also used for the shower once a fortnight. Use a dry cloth to wipe over the mirror, every day due...

I don`t eat meat, don`t like it and never have, but don`t have a problem cooking for Family with meat. Plant Based meat is full of additives etc, is probably worse for you than meat. Tofu, falafel, legumes etc can replace meat, but certainly not that pretend meat.

Considering people will have a car load of take away food bought from Rockhampton, and we saw the containers on the roadside just outside of Banana. There are plenty of rubbish bins there. Makes one wonder what their own place looks like. When travelling it is not hard to have a rubbish...

Also, American products unless organic are Genetically modified. Thanks to monsanto, who also owns a major seed brand here.

Same. And there are cheaper Hotels, close to trains to and from the airports in the city. If your next days flight is extra early, its safer to pay the extra at a hotel walking distance to the airport.

It`s sad, but then shows how a community comes together and helps each other. Certainly wouldn`t happen in larger towns.

Unfortunately if the Psychiatrist is hired through a Provider (ie, Age Care), then unfortunately the Client has to get in touch with the Provider, tell them the problem, and hopefully, they will take that on board and look for another Psychiatrist. A lot depends on the Provider.

Well, our local Post Office and employees are great. We get our mail, parcels, can withdraw cash, and always with a welcome and smile.

But please, anyone who purchases a Wheelie Walker, please adjust the handles, as I see so many people bent over while using them. (Volunteer at a local Hospital.) I was in the lift with an elderly Gentleman, and noticed the above. I got talking to him, and he and his wife decided...

Really, at the end of the day, what is wrong with good old Australian, New Zealand and English recipes. If I see/read one that looks like American, don`t bother. We have some great recipes that aren`t Fat Loaded, especially in some of our old cookbooks, which can be played around with to...

There is always a call for Age Care Workers, and some Companies, will employ for Domestic only, but will help and encourage a person to get there Cert 3, in Age Care. I started when in my late 40`s, worked in a Hospital Nursing home for 5 years, while still doing my Cert 3. Then went to...

I agree with putting your Mother into Care. I too have worked in Age Care, both Residential and Community. It is hard work, but I could walk away at the end of the shift. Sounds like your Family don`t want to put your Grandmother into care as it cost. If they own the house, it is sold...
