Singaporeans will be familiar with NEWater, which is water reclaimed from sewage. Locals call it "Pang Sai Zui".

Yeah, you'll be drinking to that too.



Drought stricken Australia is arguing now about adopting recycling waste water.

But, did you know that we have been already "that" already?

Surprised?!

Dr Stuart Khan of UNSW reminded us that the Penrith sewage plant discharges daily into the Nepean River, which then flows into the Richmond drinking water plant and processed for city consumption.

How are you feeling now? Go fill up a glass of water and see if anything look or smell funny.

I ran away from Singapore and still get into shit like this. Argh!



Feel like having a holiday again. Who is game for a road trip?

How about going to Bungan Beach, which is tucked between Bungan and Mona Vale heads.

I heard that the northern end is pretty popular with surfers.

Nearer to home, we can go to Store Beach at Manly, which is also a breeding ground for the endangered fairy penguins.

As it can only be reached by water, we can rent a kayak from Manly Kayaks next to Oceanworld (from $15 an hour), and paddle across the bay to this gorgeous little beach.

Before I forget, I found myself an interesting part time job - as a mystery shopper!

I will go to a major international retailer this weekend, pretending to be a customer. I'll go shopping there, ask them heaps of question, assess their service quality and get paid at the same time. How cool is that?

This must be the dream job in the world for the ladies, where retail is not therapy!
