Today I was privileged to attend an in-house lunch at EY Sydney hosted by NORA to explore bilateral opportunities between Australia and South Africa. Coffee was served on a tray with a choice of black or white in a glass- an easy way for guests to choose without interrupting conversations.
A musical couple in Sydney have turned their garage into a musical studio to encourage local musicians. They've soundproofed the garage with mattresses and invite friends to watch while they record the performances. Tonight the first act at Red Dog Studio was 'Dream Good', a Sydney-based band who are due to release their debut album soon. It's been described as "intricate, non-linear evocations of what beauty is". https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpunjLEtzbmjVg28h5kpvFg
Call & Check is a new service that has been developed by Jersey Post. It offers a regular visit if you would benefit from extra help and support. The service is currently being run as a pilot with no charge. It provides a regular visit as agreed. Postal staff will have brief conversation with you to ascertain how you are and if you need anything. Working with your designated contacts, they are then able to relay important messages or requests back to the relevant authority for action. Australia Post is also trialling this service. http://www.jerseypost.com/community/callandcheck/
