Police can confirm one person has died following a crash on the South-Western Motorway this morning.

Sadly, the sole occupant of this vehicle died at the scene.

Earlier closures of northbound lanes have now lifted, and Police advise motorists to continue to expect delays as earlier backlogs clear.
We appreciate motorists' understanding this morning while emergency services carried out their work.

✨ Guava Jelly ✨

As you know, I love experimenting with new ways to repurpose the beautiful fresh produce that’s generously donated to us — and this time, I had bags of fragrant guavas to play with!

After a wash, I simmered them gently with water, sugar, lemon juice, and orange juice. I’d never cooked with guavas before, and I was blown away by the rich, floral aroma that filled the kitchen.

The flavour was bold — really bold! So I decided to make a jelly for cheese platters. I first tried it with a mild cheese, but the jelly totally overpowered it. I was surprised by the flavour punch, so next up: blue cheese! 🧀 If that doesn’t work, I might be stumped.

If you have any ideas or favourite guava pairings, I’d love to hear them! 💬

Thinking about retirement? Maybe you’re already retired, you’re close to it, or you’re just dreaming of it in the distant future… Check out Stuff’s continuing partnership with Metlifecare, The Good Life.

This time, we’ve looked at the nutrient we should be focusing on as we age (and no, it’s not the carbs v fat debate!) plus some luxury rail travel - with gourmet food.

We also feature a fabulous 80s band, by which we mean the youngest member is 80!
