From the editor Being told you have cancer is something no one wants to hear. It certainly came as a big shock for 50-year-old Sunshine Coast father Adam Johnson, who was diagnosed with prostate cancer last year.

Alarmingly, nearly 72 Australian men are diagnosed every day with prostate cancer, with more than 3900 men estimated to die from this disease in 2024.

But this larger-than-life character has faced his health challenge head-on, putting his weight behind this year’s Wishlist K’s 4 Cancer, an annual event that raises much-needed funds for cancer research. And he’s urging others to get involved.

Adam bravely shares his story with us in this week’s edition, plus you will discover more about the event and how you can register to take part.

Turn to page 10 for all the details.

We also have a great fashion feature for you, with some great ideas to brighten up your spring/ summer wardrobe.

Plus, as always, we bring you right up to date with all your local news, what’s on, as well as all your favourite regular columns.

Until next week. Enjoy the read.

AGENDA roof over your head comes first. Even if it means skipping bills or other important expenses.”

Over the past decade, the average sizes of home loans in all states have shown significant increases.

“Mortgage debts are sky high and the hard truth is that people’s expenses exceed their incomes, leaving households very vulnerable.”

Whitten says missed and late

“Aussies are running out of money… and have to choose which bills to pay and which to delay”

AUSSIE MORTGAGE HOLDERS FINDING IT TOUGH According to new research, one in four mortgage holders have to skip paying another expense in order to make home loan repayments.

M

ortgage holders are in survival mode skipping everything from meals to mobile bills to stay on top of monster repayments, according to new research.

A Finder survey of 1062 respondents – 346 of whom have a mortgage – revealed one in four have had to skip paying for another expense to prioritise keeping a roof over their head.

That’s an estimated 825,000 mortgage holders who are short on cash every month. As of July 2024, the average home loan in Australia was $641,143, showing a 1.1 per cent increase compared to the previous month and an eight per cent

increase when compared to the same time last year.

Finder’s data shows one in 10 borrowers admit they’ve had to skip out on groceries, while the same proportion have skipped a meal to cover their growing mortgage repayments.

Energy bills, petrol and credit card bills were all shelved so mortgagors had the cash for their home loan.

Richard Whitten, home loans expert at Finder, says many are drowning in mortgage debt.

“Aussies are increasingly running out of money each month and have to choose which bills to pay and which to delay.

“When you’re struggling financially, a

payments on bills and utilities may impact your credit score.

“If you are worried you won’t be able to afford a bill, get in touch with your provider straight away as they may be able to arrange a payment plan or suggest other hardship arrangements.

“You want to minimise credit damage from late payments so consider shopping around for a cheaper interest rate or going interest only on your mortgage until you can improve serviceability.”

The research shows borrowers had missed payments on personal loans, Buy Now Pay Later and mobile phone bills to meet their mortgage responsibilities.

Health insurance, kids school fees, home insurance and internet had all been missed.

Finder’s tips to manage mortgage stress: 1. Take stock of your situation. Look at your monthly spending and budget. Are there any obvious expenses you can cut

out, like Uber Eats, eating out, etc? You don’t have to cut out all of the fun in your life, but if you can find ways to drop a few non-essential spends, you can free up some money to go towards other bills and your mortgage. Next, look for ways to pay less for what you already use. If you can compare and pay less for your internet, mobile phone plan and energy, those extra savings can go towards your mortgage repayments.

2. Refresh your home loan. Take a close look at your home loan to see what your options are to reduce your outgoings.

One option is to ask your bank to move your mortgage to interest-only repayments. This will lower your repayments significantly in the short term, as you’re not making any payments towards the principal, you’re just paying the interest. Interest-only loans cost you more in the long run because you end up paying more interest, but switching to interest only for the short term (12–24 months) could give you some breathing space.

Alternatively, refinance your mortgage.

3. Consider ways to boost your income.

Could you get weekend work through Airtasker or Uber? Perhaps you could rent or use some of the space in your property in a variety of ways. You could also ask for a raise at work, or look for another job with a higher salary. Also downgrading your car or selling valuable items you might not need can help with a short-term cash injection.

4. Ask for help. Your lender might be able to help you if you’re struggling to make repayments. It is in your lender’s best interest to help you, as it wants to keep you as a long-term customer paying interest. Your lender may be able to assist with hardship assistance schemes and/or repayment holidays.

FAST FACTS

Tentacle taste test

Did you know?

Historic highlights

The Amazon River, while not the longest, is the world’s largest by water volume. It pumps out more water than the next seven largest rivers combined. Spanning over 7000 kilometres, it flows through the heart of the Amazon Rainforest. Fun fact: during the wet season, the Amazon can expand to over 48 kilometres wide, transforming parts of the forest into a sprawling river system.

Octopuses have a secret superpower – they can taste with their arms. Each of their eight limbs is equipped with specialised suction cups that contain sensory cells, allowing them to detect both touch and chemical signals. This means an octopus can taste and feel its environment just by touching it. Even cooler, they use this ability to hunt prey, feeling around for hidden crabs or shellfish in crevices. It’s like having eight highly sensitive tongues that can also grab lunch.

