Commenting on the story: $50m luxury hotel set to become “Sydney Opera House” of Barossa

Congratulations to the architectural team who worked on this very exciting structure.

It is exactly what the Barossa needed.

Is it possible that the team may have spent time visiting Bordeaux and admiring the La Cité du Vin, an equally exciting building. – Geoff Holden

May it never see the light of day, especially given the current crisis.

As a former resident of the Valley it saddens me to think any one could be so deluded as to decide that that area would be enhanced by such an excessive and insensitive structure.

It is totally out of keeping with the traditional charm of Seppeltsfield and its surrounding vineyards. – Paul Kolarovich

Commenting on the story: Coronavirus claims Royal Show

Sad that the 2020 Adelaide Royal Show won’t occur.

My grandson Lenny now rising 3 enjoyed his first show 2019.

We just won’t tell him of the cancellation.

Stay informed, daily

He will thoroughly enjoy 2021. Bill Hecker
