If you’re travelling during the long weekend, do the right thing; it’s not worth losing your license or even a life.

The weather is warming up and we all want to see family, friends and loved ones because this time of the year is arguably the best.

But if you’re not taking on all the traffic and heading away to the coast for a couple of days there’s still a bit on around town.

The Boomi Mud Trials take place on Saturday and Sunday and the greyhounds will run over Saturday and Monday at the race club.

A barbecue will also be on at the race club for all people associated with the greyhounds.

And for those of us who are keen rugby league fans, don’t forget about the grand final on Sunday night.

Will it be the the end of a 43-year wait for Rabbitohs fans, or will the Dogs have their day?

Take care over the long weekend, it doesn’t matter if you end up running a little bit late.

Turning up to a friend’s place late is better than not turning up at all.

Enjoy your long weekend and may the best team win!
