On The Wireless

We got a text today asking Catherine 'Is that you on the radio?'


Well, yes, it was.


This morning we went along to ABC Illawarra's open day, and got a tour of the studios in Victoria Street. They asked for two volunteers to appear on air, and Catherine seized the opportunity. So, whilst the Breakfast Show host Peter Riley told us about how the studios operated, Catherine and another visitor met, and were briefly interviewed live on air by, Nick Rheinberger.


Afterwards we learned about ABC Open, a project to collect ordinary people's stories through various forms of media. 


Finally the CWA provided us with coffee and biscuits.


I was surprised at how small the whole set-up was, but it works very well, and is run by a dedicated and friendly team to provide an excellent local service.


We took photos.
