BotW: Northbound
Welcome to Best of the Week, written in Evandale, Tasmania, after a series of northwards hops before one big jump home. The Launceston-Melbourne-Canberra-Sydney-Launceston route deserves a name.
Happy World Beard Day.
Today: Taking the free out of freedom of information.
It’s your last chance to sign up for a paid membership of Unmade and lock in all of the current benefits. Next month, we’re going to stop accepting new paying members of Unmade. Instead we’ll be offering membership of an expanded Mumbrella Pro as we bring the two brands closer together.

A very interesting story today. And yes, I agree that we need freedom of information.
Tim, do you think that EVERY person should be allowed to demand ANY INFORMATION. That would be likely to inundate the relevant Public Service workers. Doing that, there would be a strong expectation for it to be ‘at-no-cost’ which would significantly increase the PS headcount, increase Federal costs massive cost … which no-one would expect.
But I did get a chuckle in your first para … Grabbing a sandwich in the airport cafe, they were having some kind of smoothie emergency. I listened to a worker ask a colleague: “If a blender wasn’t working and you had to crush walnuts, how would you do it?”
Surely you could have advised that they crushed their own walnuts! (Only kidding.)
