Normally, I sit in my home office thinking that there is nothing happening on a weekend but this weekend is slightly different.

ANZAC Day is tomorrow, as we all know. It will be the first time in my lifetime that I cannot attend a dawn service, a regular occurrence in the Mumford household.

This is why we created the ANZAC Day button on the front page. We encourage you to rise early and be at the top of your driveway, verandah or balcony to push the play button on the Ode and Last Post link at 6am. Have your candle ready or turn the torch on in your mobile phone. You need nothing else, just your mobile phone and your physical presence. It may only be for 5 minutes (ANZAC Day)

If you do feel like rising earlier the National Dawn Service will be broadcast on the ABC live at 5:30am plus there will be the regular 10am service from the Sydney War Memorial, also broadcast on the ABC.

The weather will continue to be magnificent, no change there (Weather)

Mostly sunny days with tops of 27 degrees and the lovely early chill of 12. There may be some rain coming our way on Tuesday but the word from the BOM is 0-2mm at best.

Petrol prices continue to slide in Lismore. The cheapest is still the United station on Ballina Road at 110.9, down another 4c a litre since Monday. There is some 114.9 at the Caltex on Woodlark Street and on Dawson Street near the Square. Nimbin, you're paying 118.9.

Is there more of a decrease to come? Yes, should be the answer with Casino prices being 101.9, Coraki 105.9 and Newrybar 99.9 cents per litre. A hint if you want to exercise at the beach, don't fill up in Ballina, prices there are still 127.9.

The Lismore Farmers Markets is on tomorrow from 8am to 11:30am. They too will be having a minutes silence for ANZAC Day at 9am.

As you may have red in my earlier story about the Lismore Lantern Parade (Lismore Lantern Parade is going Virtual in June) Jyllie Jackson and her team will be selling some Lantern Parade 'Do It Yourself' kits for $15 so we can help put together a virtual Lismore Lantern Parade in 2020. Get along and buy some kits as the money raised will help keep the Lantern Parade running so we will have this iconic event in November and for the years to come.

As well as that, some fantastic autumn fruit and vegetables will be on sale.

The Blue Knob Community Markets will also be on from 8:30 to 11am tomorrow with some ANZAC biscuits to purchase as well as the fruit and veg.

Now, for some jokes, we need to keep smiling in these self isolating times.

The first person to buy fish and chips after lockdown is eased.
