The country of services

In this country there are absolutely no limits for what services you can get to your home. You can live the laziest life without lifting a finger; except to the phone (unless one of your maids does it for you) and still have all the conveniences a city can offer.
Take-away-food is not so special, but in POA I'm sure you can order take-aways from a different restaurant every day of the year. And brought home, of course. Not strange that noone cooks, and many of them have a cook at home as well. And the driver will struggle around the traffic jam and parking lots, picking up the kids from school or tennis or parties while the nanny and maid are looking after things at home.
Well, that's one thing - then it comes to getting medicin delivered from the pharmacy (for free!) or let the kennel come and pick up your dog before you go away for the week-end. You can have your hair and nails done at home or having a massage-lady coming to your house (!!), music-classes and language-classes are taught at home. You can have someone coming every year to decorate your house for Christmas or Easter. And of course your personal trainer or yoga instructor!
You can have a barbeque-chef coming over to do your churrasco (if you don't have a private chef like I do). Instead of going to the store, buy meat and salad you just phone the guy from a churrasco-place and ask him to bring meat and salad and do the whole show. You can of course get one that dresses like the soccer team you cheer for :-)
I have never ever been to a lunch-party without servers running around with silverplates serving drinks and snacks and without a cook in the kitchen and waiters treating us like royalties. After the party you can take a nap because someone else is cleaning up. Not strange I haven't had any parties yet?
But tonight I saw the coolest thing ever - that inspired me to write this. I understood that our neighbour should have a party because I saw cooks and food being brought in this afternoon. But when we came home tonight, (after I had taken Sondre to the soccer and picked up Thor-Inge at work) I thought "what is this table and parasol doing outside our house?". Then we realised our neighbours had their own valet parking for their guests! Does that beat everything or not?
