From the editor

Ican still vividly recall the day I arrived in Australia from my native country of Ireland as a teenager some 30 years ago.

I often think of how brave my intrepid young parents were to move their entire life to a new country with three children in tow.

Like most migrants to this wonderful country, it didn’t take long for our family to fall in love with Australia, the warm and welcoming people and enviable outdoor lifestyle. Australia Day is a great opportunity to acknowledge the original custodians of this spectacular wide brown land and celebrate the melting pot of cultures today calling this island their home. I recently caught up with four local migrants who share their love for our nation and the opportunities it has afforded them. Turn to page 12 for the full story. Also in this issue, we have some fabulous style pages to inspire, plus our Business2Business feature is packed with important information and events for local owners. Until next time ... Aussie, Aussie, Aussie! Oi Oi Oi!

Australia should follow the global trend and put a tax on sugar-sweetened drinks or remain the “odd one out”, the Australian Medical Association says.

The doctors’ lobby group has renewed calls for the impost, releasing a new report showing that another 40 global jurisdictions have introduced a sugar tax since June 2021, taking the total to 85.

Australians drink enough sugary drinks to fill 960 Olympic swimming pools each year, and the government should help people break their sugar addiction and choose water instead, vice-president Danielle McMullen says.

The federal government could apply a tax of 40 cents for every 100 grams of sugar that manufacturers add to drinks, she says.

“That will mean just a 16-cent increase to the price of a regular can of fizzy drink, but for that, you’ll get a great health outcome,” Dr McMullen says.

The association estimates that a tax, over 25 years, will result in 16,000 fewer cases of Type 2 diabetes, 1100 fewer cases of stroke and 4400 fewer cases of heart disease.

It will also generate annual revenue of up to $814 million that could go toward preventative health measures, Dr McMullen says.

“It’s no wonder 85 governments across the globe are choosing to tax sugary drinks and other products this way, because the evidence is showing it’s effective at reducing consumption of these products and raising revenue. So why not in Australia?” she says.

“It’s just baffling why Australia is unwilling to take advantage of this win-win-situation, especially at a time when healthcare costs are under the spotlight.

“You’d think the government would take every opportunity to reduce the chronic disease burden on the health system and improve its bottom line at the same time.”

Sugary drinks erode and decay teeth, the association’s Why tax sugary drinks? report says.

The report highlights that four-in-10 Australian children have dental caries in their baby teeth.

Caries develop when mouth bacteria metabolise sugars, producing acid which eats away at teeth enamel and dentine. – AAP

POOR TESTING RESULTS CONTINUE, DESPITE MORE FUNDING FOR SCHOOLS

The number of students failing literacy and numeracy standards has remained steady, despite extra funding being pumped into schools, the Productivity Commission has found.

Its review of the National School Reform Agreement found almost 90,000 students each year failed to meet minimum NAPLAN reading or numeracy standards.

Indigenous students are three times more likely to fall behind at school, the report found, as are those with parents who have lower levels of education.

Commissioner Natalie Siegel-Brown recommended that Australian governments commit to firm literacy and numeracy targets in order to lift results.

“Targets do not guarantee success but they create a clear direction for reform and make governments accountable,” she said.

The commissioner also said a lack of data for students in regional and remote areas, as well as those with a disability and from disadvantaged backgrounds, meant states and territories weren’t being held accountable.

As well, teacher shortages meant those present often had to teach subjects they were not trained for.

Federal Education Minister Jason Clare said the report was “pretty damning” and while Australia had a good education system, it could be much better.

“I don’t want your chances in life to be dependent on where you live, but this report tells us if you are a child from a poor family, Indigenous, from the bush, you are less likely to meet the standards,” he told Seven’s Sunrise – AAP

You might think that all bananas are much the same – yellow, long, slightly curved and oh-so-sweet. But there are more than 500 different kinds of bananas. Fruit lovers in Australia tend to eat Cavendish and Lady Finger but there are also Baby (Niño), Orinoco, Ice Cream (Blue Java), Manzano and even red bananas, among other options available.

Quote of the week

In TheLord of the Rings stories, Mordor is where the villain Sauron resides. And while J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle Earth was merely a fantasy, Mordor is a real place. Although it’s not the base of evil power in our realm, it is a dark and mysterious place on Charon, one of Pluto’s moons, that sometimes appears to be the colour of a dried bloodstain, USA Today reports. And yes, the spot was named after the book, not the other way around.

Analogue TVs receive and display broadcast TV signals that are transmitted in a similar manner to AM/FM radio transmissions. The video transmitted in AM, while audio was in FM. Analogue TV transmissions were subject to interference, such as ghosting and snow, depending on the distance and geographical location of the TV receiving the signal. Analogue broadcasts were also severely limited in terms of video resolution and colour range. Full-power analogue TV broadcasts officially ended on June 12, 2009.

A PLACE TO CALL HOME

Australia Day serves as an important reminder to recognise and embrace our country’s diversity, and multicultural unity. Our region is home to people from varying cultures and backgrounds. Here, Ingrid Nelson shares some of their stories.

It was love at first sight for the Weldon family when they first arrived in Australia in 2014. As immigrants from Johannesburg in South Africa, the family of four originally landed in Canberra before relocating to the Sunshine Coast, which they now call home.

Although Glenn and his wife Mandy had not previously been to Australia, they had long been drawn to the laid-back outdoor lifestyle, sub-tropical climate and the promise of a safer environment for their children Jayden and Teagan to grow up in.

Although the immigration process isn’t an easy one, and they were forced to leave a strong support network of family behind, both Glenn and Mandy couldn’t be happier they made the move to Australia. Today, they are thriving both personally and professionally.

“We first started looking into it in January, 2013,” Glenn tells My Weekly Preview. “It’s quite a long process to get your visa so it took us a year before we got everything approved.

“There were a lot of things we needed

to submit and a lot of hoops we had to jump through, but we finally arrived a year later and we haven’t looked back.

“Our children were four and six at the time and we thought Australia had a lot to offer them in terms of education and work and lifestyle opportunities.”

Although moving to a new country was daunting for the Weldons, they were determined to make it one big adventure and fully embrace their exciting new life in Australia.

“We arrived with our MacBook and car seats for the kids, that was it. We had no car and no jobs. We were staying at a B&B, and we were thinking, ‘right, where do we go from here?’,” Glenn recalls.

