Heard on the National Nine news tonight… “the Easter from hell”. This is how the surf lifesavers’ weekend on the Gold Coast, Queensland has been described in response to two drownings over the long weekend. Leave aside that the Christians hijacked the pagan seasonal celebration of the goddess Eostre.

Hell – Easter, interesting juxtaposition.

Reminder for all who visit the Gold Coast beaches – don’t spoil your holiday by drowning – swim between the flags and don’t swim under the influence of drugs, legal or otherwise.
