Canberra Today 9°/11° | Sunday, May 5, 2024 | Digital Edition | Crossword & Sudoku

WE’RE not sure it’s terribly relaxing sitting cross-legged on London Circuit median strip on a freezing winter’s morning, but PETRINA STAMENKOVIC bravely took the snapper’s challenge to illustrate the benefits of Lifeline’s impending Stress Down Day on this week’s cover. Less relaxed, singer JOHN SCHUMANN takes hilarious umbrage at getting a parking fine in Dickson and DON AITKIN, inspired by the joy of singing children, ponders a flaw in the education system. All this before we get to politics (ELERI HARRIS, MICHAEL MOORE, GREG CORNWELL) and arts (HELEN MUSA, DOUGAL MACDONALD, WENDY JOHNSON).
