Mark from Captain Carver Chainsaw Art was busy yesterday morning in Kinglake West carving the tree next to the bushfire memorial. Mark said he will be finished in a couple of weeks. It's hot out there, maybe check out his work and drop him off a nice cold drink.

Our hearts are broken to announce that the incomparable Meat Loaf passed away tonight surrounded by his wife Deborah, daughters Pearl and Amanda and close friends.
His amazing career spanned 6 decades that saw him sell over 100 Million albums worldwide and star in over 65 movies, including “Fight Club”, “Focus”, “Rocky Horror Picture Show” and “Wayne’s World.”
“Bat Out of Hell” remains one of the top 10 selling albums of all time.
We know how much he meant to so many of you and we truly appreciate all of the love and support as we move through this time of grief in losing such an inspiring artist and beautiful man.
We thank you for your understanding of our need for privacy at this time.
From his heart to your souls…don’t ever stop rocking!
He was larger then life and a legend of his time 😢❤️
RIP Meatloaf
My heart is broken today to hear this sad news💔💔💔

Its not too bad just make sure you are stocked up on zinc and panadol. The zinc will stop you losing your smell and taste and if you have lost these up your intake to help get it back
Thank you for this.

Alexandra Newspapers that's how you do journalism. Verified details. Why can't you be incharge of the big papers? Thanks for all your hard work.

Great job guys. It takes a country newspaper to show how “real” journalism is done. No opinion, no agenda. Just level reporting.
