Happy holidays
2020 has been a year we will never forget. There have been long periods of great fear, uncertainty, and confusion.  

To say we’ve been challenged is an understatement, but it’s been a privilege to be there with you throughout it all for Breakfast on ABC Radio Darwin.  The resilience, humour and compassion we’ve had for one another all year, and to top it off raising over $41,000 in the ABC Radio Darwin Christmas Appeal just shows that we are all in this together.

Thank you for sharing it all with me on Breakfast, and on behalf of all the team at ABC Darwin, I look forward to being with your again next year. Wishing you all a safe and happy Festive season and New Year.

All your favourite presenters will be back on ABC Radio Darwin from January, 18th 2021.

I've got other bills.” Courtney Mellor and her four kids are just one of the families you’ve helped through our Christmas Appeal.

Refreshing noodle salad 
In the warm weather, there is nothing more satisfying than a chilled soba noodle salad.

Soba noodle salad is a blank canvas for bright and vibrant flavours. Here, the lovely vinegary crunch of marinated cucumbers and smooth, velvety avocado are a wonderful surprise next to the earthy soba noodles. It's a tasty dish that takes less than 10 minutes to prepare.
