yesterday evening the local community met down the beach to say goodbye and scatter ashes of a young girl who was murdered and found in the river that runs down the back of my place. the turn out happened to fill the beach, and the drone footage doesn't capture the crowds of people all dressed in white. it was incredible that a community should all respond to a social media campaign so effectively and with such conviction. it was moving and very emotional. we want women to be safe.

there was a strange moment when I heard a rumble that i thought could be an earthquake out at sea, it was very bass heavy and loud. as it turned out it was the local bikkie gang, revving their engines, in a weird sycnronistic ritual. both peter and i exchanged glances and we thought something was very perculiar.

one hour later while indulging in affrigattoes to excess peter receives a text from the mother of audrey the young girl saying the man who had murdered her daughter had been found dead in his cell.

strange but sometimes events complete themselves.
