Things I'd do if I could just pop home for a few days

(in no particular order)


[visiting friends and family is a given, no questions asked, so not included here]:

* go to the doctor. Free healthcare is a wonderful thing: self-diagnosis via the internet is scary and depressing

* ditto the dentist. Although not free, no-one would be trying to make me have a root canal.

* eat Binkas all-natural snakes or jelly babies. Hmmm.. maybe why I need aforesaid trip to dentist? LOL

* visit Hung, my amazing acupuncturist

* go to kickboxing with my girls (although this would be made harder by the fact the dojo actually closed - hey to Sensei Jo and Shihan if you're reading this)

* go to the beach and the women's baths at Coogee, and snorkel at Clovelly.

* visit the Korean baths. A long soak in the ginseng bath followed by a full body scrub, a facial and shiatsu massage.

* get my hair cut by Zaya at Cazac

* eat tons of seafood from the fish markets

* buy a case of sirena tuna in chilli oil to bring back here

* listen to the sound of the wind whistling through the bamboo in the botanic gardens

* do the cliff walk Coogee to Bondi via Waverly cemetery and Bronte

* Smell the salt air and feel salt water on my skin while feeling the sand under my feet and between my toes

I'm sure I'll think of more...
