Happy Saturday morning, members! How are we all doing today? I (Vella) hope you're starting your day with a smile. Have you got anything exciting lined up for the weekend? Regardless of what you're up to, let's not forget to take a moment to enjoy the simple things—perhaps a nice cup of tea on the veranda or a cheeky biscuit while you read this newsletter. 😉 Now, enough of the chit-chat! Let’s reveal the answer to yesterday’s riddle:

Everyone has me, and everyone needs me. When some people see me, they end up quite queasy. What am I?

And the answer is blood! Great work to everyone who got it correct! If you're one of them, scroll further down this newsletter for your well-deserved shout-out! Moving on to our 'What Would the Grandkids Say?' segment. Today’s term is ‘serving’. Kids today use this term to describe someone who's looking particularly good. For example, if your grandkids look stylish in their new shoes, you can say, ‘You’re serving in those shoes!’

So, what’s happening across Australia and the world today?
