24.01.2022 South Australia has done a great job limiting the spread of CO-VID19, but it can be a bit routine being at home. Shake it up with our next (6th!) Taylor & Forgie puzzle book! Sam, Mark & Erecca are keeping socially distanced whilst putting their crossword and sudoku skills to the test! We have started contacting those who signed up from issue #1, or if you would like copies, pop into our Cowan st office or give us a call 830am to 5pm on 8522 1734.

21.01.2022 We have all been disappointed with the latest CO-Vid 19 figures in SA. With the new restrictions now in place, we can continue to host Funerals at our Adelaide Road Chapel (50 person capacity, can have refreshments following with a complimentary livestream of the service) or our Cowan Street Chapel (40 person capacity, no refreshments following, no livestream). At each location we are continuing to record attendances as instructed and provide hand washing and sanitising stations upon entry. Please stay safe!
