Depending on how deeply ingrained you were in the Sydney party scene back in the late 1980s, you might have found yourself dancing through the night inside a former church – The Kirk – in a relatively quiet corner of Surry Hills. Now, the historic building that turned from house of God into house of hedonism is being granted a new lease of life, set to be transformed into a pretty sizeable food and business precinct. The project is set to bring new energy to the intersection of Crown, Baptist and Cleveland streets, and from what we know so far, The Kirk’s next iteration is looking interesting.

The ant swarm is coming – in fact, it may already be here. The best you can do is accept your fate and learn to embrace life with the winged beasts as our tiny overlords. Each year, hundreds of thousands of tiny flying ants descend upon the UK in high summer when the temperature and humidity reaches a high point. They do this because they thrive in the warmth, and they’re more commonly found in urban areas, which tend to be hotter.

Flying Ant Day 2024 has arrived: here’s how long the swarms last and why they appear
