Epitaph to a drover and the long Western drive
A Canberra based piece recalls a 2700 mile sheep drive from Ashford NSW to Albany WA driven by a single drover in a land of drought. The tale contrasts with Durack cattle treks and notes losses from hail and disease while praising ordinary carriers and the shift from drovers to trains and trucks.

Once Mighty German Mill Finds New Life At ANU
The Australian National University repurposed a 1940s German milling device, formerly a war heavy machine, into a high precision homopolar generator support tool in the Research School of Physical Sciences. Acquired from Germany for £16,000, the fern lathe now aids large scale components and plasma physics studies while many recall its wartime origins and postwar disassembly.

Serbian Gallipoli memorials stir dialogue across communities
In Canberra and Sydney Serbian Christians plan commemorations for Gallipoli, while questions linger over church splits and unity. Yugoslav officials reference Kosovo Day traditions and the enduring Serb memory, as diaspora voices ask if future generations will sing of Gallipolia as Serbs still sing of Kosovo.
