It’s happening: Melbourne is hosting the first-ever Bunnings Warehouse Party
  • Headlining this epic event is Aussie music legends Peking Duk, who will be joined by What So Not, Kaila, NayNay and Lottie (who also moonlights as a Bunnings team member by day). It’s set to take place on August 31 in the store’s car park, with all funds raised going towards Support Act – a not-for-profit organisation that provides crisis relief and mental health support to people in the music industry.

    So it's a corporate PR charity concert event? not the most offensive thing I can think of.

    Reading the description of the state of his body, how they could at all think it was self inflicted is beyond me. And how can an ex-cop refuse to give evidence like that?
