Good morning, folks, and happy Thursday! Oh boy, do we have some exciting stuff lined up for you today? But first, how's everyone doing? Good, I (Vella) hope! If not, remember to take things one step at a time, and don't forget to breathe. Now, let’s reveal the answer to yesterday’s riddle:
When you need me, you throw me away. When you don’t need me, you bring me back. What am I?
And the answer is an anchor! We also accepted fishing line, tissue and lifebuoy! If you got it correct, stick around; your shout-out awaits at the end of the newsletter. Next up, it's time for a Fascinating Fact! Did you know that a quarter of your bones are located in your feet? The human foot is comprised of 26 bones, 33 joints, and over a hundred muscles, tendons,
and ligaments. The foot is more complex than we often realise. So give your trusty feet some gratitude today!
So, what's happening across Australia and around the world today?

Who remembers the iconic Nesquik? These cans, containing chocolaty goodness, were a staple in many households. Trying to crack them open with spoons or knives was an everyday struggle! Back in the 1950s, it was Nestle’ Quik, or as it was fondly called, Nestle’s. Fast forward to '99, and it became Nesquik, offering various flavours. Did you take large spoonfuls of Nesquik and hope not to get
caught? Share your fond memories here. Feel free to post on
our Nostalgia/Yesterday's Australia forum too, if you’d like to reminisce.