Quote of the week

By the numbers

In 1859, the Great Stink of London made history. A heatwave turned the River Thames into a foul-smelling swamp of waste, overwhelming the city with its stench. The smell was so unbearable that it disrupted Parliament, forcing lawmakers to act. This infamous event led to the creation of London’s modern sewer system, designed by Joseph Bazalgette. His revolutionary network not only cleared the air but also laid the foundation for modern urban sanitation, saving countless lives from cholera outbreaks and disease.

Today in history – October 10 1933 – In one of the oldest unsolved cases in aviation history, the United Airlines Boeing 247 which was flying from Newark, New Jersey to Oakland California exploded mid-air and crashed near Chesterton, Indiana. All seven passengers and crew members died in the incident. To this day, it is not known what caused the explosion.

FEATURE STORY

TOGETHER, WE CAN SPREAD SUNSHINE A cancer diagnosis can be life-shattering for a person and their loved ones, as father Adam Johnson has discovered. He’s urging locals to get behind Wishlist’s K’s for Cancer to help brighten the lives of those who need it most.

dam Johnson is a larger-thanlife character – his bold shirts, infectious smile and charisma brighten up the room.

But last year, aged just 50, the father of three received a devastating cancer diagnosis. He has since begun the difficult process of preparing himself and his loved ones, including his wife, that he may not be here much longer.

“I had to have a conversation with Liz about when I’m gone, how it’s okay to love again,” Mr Johnson says.

“Because the likelihood is she’ll be 50 years old and widowed.”

For Mr Johnson, the alarm bells started ringing after a quick toilet break led to a concerning find.

“I went to the toilet, and it all turned bad. Just instantly. I’ve just looked down and it was just blood,” he says.

The following day, Adam’s doctor told him to go straight to the emergency department at the Sunshine Coast University Hospital, instructing him that doctors would be waiting for him.

It was there that Mr Johnson was told the most devastating news – he had Stage 4 advanced prostate cancer, and there was no chance it could be cured.

“I’ve never felt alone, and I had no right to feel alone because I never am, but for that moment – I felt deeply alone and lost,” he says.

With an estimated 26,368 men likely to be diagnosed this year alone, prostate cancer is the secondmost common cause of death from cancer in Australian men.

Mr Johnson is now facing his diagnosis head-on, resigning from his job as a wine broker and wedding celebrant to spend his precious time going on adventures with family and friends.

As part of that adventure, Mr Johnson has bravely stepped up to be the ambassador of the Wishlist K’s 4 Cancer, which will be held on October 20 at Lake Kawana. Formerly known as Wishlist Fun Run, the event invites the community to walk, run, roll or stroll with their dog to

raise funds to support Sunshine Coast cancer patients and their families.

Starting at Sportsman Parade, just across from Sunshine Coast Stadium, participants can choose from the two-anda-half-, five- or 10-kilometre distances.

The day will also be a morning of fun for the whole family with live entertainment, face painting, a jumping castle, barbecue and drinks.

“To help someone who you might not ever meet, is that the most beautiful thing you can do? I think quite possibly,” Mr Johnson says.

“One of the easiest ways people can help is to sign up for K’s 4 Cancer, then you tell your mates, who tell their mates and by doing so the impact you have is tenfold.

“Together, we’re going to lift people up from the darkest place in their lives and we’re going to give them some sunshine; that’s why we need your help.”

Proceeds from the event will be used to purchase two essential pieces of equipment for local breast cancer patients – the Sentimag and Faxitron machines.

These advanced technologies will replace the traditional and often painful ‘hook and wire’ method with the insertion of a tiny magnetic seed.

This allows for more precise surgery, less tissue removal, faster recovery, and fewer follow-up procedures, ultimately improving patient outcomes.

cancer increases as you get older.

The AIHW data shows deaths from prostate cancer have risen by around 30 per cent since 2007, with more than 3900 men estimated to die from this disease in 2024 – that’s more than 11 men a day.

However, 95.8 per cent of men diagnosed with prostate cancer will survive for at least five years and 91 per cent will live more than 10 years.

More than 250,000 Australian men are alive today after being diagnosed with prostate cancer at some point in the past 37 years.

IMAGE: JODIE MODRIC PHOTOGRAPHY

According to data published by the Australian Health Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW), prostate cancer accounts for around 16 per cent of all newly diagnosed cancers.

With an ageing and increasing population, the number of men being diagnosed is likely to continue increasing into the foreseeable future.

Nearly 72 Australian men are diagnosed every day, with one in five at risk of being diagnosed by the time they turn 85 years old, according to the estimates.

This is because the risk of prostate

2024 Generation Innovation winners Spencer Abbott and Jack Coombes

About Generation Innovation

CREATING CHANGE Two teen entrepreneurs are well on their way to success after winning the Generation Innovation Challenge. WORDS: Caitlin Zerafa.

C

hannelling their own experience, two young entrepreneurs are on track to turn their business into the next big thing.

Jack Coombes and Spencer Abbott have been announced as the 2024 Generation Innovation (GI) Challenge winners for their business, Launched Sportswear.

The pair has designed practical and fun grip socks for everyone, from athletes to those with a physical impairment.

The founders impressed GI judges and the audience with their idea and commercial acumen, earning them the top

honour. Now in its tenth year, 10 young entrepreneurs representing eight ventures participated in the 2024 challenge.

They participated in masterclasses, boot camps, market research, pitching and interviews to help perfect their ideas.

This culminated in three finalists being selected to present a pitch video to a panel of judges on October 2.

