It’s been a busy month building up to May! Myself, with Luke Boissevain (specialising in video shooting & post production), have been working behind the scenes to bring you a new online version of What’s On! Unlike the previous online version, this one features videos throughout the pages too, so you can view a whole new level of community event coverage, exciting products & services from local businesses – plus heaps more! The possibilities are endless. I have been ecstatic about this, with mini videos featured throughout the online publication, it’s amplifying what What’s On is all about - capturing the Tablelands community spirit! This is a whole new area with lots to learn and grow from! I would love to hear your feedback on the new online issue.

Views expressed are not Changeable Weather in these mountain parts can sometimes catch you off guard, especially if your Immune System is compromised – A chill can lead to a full blown cold and getting wet and going in and out of air-conditioning can also allow the cold to enter. Chinese medicine recognizes this as “Invasion of Wind-Cold when the Defensive Qi is temporarily weaker than the force of the pathogen”. Because the pathogen is moving in from the outside there is a time frame of being able to disperse it from your body before it sets in. As soon as you feel it, or if you have been caught out you can use; MediHerb’s - Astragalus Complex which is a powerful Antibacterial, Adaptogen and Immunosupportive in high doses at short Owners & Therapists Laura & Jet intervals to quickly stimulate a powerful Immune response. You can also use Ganmao Zhike and Ganmao Qingre which is Chinese Herbal medicine that has been made into granules – it is mixed with boiling hot water and drank as hot as you can stand it at first signs of sickness – they are antivirals/antibacterial & they make you sweat thereby forcing out the pathogen. You can also ask about specific Liquid Herbal Tinctures that can be made instore to specifically target your symptoms and complaints. – Laura. necessarily those of What’s On + Where To Go or its advertisers.

The NBN network works on a fibre optics, (glass By now we all know the NBN is coming but some people still don’t realise that they will have to get it. Let’s start with “What is NBN” NBN stands for National Broadband Network but even that name isn’t really right for what it is, it is actually our new communication network. Communication is both phone and data so if you have a home or office cable) or fixed Wireless, (a digital wireless link between your building and a communication tower like Hallorans Hill in Atherton). The fibre is for town areas and the fixed wireless is for people beyond the town limits.