“But we always knew we were going to embrace it. We were not going to have one foot in and one foot out,” adds Mandy. “We didn’t want to feel like we were running from something but rather we were going somewhere so we consciously made it an adventure.

“Our children are 13 and 15 now and they love the freedom of living here.”

The couple had friends living on the Sunshine Coast when they arrived in

Canberra and after a quick google search, they decided it was the place for them.

“We have always wanted to live close to the water and we just couldn’t believe how beautiful it was, with world class beaches, so that made the decision for us,” says Glenn.

“We became Australian citizens as soon as we could,” says Mandy.

“You have to be in the country four years. We came with permanent residency status and then the citizenship took a year.”

“Australia has given us a lot of opportunities and we have reaped the rewards so we felt it was important to embrace the Australian way of life and give back to the country that has given us so much,” adds Glenn.

“We are so grateful.”

Apart from country itself, both Glenn and Mandy agree it’s the people who have made their move to Australia the right choice for their family.

“We have met really amazing people and formed very close friendships.

“Even our neighbours are so good to us,” says Glenn.

Becoming Australian citizens in 2019 was the icing on the cake for the Weldon family who are now also the proud owners of EPM Print Group (formerly Express Print and Mail), here on the Sunshine Coast.

“The kids settled in nicely, they love their school and their sports and we love being part of the community.

“I think Australians have a great sense of humour and South Africans are very much the same. We don’t take ourselves too seriously.”

The Sunshine Coast is a melting pot of cultures, home to people from all over the world. We caught up with three locals to discover the story behind why they immigrated to Australia, what they love most about living on the Sunshine Coast and how they will spend Australia Day.

What country did you immigrate from? China.

What country did you immigrate from? Cyprus.

When and why did you move to Australia? We lost everything on an international deal with my parent’s business so our family of six moved to Australia in 1989 with just $4000 to our name. My family were hard workers and wanted to go somewhere with plenty of opportunities.

What do you love about Australia and its people? We are such a melting pot of cultures, it always intrigues me where everyone has come from. I think Aussies are very friendly and open-minded. I love their laid-back attitude.

Why did you choose to settle on the Sunshine Coast? Living on an island all my life, surrounded by water and beautiful weather in summer, the Sunshine Coast was the closest to that lifestyle. It’s also such a safe environment to raise children. What is your favourite spot on the Sunshine Coast? I love to go up to the hills of Maleny where you can see the whole Sunshine Coast. We have villages in Cyprus but nothing like the hinterland towns we have here. I also love Cotton Tree.

How will you celebrate Australia Day? To me, Australia Day is about getting together and celebrating where we live. I am proud to be Australian. Of course there is always respect for the original people of the land.

When and why did you move to Australia? In 2005, I started at the university back in China. I always had a dream of studying and living overseas, and to be able to speak English fluently. In 2006 I learnt about Australia at a workshop and thought it would be a beautiful country to study and live. After three years of planning, I first landed in Brisbane in August 2009.

What do you love about Australia and its people? I still remember the first morning stroll after I landed in Australia, a very warm “Good morning” from a complete stranger. It made me feel very welcome in this country, and I still feel that way. I love the Aussie laid-back lifestyle, the Aboriginal culture, the support from the medical and other welfare systems. The people that I have encountered in Australia are mostly very welcoming and embrace cultural diversity.

Why did you choose to settle on the Sunshine Coast? We love living in the region because of the laid-back lifestyle, beautiful beaches and hinterland, a short drive away from Brisbane. Importantly, it is a great place to bring up kids.

What is your favourite spot on the Sunshine Coast? It would have to be where I live on the southern side of the Sunshine Coast. Home is always my favourite spot.

How will you celebrate Australia Day? We will join in the great Aussie culture and have a good old Aussie barbecue with family and friends. It’s a great day to celebrate this wonderful country we are lucky to live in.

What country did you immigrate from? Belgium.

When and why did you move to Australia? After my compulsory army service in Belgium, I felt the need to go on an adventure, which took me to Australia in 1981 for the first time. I came back many times after that before settling here.

What do you love about Australia and its people? I fell in love with not only the country but it’s people. I love their hospitality, their openness, their larrikinism. It’s a wonderful country full of adventures and beautiful nature, how could you not fall in love with it? Plus, it also offers all the things I love to do –four-wheel driving, surfing, fishing, scuba diving.

Why did you choose to settle on the Sunshine Coast? My in-laws settled here from Belgium the year before we arrived and opened the Big Kart Track in Landsborough. My wife and I took over the business and I am still running the track 40 years later, and still having fun.

What is your favourite spot on the Sunshine Coast? We are spoilt for choice with some of the best beaches in the world and the beautiful hinterland, but I love Double Island. Driving along the beach is just spectacular.

How will you celebrate Australia Day? We love Australia Day, but for me Australia Day is a usually a day of work because we are so busy. It’s a great day to celebrate the things Australia has achieved. I say this in mind with being a migrant myself. We are all migrants here except our Aboriginal friends. I am always thinking of the past as well and recognise the oldest living culture on this Earth.

Even though they may look like rodents, sugar gliders are marsupials belonging to the same family as kangaroos and koalas. They can live for up to 15 years and share a similar level of intellect to dogs. They can even pick up skills like learning their name!

COMMUNITY-MINDED

Sunshine Coast Australia Day Awards recipients have been named across seven categories, but one common thread has appeared.

Acommunity champion whose efforts have helped feed thousands of people in need has been named the Sunshine Coast Citizen of the Year.

Michele Lipner has been honoured

for her dedication to helping others, reducing food waste and advocating for vital behaviour change.

The Coolum local is the founder and coordinator of the local chapter of OzHarvest, Australia’s leading food

rescue organisation. Every month, Ms Lipner and her team of volunteers collect more than 15,000 kilograms of quality surplus food from 40 food donors and re-distribute it to 45 agencies to feed people in need.

The local organisation raises more than awareness, delivering a range of programs such as Cooking for a Cause and Food Education and Sustainability Training to help empower the Coast community to make better choices for sustainability.

Sunshine Coast Acting Mayor Rick Baberowski says people such as Ms Lipner form the backbone of the local community.

“This year, we received 63 Sunshine Coast Australia Day nominations across seven categories with a common thread weaving through each one: every nominee was praised for their selflessness and their dedication to helping others,” Cr Baberowksi says.

“Together, the nominations form a glorious account of the actions of everyday people who make a difference.

