Bulk Billing Doctors = Sickies... GP's with a gap are for when your really sick... which is hardly ever for most people. I haven't been to a Gap doctor for over 5 years... I'm at the bulk Billers at least 8 times a year ;)

All you negative folk out there, try living in a rural area! Wouldn't swap it for the world - everything the first comment said and more :))))
By the way, our loal bakery has pies to die for (according to my hubyy cos I'm a veggie anyway lol).
I LOVE AUSTRALIA - my home (originally from UK) for over 5 years and now proud to say an Aussie citizen

Good for you.
I'm sure people would find it even harder out in the country!

I adore aspects of the country but even when I find myself out there it is always on my terms, and they tend to be good ones. (I am not sure I could live a 'bog standard' life out there...)
