New Mayor, Deputy Elected to Lead Penrith Penrith Councillor Todd Carney was recently elected as Mayor of the City for the first time at September’s Ordinary Meeting of Council, with Councillor Mark Davies elected as Deputy Mayor. Councillor Carney succeeds Councillor Tricia Hitchen in the role and will serve a one-year term as Mayor, taking him through until the Local Government Election in September 2024.   The shortened term is a result of the one-year postponement to Local Government Election in 2020 due to the pandemic, with the cycle returning to its prescribed four-year term again in 2024. Born and raised in Western Sydney, Cr Carney was elected to Council in 2016 and calls Glenmore Park home with his wife and three children. Starting an apprenticeship as a heavy vehicle mechanic at the age of 16, he is now a Service Manager for a leading international crane manufacturer and has served as an electorate officer for the then Lindsay MP, David Bradbury. The newly elected Mayor thanked his Councillor colleagues for the opportunity to serve in the role. “I have been asked what my priorities will be over the next 12 months – that’s a hard question to answer as we have a list of delivery programs underway with projects like Regatta Park, City Park, our day-and night-time economies, the Gipps Street Recreation Precinct and our WestInvest city transforming projects,” Cr Carney said.   “However, like my predecessor Cr Hitchen, I have a keen focus on St Marys and what opportunities we can leverage there with the (Western Sydney Nancy-Bird Walton) Airport and metro rail line.”   Cr Carney said Council has started to lay the foundations for a strong future through the St Marys Structure Plan but there is more work to be done.   “St Marys Central Park will be fantastic, and we have an opportunity to build on this, to give people a place where they can work, live, and play. Our community is crying out for dining options, and we also need to continue discussions with the business community… we need to get the planning right.”   Outgoing Mayor Tricia Hitchen thanked those who had helped her during what she recalled as “a memorable Mayoral term.” Cr Hitchen said she was in the role just a few short weeks before the City was devastated by a wet weather event, causing severe flooding in parts of the region and ‘major’ flood warnings for the Nepean River. During her term, she saw residents reunite at Council events that reactivated Penrith and St Marys, and she opened key pieces of infrastructure up to the community. Cr Hitchen called for the delivery of the City’s first accessible changeroom, which opened in 2017 along High Street. There are now six changing places facilities throughout the region, with more to come.   Her passion for supporting domestic violence victims, which stems from her 25 years of service in the NSW Police Force, led to the Mayoral Charity Ball which saw Council and the community band together to raise a remarkable $60,000 for The Haven – Nepean Women’s Shelter in May.   “I will be forever grateful to everyone who contributed to help so many of these local women and their families on the path to a safer, brighter future,” Cr Hitchen concluded. Cr Mark Davies was elected as Deputy Mayor at the September Ordinary Meeting. Cr Davies joined Council in 2004 and served as Mayor from 2012-2013.

As the nation halts for a minute of silence at the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month, Australians from all walks of life will recognise and honour the profound sacrifices made by our armed forces throughout history. At 11am on November 11, 1918, the guns on the Western Front fell silent after more than four years of continuous warfare. Originally known as Armistice Day, it was renamed Remembrance Day after World War 2 to commemorate those who laid down their lives in both global conflicts. Tim Badger, Vice President of the Penrith RSL sub-Branch, perfectly captured the emotion underlying this solemn ceremony. “Remembrance Day to me is a time to reflect on the 102,820 sailors, soldiers, and airmen who over the last 110 years made the ultimate sacrifice and died fighting to protect this great nation of ours. It’s also a time to reflect on the hundreds of thousands of men and women who emerged from conflict injured, both physically and mentally." But its significance extends beyond mere remembrance. “It’s a day where we can pass a baton on and educate the younger generation about the significance of history, and the importance of cherishing peace. It’s an opportunity to foster a sense of gratitude, empathy, and respect for those who have served and continue to serve our nation today,” said Badger. This year, the Remembrance Day service will be held at Memory Park, in Penrith. Attendees are encouraged to arrive by 10:30 am, with the service commencing at around 10:40 am. The service will conclude just after 11:00am, followed by a morning tea and refreshments for veterans and their families at the Penrith RSL. The Penrith RSL sub-Branch is dedicated to serving veterans and their families, with initiatives like Guitars for Vets fostering camaraderie, the FWD Club, and the Penrith RSL Pipes and Drums – of which over 60% of its members are veterans. The sub-Branch plays an instrumental role in keeping the spirit of service alive. “We have a little over 460 veterans and members at the moment, and its growing which is fantastic,” Badger said proudly. Amidst the formalities and ceremonies, the underlying message of gratitude and honour is clear. And as we stand in silence, honouring the brave souls who fought for our freedoms, we are reminded of the importance of unity, peace, and gratitude. We will remember them. Lest we forget. r Memory Park War Memorial | Image supplied by Tim Badger