“It’s a humbling account and every nominee should feel very proud.

“The Sunshine Coast Australia Day Awards provide an essential platform to recognise the efforts of the special individuals, charities and organisations

that support our region and to say ‘thank you’.

“On behalf of Sunshine Coast – to all those nominated, both this year and in previous years – a sincere thank you.”

The My Weekly Preview-supported Sport and Recreation category saw Motiv8sports Sunshine Coast take out the award.

Motiv8sports Sunshine Coast has helped thousands of young children actively engage in club sport and its ethos is based on participation, inclusion, resilience, strong anti-bullying messaging and giving the kids the confidence to have a go.

LEASE OPPORTUNITIES

Wishlist Centre also offers two activity rooms, the Wellness Room and consult room for hire, plus a commercial space is still available on the ground level.

“Securing a commercial tenant for the last remaining lot on the ground floor is the last piece of the puzzle for Wishlist Centre,” Mr Hogan says.

“Lot 2 is 390sq m and provides an incredible opportunity for the right health-related, commercial tenant to be located in the heart of the Sunshine Coast’s Oceanside Health Hub.

“Besides the unparalleled proximity to our major public hospital and competitive lease terms, this lot can be split into two, which provides further flexibility for the right tenant or tenants.”

For more information about leasing opportunities within Wishlist Centre, phone Craig Jackson on 0428 587 811.

COMMUNITY SOLUTIONS TO HEALTH NEEDS

Avaluable new service that will support people in the region experiencing cancer is being offered for free, thanks to a community partnership.

The drop-in clinic will be located at Wishlist Centre, which opened opposite the Sunshine Coast University Hospital (SCUH) in November to provide affordable

accommodation for patients and families accessing hospital treatment.

Wishlist Acting CEO Brendan Hogan says the nursing clinic, in partnership with Bloomhill Cancer Care, will add to the growing list of services at the centre.

He says that in the three months since opening, Wishlist Centre’s rooms have been booked out and at capacity on

several occasions.

“Our weekly pet therapy service has begun, and from January 25 a Bloomhill Cancer Care nurse will be on site each Wednesday afternoon to support people accessing cancer treatment at SCUH,” Mr Hogan says.

Bloomhill Cancer Care CEO Christopher John says the clinic can be accessed by anyone with a cancer diagnosis, a carer or bereaved, as well as those staying at Wishlist Centre.

“We are delighted to be joining with

Wishlist,” Mr John says.

“The Bloomhill nursing clinic is a completely free service with no appointments required.

“It will give people a safe and welcoming space to speak with a Bloomhill nurse for any questions they may have and introduce them to Bloomhill services.

“It is our vision that other complementary cancer care services will be available in the future at subsidised rates.”

The Bloomhill Cancer Care drop-in clinic will operate every Wednesday from 1-4pm at Wishlist Centre, 1 Bright Place, Birtinya. For more information, phone 1300 009 474 or visit wishlist.org.au.

Based on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, BioXact has been developed by leading Australian cardiologists and specialist physicians with your heart health in mind.

Summer fun in Nambour Nambour is an ideal place to spend this summer with your kids. There’s not only the new splash park that opened last year, but also the new adventure playground at Quota Memorial Park for families to spend hours of fun.

The Quota Park adventure playground includes a huge seven-metre high Spire Gear Tower, contoured rock wall, climbing rope net, banister slide, internal climbers with various levels of challenge, a rope elevator and a huge spiral slide.

The park is great for families with children of varying ages and has been redesigned so the layout is accessible for all.

The Nambour Aquatic Centre Splash Park offers more than 580sq m of water play, as well as two huge waterslides where thrill seekers of all ages can take the plunge.

Why not start your day at the new playground at Quota Memorial Park and then cool off at the Splash Park.

Business sustainability workshop

The council will be running a business sustainability workshop in Nambour, which I invite all businesses to attend in February.

The workshop will be delivered with Cleantech Industries Sunshine Coast and will help businesses understand how they can cut costs and reduce their environmental footprint.

Participants will analyse their energy, water and waste use to understand where efficiencies can be made and learn how to create a Sustainability Action Plan to implement in their business.

This is open to all businesses but will be of particular use to small businesses that have limited resources to investigate and implement.

The Nambour workshop will take place on Thursday, February 16, at The Old Ambulance Station from 4-6.30pm.

The workshop costs $25 per person.

LOSS OF A MIRACLE WORKER

Earlier this month, we lost a bright spark. Dubbed “the man who smelt a miracle”, Alan Mackay-Sim was a prodigy who lived right here on the Sunshine Coast.

He appeared the quintessential professor – with his trademark moustache, a beaming smile and that ‘look’ that made you acutely aware the cogs were always turning.

Sadly, this trailblazing neuroscientist and former Australian of the Year passed away on January 4 at age 71, leaving his dear wife, adult children and many hearts aching across the Coast and beyond. Alan was best known as the scientist who led the world’s first human trial using transplanted nasal cells into the spinal cords of people with paraplegia.

His extraordinary mind enabled a severely injured Polish man, Darek

Fidyka, to walk again after a horrific car accident.

Many might not know that Alan and his wife Lisa became part of the Wishlist family in 2017 when we opened the Sunshine Coast University Hospital (SCUH). We were so thrilled when he said ‘yes’ to being our guest speaker at the grand opening and accepting to be interviewed by journalist Ray Martin.

Alan became part of the Wishlist Research Committee to provide expert guidance and mentorship to researchers working within our local public hospitals, further bolstering the research culture in our health service. He was an inspiration and a reminder that we have miracle workers in our midst.

Just last week, I was involved in a patient reunion between a local man, Arumugam Srinivasan, and the man who saved his life.

Mr Srinivasan was rushed to SCUH after suffering a heart attack and underwent surgery to insert a stent in his artery – a procedure where timing and precision is a matter of life and death. Cardiologist Dr Michael Fryer saved Mr Srinivasan’s life that day and this humble and highly-talented doctor (and his team) have saved countless people facing similar situations in our backyard. Vale Alan Mackay-Sim.

SUPPORT DOGGONE OVERWHELMS POLICE

The end of last year saw the Sunshine Coast Police overwhelmed with support from the community after the tragic deaths of Constables Rachel McCrow and Mathew Arnold.

The community showed their kindness in many ways.

That included comments on the local Facebook pages, words of thanks to the police walking in the community and also dropping into stations.

Often members of the public had flowers or little food packages.

