Pride

June is Pride month. When I was growing up, I didn’t know what being gay was. Seriously, it was not something that was talked about, I literally had no clue until I was probably in the last couple of years of high school. Which is kind of weird because now […]

From the editor – Disconnecting

I went to one of the local supermarkets to do my shopping last week.  I tend to get bits and pieces from where ever, but I do like that place with the random stuff in the middle aisles. It wasn’t until I arrived at the checkout I realised they had […]

Looking forward to being revitalised

Work is well underway on the Beaudesert Town Centre Revitalisation program. Quite frankly I’m excited about this, really excited. I know there are a number of people who have been a bit negative about the revitalisation plans, mainly whether or not we need a new library and where it should […]

From the Editor – Thank You

Thank You This edition sadly is the last edition where Barry Kenny has provided our History article. Barry advised me this week that he is unable to continue the column due to family commitments, which is completely understandable. I wanted to acknowledge the contribution he has made to the Bulletin […]

A Time to Reset

Well, COVID finally paid our household a visit. Talking to friends and family I feel like we were one of the last ones to get it.  When I say ‘get it’, at this point I have had two negative RATs, so maybe I don’t have it, maybe the symptoms are […]
