At last the long awaited Mummy exhibition has hit the Queensland Museum in Brisbane and it is fantastic! The British Museum has over 120 Mummies in their collection from Egypt, and six individual Mummies from Egypt between 3000 and 1800 years ago are now on display here in Brisbane, with more than 200 artefacts from the World famous Egyptian collection.

It was with anticipation that I awaited the 29th Annual French Film Festival in Brisbane by Alliance Française, and it was bigger and better than ever! There were 50 French films featuring the usual iconic French stars such as Gerard Depardieu and Juliet Binoche, mixed with many lesser known, up and coming stars such as Omar Sy and François Cluzet.
