August 25th:
* The Stateline team wondered what it would be like for Vietnam veterans the week after all the commemorations.
For many of the men, after the fanfare dies down, they are left alone with memories that they can only share with each other.
One group meets every week in Queanbeyan for coffee, cake and friendship… and we were invited to join them.
* The proposed site for a new dragway in the Majura Valley has the local residents fearing that they will be driven out – almost literally. They also argue that the government should not spend $8m on the project. Why not? says Geoff Develin – good for the economy and plenty of money has been spent on bicycle trails and other “boutique” pursuits.
* No snow – but still the ACT is home to the fastest growing sled dog competition.
Plus – a new chief conductor for the Canberra Symphony Orchestra – and some fairies at the bottom of the Botanical Gardens.
TONIGHT AT 7.30. Repeated at Noon on Saturday.
