Far North Queensland’s, Wayne’s World.
When it was first suggested that I write a column with real words that delivered what I considered awesome entertaining babble, but many have said are muddied thoughts, my belief was no way with my gold fish attention span – three seconds if lucky. Unbelievable but true tropicairnians, I have managed to come up with a third topic for Wayne’s World (bound to brain freeze soon) and create a new words. As the tropics warm, new

Now I keep all sauces- tomato, BBQ, sweet and hot chilli, to name a few, in the fridge as there is nothing better to pour cold sauce on ya snags. When it comes to my sangers, peanut butter stays in the pantry along with honey and all other spreaders that harden when cold, tearing up ya bread. Why would you put these in the fridge, they harden like concrete, in fact I’m sure that Mack the Knife sent a few to the ocean’s depths with their feet set in peanut butter direct from the fridge.
er my pancakes with double dollop cream, and the aussie favourite good old vegemite which is delish cold on a slice of cheese. To all those cold weather breeders, I even keep all my lollies and choccies in the fridge too. Last but not the least is a handyman money saver tip, keep ya batteries and super glues cold as well to add to their shelf life. Well pickle a greenie, yep better get a bigger fridge, or there’s no room for any form of beverage. Chill out Cairns.
Arts funding available ARTS and cultural practitioners of all genres are invited to apply for a share in grant funding to support their projects. Applications are now open for the Major Round One (grants of up to $10,000) as part of the Regional Arts Development Fund (RADF) program for projects that start after 15 January 2021. The RADF program is a partnership between the Queensland Government and Cairns Regional Council to support local arts and culture in regional Queensland. Arts and cultural organisations, groups and individuals are eligible to apply to the Cairns RADF program.

Cairns Mayor Bob Manning said the arts community was among the hardest hit by the COVID-19 pandemic. “The arts and our local artists contribute greatly to
the economic, social and cultural wellbeing of Cairns and the community,” Cr Manning said.
“As restrictions continue to ease, I am sure our arts community will be looking to funding programs like RADF in order to deliver projects and contribute to the recovery of this important sector. “The 2019/20 RADF Program funded 32 projects, which are projected to reach over 10,000 attendees and involve more than 250 participants and 110 volunteers, as well as creating short term employment across local arts industries. Arts and cultural activities that demonstrate a professional standard of work and contribute to the vitality and diversity of the arts industry in the Cairns region may be eligible for financial assistance.
RADF has helped hundreds of local projects to get off the ground, and RADF funding has a flow on effect across a number of business areas like fabricators, designers, photographers, and publishers. Each year more than 500,000 people engage with RADF projects across Queensland, ranging from public art installations, to local festivals and arts and cultural workshops, either as practitioners, participants or audience members. Minister for the Arts Leeanne Enoch said that the long standing RADF program would help to boost Queensland’s plan for economic recovery, supporting artists and arts workers with employment opportunities through $4.2 million in funding for regional cultural projects.
