25.01.2022 Well hi there gang...yep, I'm back after a rather unexpected stomach issue last Thursday & Friday - maybe it was something I ate? Oh well, B.K is all good now on this Monday, November 16th & great to be back in your company. Just a basic brekky this morning...the usual Mocha, muesli bar & fruit'n'yoghurt...they always seem to go well with headlines... Making news this morning: A local MP, who was awarded an assistant Ministerial position in the Palaszczuk cabinet, has gone st...raight to work on his new job. Bundamba M.P Lance McCallum has been awarded a position in the Palaszczuk cabinet and is now the Assistant Minister for Hydrogen Development... We're being urged to drive to conditions on country roads this National Road Safety Week, with over a dozen people killed in the Somerset region alone since 2008... And Tamborine’s Syd Norman has been selected as the Scenic Rim's Town Crier with Peter Brown from Boonah appointed as Assistant. Your weather: Patchy fog & early cloud clearing, then mostly sunny with a high fire danger, winds North-Easterly up to 25 kays an hour, maximums of 36 for Ipswich, 37 in Gatton. Holy dooly! The Secret Sound STILL hasn't gone off & it's now worth over 5-GRAND!! Go on, have a guess just after 7:30 this morning, while you listen to Marnie & Campo getting up to their usual antics on the Brekky Gig, Live from 5 on River 949...Mocha number 2 time!
