Wednesday saw Australia-wide festivites as the nation celebrated Anzac day, a day of remembrance for Australian and New Zealand forces who served in WW1, mostly at Gallipoli.
The day is marked with especially poignant dawn services, games of two-up and all the pomp and solemnity that goes with war memorials. Save for Bathurst, a war memorial where dawn services were due to take place, but was vandalised late on Anzac eve by two teenagers. The girls daubed Anzac murderers and Aussies don’t fight on the walls of the memorial in white paint.