Young BMX Rider Shines at 2023 BMX World Championships Emu Plain’s prodigy, Jobe Degnan, has had an amazing year on the track, after recently returning from the BMX World Championships in Glasgow, in Scotland. The event gathers the globe's top amateur riders to showcase their skills. At just 10 years old, Jobe fearlessly competed in both the 10 Boys and the Cruiser 12 and Under categories, impressing spectators and competitors alike. “Jobe is 10, so he had his work cut out for him in the cruiser,” said Jobe’s father, Matthew Degnan. Despite this, he secured 6th, 5th, and 4th positions in his three qualification motos. While he narrowly missed advancing to the finals, he commendably ranked 37th out of 64 participants. For the 10 Boys 20-inch class, the rising star delivered an exceptional performance. "He won all 3 of his qualification motos and was placed equal 1st with 3 other kids going into the finals,” Matthew said. But the unpredictable nature of BMX meant a slight mistake at the start of his 1/8th final put him on the back foot. Jobe gave it his all, fighting back to a 6th place finish. “So that was his campaign over, it’s a cruel sport. One little mistake and it’s all over,” he said. Apart from the racing, the Glasgow trip was monumental for Jobe for other reasons. "Travelling to our first world titles campaign was an awesome experience. Jobe had never travelled outside of the country before, so the excitement he showed about the flight and the upcoming experience was good to see,” said Matthew. Jobe's achievements aren't confined to the international stage. This year, he has won both the NSW and ACT state series. He has several wins in series races and events at local tracks under his belt, and in November, he'll be competing in the Australian titles, aiming to exceed his third-place finish from last year. Jobe's commitment to the sport is unwavering. He trains intensively, balancing BMX with football during winter and gym sessions. “He absolutely loves his sport and always give 110% effort,” he said. Matthew expressed gratitude to the community: "BMX at this level is not cheap as you can understand, and we would not be able to do what we do without some assistance from friends and local business. Aaron from Truck Nation gave a generous donation towards our worlds campaign, and All Sydney Waterproofing assisted with a donation as well, so a big thank you those people."

Connecting with Kids: The Power of Love Languages Have you ever considered the power of Love Languages when it comes to connecting with your children? The concept, originally coined by Dr. Gary Chapman for couples, has evolved into a valuable tool for parents and caregivers to build strong, loving bonds with their children. Understanding Love Language Love languages are all about how individuals both give and receive love. Identifying your child's primary love language, or a combination of two, can significantly benefit your parent-child relationship. It ensures that your child not only knows they're loved, but also feels it deeply. The Five Love Languages and Their Application to Children: 1. Words of Affirmation: Expressing love, praise, appreciation, and encouragement through words. Connect through words of affirmation by saying "I love you" often, acknowledging your child's achievements, leaving sweet notes in unexpected places, and sharing what you love about them. 2. Quality Time: Providing your child with focused, undivided attention shows you love them and value their company. Connect through quality time by engaging in conversations, enjoying activities, scheduling one-on-one time, and prioritising family meals. 3. Physical Touch: Children thrive on loving physical touch, especially during infancy. Connect through physical touch with hugs, kisses, cuddles, playful activities like wrestling, holding hands, and story time. 4. Gifts: For some children, receiving a physical gift symbolises love and affection. It's about the thought and effort behind the gift. Connect through gift giving by selecting items aligned with your child's interests, surprising them with thoughtful gifts, and creating treasure hunts. 5. Acts of Service: Doing things for your child to make them feel cared for and special is another love language. Connect through acts of service by preparing special meals, engaging in their favourite activities, assisting with tasks, and completing their chores. Understanding your child's love language is a valuable tool to show love and nurture, and it helps you notice when your child is expressing love. Being aware of your own love language but responding in your child's love language can further strengthen the parent-child bond. Take the Love Language Quiz with Your Child. It's a fun way to connect and learn something new together: https://5lovelanguages.com/quizzes/love-language r Image: www.pixabay.com

