There are more than 50,000 mining legacies in Australia, more if we add those in ‘care and maintenance” to the list of abandoned, or orphan mines. Despite recent regulatory reforms, the various impacts of these sites continue to endure, raising the prospect of a lasting “rehabilitation debt” for future generations.

In 1829, free settlers from Great Britain and Ireland arrived at the Swan River Colony, bringing their music with them. What role did this music play in establishing a colony at the far reaches of the British Empire? Diaries from early pioneers suggest that, within the first ten years, some music began to adopt a distinctly Western Australian focus - hinting at a shift as colonists started looking away from Britain and towards a future in a new colony.

Sixty something years ago, Sandra set sail for England seeking fame and fortune. London was at the centre of all that was exciting and getting a job at the BBC through sheer accident and a lot of nerve, she met and interviewed many of the big names, including Muhammad Ali, Dames Maggie Smith and Joan Collins, Mick Jagger, Michael Caine, Sean Connery and Michael Jackson. She hopped into bed with John Lennon and Yoko Ono, got to know Dolly Parton and Lord Louis Mountbatten. Dame Barbara Cartland became a friend. Now back home in Perth and, in what she calls ACT III of her life, she’s written a book about it.