Two children, Lucy and Andrew, from Bokarina, sent a lovely card to Maroochydore Police Station, thanking police for looking after the community.

The card offered condolences on loss of their police colleagues and also asked if they had a police dog to help them “catch the bad guys”.

Last week, Lucy and Andrew were invited to meet retired drug detection dog Anzac and his handler Sergeant Hicks, along with Sunshine Coast District Officer, Superintendent Craig Hawkins, and the acting officer-in-charge of the Sunshine Coast Dog Squad, Martin Wilson.

Andrew and Lucy had a great time.

So did Anzac.

Superintendent Hawkins thanked the children and their parents for their kind words, and the local community for their continued support on behalf of all the officers on the Sunshine Coast.

“For the community to acknowledge the work that we do is tremendous and we want to say thank you,” Superintendent Hawkins says.

HEAR TALES OF THE BUSH FROM AN OUTBACK LEGEND

Some of the Sunshine Coast’s most talented artists and creative industries are poised to deliver bigger and better outcomes, thanks to some significant financial backing.

Local artists and arts organisations are set to share a $130,000 funding boost, through Sunshine Coast Council with the support of the Queensland Government.

The Creative Industries Investment Program is aimed at increasing participation in creative arts, supporting the endeavours of First Nations people and growing audiences.

Creative arts and events coordinator Janine Symons says the council has

received 13 applications for the new annual program.

“One applicant which will be receiving maximum funding is the Sunshine Coast Creative Alliance, recognising their significant contribution to supporting regional arts sector development,” Ms Symons says.

Other organisations receiving funding include IN artist-run initiative, Blak Creatives, Outspoken Maleny, Red Chair, The Old Ambulance Station and Sunshine Coast Film Festivals.

The

Return of creative program to help arts soar

of The Refinery 5.0

The Refinery is an annual creative business incubator program designed to support independent artists and creative industry practitioners establish and grow viable and sustainable businesses.

The program was launched in 2019 through a partnership between Sunshine Coast Council, SunCentral and the MET, and the Sunshine Coast Creative Alliance (SCCA).

Having already supported 58 creative businesses across four successful years, The Refinery 5.0 will be delivered by SCCA, marking an important milestone in the growth of the arts sector on the Coast.

SCCA president Liz Burcham says taking responsibility for The Refinery will see SCCA continue to play a pivotal role in enabling and strengthening the Sunshine Coast’s creative sector.

“Importantly, this opportunity is also a platform to grow the SCCA business model

and position it to play a more dynamic leadership role in the region’s creative future.”

Megan Rowland, team leader of Creative Development for Council, and Bronwyn Adams, project manager, City Activation, Maroochydore City Centre for SunCentral, were both instrumental in founding The Refinery and are enthusiastic about its future under SCCA’s leadership.

Megan says Council is immensely proud of what has been achieved through The Refinery over the last four years.

“As the peak industry body of our region, SCCA is best placed to continue building on the growth. Council will be the Refinery 5.0’s major investment partner through the new Arts & Heritage Levy and will work with SCCA and The Refinery participants to continue to strengthen the creative ecology of our region and success of the program,” she says.

SCCA will run The Refinery in its proven format of a 10-week intensive program.

This year’s learning curriculum has a renewed focus on personal growth and leadership, designed to build participants’ capacity to grow their practice, gain visibility, understand their value and the context in which they operate.

It will also identify new markets and help foster the region’s next creative leaders.

The Refinery 5.0 will support 20 artists, creative practitioners and entrepreneurs.

Five identified First Nations positions will also participate in a dedicated First Nations led series, curated and facilitated by leading Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander mentors and creatives.

Expressions of interest are sought from creative practitioners nationwide. Shortlisted applicants will be invited to a one-day bootcamp on March 25 as part of the selection process. Applications close March 1.

Ella Woodborne helped take the Sunshine Coast to UNESCO Biosphere status, and now the 19-year-old university student will represent the region’s Biosphere globally as an inaugural member of UNESCO’s Our Humanature Pathways panel, a think-tank informing international bodies, governments and the business world.

The panel will help define humanity’s role in establishing and maintaining a healthy relationship with nature.

Hi everyone,

The Sunshine Coast is home to some truly remarkable people who embody community spirit and inspire us all.

I recently had the pleasure of meeting some of the individuals and groups who have made a difference to our Sunshine Coast in the past year.

People like Shane Truscott, who has tirelessly volunteered for many sporting groups including Suncoast Clippers Basketball Club, was recognised.

Nikita Newley Fitzpatrick, a First Nations artist, provides a safe learning opportunity for all ages to explore connection to Country.

Danny Hood, a fifth-generation farmer, is pushing for a more sustainable future and change of practice in agriculture.

A ‘natural and unique’ part of the Sunshine Coast has gained international recognition that could further boost its appeal, along with business and tourism.

And then there’s the Maroochy Men’s Shed, comprising many retirees who pick up the tools and break down barriers surrounding mental health.

As we return to back-to-school mode, now is a great time to consider how we put our children’s lunchboxes together to reduce waste and plastics for the benefit of future generations.

As parents, grandparents and caregivers, the changes we make today also help family members form natural habits to one day live plastic-free lives.

From investing in the right non-toxic lunchbox, prioritising produce and plastic-free products and buying in bulk, to using beeswax and cutlery wraps and reusable produce bags, visit oursc.com.au for all the details.

After an extensive judging process, the Kings Beach Park and Community Precinct has been awarded the Green Flag Award –only the fourth Queensland park to receive this prestigious accolade.

The Green Flag Award® scheme recognises and rewards well-managed parks and green spaces, setting the benchmark standard for the management of recreational outdoor spaces around the world.

To learn more about the park, visit

Collectively, their efforts help build community vitality and resilience and, with many others, are an integral part of the social fabric of our region.

I’d like to congratulate every nominee in the Sunshine Coast Australia Day Awards 2023. Visit Council’s website to see the recipients and read about their outstanding stories that give us all hope for this year.

Satisfying our wanderlust Documented changes in humans

Jane Stephens is excited that new Sunshine Coast-based airline Bonza will help us all extend our ‘wings’ to more regional centres.

Just watch us fly. Sunshine Coastbased airline Bonza has officially been given its wings to 17 destinations across the country, including 13 from our own home base. It adds competition to the players already servicing the Sunny Coast Airport, and we all know competition is a very good thing indeed for the consumer.

