• Community gallery, Art On Imlay, is out of pocket by $600 after vandals broke a glass door on Sunday. The cost of the window is the equivalent to the annual cocktail party hosted by the artists.
Four cars spin out
Slippery road conditions on Sunday caused four cars to lose control and crash within 100 metres of each other over three hours just north of Eden.
Police said light rain had brought diesel to the surface on the corner at the start of the overtaking lane heading north on Eden’s outskirts.
Between 12.25pm and 3.40pm on Sunday, the four vehicles hit the slippery patch and oversteered into the bank on the left side of the road.
No injuries were reported, although each of the vehicles required towing from the scene.
The northbound lane was closed four 45 minutes while an RTA crew put oil retardant on the road to prevent further accidents.
