Western Australia’s main industry is mining, most of which takes place in the inhospitable northern parts of the state. Any towns close to the mines are small and accommodation is at a premium. Mining companies get around the...

Judy Evans Yes, that would be much the same. We met one man whose job it was to do all the washing, cleaning on the oil rig for those who stayed there for their shifts.

Judy Evans @LadyDuck Some of our FIFO workers come from our eastern states which is a 4-5 hour drive. They might be on more attractive contracts like 5 weeks on, 3 weeks off.

It’s been on my mind to write about how some diseases are seen as only affecting a particular age group. There have been two news stories recently where bowel cancer and stroke have been misdiagnosed in younger people. These...

It all makes sense now. There are art murals all along the Cherry Creek Trail that runs through the Denver, Colorado Metro Area. Denver Public Art says that if you walk or ride your bike for an 11-mile stretch, you’ll see 48...

The image is not that of a rat but of a rakali. It’s an Australian marsupial and often mistaken for the common brown or black rat. It was once called a ‘water rat’ but ‘rakali’ was adopted because of the negative connotations...