The world was limited for too long by the pandemic and the curious and adventurous are busting out.

While we are no doubt the most privileged people on the planet to reside on the Coast, we are also human. And it is human to want to experience new places. Poets and songwriters call it ‘wanderlust’. In spending time and money, a person becomes richer. For my money, it is the ultimate, no-lose investment.

Travel satisfies our curiosity and galvanises our self-competency. Studies have shown that it improves personal empowerment, trust, personal identity and emotional resilience. It helps secure social bonding because travelling can lead to warm embraces and the company of loved ones. Travel brings families and friends together in ways Facetime and

WhatsApp cannot. Even though humans have evolved, we have the primal, innate desire to wander the land and water. It is embedded deeply in our psyche.

Humans are curious by nature, and travel always offers up new experiences to grow from. And so often the times that things were unpredicted or uncomfortable make the best stories.

International travel offers its own teachings. Going somewhere new, with perhaps a foreign language or a completely unfamiliar culture, demands a leap of faith and of imagination. When we board a plane for some faraway land, we hope, wish for and excitedly anticipate something magic, something ineffable.

Bonza’s approval to get airborne will no doubt be a boon for Sunshine Coast tourism, and it will be up to us to make our home as wonderful an experience for our visitors as possible.

Bonza CEO Tim Jordan has said he ultimately wants to see the skies all over Australia smattered with purple. We who love to travel are just happy to have more opportunities to get back in the skies.

As J.R.R. Tolkien wrote: “Not all those who wander are lost.”

An innovative approach to hip and knee replacement

Ashley Robinson laments how the pandemic has sent people’s behaviour down the toilet and negated the need for common courtesies.

Iwrote a column about shortages, labour, attitude, food and general supply chain problems post-COVID.

But unfortunately, a couple of people interpreted it as me having a crack at COVID rules and disregarding people’s safety ... which is nothing like what I was trying to say.

Now that they have brought it up, I will make a few comments on restrictions.

It was a pandemic that we have never encountered before and the people making the rules most times did the best they could. But I have some feedback if we have to do this again. I pray we don’t.

If you are going to make people exempt from wearing a mask, legislate that they have to be issued with an official card saying they are exempt (without having to say why).It would make life a lot easier for hospitality staff and it would certainly keep some from having to defend themselves at ‘human rights hearings’. Then those folk who felt violated by being asked if they had any documentation at entry to a venue could certainly come up with it at the hearing.

Just thought I would clear that up

before I make another example of changed human behaviour post-COVID.

Take that story the other week at a 5-star Brisbane hotel where guests were getting up at 5am over the holiday period and putting personal belongings on pool lounges so they didn’t miss out later on in the day when they wanted to sunbake by the pool. If you don’t believe me, go to any local park near the beach on the weekend and see poor old dad sitting at a park pavilion at 5.30am, getting dibs so they can have a birthday party for little Johnny or Milly there many hours later.

Have you noticed these days it is far more common when you let a car into a line of traffic that they don’t give you a thank-you wave for being courteous? They seem to believe, post-COVID, it’s their rite of passage. Every human for themselves.

I am sure I know what started this and should have mentioned it last week, saving all the confusion. Toilet paper.

It seems we all changed during COVID when we binged on dunny rolls. While we are hopefully recovering from the pandemic, we may never recover from the selfishness of hoarding toilet tissue.

The wooden spoon award goes to ...

Sami Muirhead explains her devotion to the humble kitchen utensil and one artisanal implement, in particular, that is her favourite.

This week’s column is brought to you by a love of wooden spoons.

Every time I see a wooden spoon, I want to stir a big saucepan of spaghetti bolognaise or fold lashings of cream to smother over a strawberry sponge cake.

A simple wooden spoon has quite the dizzying effect on me and makes me feel very nostalgic, bringing back memories of childhood. The wooden spoon is my favourite of all the kitchen utensils.

A spatula is practical, but boring.

A potato masher is reliable, but a pain to clean. A bottle opener is fun (and a necessity), but has no sexy curves. Tongs are clever, but so sterile. A whizy-jiggerthingo is great for smoothies, but resembles making things in a rush.

Give me a cracked and weathered spoon and it speaks to my soul. For my Christmas gift, I begged my husband to buy me a very expensive wooden spoon from the Witta Markets. It is hand carved with an oil coating. It is the perfect cherry timber colour. It was love at first sight and I knew I needed that spoon in my kitchen.

The hitch? It was $60. Patient hubby said he could get me a handful of spoons for 10 bucks from those kitchen shops

that are always having closing down sales.

I stamped my foot like a two-year-old and insisted on this Witta spoon.

I vowed I would make family feasts with the spoon and it would transform me into Nigella Lawson.

I opened my gift on Christmas Day and screamed with delight. The spoon is hanging on a little rail in the kitchen. The problem is, it is so pretty and cost so much that I do not want to use it and I certainly do not want my children using it. I caught my eight-year-old son using it as a sword and snatched it out of his hand faster than lightning. My other son was using the handle to get a marble out of the fish tank. I nearly hyperventilated.

I am yet to cook a single thing with the damn spoon. My cheeky family members tease me no end over the spoon that lords over the kitchen. They say it represents me winning the wooden spoon award for being a lousy cook and a big liar as I have not used it once to bake delicious treats.

If they are not careful, I will use that spoon how our parents did when we were kids and give them a tap over their butts.

No, I wouldn’t do that. Not out of fear of being politically incorrect, but because it may damage my precious spoon.

FIVE GLOBAL INVESTMENT

After challenging global equity and bond markets in 2022, the outlook for 2023 remains difficult and could be a testing one for investors. We present five global themes for 2023:

1. A US recession – The US Federal Reserve is in the midst of its most aggressive tightening cycle since 1981, having increased rates by 425 basis points in nine months. Four lead indicators suggest to us that this tightening cycle is driving a recession:

• a sharply inverted yield curve, with longer-dated interest rates significantly lower than shorter-term interest rates

• The Conference Board leading indicator is falling at a 9.6 per cent annual rate, consistent with prior recessions

• rapid tightening of lending standards by US banks

• rapid declines in new orders in both manufacturing and services sectors. Fundamentally, it appears difficult for the Fed to reduce US core consumer inflation from 4.7 per cent to its 2 per cent target without a downturn. US core private wages growth at 5.6 per cent year on year is almost twice the 2.9 per cent level that would be consistent with 2 per cent inflation. Sharply higher unemployment

is required to dampen wages growth which, in turn, needs a recession.

