The Arctic blast from NSW caused a few issues with us tropical folks here in Queensland. “apparently, there was a game last night……” Interestingly, apart from seeing these two delirious Blues supporters, no other Blue supporters could be found.

It was a cracker of a day hitting the pavement and chatting with locals, (bit cool in the wind) After catching up with residents it's time for a community Roadside at Reserve Road Upper Coomera next to the community centre.

First up this morning was the Community Safety and Legal Affairs committee briefing at Parliament. Today, we asked the department questions about the Respect at Work and Other Matters Amendment Bill. Followed by some special guests at the Parliament, year six students from Helensvale State School visiting the Parliament. The students were very knowledgeable about the workings of the Westminst system of government. Time for a community roadside at Studio before a P&C meeting tonight.
