Good morning Valued Subscriber,
We witnessed an exciting game last night which placed the Brumbies just 80 minutes away from a grand final. As Caden Helmers reports, they have set up a semi-final showdown with the Blues after rallying to beat the Otago Highlanders 32-16 in a quarter-final Canberra's Vikings Group is heading over the border to set up a new club with 150 poker machines in Jerrabomberra. The club says ACT's crackdown on pokies is making it harder to operate in Canberra than in NSW. But, as Steve Evans writes, some locals are unhappy at the "ginormous" club heading their way.
Reporter Lucy Arundell looks into the many challenges facing Canberra's charity shops - including the low quality of clothing in this era of fast fashion. In Relax, Megan Doherty speaks with Candace Bushnell, creator of the Sex and the City. At 65, she's still living life large in the Big Apple, and she's on her way to Canberra for a one-woman show full of noughties nostalgia. And don't miss sport, where you'll read all about the Brumbies quarter final against the Otago Higlanders.
We are in for a brisk morning with a top of 13 degrees across the city today. John-Paul Moloney, managing editor |
