The sad drowning of a 12 yo girl at just north of Scarborough Beach on Christmas Eve is a reminder not to swim near the no-swim signs. Just because u c surfers in front of these signs, doesn't mean it's safe for swimming. It's NOT.
SWIM BETWEEN THE YELLOW AND RED FLAGS.

A 12-year-old girl is in a critical condition after a surfer pulled her unresponsive from the water at Trigg Beach on Tuesday.

FREE TO AIR DIGITAL TV TRANSMISSION

If your TV antenna is pointing east to the transmission towers on the Perth Hills, it's pointing in the wrong direction.

Where is the local digital TV transmitter u might ask?

If u want better TV reception, point your TV antenna to the transmitter on Observation City. If u don't want to risk falling off your roof, phone Dereck 0405 258 846, the local TV antenna specialist, to carefully walk on your roof, point your antenna in the right direction and add a bit of anti-corrosion to help protect the bolts and wires from salt-laden ocean air.

$380 is the price to replace your old TV aerial with a new DIGITAL TV antenna. That includes tuning your TV for more free to air digital TV channels. The improved signal capture improves the picture quality that your 4K or 8K TV deserves.

While Derek is there, you might want to get 10 times faster data to your computer by having your Cat 5 cable replaced with Cat 6 cable. It's not only faster but more secure.

Best when Nature Meets Manmade in Australia

Rainy spring scenes have kept Perth’s award-winning beaches quiet, but as sun-soaked summer days approach, the age-old debate over the city’s best stretch of sand is heating up.

HOTEL ACCOMMODATION BOOKINGS
The total revenue for the online travel agency (OTA) market was an estimated $612.95 billion in 2024
I still believe that investing in your own hotel website marketing is a better value than paying 28% commission to OTAs but if your hotel uses OTAs to fill rooms during the low Season, consider a one-stop shop OTA channel manager so that your hotel marketing manager doesn't have to spend time dealing with multiple OTA channels.
Want to know more? Fill out my form at https://partnerhub.siteminder.com/aspx/partnerreferral?refer=1tW8TXad87j55nlmxy1B3Y3mv6Cbuoan5WDq3CS1W8E1 to have someone contact you to explain how multi-channel OTA management using one dashboard works or if u have a small property, how Little Hotelier's booking engine can help u.
If you r booking in Scarborough, BOOK DIRECTLY through the hotel/accommodation website.
1. Better deal.
2. They'll love u 4 it.
3. You'll know them better
4. They'll know u better
5. Your hotel/accommodation provider would save about 28% commission, which means better local businesses supporting local employment and the local community.
