I'm seeking suggestions for resorts / places to stay in the southern region of Western Australia. Ideally featuring the following:

- Surrounding wilderness (basically, TREES, wildlife... nice places for walks)

- nice facilities such as spa

- up to ~$300 per night (for two people)

Thanks :)

I'm from Western Australia and wondering which self-publishing company is best to go with for a non-fiction book. I would prefer it to be based in Australia, but it doesn't necessarily have to be in WA. Thanks.

I'm researching for a story I'm writing, and was wondering if anyone knows about getting witness protection for reporting or helping catch a party committing crimes against animals? A website would be handy as well!

Have tried quite a few recipes but none have turned out very well ... is it best to cook the rice the night before?

Cheers

The instructions on my aquarium filter say to remove the carbon and fibre boards from the filter before 'medicating' the water - does this include conditioning?

We have a one-year-old female budgie who we adopted from a rescue centre after she'd been neglected by previous owners, so she's very nervous around people. I've been progressively (very slowly) taming her, offering her millet etc, which she's taking. Does anyone have any suggestions of more effective methods, or how long I should be spending training each day? How long has it taken for budgies to trust / become tamer?

thanks

We have a male eclectus (my sister's) and she is moving out in a couple of weeks, and taking the parrot with her. They'll be visiting a lot, but I was wondering whether it is OK to get a budgie. I know eclectus' believe their flock is their human family, so may think another bird is replacing it. Would this be the case, or would a budgie be OK?

Thanks

I understand it should be a gradual process (I am trying to get my rabbit to eat hay instead of pellets), but I am finding him digging out the pellets (I put a small portion in with chaff hay) and then refusing to eat the chaff. He does have vegetables as well. Is it OK to only refill the bowl once he's eaten the hay, or if he doesn't eat for a few hours, do I need to keep giving him pellets? I'm just not sure how the transition works when the rabbit just digs out what he wants. (Oh, he has teeth problems which are checked by a vet dentist regularly, which probably contributes to his fussiness. He is also quite old and has eaten mainly pellets in the past).

Thanks - hope that makes sense.

I have to do an assignment, rewriting an older piece in this style, but have no idea what it is. Any ideas?? Thanks

I've followed recipes for the Boston mudcake and a few other mudcakes, all using butter, chocolate, flours, sugar, cocoa, oil, eggs etc, but they always come out as a normal chocolate cake. How can I get the muddy consistency? Does it require gelatine (or an alternative?)

Thanks

Can Milo be used as a substitute for protein powder in cooking, or are there any other substitutes?

Thanks

What did you want to be when you grew up? As a grown up, are you this person or have you chosen a different path?

-Cheaper alternatives

-Available in Australia

-Your experience or opinion

-Thank you :)

For example: should you ask if there might be legal concerns with any place or people names mentioned in the story? Should you request the person to concentrate on anything in particular? Or anything else?

Thank you

I'm looking for vegetarian mints or fruit sweets (the hard type - for sucking, not chewing), that are low in calories, available in Perth. Any recommendations?? Thanks

Not the standard childrens' one - a weighted one (probably around 1kg) used for exercise/toning etc.

thanks!

How long can you hold it and how long should it be held for?

Western Australia is about to have a referendum to decide whether or not to introduce daylight savings.

I was wondering what people believe to be the main economic, environmental, health and social benefits and disadvantages of it.

Is there really a point to it?

Cheers.

For a female. These are the shorter rings (i.e. not for arm and leg combo exercises).

Thanks
