Been There Done ThatAnother Easter – but where are the Bilbies?As we enjoy a quiet contemplative time over Easter and indulge in chocolate goodies, we reflect upon the pagan events which preceded Christian religious celebrations, noting that the Australian pagan festival of sport has now become the focus of public celebrations.

Our recent Queer Film Festival featured a coming-out film, Love, Simon.  Some critics have called this f...
