Geraldine part 2, the township
Two weeks ago, I uploaded a video showcasing Geraldine's epic nature; this week, I uploaded its sequel, The Township.
Unfortunately, it didn't go as expected, and many of my plans were thrown out the window, Geraldine has one secret I never noticed while researching.
Everything is closed on Tuesdays! (Well, not everything).
I did my best and will make up for my failures in the future.

    As someone who is currently dealing with the healthcare system both public and private, you're completely on-point with this take. Even some private practices have multiple month long wait times for new patients and anything other than the most essential "you are dying right now!" treatments have 4+ month wait times in the public system. It really is a bit of a shambles right now and definately needs much more government funding and support.

    Bush Inn Centre, wonderful dead mall experience. Went there today for a walkthrough. Strange, unsettling music playing over the speakers. Shuttered up shops, remnants of the past, built in 1988. Below-ground carpark is claustrophobic and echoey. The closed shop you couldn't remember I believe was formerly 'The Main Skein' yarn supply store. Ninja Valley not open as of writing this. Will be interesting to see what effect it will have on this mall.
