Easter is observed in the mines.

There was no one Bible story to be seen in the Herald TV manual on Good Friday, according to Coral Button of North Epping, who was celebrating Easter. I was anticipating Jeffrey Hunter’s portrayal of Jesus Christ in bald chest once more.

No one Easter festival, Ten Commandments, or Holiday Inn, to name a few, Lesley Green of Castle Hill said. On Elm Street, Blockers, and Nightmare were the only ones that stood out. Almost lovely movies that resemble Easter! Come on developers, would better!

A relaxed look over the cement walls of the Bridge Road School in Camperdown, where my wife and I were walking along Parramatta Road on the weekend, revealed a strange view: an enclosure with five or six kookaburras perched inside, according to Tony Tarplee of Newtown. We wondered why these birds were kept in a box at a university. Do they fall under the education system? They might be being rehabilitated. Or are they merely domesticated as dogs? We’d like to learn more. Both curious and curious.

Bunty Handyside of Noosaville ( Qld )” can relate to Peter Craig’s story about the availability of wine in Mount Isa ( C8 ). When my parents and I stopped overnight in Sydney and had breakfast at the restaurant in 1960, we were driving from Darwin. My dad requested a jug of claret to go with our food, but he was politely told that” make says we don’t have no vegetables now.” Dad tried to explain, but he stumbled gradually.

” A few years back, we were in a rural area of NSW, and the local restaurant had several pints but just two lonely bottles of wine in the fridge,” recalls Maggie Hamilton of North Sydney. We inquired the price,$ 18 for a glass of wine with dinner,” Looking to have a glass with dinner.” Although it seemed a little rough, we decided to say” OK, two please.” Two whole jars were presented moments later. Pay”!

Patricia Farrar of Concord sees a marketing opportunity in the chaos of the world right now:” I can’t wait to see a restaurant called The Strait of Hummus open in Lakemba.”

” I wonder how many people remember the poems that were displayed in Sydney trams in the 1950s and praised Woods ‘” Great Peppermint Cure,” writes David Morrison of Springwood. I once committed one to memory, but it seemed preferable to ignore it when taking an exam to find great writing.
