Meet Ella. She was born with cystic fibrosis but, having met her, I can confirm you will not meet a happier kid. You can help kids like Ella, and others with CF, if you buy one of 15,000 roses @CysticFibrosis1 plan to sell around WA on Friday. #65rosesday

Perth Glory to play Star Wars Round game on Dec 9. Team website says, "We'll be using the Force to try and down the Jets here at nib Stadium". And here I was thinking I'd seen the last of the Force at nib Stadium. nitter.cf/PerthGloryFC/status/93…

Buy a family ticket and two adults and two children can enjoy seeing Glory tackle @NewcastleJetsFC in the Star Wars Round, PLUS the Round 11 clash with @WgtnPhoenixFC for just $99! That's a 50% saving! Click here - bit.ly/2zLjqDH #CREATEDESTINY

Got an angry email from a reader, who argued same-sex marriage was "an insult to every married couple". Married couples clearly thin-skinned