Reach for the Stars: A Hub for Aspiring Artists in Emu Plains

In the heart of Emu Plains lies a vibrant and dynamic art studio that has been shaping and moulding creative minds for over 7 years. Reach for the Stars - Creative Art Classes, established by Na’ama Atzmon-Simon, is a sanctuary for students passionate about the arts. " I officially opened Reach for the Stars - Creative Art Classes in January 2016, after a couple of years of teaching as an art educator at Lewers Gallery near the Nepean River," said Na’ama. The studio, which initially saw Na’ama moving between council halls with equipment in tow, found its permanent home in 2017. " I converted my garage into a colourful, friendly, and well-equipped studio which became a permanent home for the business," she said. With a rich educational background that includes a BA of Art Education from The College of Fine Arts, her diverse experience ranges from teaching workshops through Penrith Council to instructing young adults on the Autistic spectrum. “I had a dream for years to create a space where I could teach children and youth in a way that fosters creativity and brings artists, and content, that I feel is meaningful for the appreciation and enjoyment of art,” explained Na’ama. Located at 28 Mortimer Street, Emu Plains, the studio offers classes for primary and teen students. "In the primary classes we have a different theme every term which we explore in various ways using painting, drawing, sculpting, construction, design projects, mixed media, collage and inspiration drawn from art history," she said. Meanwhile, the teen classes allow students more autonomy. "They have free access to the extensive materials and tools collection in the studio, which they can use to create their own artworks in any media of choice," she added. All classes are mixed age, and mixed ability, however primary classes are aimed at kindergarten-year 6, while teen classes cater to year 6 and up. “It truly is a case of the sky's the limit here and students are encouraged to run with their passions and explore at their own pace what they want,” Na’ama explained. For those interested in joining classes or have further questions, visit www.reach4stars.com.au or send Na’ama a text on 0413 694 030. First lessons during the term are free trials for new students, and Creative Kids vouchers are accepted. r A mixed media lesson inspired by Picasso's Weeping Woman painting. Image: Supplied

Regentville RFS Welcomes Firefighting Recruits

New

With a potentially threatening fire season ahead, the Regentville Rural Fire Brigade has recruited 11 new members to their team. Whilst brigade activities slowed down following the end of the recent flood events across NSW, the new firefighters had the opportunity to go full steam ahead on their training and maintenance. Firefighters Julian, Alicia, Amy, Mikayla, Kaitlyn, Josh, Anne, Ben, James, Matt, and Tara are well underway learning new skills, such as pumping from fire trucks and portable firefighting pumps, the use of hand tools, radio communications, and emergency procedures in the event a truck is overcome by fire. “It’s been a lifelong dream to be a firefighter and help the community,” said recruit Matt. Already eager to jump on a truck and assist with incidents in the local area, Matt is looking forward to helping out other crews in the area. Having joined around the same time, the recruits completed their online applications via the NSW Rural Fire Service website, sat an interview with the membership team, and are now going through the Bush Firefighter course together. “I have a lot of friends and family already in the RFS around the state and was keen to have a go myself. I am looking forward to gaining the experience of being a firefighter, as well as making new friends in the brigade and local community,” explained recruit Mikayla. Once qualified, this will boost the number of firefighters at Regentville to around 40 operation crew members. “The brigade is also thrilled to have so many female members on the intake as well, as Regentville Brigade have such an amazingly large female membership already compared to other areas,” said Jordan Jobson of Regentville Rural Fire Brigade. “The brigade agrees, these members will play a pivotal role in what is shaping up to be a potentially dangerous fire season with the recent announcements of a potential El Nino weather cycle due to lash our great country again,” Jobson added. With the past flooding and current cool temperatures, residents must not become complacent. Grasslands are still quite dry and will only continue to dry out coming into Summer. If you have concerns with what Summer may hold or want more details about upcoming events, be sure to follow and share the NSW RFS – Regentville Brigade Facebook Page.

