FOOD & WINE NEWS
White Hat criticism of Grocery Choice vindicated?

In August 2008 the Australian Government launched its Grocery Choice website as part of an election promise which it said would combat grocery price rises by publicising individual item price comparisons between major distributors. White Hat believed to model was flawed from the start and gave our reasons in the strong criticism we in our food newsletter published two days after the launch of the site. In June, the Australian Government suddenly and unexpectedly terminated the scheme. You can read White Hat's initial criticisms which could also prove useful in the implementation of any future scheme at The White Hat Food Newsletter of August 2008.

TOURISM NEWS
Qantas In Flight Magazine chooses White Hat Cemetery Tour as its featured Australian tour for May

There are many fine historical tours throughout Australia including cemetery tours. From these, the prestigious Qantas In Flight Magazine has chosen the White Hat Tour of Melbourne Cemetery as its featured Australian tour for the May 2007 edition. This tour was also featured by ABC radio on 24 May and will feature in a documentary series on Burke and Wills to be shown on European television in 2008. The tour has been operating for many years and has won praise from a wide range of sources. This is not a dry and stuffy tour but in keeping with all White Hat offerings it is Informed, Intelligent, Independent (and occasionally) Irreverent. You can find details of the tour at White Hat Tour of Melbourne Cemetery and view the article at Qantas In Flight Magazine.
