Beaudesert Beenleigh Road Upgrade near Shaw Pocket was completed just in time for Christmas. The upgrade allows vehicles to travel around the bend more safely at speed (80kmh).

Meals on Wheels Christmas run today. French Onion soup, sweet and sour pork, turkey with roast vegetables for Christmas Day. Plus Christmas wouldn't be complete without Christmas Pudding. Thank you to the meals On Wheels team and to Jim and Jan who volunteer their time every week and allowing me to join their run today. They are a truly lovely couple.
