The letter "Q" (but not only!)

We still have a couple "P" topics to finish, so be prepared to talk about POETRY and POLITICAL SYSTEM, please. You will find links in last week's post.



Our new topics will include:

1. The Queen of England (so as you see we are still staying in the realm of governing the country and the division of power)

and

2. Queensland

Have a look at this video. This is just the firs
t random result I got from YouTube, I wasn't searching for it intentionally. And still it just makes you want to pack your things right away and head there ;-)



Queensland is sometimes referred to as the most beautiful state in Australia. And yet they feel the need to address advertisements to prospective tourists. In 2009 they launched the "Best Job in the World" action. Find out what it was all about.

Ben Southall wins the job:




We will also spend some time talking about Gold Coast and Surfers Paradise.

Get some ideas from this video :-)



However, beautiful as it is, Queensland has suffered quite a rough time recently.

If we have time on Friday, I'll give you a short presentation on natural disasters that plagued Australia and New Zealand in past three months - though of course nothing compares to Japan :-(
