Join Caroline Wilson and Corrie Perkin for Part Two of our Live Christmas Show.  We were raising funds at our event for The Salvos Drought Relief programs. They work alongside of other rural support agencies, participate in community engagement activities and conduct regular visits to farmers and rural workers in need of practical assistance, or simply a listening ear and a hand of friendship. Our donation will go towards emergency financial assistance e.g. help with bills, vouchers for farming supplies, help in the delivery of donated goods and food hampers and much more. If you would like to make a contribution via our fundraising page HERE.  Thanks to Select Harvests, Cobram Estate, Humphrey Law Socks and Hardie Grant Books for donating wonderful prizes for our lucky door prizes.    TIME CODES / SHOW NOTES 1.00 min Caro and Corrie welcome Anna Barry (aka Anna from the Op-Shop) and Julia Wilson (aka Caro’s Mum). 2.00 – What annoys us most about Christmas?
