Ran into John at the Markets. He reckons there is a man living in Corrofin St Ferny Grove who has done bicycle repairs for years. We have some bikes needing repairs. Will try to find out more.

I also bought a scooter in good working order for the princely sum of $3. Wish I was younger to really ride a scooter. They seem like such fun. We have a friend who is 30 and he makes it his mode of transport all over Brisbane.

There is a skateboard/ scooter specialty shop in the shopping centre in Everton Hills on Camelia Avenue.
