In just over a week Birds & Fellas will be celebrating its fourth birthday. Our writer, Beth, thought she should find out for herself exactly what it is that makes this salon so special. http://bizmagazine.com.au/anything-goes-at-birds-fellas/

We're not sure if you've noticed, but denim is back in a BIG way this season and we've got all the inside goss from one of our edgiest fashion retailers, {Mangowood} of Port Fairy. Check out their story in this edition of bizmag, on our streets now. Have you seen it?

We're a bit early, but we couldn't help ourselves. The Port Fairy Folk Festival is in March and we really want to make sure our readers book their tickets! Plus, we're pretty excited that {Paul Kelly and Charlie Owen} will be there, plus so many more big acts that we already love, or are yet to discover. http://www.portfairyfolkfestival.com/tickets/tickets-releases-%E2%80%A2-2016/

Joanne Madeline-Moore was once an actress who graced our television screens and the stage. Today, she lives in her beautiful home in Penshurst applying herself to a totally different trade. She's our special guest in this edition's {Why I Love What I Do}. Out now.

We were fortunate enough to spend some time in one of the region's most beautiful locations, where all of the senses are stimulated. Can you guess where we went? All shall be revealed in our latest edition, out this week!

Wondering why we have a photo of a dog on the beach? You'll have to get your hands on the summer edition of {bizmag} to find out why! We'll give you a hint - it's all about The Things We Love.

Say hello to Christina, who is second from the left in this photo. Christina was the lucky winner of our reader survey in issues 47 and 48. She won a $500 shopping spree at Decked Out On Bank in Port Fairy, a two night stay at Quest Warrnambool, and a $300 dining experience at Basalt Wines "Shane Clancey" in Killarney. What a prize! She's pictured here with Vanessa from Decked Out On Bank on her left, and David and Naomi from Quest Warrnambool on her right. Basalt Wines "Shane Clancey" couldn't be in the photo but his Pinot Noir and award winning Riesling did an excellent job standing in for him. Congratulations Christina!

Can you guess which town we'll be profiling in the December/January edition of {bizmag}? We can tell you that there's plenty happening there right now!

Want to know how Josh Van Andel started his tattoo business in Warrnambool? Check out the latest edition of {bizmag} when it hits your favourite cafe or hang out next week!

Tradelink in Warrnambool not only supplies gear to local tradies, home renovators can choose the latest fit outs - just like on your favourite TV reno show! Pop in and have a look at their slick showroom @ 27 Fairy St!

See this fresh, young face? He just might be the future owner of one of Warrnambool's oldest family businesses. Make sure you pick up a copy of bizmag, due out early December to learn how a family business can, indeed work.
