Welcome to the lucky to be alive country
Put another shrimp on this barbecue…
Not sure what sort of Google review the French tourist who decided to spend the night with friends at Glenview last week is going to leave.
The poor guy had just stopped at a campsite for the night with friends but instead found himself next to the neighbours from hell. Who knows what the idiot playing with fire was doing – what was he cooking we wonder? – but either way they sure did burn the place down.
The tourist didn’t say where he was heading next, but hopefully it’s not Wolf Creek.
Beautiful one day, razed the next.
CAPTAINS OF INDUSTRIAL
So it turns out the old Coles site (or proposed site anyway) is going to be turned into something a whole lot less appealing for shoppers.
Instead of a drive-thru Maccas and shopping centre, we’re going to get a bunch of sheds, heavy machinery, trucks and stuff.
According to the proposal it’s going to “positively contribute towards increasing new activity within the major regional activity centre of Beerwah”.
All well and good, but me thinks we need more shopping options.
STICKS AND STONES
I gave Billy Slater some advice before the second State of Origin, which he duly ignored, instead deciding to make a mountain out of a molehill over some nasty words said on talkback radio.
Whatever it takes I say.

The Sunshine Coast blobosphere Awards were apparently on last week.
I thought they were going to be thrown on the scrapheap as part of the $20 million in cost savings the council had to make after that little accounting mishap.
Not to be, and far be it for me to criticise the good work these winners do, but bring back the Australia Day Awards please – at least you can get Commonwealth grants to hold those.