This year’s runners-up were Georgia Winnett and Mia Mullarvey with their Bear-Able business idea, as well as James Sadler for his Guardian’s Angel pitch. The Focus Pen founder Quinn Kruizinga was

Buderim's Law Firm P Proudly dl servicing i i B Buderim d i and d the Sunshine Coast since 1981.

The GI Challenge is an independently run entrepreneurship program for 15-21 year olds from the Sunshine Coast and Noosa regions. Since 2015 the challenge empowers young entrepreneurs to translate an idea into a viable business through mentoring, skills development and business connections in a collaborative and inspiring environment.

For more information: generationinnovation.com.au. awarded the Spirit of GI Award.

As talented football players, Spencer and Jack were both struck down by injury, sparking the idea for their business.

“What inspired Jack and I to develop Launched Sportswear was when we both tore major ligaments in our knees slipping while playing representative rugby league,” Spencer says.

“This setback unfortunately ended our NRL dreams, but allowed us to focus on our passion for business and try to help others stay less injury prone through grip socks.”

Jack says the grip socks can be used anywhere, from sports fields and gyms to hospitals and homes.

“Our product provides rubberised insoles in the bottom of our socks,” Jack

says. “This provides stability and grip, therefore, for the user limits in-shoe movement, increases balance, traction and confidence.”

The young entrepreneurs who already have an online store agree the GI Challenge has been an invaluable tool to steer them in the right direction.

“The Generation Innovation Challenge has provided myself with the fundamentals of operating business, key public speaking and pitching strategies and, most importantly, the confidence to fulfil my venture,” Jack says.

Spencer says the next step for Launched Sportswear is to expand the offerings. “Next up for Jack and I will be continuing to sell our grip socks online while expanding our catalogue,” he says.

“We also hope to connect with more businesses in the local community, whether they be in the medical or sports fields, to extend our wholesale reach.”

GI chair Shane Cunningham says this year’s cohort demonstrated growth and enthusiasm during the program.

“This year’s GI Challenge was extra special being our 10th year,” he says.

“Generation Innovation is proud to have supported more than 160 young entrepreneurs, some of whom are now giving back by helping to deliver the program.”

We have built our foundations in Buderim as experts in all our specialties, driven by our commitment to delivering quality service and successful outcomes.

PROFILE

MARCIA’S STILL SHINING BRIGHT With a stellar career that spans 50 years, Australian songstress Marcia Hines just keeps getting better. And this month, she will share her talent with a Sunshine Coast audience.

IMAGE: RICCARDO RAITI

A

ustralia’s musical treasure, Marcia Hines, has been gracing the stage for 50 incredible years.

The songstress first came to the attention of Australian audiences when she was just 16 and was cast in the stage production of rock musical Hair. She went on to build an illustrious career – becoming the first black woman to star in Jesus Christ Superstar, further cementing her reputation as a judge on Australian Idol, and garnering countless chart-topping hits globally.

Currently on the road for her Still Shining concert tour, Marcia is set to perform a one-night-only show at The Events Centre, Caloundra, on October 19.

This musical showcase is a celebration of her career and will feature charting songs from her vast repertoire.

The musical legend has sold more than three million copies of her 23 albums, been inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame and awarded the Order of Australia (AM) for her services to the entertainment industry.

Marcia chatted with My Weekly Preview ahead of her sold-out Caloundra show about her dazzling career.

How do you reflect on such a successful career?

First and foremost, I’m just very grateful to be here. It’s easy to look at other people’s success and be impressed by that, but really, I’m just working hard and enjoying it all immensely.

If you could give one piece of advice to a 16-yearold Marcia about to go on stage for the opening night of Hair, what would it be? Are you kidding? Why would

she listen to me!

Do you have a particular song you love to perform? Which one and why? Fire and Rain. I love James Taylor. It’s the first song I ever recorded, and it’s still a beautiful song to sing.

Your Still Shining tour is a celebration of your music. What does it mean to you to bring this show to the Sunshine Coast? It makes me very happy to know that people still want to hear me sing and we’ve tried to put together a repertoire that reflects that – a lot of the old songs that people know me for.

What is your favourite thing to do when you are on the Sunshine Coast? I had friends up there and I’d go up to visit once in a while. I love to walk the beaches and do a little exploring.

You’ve been prolific in supporting and mentoring aspiring singers and musicians through your various roles over the years. How important is it that artists are supported within the music industry? It’s extremely important and the reason is that people like John Waters and Reg Livermore were very generous with their time and knowledge with me when I was a kid.

Marking your 50th anniversary in music is no mean feat, but what’s next for you? I usually leave these things to my manager, but I will be in Brisbane for Grease the Musical through January and from February, filming Australian Idol for three months.

After that, I might have a little rest!

Valid until 31/10/24

Pathways, trails and roads It’s great to be able to progressively improve pathway connections and local roads. An investigation is underway into potential design solutions for upgrading an existing footpath along Yandina Coolum Road, including connecting pedestrian crossing points. Noosa Council has joined in support to progress a pathway connection from Peregian Breeze to Peregian Beach.

Completion of a pathway at Wharf Road, Bli Bli will continue this year and construction is just about to start to seal Monak and Lakewood Road, Peregian Beach. Connecting with nature has been made easier with trail bridges installed around the creeks at Lake Weyba. This is a grade four trail.

