And The Comments Just Keep On Coming!

With several articles hitting the press over the last couple of days people have been adding comments to the online Newspaper stories.

Here are one or two of the more interesting comments:

"Planning for the Sunshine Coast is a very economic and emotional issue and may also be the reason for the lack of decision making. I am not convinced who is right and who is wrong however I think one is rampant with arrogance whilst the other is paralysed by analysis, you decide which is which."

"We the people are squeezed by the kamikaze environmental lobby in one direction; state government, which is owned by developers, from another; and the Federal Government, which dances to the tune of global corporations, and even worse, the same international bankers who finance the World Bank, the IMF and the BIS."

"We all know that the main reason most people move to coasts is to regularly go to the beach. That is difficult already because of lack of parking so imagine what it is going to be like for us with another 45,000 people wanting to do the same!
If all these sections of land are going to be developed, part of development costs MUST go towards building multi story or underground carparking at every named beach on the coast."

"Mum And Dad" Back To See The Offspring!

This photo was taken late last week and shows the parent black swans back at Lake Bellvista again. They have been 'away' for a couple of weeks now.

Click on the photo for a larger view, then click "Back" to return to this page.

No one is sure just why they are back. Other residents expressed surprise when they left as usually they would stay until the young one can fly. It looks like still some growing has to occur before the young one will be taking to the air.