Making it Count Does anyone in your place dislike maths? It’s a pretty common feeling – and there is plenty of maths that can sap the will to live from you. But there are some benefits - to counting at least. You can add up how much you’ve saved for a holiday. You can count down to a special occasion. You can celebrate turning a year older. In fact, in the song book of the bible – the book of psalms - did you know the bible had a song book? In Psalm or song ninety, the songwriter asks God ‘Teach us to number our days that we may gain a heart of wisdom (Psalm 90:12). It’s not that God commands us to celebrate birthdays – though we’re very welcome to – it’s a prayer that God would help us to live each day wisely. Now each of us will come up with different answers to what is wise. Some will say, ‘play hard’, others ‘make sure you stop and smell the roses’ and I imagine you have your own answer. But when you read the rest of this song, it offers its own brand of wisdom. What can we learn from it? The song writer remembers the greatness and awesome power of God as our maker. They recognise our responsibility to live as he intended, but without some change we don’t, and then - then he prays this prayer – asking for forgiveness, asking for God to draw near to us, asking for each day to count. And the thing is, it’s a prayer the songwriter asks knowing God will answer it. He already had for God’s people then. He still is through the Lord Jesus today, and it is a prayer that each of us may pray. Why not look it up and pray Psalm 90 for yourself.

Could Eating Germinated Barley Help Ulcerative Colitis Patients? Butyrate is a small fatty acid and main food for cells lining the colon. When healthy, these cells provide a strong protective lining for the colon. Without butyrate, colon cells slowly die. This leaves areas of colon without protection and the tissue underneath directly exposed to faeces. Areas of colon without this protective lining constitute the “ulcers” in ulcerative colitis. Butyrate is normally made by bacteria that live in the colon. Indigestible fibre from the vegetables and grains we eat passes through the digestive tract into the colon, where colonic bacteria work in teams, using the fibre to make butyrate. Many UC sufferers have abnormally low levels of “butyrate” in stool. Researchers asked whether butyrate production by colonic bacteria could be increased by feeding patients appropriate fibrecontaining-foods. In a 4-week open-label study, scientists gave patients suffering active UC, 30g/day of a high fibre-food supplement called “Germinated Barley” (GB), a side product of beer production. Patients were kept on standard UC anti-inflammatory medications. The rationale behind the experiment was that: 1. Fibre from germinated barley, once in the colon, could be efficiently utilised by Bifido- and Lactobacilli bacteria to produce lactic acid and acetate (vinegar), 2. these compounds would then be taken up by other gut bacteria

10

to make the ‘bowel-health-promoting’ butyrate in a process called cross-feeding. Scientists found that after 4 weeks on germinated barley, patients had greater concentrations of butyrate in their stool, were clinically better, and endoscopic examination showed patients bowel walls looked significantly better. No patients had any negative side effects. The same scientists then did a controlled study in which 18 patients with mildly to moderately active UC, for 4 weeks, were given either: 1. baseline anti-inflammatory therapy (7 patients) or 2. 20–30 g GBF daily, together with the baseline treatment Patients receiving germinated barley showed: 1. significant clinical improvement 2. no side effects. And a representative patient on GB underwent: 1. microbial stool analysis - showing increased concentrations of: a. Bifidobacterium (acetate producing bacterium) and b. Eubacterium limosum (butyrate producing bacterium). 2. colonoscopy showing significant improvement in bowel appearance. Authors concluded oral therapy with germinated barley could be an effective adjunct therapy to reduce clinical signs and symptoms in UC patients. r **Refer to: www.districtgazette.com.au for expanded version

