A seasoned bard

Guy Kachel had an idyllic entry to the world of music. Born in Tamworth, he was raised on the banks of the Peel River. The landscape was a fertile ground for his imagination. Seeing this rustic world change, as Tamworth developed into an inland city and friends grew to sometimes troubled adulthoods, provided insights for the artistry that later powered his career as a performer.

Mandy Nolan’s Soapbox: Why Being Seen is Beautiful

There is something profound about being seen. Being accepted and loved for exactly who you are. It’s life changing. It’s simple. It’s transformative. But some people don’t get to experience this. Nearly half of transgender Australians have attempted suicide.That data tells the very real impact of discrimination, stigma and lack of access to gender-affirming surgery. I write this as a woman who was born a woman, who identifies as a woman. I’ll admit, that even in that gender role, that fits within the societal binary, I’ve had my own challenges.

This summer, a new venture with an old soul is coming to the Brunswick Heads dining scene – The Kingswood.
The Kingswood is designed to fit right into the fabric of Bruns – it is steps from the beach and across from the classic riverside park with a warm retro-hip interior. Donna Hingston and Sally Thomas, two lifelong friends and now co-owners of The Kingswood, have set out to create something special that’s welcoming to all.
At lunch, expect a top sambo, farm-fresh salads, a smattering of share plates, or a plat du jour. If you are heading to the park you can grab a picnic box full of goodies on the way or a coffee by Mecca. Dinner will offer a wider range of dishes and a creative combination of happy snacks and sweet endings.
The menu is energetic and always changing, including plenty of options for vegetarians, vegans, and people on gluten-free diets. Dishes have a splash of Mediterranean sunshine designed to pair beautifully with a craft beer or a fabulous wine.
The owners say the wine list is a key feature, including natural and low-intervention wines from both Australia and old-world wine regions. Also on offer will be sangrias, spritzes, and some of the best of the Australian craft beer scene.
Chef Tim Smith is behind the pans in the kitchen, having returned to Aussie shores after a successful tenure at Potato Head Beach Club in Bali. With a sustainable spirit, The Kingswood’s coastal-inspired kitchen will offer a shared dining experience and aims to deliver uncomplicated excellence.
The Kingswood has a casual elegance, and you can mingle in the footpath dining area in beautiful downtown Brunswick Heads or head into the cozy dining room for an intimate gathering. The Kingswood is now open, and is also available for parties and private events.
