Only into the second month of The 50 List and have already failed a task...
With the best of intentions to spend a day at the Ekka this year, my daughter on the same day needed help with taxi-ing, catering and holding a clipboard while she shot her Year 12 final film masterpiece.   No regrets for skipping the Ekka, as I was "mumager" for the day!

I've volunteered for the Ekka Strawberry Sundae stall in support of The Prince Charles Hospital Foundation. 
I'm now locked in and committed to go this year!

The Brisbane Ekka (Royal Queensland Show) is held annually in August.  Although I've lived in Brisbane for well over 30 years, I've only been once, and that was back in 1981.  Another visit is well overdue.
