🦘Events Happening This Weekend!
Busses growing moustaches, SA history and fun events!

Guess what…
41 days until Christmas, yay!🎄
On Monday, I asked the community if you’d like “Home of the Week” as a regular segment in the Adelaide Insider. Although 6% more people voted "yes," the overall feedback was that being reminded of house prices isn’t very exciting for most readers.
So, I’ve decided to leave it out. I’d rather include segments that the majority of the community is interested in, rather than one with a split interest.
For those who are still interested, I might even create a dedicated “Adelaide Homes” newsletter in the future!

Did You Know🤔

In what has to be one of Adelaide's most epic construction projects ever, St Peter's Cathedral took a whopping 36 years to complete! Kicking off in 1869, they didn't actually finish building this gorgeous Gothic beast until 1904.
Fun fact: they ran out of money several times during construction, but the people of Adelaide kept chipping in to help get it finished. The result? One of the most stunning buildings in SA, and proof that sometimes the best things really do take time!
Movember Bus 🚌
