GIVEN that my birthday falls the day before our national day, people have always told me that I’m lucky. That I am fortunate to always have a public holiday the day after birthday celebrations. That being born so close to Australia Day is a stroke of luck which connects me with national pride.

Hats off to the firies... AFTER two weeks of consistently high temperatures, something had to give and bushfires are the result.

Adios 2012 – it’s been fun

It’s customary at this time of year for editors to get all doey-eyed and reflective with indulgent tributes to the sound judgement of loyal readers, the faithful ministrations of contributors and the generally humbling good fortune of being in such an esteemed chair.

Dear Santa... bring me a sustainable outcome for all stakeholders...

Dear Santa -I know it’s only nine more sleeps and I know you’re busy – what with lodging your flight plan and doing the workplace safety induction for all the elves and the reindeer – but I’m trying to think of something you could whack in my stocking this year and, quite frankly Saint Nick (can I call you that?), I’m completely stumped.
