Phans of The Phantom of the Opera, will enjoy this Australian version of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Love Never Dies. The contentious sequel was not well received in the West End, but the brand new Australian production is pretty impressive.

Do you use parent and child parking spaces at supermarkets?
“No I don’t because I don’t drive. I think I would if I did because it’s so dangerous trying to cross a supermarket car park. Some drivers really don’t watch where they are going.”
Isla Petrie
Mother of three
“No I don’t because they are never free. And it’s not always full of parents either. They are rammed with people without children who are too lazy to park further away.”
Kellie Jones
Mother of four
“Yes I do. They have wider parking spaces which helps stop idiots parking so close to my car doors.”
