Hey, government, reserve the corridor now please! Sapoty Brook Mullumbimby Neglected Two more tragic deaths on the Pacific Highway have giv- en me cause to think about the total lack of infrastruc- ture on the north coast. I do not understand why our roads are full of potholes; our main highway, the Pacific, is so dangerous and, in many parts, a two lane road; there are no trains; rarely a bicycle path to be seen; and residents in the north of the Byron Shire are always complaining about lack of facilities. What have our politicians and decision-makers been doing? The Anthonys were our representatives for many years. What was achieved in all that time? I remember Larry Anthony saying how dangerous riding on the Pa- cific Highway was; that was stating the obvious. I heard in question time that the How- ard government had spent a paltry billion dollars on the Pacific Highway in 12 years. I thought we had record surpluses for many of those years. At least the Labor gov- ernment has spent money on upgrading our major high- way. Similarly, most schools in the area have a school hall. I do not consider them a waste of money. As a drama teacher my first position was teaching drama outside in an undercover area. Imag- ine what that was like when it was cold, wet and windy. That school now has a won- derful facility. It now seems that when the Liberals win the next election we will still have a second rate internet service. Can someone from the Liberal Party give me an explanation?

GOOD TASTE ..p28 How did the Cousins come to be performing together? The Curly Cousins is the brainchild of Miss B (alias Laurel Cohn). In late 2008 Laurel had the vision to create an opportunity for young people in regional areas to experience live music with musicians playing real instruments (as opposed to singing to backing tapes), and to be exposed to sophisticated, fun, engaging music to inspire and delight – music that could be appreciated by young and old alike. She teamed up with talented musician Rochelle Wright (Sunshine), a friend with whom she had worked over the years in bands and in early childhood music, and experienced performer Mandy Morris (Coco) a fellow Playback Theatre member. Since their fi rst collaboration the band and the characters have grown organically. It’s as if the Curly Cousins were meant to be. What kind of show do you want to put on for the kids?
