Really enjoyed the LGA Communicators Forum. It was full of ideas and conversations that made me stop and think about how we engage and communicate in our communities.

Citizenship isn’t just about voting; it’s how we show up, who we bring along, and the invitations we make.

One year to go.

It's no secret, the 2026 South Australian state election will be held on 21 March 2026 to elect members to the 56th Parliament of South Australia. The election will be conducted by ECSA, as the independent body answerable to Parliament.

Discover your journey by exploring the stories of those who came before us.

Museums and galleries hold reflections from our past — memories that shape our present and inspire our future.

Reconnect, reflect, and cherish history in every exhibit and artwork. Stories are waiting; step inside

Discovering where mum and dad lived, grew up, started a family. I feel so at home here.

Sometimes you just snap away and think, i'll work out a post or comment later... because the aim is to remember the scene or image.

Sometimes you don't share.

But not always 😝

Chinese new year. I'm a snake, so this one is for me.

In London.

I do love a good art gallery.

London. National Portrait Gallery. Yes! Ticked lots of boxes. Could have spent days there. A snippet.

London.

People everywhere. It started with a chinese new year street parade and celebration, carried onto a packed national portrait gallery, to outside Buckingham Palace and then to Oxford Street.

Mummy needs a bex and lie down 😝

Nom noms. Edinburgh highland, right to the local Leith fare. Spoilt for choice.

First 'red cappachino'.

South African Rooibush tea spiced with cinnamon bark, jasmine blossom & a gentle
kiss of star anise. Espressed just like a regular cappuccino drizzled with blossom
honey & cinnamon on top.

Who waits for retirement to holiday? No one. We South Australians have been holidaying all our life.

These days they don't come around often enough. Some holidays were cut short due to the pandemic, others prefer short stays. Whatever, we all deserve a break in pace.

Big hint - if you wish to chat to me via the message inbox - know my name and where I'm from (and perhaps what I do from my bio) BEFORE reaching out. Otherwise, don't expect me to engage.
