If your in pain you need relief. I found Michael Sette to be an excellent Physio. He gave good advice, he worked on my back for a sustained period bringing some relief. And he is very reasonable about charging. A couldn't recommend him too highly. He especially has an interest in Soccer

A really good quality "All you can eat" buffet. I enjoyed nearly everything selected. The Indian food was really authentic. Good service too. The drinks were a little expensive and the coffee and tea was surprisingly old fashioned offering only Nescafe instant. Fun decor and not crowded made this a better than expected venue for a birthday celebration.

This is the branch inside Doncaster Shopping Town. When you go in you queue up to take a ticket like at the Safeway deli. I found the ticketing system very slow and unnecessary given there was only a few in the bank. The tellers seemed removed from the customer and to me didn't appear to be in any hurry to serve. The whole thing makes you like just a number and not a valued customer

These guys are outstanding. All my previous experiences with their repairs has been first rate for quality and not too expensive. My most recent experience has made me a total fan because they have bent their own rules to help me fix my son's car for his up-coming 21st birthday. I can't thank them enough for their customer service and quality

On two recent but separate occasions I have hire equipment from Hire-It. Firstly, I hired a wallpaper stripper. It worked quite well but when I returned it I was given a really good tip for using it. A bit late I thought. Second, I hired some gas portable heaters and 9 kg cylinders. Again worked very well. I thought the gas cylinders were a bit expensive given I didn't use them up. The staff were excellent and overall the experience was good. Good enough to repeat when purchasing is out of the question

Approximate cost: $36-123

What I like about Bristol is that you can get everything you need to get the job done, although a little pricey, and you also get fantastic advice on how to do it from painting experts.

CUA is a great alternative to a traditional bank. The Doncaster office is very open and easy to access. The staff were extraordinarily helpful, knowledgeable and welcoming. Everthing they offered me seemed better than other alternatives I had been investigating. I told them my specific needs and they found a way to make it happen.

I was passing and notice a prominent sign showing a cheap fare to Cairns. Upon entering the store I was quickly attended to and the agent was very pleasant BUT the up shot of it all is that fare virtually didn't exist. So a wasted 10 minute search and vague apologies and perhaps a $249 one way would do when the sign said $109. NOT happy

Approximate cost: $109 or $249

This is a funny store. I found the staff to be somewhat disinterested. The store presentation is often messy. But they have undeniably good specials. Having saved up to 40 or 50% on many items I really needed you are far less aware of the customer service short-falls.

Approximate cost: $20-50

I have recently been attending Aquarena for a swim. But what I found was as well as a lovely indoor pool, it also has a heated 50m outdoor pool, a steam and spa area, lovely clean change rooms, a coffee shop to rival Gloria Jeans, beautiful grassed areas with bbq and a complete gym. Now individually these were leaning to the high price end of the market but as a complete package I thought it would be great value

Approximate cost: $69/month