CHOIRBOYS – RUN TO PARADISE As young twenty-something-year-olds, Choirboys formed in 1978, growing up on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. The wild, hedonistic lifestyle the band witnessed of the youth in the ’70s is ultimately what gave birth to their seminal rock anthem, Run To Paradise. It’s all about the stories that sound all too familiar within the culture widely assumed of the music industry – and they tell it all. Run To Paradise is a “spilling of the beans” of sorts. It’s part story, part song that chronicles through some of the wildest, most risqué, outrageous and downright hilarious stories of Australian rock group.

MY OPINION

JOY, LOVE AND A LEAGUE JERSEY

WHERE ARE ALL THE DOCTORS?

Ashley Robinson is off to Melbourne for a wedding where the dress code will be a little unusual and a whole lot of fun.

A recent injury left Jane Stephens painfully searching for a GP appointment, only to discover securing one is not quite so easy.

W

hen you get to 67 (well, I am nearly there), nothing much should be a surprise. Except maybe waking up in the morning with no aches and pains – now, that would be a shock.

No sore back, no posture like a half-opened pen knife, no aching feet until the blood slowly pumps through the fat little body. If that wasn’t there, I certainly would be surprised.

I mention this because next week I have to go to a wedding in Melbourne.

The surprising part was when I read the invitation: ‘1.30pm wedding in Fitzroy Gardens. Dress: Girls, look fabulous. Boys, retro rugby league jersey.’

All I could picture was me in the middle of Melbourne on a busy Saturday afternoon, stumbling around in broad daylight in a Raiders jersey with Canberra Milk emblazoned on the front. Not good.

That said, I was comforted in the fact that there would be 40 other blokes with me.

But then I thought: what if my invitation was the only one that said that?

I would look like an idiot. So, I rang a mate who said his had the same on it.

This made me feel slightly less stressed but still a little wary. What if on everyone else’s invitation it said: “If Tugboat rings, you tell him you are wearing a footy jersey. Dress code is actually formal, but don’t tell that tosser”.

I was back to being stressed. Then I thought, ‘Hey, how bad can it be when I look back at my track record?’’

I did about eight years from the start of this century doing pantomimes at Christmas. Dressed as the Fairy God Mother in a tutu, footy socks and work boots, Deep Fryer Tuck, a Door Mouse. All stone-cold sober, mind you. How bad can it be in Fitzroy Gardens with a couple of Carlton Draughts under my tail?

I was starting to feel better when I remembered the time I won a fancy dress competition as Uncle Fester in front of 500 people. I’d put flashing light bulb in my mouth just so we got to win a family trip to Sea World. Just last week, I impersonated a female stripper at Sea FM for a mate’s hens’ party. So, there is probably nothing that can happen to me in Fitzroy that compares to me in Falcons budgie smugglers, so bring it on.

Ashley Robinson is Chairman of Sunshine Coast Falcons and Sunshine Coast Thunder Netball and a lifetime Sunshine Coast resident.

G

etting medical help right now causes all kinds of pain. It is a pain to find a doctor. The waiting at every step causes aches deep and long. And holy moly, your hip pocket hurts like the blazes.

If you are not a child, pensioner or concession card holder, a simple GP visit costs about $100, and the tests to find out what is wrong are pricey too. People are putting off doctor’s visits so they can eat as cozzie livs bites, and I get that.

But you only get the privilege of forking out the moolah when you actually have a doctor’s consultation – and they can be like hen’s teeth on the Coast.

Unfortunately, I was given a first-hand lesson in this recently, befallen by blinding knee pain while running in the pre-dawn.

My regular doctor was away, and the receptionist reported the next available appointment with any other medic was two weeks hence.

This would not do, I whined: the agony indicated this was no trifling niggle, and while I was confident I was not going to die from my affliction, I have had experience enough to know I needed a diagnosis and

treatment tout de suite. I was added to the cancellation waiting list and told I would be called if I got lucky.

Not one to sit on my hands I worked the phones, calling any medical centre I could find within coo-ee. My ears rang with the repeated clanging of doors closing.

I called my surgery again, and while I still came up empty (pester power might work for toddlers, but not me), the receptionist advised me to give the walk-in Minor Injury and Illness Clinic at Caloundra or Sunshine Coast University Hospital Emergency a go. No dice. The waiting times were guessed at four to seven hours. The thought of sitting beside coughing, bleeding people in the waiting rooms did nothing to ease my pain and I left.

A restless day and night later, I got a cancellation spot with a GP, who ordered tests. I waited for the tests and waited again for another cancellation spot to get the test reports. My wallet more than $500 lighter, I was assured my knee was in bad but not catastrophic shape and was given a protocol for healing.

Patience, particularly for patients, is apparently a virtue.

MY OPINION

Justin Scattini,

Ord Minnett Buderim

THE DOVISH FED VERSUS THE CAUTIOUS RBA The US Fed’s aggressive 50bps start of its easing cycle overlooked “solid” 3.0 per cent YoY real GDP growth, “low” 4.2 per cent unemployment and “somewhat elevated” 2.7 per cent YoY core inflation.

This emphasised an easing inflation trend, the 0.8ppt rise in unemployment off 50-year lows and benign inflation expectations.

Compared to the nine easing cycles of the past 40 years, the Fed is more dovish given key economic indicators are still more overheated than in the cycles of the low inflation period.

