Rob's show reels 'em in to the Sunshine Coast

The hour-long programs will be screened at 5.30pm tomorrow, January 30, and next Saturday, February 6, on WIN.

I THOUGHT there must have been a new editor of the Daily over the last month or so, which surprised me as Jenna Cairney has been doing a great job thus far, not only at the Daily but also out and about in the community and, thankfully, I was wrong. Maroochy SLSC has had a stranglehold on these pages, and again will be prominent this weekend with the fabulous Murphy Builders surf carnival Saturday and Sunday with plenty of action in the water and on the beach. I am referring to the Black..>> view originalMissing Arana Hills man not seen since January 21

YOU never forget your first time. Mine was so good I wish I hadn't experienced it so I could do it for the first time all over again. My first time in a Turkish bathhouse was unforgettable, and not just because I had stumbled across possibly the oldest bathhouse in Turkey by accident. Gedikpasa Bathhouse in Istanbul was built in 1475, and there I was just passing it on my way to the Grand Bazaar when the sign above the door announcing its remarkable age halted me. Built in 1475? I had..>> view originalARIA development stalled on sub-surface carpark plans
A MULTI-million dollar development on Mooloolaba Esplanade looks to have stalled for now. ARIA Property Group yesterday requested Sunshine Coast Council defer a decision on the proposed development on The Esplanade, following council's decision not to endorse a "volumetric road closure" of The Esplanade. The proposed closure, if endorsed, was subject to an infrastructure agreement between ARIA and the council, which would have seen a public carpark built underneath The Esplanade. At ..>> view originalSubbies will seek to scrap cash retention from builders
CASH retentions required by builders of sub-contractors to guarantee the quality of their work should be scrapped because they are an unnecessary burden and are open to abuse, the Subcontractors Alliance says. Builders require subbies to pay 5% of the contract price as a performance bond and a further 5% to cover defects and liabilities.
