A link to an article in The Age, about 2 weeks ago - some of you may have seen it.

It was interesting for us to read this article while we're here! Quite a few people have talked about Perrederr being their country. There's a lot of talk about country at the moment; I think it's because of the season, and "bush holiday" and people wanting to be "out bush", or just "bush". So, a patient today said she couldn't come for a blood test on Monday, because she'd be out bush. Fair enough. She feels well, and the kidney specialist wants her to have all these tests.. what's the hurry? From my point of view, only that the specialist is coming back next week, and it'd be good to have the tests done. But this is my priority, not hers, and I can certainly see it from her point of view, and understand her greater need to be in her country.