Markets are more confident, with the most inverted yield curve discounting a return to a neutral 2.9 per cent Fed rate, whilst the most expensive Forward PE of ~21.7x discounts strong growth and low rates and risk.

By contrast to the dovish Fed, the RBA appears cautious, with sticky domestic inflation, elevated labour costs, weak productivity and fiscal stimulus likely to keep local rates higher and higher for longer.

The RBA is not as well-placed as the Fed. First, Australia inflation has not fallen near as much as the US, with the CPI ex-volatile and holidays in Aug-24, adjusted for electricity 3.6 per cent YoY, still well above the RBA’s two to three per cent target.

Second, labour costs have peaked, but unlike the US, have not eased materially. Australia private wages in 2Q24 rose 4.1 per cent YoY, the same as the US. In Australia, however, productivity in this cycle is -0.2 per cent per annum versus the pre-COVID cycle 1.0 per cent per annum and US business productivity at 1.6 per cent per annum, 0.1ppt above the pre-COVID cycle.

Third, policy changes have added to costs in Australia, with the minimum wage up 18.6 per cent on the past three years, and labour market re-regulation measures such as same work, same pay, the right to disconnect, the regulation of the gig economy and the abolition of the building industry watchdog.

Fourth, Australia has just embarked on a major fiscal stimulus, with tax cuts and cost-of-living subsidies of ~1.5 per cent of GDP. As such, we see the RBA as in a more difficult spot than the US Fed. Indeed, whilst the bank is “not ruling anything in or out”, it has only analysed the cases to lift rates or leave them unchanged.

Without an easing labour market and easing domestic services pressures, it seems difficult to envisage an aggressive Fed-like easing cycle.

The RBA appears stuck, given sticky domestic inflation and fiscal stimulus, but with optimistic markets, we again see room for disappointment. As such, we are cautious on both the US and Australian equity markets.

TAURUS (APR 20 - MAY 20)

GEMINI (MAY 21 - JUNE 20)

CANCER (JUNE 21 - JULY 22)

Expect a topsy-turvy start to the week as Uranus opposes Venus.

Strive to manage disruptions, handle surprises and patch up problems in a patient fashion.

You’re very focused on work projects but don’t put all your eggs in the one basket.

This week the full moon focus is on friendships. How to nurture them and how to let them go if you have outgrown each other.

Mutual interests are essential to long-term platonic relationships.

It’s time to boldly be the glorious Gemini you were born to be.

On Monday a domestic matter gets a welcome boost from the sun/Jupiter trine. But your personal preferences could clash with a family member. Courtesy of the full moon, it’s a good week to increase your public profile or complete a project.

LEO (JULY 23 - AUG 22)

VIRGO (AUG 23 - SEP 22)

LIBRA (SEP 23 - OCT 22)

SCORPIO (OCT 23 - NOV 21)

The sparks are set to fly as the sun/Mars square and the fiery full moon amp up your feisty, temperamental side. Expect some annoying frustrations and unexpected disruptions, especially involving a family matter or a work project.

You’ll feel more confident this week as the sun/Jupiter trine boosts a sense of wellbeing and security, especially at work. But resist the urge to judge or criticise others. Remember – you don’t have all the facts at hand, and appearances can be deceptive.

Unpredictable Uranus is disrupting relationships and/or finances. So tread gingerly with a sulky partner, an unreliable lover, a grumpy housemate, a frustrated family member or a cranky client. You’ll find the more diplomatic you are, the less stressful the week will be.

You’re keen to power ahead with a romantic relationship, a business partnership or a joint venture.

But expect some disruptions as unpredictable Uranus upsets the applecart. Don’t stress, Scorpio.

Review your approach and reassess your plans.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV 22 - DEC 21)

CAPRICORN (DEC 22 - JAN 19)

AQUARIUS (JAN 20 - FEB 18)

PISCES (FEB 19 - MAR 20)

Jupiter (your power planet) trines the sun on Monday, which is particularly good for romance, friendships, joint ventures, writing, teaching, travel, publishing and public relations. Throw in a fiery full moon on Thursday and you’re set for an action-packed week.

The sun and Jupiter activate your career zone which boosts ambition and good luck. But don’t focus on work at the expense of your home and family life. The full moon highlights the importance of getting the balance right between things professional and domestic.

The fiery full moon ignites your spontaneous and adventurous Aquarius dare-devil side. But slow down (and calm down) otherwise you’ll put your foot in your mouth and come a cropper. With the sun shining in Libra, try to find more balance in your relationships.

The Venus/Neptune trine on Tuesday and Wednesday boosts compassion, sensitivity, creativity and spirituality. Then Thursday’s fiery full moon activates your money zones, as you start to see your current financial situation in a revealing new light.

diced onion • 50ml white wine • 400-500ml seafood stock • 80g parmesan cheese • 40-60g butter • Herbs (eg. parsley or dill) • 50m olive oil

1. Sauté the aromatics: Start by sautéing finely chopped onion and garlic in olive oil over medium heat until soft and fragrant.

2. Cook the chorizo: Add diced chorizo to the pan, allowing it to render its fat and infuse the oil with its smoky, spicy flavours. Cook until slightly crispy.

3. Toast the rice: Stir in the rice, coating each grain with the flavoured oil and allowing it to toast lightly for a few minutes.

