Oakey swells with pride as street artist Fintan Magee uses library as his latest canvas abc.net.au/news/2022-06-26/r…

Murals are the new 'big things' keeping these small towns alive

They bring art lovers to regional areas, but these big murals are also inspiring and reinvigorating residents of small Aussie towns.

Good one via @PeterGunders "Recent National Party leaders, and other senior Nationals, seem to have gone the way of the Liberals, and been dancing to a mining tune rather than an agricultural and pastoralist tune." #auspoI abc.net.au/news/2022-05-31/w…

Who is David Littleproud, the man handed the helm of a re-enthused National Party?

David Littleproud becomes leader of the National Party and, while not facing the same existential crisis as the Liberals, has to find the right way to lead a party at its own crossroads.

Just FYI I’m a 29 year old journo who reports primarily on rural issues and the environment. Today this kind lady had some words for me in line at the @Mackay_Coffee. Big thanks to the staff for defending me and calling security

We are so lucky to live in a regional city that is home to so many refugees, who have added to the richness of our lives in so many ways (sport being just one). A great yarn from @PeterGunders abc.net.au/news/2021-08-04/p…

At 111, Queensland-born Dexter Kruger is the oldest living Australian. What’s his secret? Six prawns a day and a tin of sardines with his soup. Although his celebration might be smaller this year, I wish him the happiest of birthdays.🎂🥳 abc.net.au/news/2021-01-13/a…
'I have half a dozen prawns every day,' says the oldest living Australian, aged 111

This is a loss, no doubt. But if you want to be an ABC journalist, there are plenty of pathways. Here’s what I think is the best one. 1. Work hard at uni to get experience while there. I don’t think I’ve ever checked an applicant’s uni grades. I want to know what you can *do*.

The end of an era! @JulianBAbbott read his final 7:45 bulletin this morning. There are still nine to go until the flagship radio bulletin finishes on ABC radio. But it was Julian's last, so he took a minute to thank everyone involved over the years. #abcradio #abcnews