FOOD 4 THOUGHT Poppi Tino Shop 1 ,Caddens Corner

Solid Support for Men

82a O'Connell St Kingswood My Mum and I enjoyed a very delicious lunch at Poppi Tino in Caddens. Upon arrival, we were kindly greeted by Vinnie, who walked us over to a very comfortable booth. We ordered some sparkling water to begin our lunch. After reading through the menu and asking Vinnie for recommendations, Mum and I were keen to try the honey drizzled halloumi, topped with crushed pistachios. It was delightful. The blend of pistachios and honey glaze provided a perfect mix of sweet and savoury tastes to the halloumi. While I wasn't a fan of halloumi served like this in the past, I would certainly choose this appetiser again. For main dishes, I selected the Risotto Gamberi, made with prawns, cherry tomatoes, basil, roquette, white wine, roasted garlic, and Napoli sauce. The prawns were cooked to perfection, and the cherry tomatoes introduced a delightful sweetness. The risotto, enriched by the white wine and Napoli sauce, had a savoury taste that was complemented by the fresh basil and roquette. The roasted garlic added a subtle depth of flavour that tied everything together. Overall, it was a delicious meal that I would highly recommend. Mum chose the Fettuccine Chilli Crab and Prawn, a combination of blue swimmer crab, prawns, cherry tomato, chilli, and herbs. She enjoyed the dish and said it was spicy. I sampled some of her dish and was delighted by the flavourful crisp prawns. The added chilli further enhanced the already delicious meal. I will be ordering this dish for myself next time. Both dishes were served with chilli oil and parmesan. For our sweet finale, we decided to share the flavourful tiramisu. To end our impressive lunch, we couldn’t resist sampling the coffee. The flat whites we ordered were velvety, creamy, and free from bitterness. Poppi Tino earns a perfect ten out of ten from me. I wish to thank Vinnie and his Team for their exceptional hospitality.

A local group that was formed to equip and empower men in mindset, exercise, and nutrition has introduced its weekly sessions in Glenbrook. Solid Men is a not for profit that meets every week across multiple locations in Western Sydney. The new sessions in Glenbrook take place every Saturday at 5:45am, in the carport of the Glenbrook Visitor Information Centre. They started recently on October 21st. “We run free peer lead workouts weekly. Each session starts with a warmup and a word of encouragement from the leader, followed by boot camp style exercise for around 45 minutes. Think burpees, with bricks!” explained Lance Rogers, President of Solid Men. “After the workout, we gather for coffee and chats. This is where every man gets an opportunity to speak” he continued. Back in 2017, a group of women including the wives of the group's founders, started a 2 week fitness challenge. The men thought it might be good to do a similar challenge… except they kept going for over 6 years! The group was started by two friends, Nik Fe'ao and Suaia Matagi. Suaia was playing NRL for the Parramatta Eels at the time, bringing his fitness knowledge to the group. Lance believes that it’s important to have groups like this in the local community. “One of our values is ‘Check 6’ representing the need to watch out for each other, keep an eye on that vulnerable area of life and ensure we're checking in with each other and also know a man out there has my back. “We hear the stats that men too often don't speak up and reach out if they need help, but when you've pushed your body through a tough workout alongside another bloke it breaks down that barrier opening up that real, vulnerable conversation. When it comes to getting men connected with each other, I don't think there can ever be enough groups like this out there”. There are also plans to expand Solid Men in the future. “Our short term goal is to have 50 men, training across our 3 locations on the same Saturday by the end of the year. We do hope to add more locations across Sydney. Our long term dream is to have a Solid Men session held in Paris!” ended Lance. For more information, visit www.solidmen.com.au.

PAWS A WHILE Article Written + Submitted by: Kellie Tickner from Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital A: 49 Wentworth Rd, Orchard Hills P: 4736 2027

Celebrating Vet Nurse Day Recently the team at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital celebrated Vet Nurse Day. This annual event marks an important day for the veterinary industry and general public to acknowledge the vital role that vet nurses play within the veterinary team. The day was celebrated with a staff lunch, lots of gifts and flowers and of course everyone’s favourite, Subway cookies ! Our veterinary nurses entered the profession because they love animals – but nursing is a whole lot more than just cuddling cute puppies and kittens. Our experienced nurses are knowledgeable, technically skilled, compassionate and willing to assist whenever an animal, or client, requires help. Here’s a list of a few of the tasks that a veterinary nurse will regularly have to perform in a single day! Anaesthesia- Veterinary nurses will gently restrain animals in order to place intravenous catheters and, if required, collect blood samples for pre-anaesthetic health testing. They will calm and restrain a patient whilst they are being anaesthetised and then will capably monitor parameters, such as heart rate,

breathing rate, blood pressure, reflexes and body temperature to ensure that the patient experiences a safe anaesthetic. Patient Care - When animal patients stay in hospital, it is our experienced nurses who will perform ongoing checks on them throughout the day (between assessments by our vets), ensuring that they are provided with all the care and cuddles that is needed. Diagnostic Procedures - Our nurses are proficient in running in-clinic laboratory tests, including blood tests, urine tests and faecal analysis. This allows us to diagnose many common health conditions on site, so we can start prompt treatment for our patients. Assisting Our Vets - Last but not least, our nurses provide valuable support to our vets, providing hands-on assistance during important medical, surgical and imaging procedures. They also look after the ‘pet parents’ who may be worried for their fur-baby. Our nurses are of vital importance in achieving our goal of high-standard, compassionate animal care at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital. Let’s hear it for all the veterinary nurses!

