⚡️David Bowie with Aboriginal dancer Joelene King while filming Let's Dance in 1983.. ⚡️ Every year on this day we post the same photograph.. this year is no different.. 🖤☀️❤️ Here's some insight into Bowies video for Let's Dance: "In the 1983 video of Let's Dance, a young Aboriginal couple dances in the typical, smoke-filled outback pub of Carinda NSW while Bowie famously sings "put on your red shoes and dance the blues". To Bowie, Carinda – then with a population of 40 – had a "frankly brute character". "As much as I love this country," he told Rolling Stone magazine in 1983, "it's probably one of the most racially intolerant in the world, well in line with South Africa. I mean, in the north, there's unbelievable intolerance." Those red dancing shoes were more than a scarlet innuendo..."

🇦🇺 Happy Australia Day 2024! 🇦🇺

On this Australia Day, I raise a toast to the land Down Under, a part of the Commonwealth family that holds a special place in the hearts of us loyalists to the Crown! 🌏👑

As we celebrate the unique spirit of Australia, I can't help but appreciate the deep historical ties that bind our two nations. From the First Fleet's arrival to the present day, the journey of Australia reflects the enduring connection to the British monarchy.

Cheers to the resilient Aussie spirit that has flourished under the Southern Cross! 🍻🐨 Today, I tip my hat to the diverse landscapes, the iconic wildlife, and the mateship that defines this great nation. May the Southern Hemisphere continue to thrive, flourishing with the warmth of the sun and the pride of its people.

On this special day, let's celebrate the shared values that unite us – a love for freedom, democracy, and a fair go for all. From the bustling cities to the vast Outback, Australia's story is interwoven with the rich tapestry of its British colonial history.

To our mates in the Land of Oz, Happy Australia Day! 🎉🇦🇺 May the ties between our nations remain unbreakable, and may the Southern Cross forever shine brightly in the night sky. Long live the Commonwealth, long live the enduring friendship between Britain and Australia! 🤝🇬🇧🇦🇺

Happy Australia Day!

As we celebrate Australia Day we also remember those for whom this day represents loss of country, lives and self-determination. May we always work for recognition, peace and reconciliation in our great country.

Grant O Lord our God, that as the Cross shines in our southern skies, so may Christ bring light to our nation, to its peoples old and new, and by saving grace, transform our lives. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever.

Australia Day Poem 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

We come together in sunny weather forever and ever,

With laughter and cheer, our spirits high,

Creating memories that will never say goodbye.

With smiles on our faces, and hearts so light,

Together we'll face any challenge in sight!

With love and support, we'll always be,

Forever connected, you and me!

With joy in our hearts, we'll laugh and sing,

Forever together, like the best of friends in spring!

With barbies sizzling and lamingtons sweet,

We'll gather 'round, friends and family we'll meet.

We'll raise our voices, a proud Aussie band.

With a chorus of voices, we'll proudly stand,

With beauty all around, a stunning sight.

As we gather together, hearts full of cheer,

Celebrating our land, with friends so dear!

Since this is a celebration of Australia, let’s start with some flags. Being a national symbol, nothing says “I love my country” more than an abundance of flags.

They are available in practically every store and come in a variety of sizes and shapes. A good way to start is to buy high-quality Australian ensign flags made of sturdy materials. This can include the Nautical flags, the Australian Navy flag or the merchant Red Ensign. Buy as many sizes as you can so you’ll have plenty of choices for decoration and arrangement.
