With features including, SOS alert, GPS locator, 4G phone, and AI fall detection technology, Spacetalk LIFE can support older people to live independent healthy and social lives, while providing reassurance and peace of mind to family and friends.

What is the best experience you've ever had on your birthday?

Dianne and Brian had an encounter like no other when they were invited on stage with Dame Edna back in 1999, on what happened to be Dianne’s birthday.

Brian shared this story as part of an intergenerational project between Tatachilla Lutheran College students and Perry Park Residential Care Home residents. In this project, students get to know the residents by creating videos about what they learned about them.

Here's what Brian recalls:

“The kids bought us the tickets, and we loved it. What we didn’t know was that they had bought tickets for the front row. So we made it through the first half, and then the second half began. They announced they wanted a couple to come on stage.

And they picked the two of us, for whatever reason, I do not know. It was Dianne’s birthday, so we got up on stage, with twelve hundred people looking at us. I was thinking, 'I hope there’s no one in this crowd that knows me.' We were served a meal; Dame Edna ordered spaghetti Bolognese. Whatever you do, do not eat spaghetti Bolognese in front of twelve hundred people!

We stayed on stage for the second half of the show. It was fun because Dianne ended up with a kiss on her cheek from Barry Humphries, everyone wished her a happy birthday. After the show, we went for a coffee, and everyone kept recognising us, asking if we had been on stage. Needless to say, it was a night to remember, and we got home quite late, at 1am.”

What a story! Thanks, Brian and Dianne, for sharing. We’re sending our Happy Birthday wishes to Dianne at Perry Park today. 🎂🥳 🥂
