Remember that wonderful elderly woman who lived in care but appeared in the Drum regularly as an advocate for the aged?

In case you are on both/either and would like to follow, her profile links are:

Julia #Baird is also partnering with Jeremy #Fernandez in a gret podcast series on #ABC called ‘Not Stupid’ which showcases latest news and off-beat items. More relaxed than The Drum (that was a good show) though. -