2. The Fed to continue tightening, with no early pivot – Struggling for traction, the Fed should lift cash rates above 5 per cent, while the still-hot labour market should deter the Fed from an early pivot. Contributing to the Fed’s lack of traction is the fact that 90 per cent of mortgages in the US are fixed for 30 years for about 3 per cent. So the central bank increasing rates does little to change homeowners’ behaviour.

3. High risk of a non-US financial event

– Fed tightening cycles often lead to financial crises. Given its most aggressive rate cycle in 41 years and solid US private balance sheets, a non-US financial event, possibly in peripheral Europe, seems more likely.

4. Easing geopolitical tensions as China re-engages with the West and Russia remains on the defensive – Even so, these events are driving increased defence spending, accelerated clean energy investment and deglobalisation.

5. China’s reopening to underwhelm

– Weak growth, modest stimulus and severe structural challenges should limit reopening recovery unless policy becomes aggressively stimulative.

Investment implications: We remain cautious and stay very underweight in the US where equities are not factoring in a recession and bonds should be disappointed by a hawkish Fed. Plus, equities do not expect a significant financial event. While we expect an underwhelming China reopening, expectations are modest in emerging markets, leading us to remain overweight.

WELCOME VISITORS

From cruise ship passengers to foodies and football teams, the Sunshine Coast is kicking goals in summer tourism. WORDS: Cr Jason O’Pray.

It’s been non-stop for our tourism industry this summer season and it’s been great to see areas from the coast to the hinterland bustling.

The influx of holidaymakers and day trippers benefits the whole region and this will continue now that cruise ships are once again visiting our shores. Please

make passengers feel welcome. A simple ‘g’day’ and a friendly smile will make the world of difference.

Sunshine Coast business owners and operators receive a major economic boost from these visiting cruise ships. The anticipated arrival of nine cruise ships anchoring off Mooloolaba this season will

inject an estimated $2 million into our local economy.

Bonza, Australia’s only independent low-cost carrier, has shared exciting news that it is in final preparations for take-off.

The first flight from Sunshine Coast Airport for the Whitsunday Coast (Proserpine) is scheduled for January 31 – fantastic news for our community.

We are continuing our focus on hosting events to attract visitors and keep those economic benefits flowing, and attracting sporting teams in the preseason and throughout the season is paying dividends. Two AFL and two NRL teams are coming to town for pre-season training. Port Adelaide Football Club was the first AFL team to arrive in early December and you might spot the Carlton Football Club at the moment.

The pre-season NRL matches being held at Sunshine Coast Stadium on February 12 and 18 are such a great opportunity for the Broncos, Titans and Cowboys fans to head to the Sunshine Coast for a week or long weekend of football-inspired fun. The Brisbane Broncos will host an open training session at Sunshine Coast Stadium, with details to be announced. Sunshine Coast Stadium will welcome the newest team in town, the Dolphins, to the stadium for a Round 17 clash against the Parramatta Eels on

Saturday, June 24. And the returning South Sydney Rabbitohs on July 21 are always a crowd pleaser with win after win when playing at their home-away-fromhome here on the Sunshine Coast.

Food tourism is also our focus this year, and The Curated Plate will soon be calling for industry partners to join the program. If you are a Sunshine Coastbased restaurant, venue, winery, cellar door, brewery, food producer, winemaker or tourism operator and can offer a warm and inviting food event that features local produce or products, follow the link to The Curated Plate Industry Partners page. You’ll get bonus points for cross-collaborations with tourism operators, venues, chefs and local producers.

This is really a great segue to talk about buying local (aka Australian made).

Making the conscious decision to eat local produce and buy locally made products is really one of the greatest ways to keep our 33,000 small businesses thriving. The start of the year is an ideal time to set new habits and goals. I believe that Australia, and the Sunshine Coast in particular, is one of the great places to live, learn, work and play. To prosper through our connected and collective communities, we need to think ‘local’ first and, secondly, think ‘circular economy’.

KEEP YOUR BUSINESS IN GOOD WORKING ORDER

Bookkeeping and human resources are two critical functions for any business, large or small.

Together, they form the backbone of a company’s financial and personnel operations, helping to ensure that financial records are accurate and up-to-date, and that employees are managed effectively.

Accurate bookkeeping is essential for a business to understand its financial position and make informed decisions about how to allocate resources. It also helps ensure compliance with tax laws and regulations, and can prevent costly mistakes or fraud.

Human resources, on the other hand, is responsible for managing a company’s workforce. This includes recruiting, hiring and training new employees, as well as managing employee benefits, payroll and other administrative tasks.

Bookkeeping and human resources together are essential for the smooth running of a business. Accurate bookkeeping is critical for making informed decisions about how to allocate resources and ultimately grow the business. Human resources is the most expensive and time-consuming area of a

business, so it has to be a focus when looking at forecasts and costings.

Managing a workforce optimally is critical for maintaining a positive and productive work environment and successful business.

With the introduction of STP2 (Single Touch Payroll Phase 2), bookkeeping and human resources become even more intertwined as payroll data is sent to the ATO after every pay run and shows the breakdown of pay items such as base hourly rate or salary, allowances, superannuation, commissions, bonuses and leave. It allows Services Australia and Fair Work Australia to gain access to and be given vital information for their work, such as child support and Fair Work claims.

Review your pay rates, allowances and loadings to ensure you are in line with Fair Work Australia. It is the employer’s responsibility to double check this and ensure compliance with legislation so that there are no repercussions from the ATO or Fair Work Australia, saving potential back-payments and costly fines.

Companies that invest human resources and accurate book keeping are more likely to be successful in the long run and will guarantee compliance.

TIME TO DEVELOP PROJECT IDEAS TO SECURE GRANT FUNDING

Sunshine Coast Council’s next major grants round has opened, so now is a good time to start thinking of a project that you might like funding for.

Major grants support not-for-profit organisations to deliver one-off projects, events and activities with broad community benefit.

Economic development is one of six grant categories where not-for-profit organisations can request up to $15,000 for one-off projects, events and activities that address one or more of the these priorities:

• foster strong economic leadership and collaboration by government, business

and industry

• encourage best practice in securing investment in the region’s infrastructure priorities

• facilitate development of the region’s high-value industries, including promotion of innovation, research and digital participation

• business projects focused specifically on developing local-to-global connections and investment in talent and skills in the region’s high-value industries.

