wow factor

With the Canberra forecast at -2c for tomorrow, I miss our old town in Queensland.
Not only is the weather warmer but they think differently up there.

Money worries so town prints its own

They are going to print their own money.

The Baroon Dollar - named after Lake Baroon near Maleny - will be printed and sold at local, independent businesses to encourage locals and visitors to keep buying up locally.

Good luck to Baroon Dollar, I hope the scheme works.
