Just
where has the time gone – we are almost half way through the year,
winter is almost upon us and I just realised that it is now 2 years
since we transitioned across to our electronic version of the
newsletter, supported by a limited print run…
And
speaking of a change is seasons, is it now the perfect time to think
about winter fire safety matters – smoke alarms, heating appliances
& kitchen fire safety.
Our
next meeting is specifically aimed at Kitchen fire safety. Winter may
be the time to cook hearty meals but hot oil in pots and pans is the
cause of many fires originating in the kitchen. Keep a watchful eye
on your cooking and come & hear Geoff’s insights on what we
should be doing to be savvy about fire safety in the heart of the
home.
There
is an article below about a negligent driving fine that is seemingly
issued by the Australian Federal Police. It is a scam. I googled this
scam, it would seem that this scam has been detected far and wide –
Canberra & Townsville to name a couple of targeted locations. Now
the Gold Coast. Be aware and don’t be unwittingly caught!
Until
the next newsletter, stay safe!