4. Deglaze with white wine: Pour in the white wine to deglaze the pan, stirring until the wine is mostly absorbed by the rice 5. Slowly add seafood stock: Begin adding warm seafood stock, one ladleful at a time, stirring continuously. Allow the rice to absorb the stock before adding more.

Repeat this process until the rice is cooked al dente and creamy, about 18-20 minutes.

6. Prepare the seafood: While the risotto is cooking, sear the prawns and scallops in a separate hot pan with olive oil, cooking each side for a minute or two until golden brown. Remove and set aside.

For the salmon, heat olive oil in the same pan, place the fillet skinside down and cook until the skin is crispy and the salmon is cooked through.

7. Finish the risotto: Stir in a knob of butter and freshly grated parmesan cheese into the risotto for a creamy finish. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.

8. Combine and serve: Gently fold in the seared prawns, scallops and chorizo pieces into the risotto. Serve the risotto in bowls, topping each with a piece of crispy skin salmon and garnishing with fresh herbs.

A SPECTACLE OF SOUND AND SPLENDOUR FOR THE YOUNG AT HEART

E

very August, the cobbled streets of Edinburgh come alive with the thunderous beats of drums, the haunting skirl of bagpipes and the exhilarating display of precision from military bands around the world.

The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo is more than just a performance – it’s a grand celebration of music, culture and camaraderie set against the stunning backdrop of Edinburgh Castle.

Whether you’re a seasoned Tattoogoer or a curious first-timer, this annual event promises a unique blend of nostalgia, awe and sheer joy that will

captivate your senses and leave you yearning for more.

First held in 1950, the Tattoo has become an iconic fixture of the Scottish capital’s summer, drawing over 220,000 spectators each year.

The magic begins at dusk as the majestic Edinburgh Castle is illuminated, casting its ancient shadows over the esplanade. The sound of the lone piper echoes through the air, sending chills down your spine and transporting you to a time when the Highlands were filled with clans and the roar of battle.

The Tattoo’s tradition is a tribute to the

INDIA TAJ, TEMPLES AND TIGERS 17 DAYS - 11TH - 26 OCTOBER 2025 FROM $9,695*

rich military history of Scotland, while its modern performances showcase the best of contemporary military and cultural pageantry from across the globe.

For many in the over-55 crowd, the Tattoo is an opportunity to relive cherished memories and reconnect with a sense of pride and heritage. There’s something deeply stirring about seeing military bands and performers marching in perfect formation, dressed in their colourful regalia.

The rhythmic cadence of the drum majors, the sparkling uniforms and the soaring melodies from the massed pipes

and drums evoke a sense of unity and respect for the values of honour and discipline. It’s a trip down memory lane for some, bringing back the glory days of military service or perhaps childhood memories of attending local parades and community gatherings.

But don’t be mistaken – the Tattoo isn’t just for the nostalgia seekers. It’s also a vibrant and dynamic spectacle that delights all the senses.

The show is constantly evolving, incorporating elements of dance, theatre and even pyrotechnics. Expect to see cultural groups from countries as diverse as New Zealand, the United States, India and Japan showcasing their unique musical and martial traditions.

Each performance is choreographed to perfection, with lights, music and movement all synchronised to create a visual feast. And the grand finale, featuring a massed band playing Auld Lang Syne is guaranteed to bring the audience to its feet in a rousing display of unity and celebration.

With Imagine Holidays, the best of the best is at your fingertips. Enjoy once-in-alifetime adventures in some of the world’s most spectacular places, offering exceptional value that surpasses your expectations.

It took me a while to get to the point where I was ready to travel to India. It was always a daunting destination with stories of confronting poverty and overpopulation.

But this year, I felt ready. I chose to travel on a group tour simply to navigate the vastness of the country and the diversity of the culture and language.

My tour initially took me through the streets of Old Delhi. Weaving through the narrow alleyways of the Spice Market literally took my breath away. Next it was on to the Gurdwara Sis Ganj Sahib, the Sikh Temple of Delhi, where I saw how everyone, regardless of religion, was fed by the devotees of the temple. I made chapatis with the volunteers and then sat crosslegged with the lunch crowd and enjoyed my first real vegetarian curry. It was an emotional experience to see just how kind and generous the community was.

The Taj Mahal was not the main reason I chose to travel to India, so my visit to Agra caught me by surprise. Arriving just before dusk, I learned about the history of this beautiful monument. I could not believe how enthralling it looked in the pink hue of sunset. I took a million photos that day.

My fascination with Hinduism and the importance of the mighty Ganges were satisfied by visiting the heaving, colourful and crowded city of Varanasi.

The evening ceremony, or Aarti, was mesmerising as I watched the orange-clad priests chant and offer fire to the Maa Ganga, mother goddess of the Ganges River.

I am glad I overcame my hesitation because my trip to India was one of my best. What made it so great were the people, always ready with a smile and a typical shake of their heads. I decided one trip there would not be enough.

If you would like to join me to experience this beautiful country, enquire about the Hosted Holidays Taj, Temples and Tigers tour departing in October 2025.

Mr Wilson says the selection process is rigorous and competitive, requiring each entrant to compile a comprehensive amount of information to ensure they meet all requirements.

“Over six months, each entry is evaluated by a panel of industry experts against specific guidelines and criteria,” Mr Wilson adds.

