Mosman businessman Peter Carre developed a passion for medical technology when his daughter Jamie was badly injured playing representative basketball in 2011.

Nobody ever expected Mosman to become the front line of World War Two. But on a crisp Autumn evening in 1942, as the sun dipped west behind the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the final stage of an audacious plan to invade Australia's largest city was almost complete.

It promised premium food offerings for the time-poor and elite, but after less than 12 months, David Jones Food emporium in Mosman is about to be shuttered.

State run buses on Sydney’s north shore will be privately operated from October 31. Transport company Keolis Downer has been awarded the $900 million contract.

The tastes and flavours of winter will be celebrated when WinterFeast Night Market returns to Mosman in July with the popular market, which features artisan wares, gourmet food and beverages and more.

Mosman dog owners will be forced to place their animals in a box or basket if they wish to commute by ferry from July 1. Sign the petition here.