Understanding Snake Activity this Summer As Summer approaches, Western Sydney residents can anticipate increased snake sightings in bushlands, grasslands, backyards, and houses. The snake season traditionally falls between September to March, but often varies due to temperatures. Sean Cade, from Australian Snake Catchers, has over 20 years of experience and assures residents that these encounters should be viewed as informative rather than alarming. "Snakes are mostly present for shelter or food and are generally just passing through a property," Sean explained. The Sydney Basin is home to a diverse range of snakes. "Most people in Western Sydney will come across the Eastern Brown Snake, Red Bellied Black Snake, Yellow Faced Whip Snake, and the Golden Crowned Snake," Sean said. Other snakes in the Sydney Basin include the Broad Headed Snake, Tiger Snake, Marsh Snake, and Death Adder. Sean offered some basic tips to minimise the chances of encountering snakes: • Avoid approaching snakes. • Refrain from trying to catch or harm them. • Ensure children and pets maintain a safe distance. • Clear any clutter or trash around your home. • Maintain clean lawns and store firewood at a distance from the house. Correcting common misconceptions, Sean explained that the presence of a Red Bellied Black Snake doesn't necessarily mean you won't encounter an Eastern Brown Snake. “This is a common statement which is incorrect. If the snakes are a similar length, they cannot eat each other. And Eastern Brown Snakes will also eat a Red Bellied Black Snake,” he said. Sean's dedication to his profession stems from a love for wildlife and a passion to share the wonders of native fauna with his children. "Although many are hesitant to deal with snakes, they play a valuable role in our ecosystem. They, like any animal, sometimes need assistance,” he said. "Snakes don't need to be feared. With a little understanding they are quite fascinating creatures. This time of year, they are breeding also and are quite active," Sean ended. If you need expert and secure removal of snakes or reptiles, reach out to Sean and his crew through their Facebook Page at www.facebook.com/australiansnakecatchers/ or call Sean at 0410761575 or Freya at 0452492836.

Draft EIS, Western Sydney International (Nancy-Bird Walton) Airport Penrith City Council welcomes the release of the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to understand the plans to mitigate the impacts on residents and the environment with the opening of Western Sydney International (WSI) Airport. This release of the draft EIS is a significant step towards realising the great opportunities the airport will bring for our City through increased jobs, infrastructure and investment. Penrith City Council encourages the community to find out more about the airport, the EIS and flight paths by attending one of the Australian Government’s community information events. There are a number being held locally in the coming weeks, more information is available here: https:// www.wsiflightpaths.gov.au/visit-us “Penrith City Council is learning about the EIS at the same time as the rest of the community. I want to reinforce that Council needs time to understand the comprehensive document, including the impacts on our residents and the environment, and the measures proposed for mitigating how it will affect residents and the environment.” said Penrith Mayor Todd Carney. “I encourage the community to seek out their own information on the EIS too and to attend one of the community information events, and make a submission on what they would like to see from the EIS.” he ended. r Article: Penrith City Council

THE LAST WORD FROM THE EDITOR Last month, Australians were asked to vote on the proposal to alter the Constitution to recognise the First Peoples of Australia by establishing an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice. According to the Australian Electoral Commission website a record 97.7% of eligible Australians were enrolled to vote. Official results can be found here: https:// aec.gov.au/referendums/ November has arrived, and that can only mean one thing......Christmas is closer than you'd care to believe. I know I start out with every good intention to plan and prepare well in advance, and somehow, one way or another...... I end up battling the crowds of last-minute shoppers on Christmas Eve! Consider this your notice, it will sneak up on us! Remembrance Day falls this month, and serves as a reminder that the freedoms we appreciate today were secured through the sacrifice of others. Take a moment on the 11th to honour the brave men and women who have served. Lest we forget. 'You are the artist of your own life. Don't hand the paintbrush to anyone else.' Time for a cuppa!