“Only those projects that stand out are promoted as finalists, with winners revealed during the highly anticipated Housing Awards Will Wilson ceremony.”

This year, the Sunshine Coast/Wide Bay Awards will feature a diverse range of categories, including Custom Built Homes, Renovations and Additions, Display Homes and Specialised Housing.

From these, one outstanding project will be honoured with the coveted Home of the Year title.

“Additionally, in our close-knit community, we have the opportunity to recognise a fan favourite through the People’s Choice Awards,” Mr Wilson says.

“Thousands cast their votes throughout August, and we eagerly await the announcement of this year’s winner.”

NOW THAT YOU HAVE FUNDING, HOW ARE YOU ARE GOING TO GET TO YOUR APPOINTMENTS?

2025 ENROLMENTS NOW OPEN FOR STEPS PATHWAYS COLLEGE

S

TEPS Pathways College is the first and only college of its kind in the southern hemisphere – and it’s now accepting enrolments for 2025.

With Day College and boarding programs for young adults living with a disability or autism, the Caloundra-based STEPS Pathways College is designed to give students the opportunity to develop the skills they need to live a life of independence.

Executive principal Stephanie Patey says that her team’s priority is creating and maintaining a safe and supportive learning environment for every student.

“This is a truly life-changing program, and I’ve seen countless students graduate with the confidence and knowledge they need to achieve their goals and live independent and fulfilling lives,” Ms Patey says.

“Of course, this is an entirely new experience for our students and their families. We make this learning journey as easy as possible for everyone, so students feel safe and secure, and their families feel confident that we’re providing the best possible education and support.”

All students learn independent living skills, from

budgeting and meal planning to completing chores and managing relationships.

Boarding students are able to apply these skills in a unit of their own, where they live with a fellow student and have 24/7 assistance available from experienced and compassionate support trainers.

“All of our students who have graduated from STEPS Pathways College are now successfully living independent lives and taking active roles in their community, including finding paid employment or volunteer work and their own accommodation,” Ms Patey says.

“We partner with our students, their families and allied support teams every step of the way to make the transition to college life as seamless as possible, from navigating funding arrangements to working alongside existing support teams, including allied health professionals,” she says.

Interested in learning more about STEPS Pathways College? Simply call 1800 312 742 or visit stepspathways. com.au to book a private tour, have your questions answered and apply.

How to get to programs, appointments and recreational activities is often the last consideration when doing the planning for National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) funding.

Transport is easy with the support of tailored NDISregistered service Carers that Drive. The name says it all.

When Bina and Stephan received NDIS funding approval for their son George, they needed to get him to and from all his planned activities.

George is an intelligent young man with a love of music, friends, work and his family.

He also has type 1 diabetes, anxiety and autism.

With these interests now funded, George needed to be taken to and from work three days a week, to choir singing and indoor cricket activities.

Bina and Stephan have a catering business and two younger children.

Juggling their family lives became a challenge until they discovered this service. One of the workdays, George shares the ride with another person who lives nearby and goes to the same workspace.

The tailored service helps people to be more independent in the community in their car or a Carers that Drive vehicle. For one-off occasions or regular bookings, with or without NDIS, Carers that Drive can help clients get there.

Call Carers that Drive to discuss your needs on 0403 696 690.

Now accepting enrolments for 2025/26 Day and Boarding Programs available.

STEPS Pathways College provides students with a disability and autism with a pathway towards independence and the opportunity to achieve their goals.

NDIS FEATURE

NDIS FUNDING: WHAT’S IN AND WHAT’S OUT? People living with a disability now know exactly what supports they can and can’t claim on the government’s support funding scheme.

For the first time, the federal government last week released a list of resources National Disability Insurance

Scheme (NDIS) participants can spend their money on.

The list came into effect last Thursday, though there will be a one-year transition period, so participants who have planned to access supports that are no longer on the list will be able to keep those until the expiry of their plan.

This update will help return the scheme to its original purpose and ensure it isn’t paying for supports that should be covered by Australia’s other care systems or shouldn’t be covered at all, NDIS Minister Bill Shorten says.

“This scheme is going to be run properly, transparently and in the best interest of participants, not some service providers who are selling therapies, which we cannot find much in the way of a scientific or evidence basis,” he says.

“They’re selling snake oil. They’re selling stuff which, frankly, doesn’t work.

“What this does is it gives all Australians confidence that the cowboys and fly-by-nighters can’t sell their nonsense and be subsidised to do so.”

The NDIS will continue to cover supports such as assistance animals, allied health appointments, help for travel and daily tasks and a host of other resources.

But costs such as rent, holidays and

alternative practices, including tarot card reading, shamanic healing and hypnotherapy can no longer be claimed.

Fertility treatments and specific wellness and coaching supports, such as sports supplements and life coaches, have also been ruled out.

If people continue to claim items that are not NDIS supports despite being provided with information and advice, remedial action will be taken.

The government will also provide a substitution list so participants can request a replacement support in cases where a standard household item

might be able to provide them with better outcomes.

“There’ll be a fair bit of common sense,” Mr Shorten says.

The new lists are the result of a month-long public consultation, which received more than 7000 responses from the public, organisations and peak disability bodies.

Though they are believed to help with the NDIS’s ballooning costs, the government hasn’t banked any savings from the lists.

