Australians love an excuse for a public holiday.
It’s ripper when it falls on a Tuesday, because it’s a true blue fair dinkum reason to take Monday off, and make it a long weekend!!
Throw another prawn on the barbie, grab a slab of coldies, invite a few mates around, and have a good time
Thanks, girls, whoever you are. And thanks to the photographer, where ever you are – Happy Australia Day

Business Activity Statements BAS are due on 2 march 2010 for businesses that report their GST obligations quarterly
With the Christmas holiday period over for many small businesses, it’s time to get all your paperwork together and get it to your bookkeeper or outsourced bookkeeping service- to report on the 2nd quarter (1 September to 31 December 2009) to get your BAS lodged on time.
Maybe the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) does have a heart, after all. Rather than asking for lodgements on 28 January, they automatically give everyone an extension to the BAS lodgements to 28 February. This is, of course, a Sunday. However, the next business day is not Monday, since it’s a public holiday in Western Australia. Thus the Q2 BAS is due on 2 March 2010
However, don’t be fooled by their grace, because there is NO WAY that they’ll consider granting an extension after that date. So you need to ensure that you have your Business Activity Statement lodged by 2 March 2010