The round will close on March 13. For more information, go to sunshinecoast. qld.gov.au.

A RECIPE FOR MODERN EVENTS THAT MATTER

When it comes to hosting modern corporate and community events, what do you hope people gain from the experience?

Over the past few years, we have seen the event world turn on its head. If you’re planning events for your organisation in 2023, here are my top tips for genuine engagement and event success:

1. Less. Guests use these events to connect with their team, clients and

friends. Where you can have ‘less’ on the run sheet – do so. Give people time to chat and be present in the moment.

2. Purpose. Like everything in life, people like purpose. So why are we here?

3. Get clear on the details. To allow for impressive simplistic designs, I often see event invites that really scrimp on the details. Ensure the details your guests need to know are included.

4. Sense of belonging. Further on from purpose, people also enjoy a sense of belonging: their individual purpose to be in the room. Why am I invited?

5. First impressions. For guest arrivals at your event, try having a welcoming committee stationed at the entry. Feeling welcomed as soon as you arrive sets the tone for a warm and meaningful experience.

6. Photos, photos, photos. Part of our modern DNA is a strong need to document moments with photos. To help your guest capture the best shot, hire a photographer.

7. Plan ahead . Being organised not only creates a more seamless experience, but in the post-COVID world, it’s essential. Venues are booking out a year in advance, so get in quick and secure your venue.

What contract changes mean to buyers and sellers

Amendments to the conditions of standard residential contracts in Queensland mean that all sellers and buyers have the choice to extend the settlement date for up to five business days.

To trigger this right, the notice must be given in the approved form, in writing and issued within the required time frames.

This could mean that on the day of settlement, even up until 4pm, settlement is extended without recourse and reason.

It is important to consider how this clause may disrupt plans with removalists and even tradespeople booked after settlement. Even worse, the activation of this clause may mean that linked settlements are cancelled.

This may leave people without a home, without compensation and in possible breach of any linked contract.

As a result, it is vital for all parties to stay in touch with their solicitors on the day of settlement to ensure their interests under the contract are protected. On the other hand, staying in touch with your solicitor will ensure that the correct notice is given to activate the clause in any urgent need to extend settlement.

Work flexibility has advantages for all

We have certainly seen the workplace change over the past few years and we have all had to adapt to this changing environment.

So, what does a flexible workplace mean and can you offer it?

Recently, SEEK found that 63 per cent of candidates think work/life balance is extremely important. And more than half (56 per cent) of candidates want hirers to offer remote or flexible working. A total of 28 per cent of candidates also say they are looking to change jobs in the next six months.

Flexible work does not just mean working from home. It can encompass many things – from start and finish times to number of days working. Workplace flexibility offers benefits to business:

• a boost in employee engagement and motivation, because they’re trusted to deliver outcomes, not just clock hours at work

• empowerment for employees who can choose how, when and where they work

• retention of your team who would otherwise be looking for more flexible options

• a stronger team culture through higher morale and more frequent communication.

Have these discussions with your team in person to see what the best fit is for them and the organisation.

Listening gives good insight to help others

Knowledge is power and the more you listen, the more knowledge you’ll gain.

In our office, we endeavour to listen to our clients’ stories and to each other to gain more knowledge on how we can all help each other, both in business and personally. Failing to listen sometimes won’t deliver the right outcomes.

Some things to consider:

• Make eye contact – this demonstrates you are engaged and intently listening to the person or people in the meeting.

• Suspend judgment/evaluation – we are making judgments and evaluations all day to help us make decisions . But when it comes to individuals, we need to put that aside and be open to what the speaker is saying. Allow their message to sink in.

• Paraphrase – summarise the speaker’s content to demonstrate and provide recognition of understanding.

• Reflection of feeling – demonstrate you understand the emotion they are feeling.

• Summarise – bring together elements from the conversation into a cohesive form: that is, by saying “What I heard you say was …”

• Ask questions – this shows you understand what they are saying enough that you want to learn more.

Taking your child or children overseas on a much anticipated holiday post-separation or divorce should be exciting. But what happens if the other parent doesn’t consent?

To obtain an Australian passport, each person who has parental responsibility for the child is required to provide written consent before a child’s passport can be renewed or issued. If there is no consent for the child to travel or be issued with an Australian passport, you will need to apply to the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia for approval.

Where there is a current order that permits the child to be issued with a passport and/or travel internationally, and the other parent is in breach of their obligation, you can seek assistance from the court to enforce the obligation or have the requirement for the signature to be dispensed.

Seeking an order from the court is a protracted, expensive exercise and a last resort if matters cannot be resolved through dispute-resolution processes.

If you have separated and intend on travelling internationally with your children, providing the other parent as much notice of your travel is key as it will allow you to address any concerns they may have and to consider your options, should they say no.

TEACHER DEBT RELIEF

Teachers who choose to spend time in rural schools will have their student debt wiped in a bid to cover shortages.

SCHOLARSHIPS OPEN NOW AT FLINDERS FOR 2024 ENTRY

Leading independent school Matthew Flinders Anglican College has opened its Scholarship Program to secondary students with the passion, skill and determination to explore their potential for excellence in learning and life.

Recognised as one of Queensland’s top academic schools, the college has

outstanding achievement in their schooling pursuits and a willingness to significantly contribute to the life of the college.

Other opportunities include the Music and Sports Scholarships, which open for applications in July.

Enabling students to excel in realworld learning is embedded into the Flinders curriculum to provide a quality

vocalists in Years 8 and 9, the Flinders Elite Athlete Program to support and mentor high-performing athletes to balance their sporting and academic commitments, and the Ready For ... program in the Primary school to provide differentiated learning with specialised teaching support and targeted activities in numeracy and literacy concepts.

The college also offers a diverse range

But there are concerns the debt waiver alone won’t be enough to fill hundreds of vacancies.

The federal government will clear HELP debt for those who stay four years in a “very remote location” at a Primary or Secondary school, day care centre or Preschool. Eligible teachers will have either the debt of their initial teaching degree waived or whatever debt remains when they start the position, whichever is less. The incentive will initially be open to teachers who have been in remote locations since 2019, meaning they will have a head start.

It is expected it will save teachers an average of $35,000, with up to 2000 of them likely be able to benefit immediately. An additional 500 teachers would then become eligible each year.

