After another night of being awake for what seemed many hours, I'd like an idea or 2 of how to get to sleep? When I was single I used to put the light on and read for a while, but dont want to do that nowadays as it disturbs my partner, so I get up and have a cup of tea. I even go for a bit of a walk outside if the weathe...

Has any one had the Barmah forest or Ross river viruse? If so do you still have the side affects? The Barmah forest one got me about 12/14 years back & each year at this it gives me hell.

Here in Canberra my partner and I have anything from 1 week to 3 weeks wait for an appointment with our doctors. We'd heard about a doctor shortage in the bush so were very surprised in Katherine NT, when he got an appointment in 2 hours! How long do others have to wait, and where are you?
