Hi Tipsters!
Congratulations to Carolyn & Jamie from TTarampa Assistwho received our very first Perfect Round this week which earns a full BONUS POINT!
Then 5 people got 7/8 but the main game 8 of you got wrong was State of Origin, including 2 pollies, AAndrew Powell MPand CCouncillor Tony Latter who backed NSW – where’s your faith in the Queenslanders?!
That didn’t stop Andrew Powell MP from jumping into the lead – can someone Pip that Pollie next round?
We are past the origin period now, which means all teams can focus on the rest of the season with 8 rounds left until finals.
The Sharks, Bulldogs and Warriors found some winning form, the Broncos are on a roll, the Storm look strong, and the Panthers are making an incredible comeback to climb up the ladder.
And don’t forget to do your tips for this weekend before the Dolphins vs Cowboys game on Thursday night to kick off Round 20

"This is my friend Harold.
Not the guy in the man lift—but the man behind him, sitting quietly in his wheelchair on the sidewalk. ❤️

Harold lives in the nursing home just across the street from our job site.
Since day one, he’s been there.
Every morning at 7 a.m., like clockwork.
He takes lunch when we do.
And he doesn’t leave until I shut down the crane and head home.

At first, I thought,
“He’s just an old man enjoying the fresh air. Curious, maybe. Just passing time.”
But something about his consistency got me curious too.

So one day, I walked over and introduced myself.

That first conversation lasted over two and a half hours.
And it changed me.

Harold, it turns out, is nearing the end of his life.
He’s battling heart failure and a degenerative disease that’s been eating away at his health for years.
But before all that, Harold spent over 50 years doing exactly what I do now—operating cranes.

He told me he never imagined he’d get to see one up close again—let alone watch one in action, every day.
It’s not just a job to him. It’s his life. His pride. His story.

He has family. Two daughters. A son.
They haven’t visited in the seven years he’s been in that nursing home.

So I made Harold a deal. 💛

He jokingly asked if I’d put him on payroll.
I told him I couldn’t swing that… but here’s what I could do:

👉 Every morning, I bring him his favorite—a black coffee.
👉 Twice a week, I grab him lunch from anywhere he wants.
👉 And at the end of each day, I sit with him so he can critique my crane work and give me pointers.

Because no matter how good you think you are, there’s always more to learn.

And Harold?
He didn’t hesitate before saying,
“ABSOLUTELY!”

Now he’s not just watching.
He’s part of the crew.
He’s teaching again. Smiling again.
Living with purpose in his final days.

And I guess I’m sharing this to say:

👉 Don’t overlook the quiet people in the background.
👉 Don’t assume someone’s just “passing time.”
👉 Walk over. Say hello.
You never know what kind of impact you might make—or what kind of soul you’ll meet.

I’m so thankful I took that step.
And when the day comes that God calls Harold home,
I’ll find peace in knowing he spent his final chapter surrounded by something he loved.
And by someone who cared enough to see him.

Be that someone. Make someone feel seen.
It might just be the most important thing you do today."

With Mother's Day only a couple of days away, are you looking for a simple recipe for homemade pancakes? Than look no further 🙌
Two of our wonderful taste testers gave these pancakes the seal of approval & they can be modified to be puree friendly too! 🥳

Ingredients:
⭐ 1 cup Self Raising Flour
⭐ 2 tbsp Castor Sugar
⭐ 1 cup Milk (any variety)
⭐ 1 Egg
⭐ 1/2 tsp Vanilla Essence

Method:
▪️ Mix milk, egg and vanilla in a jug until well combined
▪️ Sift SR flour and castor sugar into a bowl and make a well in the centre
▪️ Add wet ingredients to the bowl and mix until just combined (some little lumps are okay, the key is to not over mix)
▪️ Set aside the mixture and heat a fry pan on medium heat. Add either a little butter and melt or spray with cooking oil to prevent sticking
▪️ Add 1/4 cup of mixture to the pan and cook until the bubbles that start appearing on top begin to burst
▪️ Flip the pancake over and cook for 1 - 2 minutes until desired colour
▪️ Serve warm with whipped cream and strawberry jam or cold with butter and cinnamon sugar

To puree:
▪️ Add 2 - 3 cooled pancakes to a blender with either some milk or cream (adding small amounts at a time) and a teaspoon of strawberry jam
▪️ Blend until required consistency, serving with additional jam and whipped cream for presentation

What an experience to delve into the rich history of the Royal Australia Air Force. Our Customer's enjoyed a guided tour at the RAAF Base Amberley Aviation Heritage Centre and relished in the opportunity to learn more about Australia's military aviation past.
