Editor – Go Kirsty Go! If I were the Reserve Bank Governor, I would put your face on the $500 dollar bill.

If I had supernatural powers, I would bring you down the rainbow.

If I were the President, I would make you the Minister of Sports; and

If I were the CEO of Cadbury, I would build you a house out of chocolates.

Unfortunately, I cannot do that, but there is one thing that I know I can do best for you:

To be your fan and your friend, hats off to you Kirsty!!!!

You are such an inspiration.
