Once again Eurovision provided excitement, patriotic fervour, protests, boycotts, questionable voting, tension, controversial choices, moments of hysteria, surprises and shocks – but above all glamour, music, madness and touching gestures of international humanity, proving that after 70 years we can still be “united in song.”
Australia’s Delta Goodrem became crowd favourite from the moment she arrived in Vienna. Her beautiful smile, warm interaction with the crowds, friendliness with other performers, cooperation and patience with the press, technicians, stage crew, directors and musicians during the long, tedious hours of rehearsal difficulties were qualities seldom seen by audiences and television viewers. Even before a note was sung, and Finland was touted as a potential winner, the international media had already named her their favourite.

At a recent visit to Eumundi’s Repair Café, Mayor Rosanna Natoli congratulated organisers explaining the initiative supports council’s broader waste management goals, including zero waste to landfill and net-zero emissions by 2041. The café’s philosophy is to extend the life of household goods through the skills of local residents using tools and sewing machines. It is part of a global movement of more than 3,500 repair cafés working to keep materials out of landfill. The café operates every second Thursday of the month at the Eumundi QCWA Hall from 10.30am-2.30pm.
The mayor also met with members of the Eumundi Residents Association (ERA) and other residents to discuss key community priorities. These included the potential development of a Eumundi Neighbourhood Centre, a call for resident-only parking, the success of the 2025 Eumundi Writers Festival – which was reviewed in The Weekend Australian – and the next festival to be held from 4-6 September.
Mayor Natoli explained that earlier requests for resident-only parking schemes in other business districts on the Sunshine Coast had been rejected by the SCC’s Transport and Infrastructure Department making it impossible for such a scheme on Memorial Dr. However, she particularly supported ERA’s work with residents on a 10-year plan for the town focused on heritage protection, community development and the local economy.
The discussion highlighted the need for more community meeting spaces. One community member raised concerns about the derelict top-of-town site. The meeting also noted a proposal by the Qld Redistribution Commission to move Eumundi into a new Nambour electorate, marking a significant political shift after 3 decades within the Ninderry and Noosa electorates. ERA has lodged a submission opposing the change.
First Officer Geoff Garley from the Eumundi Rural Fire Brigade followed with a presentation about the vital role volunteers play, and the opportunities available for future volunteers – not only on the frontline but also in administration, equipment maintenance and public education. He said all new volunteers would be welcome, fully trained and well supported in their activities.
ERA will continue liaising with the mayor, who promised to visit Eumundi again. For more information on ERA or to join visit: eumundiresidents.org.au. ... See MoreSee Less
