Oprah’s favourite things list has dropped for 2023, spreading gift ideas across the land… The most intriguing item – a notebook called ‘I’m Dead, Now What?’ so you can record the details your loved ones might need in the event of your death. Festive or what?

We’ve watched 3 docos this week, and one we recommend for your Friday night is on ABC iView called Rose Gold. It’s the story of the Boomers – not the generation, the national men’s basketball team – and their road to winning bronze in the Tokyo Olympics. It’s about mateship more than sport, and yes, we shed a couple of tears… (Note: we’ll tell you about the other 2 in tomorrow’s Saturday Squiz – what a tease…)

Confession time: we’ve mostly eaten Vegemite toast this week. So we’re lining up this San Choy Bow for dinner tonight. Fresh and crunchy, we always feel good for eating it.
