I've just received good feedback. Thanks, Katie.
If you are short on time, go directly to the Playstore or Istore and get the App....Emergency Plus. It is easy to operate.
It uses four ways of locating finding a location.
“Emergency
Plus” App
At a recent First Aid course, I learnt about a new method of precisely determining a location.
Emergency Plus App - uses what 3 words
The entire
map of Australia has been divided into a map of 3-metre grid squares. Each square has been allocated three words.
So, it is possible to navigate precisely to, say, our lounge room, our front
gate or the north western corner of our backyard. These each have a discreet
three-word label.
This is a
plus for a groups who exercise or walk together. If an ambulance or police are needed, tell the operator
the three words and, say, the ambulance will know precisely where to go. This means there is no need to send somebody to
the front to wave them down.
For example, the back entrance
to the Sandgate Town Hall – I’ve just looked it up is "seated-detail-libraries"
Here is the link:-
It was
suggested, at the First Aid course, that at a workplace, the three words could be posted, up on a wall,
in plain sight.
Meanwhile,
don’t take my word for it. Look up “what3words.com”
for yourself. You could try finding your own front door. It's fun.
While you
are at it – why not download the Emergency Plus app on your phone. Especially
helpful if you do a lot of highway driving or bush walking It gives
easy access to the emergency services, without the need of typing in
numbers. Just hit the icon.
You can share
your location using the three words.

Let's move our ribs in a special way.
We want to release the tension in our upper shoulders and release the tension in our ribs- mid chest.
It is easy.
Elbows tucked in - palms up
Rotate the arms out, slowly, leading with the thumbs.
Not even a habit, but a posture reset that is quick and easy.
Winter time is indoor time.
Here is a random list of my activities:-
What I am reading:-
Now that I am no longer physically and mentally preparing for a Federal election, I have stopped reading my newspapers so much - Though the New York Times is still a thrill.
I am reading "Still Life" by Sarah Winman. I love travelling to Italy with all its little quirks and its big art. This book is like a fairy tale for Italianophiles like me. I love "Ciao Bella" by Katie Langbroek, too. I don't want it to end. So I am dreaming about a trip to Italy next year. Vorrei andare in Italia.
I am singing:-
"Ombra Mai Fu" in other words, Handel's Largo. And in choir "This is me"
I am listening to:-
Andrew Huberman's podcast. He is a Neurobiologist and Opthamologist at Stanford. His Huberman Lab Podcasts are worth a listen. Here is a link:-

What I am growing:-
What a summer we had! Or didn't have! So much has gone wrong, weather-wise, that I am humbled by the failure of the plants - I'm licking my wounds a little. I am preparing to plant the Ranunculus for spring and summer flowers. I am watching my broccoli very closely. It is so cold, here that it is all growing very slowly.
