Little did I expect to pet a friendly skink when I walked down the stairs to Lighting Ridge Opal store... Staffed by friendly, thoughtful and informative staff, this is a gemstone store plus a small zoo. I was given a wonderful demonstration of how opals are polished and graded. This is a family business with many of the folks who work there descended from the opal miner founder. I found their prices competitive and their quality, high. Bought a lovely pair of silver + opal ear rings + pendant with a stylized kangaroo setting. They were also very helpful with a disabled friend who accompanied me.

For those of us who have a long history of reading science fiction, Montour is a great resource. One friend of mine visits every Friday to catch up on the latest issues. I have bought my children the classics, such as "Starship Trooper" and Isaac Asimov's "I, Robot.". The term "classic" may not be immediately associated with SF, but I am sure in years tocome SF will be assoicated as one of the defiing features of modern literature. Minotaur has everything you want in SF; just keep browisng and you will find something new.

On a recent business trip to Melbourne, I had an afternoon to look around before flying home. I was on the search for xmas gifts and stumbled on this great little shop. I asked some dumb questions but all were answered with such kindness. I purchased a sample pack, but then got home and read more about the company. I am impressed that it is locally developed and operated. I decided that there are some small changes I can start to make with the environment in mind. As a result, i have just ordered more stuff as xmas gifts and cant wait for it to arrive. Support local and ethical!

I was visiting from the US and in search of a clean beauty destination in Melbourne. I was so happy to find One Fine Secret pop up in my Google search results. They are located on the 3rd floor of an office building and have created a beautiful space to showcase the various clean beauty brands they carry. Kayla (owner) is incredibly knowledgeable and takes the time to explain ingredients to you, listens to what your skincare needs are, and allows you to test the various products. They carry both Australian and US brands, but I was primarily interested in the Australian ones and focused on those. Check out their website to see the full list of items they sell. Thanks Kayla!! I'm happily enjoying my products now!
