Reaching 300,000 of Australia's Wise and Wonderful Every Day

Saturday Edition | AM

Good morning

Members, it's Saturday, and I (Sethia) have a strong feeling that we’re set for a beautiful weekend ahead. How are you feeling? Bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, I hope! I'm especially cheery this morning, likely due to the extra cup of tea I've had. Before I get too chatty, let’s reveal the answer to yesterday’s riddle, shall we?

A hole in a pole. Though I fill a hole in white, I'm used more by the day and less by the night. What am I?

And the answer is… an eye! Did you get it correct? If so, expect a shout-out below! Now onto today’s ‘What Would The Grandkids Say?’ segment! Today’s term is ‘mid’, which means average or low quality. For example: ‘Goodness, the chicken I ordered is mid!’