The Australian Education Union welcomed the initiative, saying the government needed to find long-term solutions to address the crisis.

About 300 remote schools will benefit in total. Visit education.gov.au/highereducation-loan-program/reductionhelp-debts-teachers-very-remote-areas.

ARIES (MAR 21-APR 20)

Uranus boosts your tendency to make hasty remarks and unintentional blunders. Remember, rams – it takes a short time to burn bridges and a lot longer to mend them. Then Sunday’s full moon fires up your romantic, imaginative side.

LEO (JUL 24-AUG 23)

Lions love to be the centre of attention – especially when the full moon is in Leo. But this week (with Saturn, Mars and the sun activating your relationship zone) try to get the balance right between your needs and those of the significant people in your life.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV 23-DEC 21)

With restless Mars in your relationship zone and the fiery full moon activating your adventure zone, it’s a terrific week to travel or plan an exotic escape. However, if you blurt out something when you’re in a rush or feeling stressed, then you’ll regret it later on.

Complete the list by changing one letter at a time to create a new word at each step. One possible answer shown below.

TAURUS (APR 21-MAY 21)

Avoid getting stuck in a rut. Unique Uranus is still barnstorming through your sign, and this week it links up with mercurial Mercury. So it’s time to be the real you, express your authentic self, and speak your truth. Tread carefully with a frustrated family member on Sunday.

VIRGO (AUG 24-SEP 23)

Your days are often organised with military precision. But this week there’s a fiery full moon, plus Mercury (your ruling planet) linking up with unpredictable Uranus. Strive to be more spontaneous as you toss your usual timetable and stretch your adaptability muscles.

CAPRICORN (DEC 22-JAN 20)

Monday’s stars favour some vigorous exercise in the great outdoors. But are you worried about your current bank balance? Avoid going on a spending spree or lending money. You’re liable to make impulsive decisions based purely on your emotions.

QUIZ

1. In what year did Melbourne Storm’s Cameron Smith first win the Dally M Medal?

2. Who portrayed the character of C.J. Parker on Baywatch?

3. A Paris-Brest, made of choux pastry and praline flavoured cream, is typically what shape?

4. Does British Columbia lie on the east or west coast of Canada?

5. Which Australian comedian wrote an autobiography called The Happiest Refugee?

GEMINI (MAY 22-JUN 21)

Next Sunday’s full moon fires up your brainpower. It’s a good week to focus your mind, or research a subject that has always fascinated you. Mars (charging through your sign) also trines the sun, which pushes you to pursue more adventurous options.

LIBRA (SEP 24-OCT 23)

For some loyal Librans, a rocky relationship could head off in a promising new direction. A fresh approach sees a tricky family relationship turn around. The late week full moon highlights your hopes-and-wishes zone, so it’s a good time to revisit your 2023 goals.

AQUARIUS (JAN 21-FEB 19)

The stars favour communicating from the heart and saying what’s on your mind. But – with Uranus and the full moon loosening your tongue – resist the urge to tell tales and spread gossip. Slow down, think things through and try to speak as tactfully as possible.

6. On which continent would you find the Patagonian region?

7. Which US vocal group released the singles Where Did Our Love Go and Baby Love?

8. The confection sponge toffee is better known by what name?

ONE OF THE LAST HOUSES ON A HIGHLY PRIZED BEACHFRONT IS POISED TO SELL AT AUCTION

Much-loved former family residence-turned-holiday home offered to the market for the first time in decades. WORDS: Steele Taylor.

No.13 Boolarong Crescent, Alexandra Headland, has been offered to the market for the first time in 55 years, representing a stunning and remarkable opportunity for prospective buyers.

It is one of only two houses along the beachfront at Alexandra Headland, which is dotted with luxury apartments and boutique businesses and restaurants.

Marketing agent Kevin Annetts, of Kevin Annetts Property, says the property is ultra rare and impressive.

“It’s one of the last houses on the beachfront at Alexandra Headland,” he says. “There’s only two left – that one and the one near the Bluff.

“So, here is a chance (for prospective buyers) to secure one of the most iconic homes on the Sunshine Coast.”

The property, just 60m from the beach, is in a prized location off Alexandra Parade and just across the road from one of the best surf breaks in the country.

“It’s an incredible headland,” Mr Annetts says.

“There are great waves, a great patrolled beach, a great surf club and easy access to Mooloolaba.

“Alexandra Headland is a gem of the Sunshine Coast, where you can leave the car at home and walk everywhere.”

The 745sq m property boasts uninterrupted north-facing views, with two street frontages.

The three-bedroom, three-bathroom house with four car spaces has been renovated and extended.

“Interest in the property is phenomenal,” Mr Annetts says.

“There are parties who want to retain it as a residence or holiday home or weekender, and it is an exclusive site to build a palatial home.

“It also has a 12m height limit so could be developed into an exclusive apartment building.”

Mr Annetts says there is significant interest from prospective buyers from around southeast Queensland, rural locations and interstate.

“So it’s going to be interesting. There will be some strong competition in bidding,” he says.

Mr Annetts has lived, worked and surfed in the area for most of his life and used to live next door to the property, which remained in the same family for more than five decades.

“I have seen it extended and looked after by the owners,” he says.

“It’s been used as a holiday home and as a residence.

“They (the owners) have bought and sold properties in Alex for years, are very passionate about the area and will still retain some property at Alex.”

The property, via agents Greg Young, of Young Property Group, and Mr Annetts, will be auctioned on site on Saturday, January 28, at 11am.

An architectural masterpiece of 27 residences across 8 waterside levels, B I A N C O re-envisions modern coastal luxury set against a breathtaking backdrop of panoramic views of The Pumicestone Passage, Bribie Island and beyond to the Coral Sea.

Mediterranean inspired, B I A N C O effortlessly unites the most enviable elements of coastal design to breathe sleek cosmopolitan flair into a coveted Sunshine Coast lifestyle.

These magnificent, strata titled residences offer 2, 3 and 4 bedroom configurations - each with their own styles to reflect the influence and passion of the design.

Prices start from $1,075,000

SURF REPORT

with MWP’s man in the water

So they say there is croc floating around Stradbroke island. Maybe a few locals are trying to thin the crowd out.

None the less, not sure I would want to see a croc float pass me in the line up.

As for this weekend, it will be small but the conditions look nice so get out amongst it and enjoy.

Hopefully, you survived bogan day, I mean Australia day, and enjoy the coming weekend.

Later.