TASTEFUL AND TRENDING: WHEN BLACK AND ORANGE COLLIDE

home

style

Love it or loathe it, it seems as though Halloween is here to stay. In recent years, many Australians have embraced the celebration with themed home décor becoming more detailed. Renowned property stylist and founder of Vault Interiors, Justine Wilson, has unveiled her top Halloween styling trends and tips tailored specifically for Australian homes.

AUSTRALIAN INFLUENCE Embrace the Australian environment by incorporating native plants like eucalyptus or banksia into your Halloween décor.

Combine these with traditional elements, such as pumpkins and skulls for a unique, locally inspired look.

Tip: We love the Banksia flower stem (pictured) from Pillow Talk.

PUMPKIN CHIC Pumpkins are a Halloween staple, but this year, they’re getting a chic makeover. Think painted pumpkins in metallic hues or matte black, arranged in stylish clusters on mantels or as table centrepieces.

THE PALETTE • Sunburnt, golden and autumnal oranges • Black and white • Deep violet.

These shades can be used as an accent colour in your home any time of the year. Start small – pops of purple, orange or gold can be incorporated through soft furnishings like cushions or a rug, or via a beautiful piece of artwork.

DID YOU KNOW? In home interiors, colour greatly influences the atmosphere and mood of a space. Black, known for its sophistication and depth, adds a sense of drama and timeless elegance. It can create a striking contrast or a bold, sleek design when used thoughtfully in a room. This is why the hue is now considered an all-year look in interior design.

ECO-FRIENDLY FRIGHTS Sustainability is key in 2024. Opt for eco-friendly decorations made from natural or recycled materials. Try biodegradable faux cobwebs, reusable cloth banners and vintage or upcycled items to reduce your Halloween footprint. Green is the new orange!

RENT CAPS RULED OUT AHEAD OF ELECTION Investors are welcoming news that the government’s proposed rent controls are off the table. WORDS: Ingrid Nelson with REIQ.

T

he Real Estate Institute of Queensland (REIQ) is welcoming the unequivocal declaration in last night’s Great Debate by both the Premier and Leader of the Opposition that rent caps will not be introduced in Queensland – effectively ruling them out post-election.

With both sides of politics stating their position on this important issue, it gives confidence that irrespective of the election result, rent caps will not be introduced in the next term of the new government.

REIQ CEO Antonia Mercorella says with rent caps officially off the table, the government can focus on pulling the right levers to increase housing supply.

“This confirmation will help restore confidence to existing investors and provides appealing certainty to future investors,” Ms Mercorella says.

“While we acknowledge that rents have materially risen in Queensland since 2020 and are acutely aware of the pressure this has placed on the rental community, it does not change the fact that rent caps are not the answer. They are not the panacea many argue them to be, and evidence from around the world where rent caps have

2 GE LING A ST SEL AN

been, or still are, in place demonstrates the potential negative consequences of such market intervention. History tells us the best way to stabilise and keep rents in check is to maintain a healthy vacancy rate by ensuring there is adequate housing supply.”

Director of Ray White Maroochydore Dan Sowden says regardless of the decision to scrap rental caps, investors remain sceptical. “No one has been specific as to what rental caps actually mean,” he says.

“The government has already put restrictions on landlords reviewing their rates, so they can’t increase them any more than once in a 12-month period.”

Mr Sowden says there are other factors at play, including changes to legislation that make it difficult for investors.

As of last month, minimum housing standards now apply to all residential tenancies in Queensland, which Mr Sowden says is heavily weighted in favour of the tenant. “In principle, it’s to ensure all Queenslanders are renting properties that are of a good standard, which is great, but there are other elements, such as tedious lease notice period changes and landlord rights, being removed. Simply, the legislation keeps telling the owners how

Dan Sowden they are to manage their property,” he says.

“The latest legislation also means if a tenant breaks the lease, the tenant has less fiscal responsibility, which means again the burden of this cost is passed back to the investor. Previously, if the tenant was to break a lease, they were responsible for the advertising costs and letting costs.”

Mr Sowden says the changes mean the industry is becoming increasingly complex for investors to navigate, driving some to diversify their investments from real estate to other areas. “All that does is reduce rental supply and that makes it harder for people

in the long run to find rentals,” he says.

Increased cost of living pressures and higher interest rates are other factors affecting the investment sector.

“A few investors who have held their properties over the past few years have enjoyed a good return, and they have been reinvesting back into their properties,” Mr Sowden says. “However, the first thing to change when investors come under pressure with higher interest rates is they simply stop doing maintenance to save on costs. That then causes an issue with the condition of the properties.”

Mr Sowden says 75 to 80 per cent of all properties are bought by owner-occupiers, with investors needing to see a return to value. “Investors are looking for value in the next 12 months, with a softening of prices and talk of interest rates dropping.”

Despite the challenges, he says there are still plenty of reasons for investors to buy on the Sunshine Coast.

“We are still relatively affordable compared to capital cities. The new world we are operating in means we can live and work in a lifestyle capital rather than a city capital. That brings higher incomes to the Coast, which is good for investment.”

SURF REPORT with MWP’s man in the water

Konnichiwa from Tokyo!

Get your melon around this. Australia has a population of 26 million, while Tokyo alone has 37 million. Yet I feel safer walking around at night here than any city in Australia. And it seems very clean too, given how many people live here. I wonder if they could teach us something?

No surf, so nothing to report on that front and now is the worst time.

Come to Japan.
