Our society provides quite a lot of school holiday programs for children aged 7-14. Opportunities that don’t cost mega bucks crater for the 15-25 age range. And even after 18 years of age, young people still need free, positive shared experiences to help with personal growth and socialisation

Remember.. the report of the banking royal commission was handed over to the government, commissioner Kenneth Hayne and treasurer Frydenberg held a brief but extremely awkward photo opp. When a photographer asked the pair to shake hands, Hayne says a clear ‘no’ while Frydenberg smiles awkwardly.

Did they do Young Liars? I'm very, very late to hearing their music but it's oh so good!

I too took the Canberra weather as a great opportunity to hurl pelleted fertiliser on everything in the garden. Such a pungent aroma!

Perhaps .. a lot of Scottish people emigrated to Australia.
Also I believe the bagpipe was used to lead the clans into battle.
