My Triangle, our long-lived and much-loved column, is a profile of a local person, or couple, or sometimes even a family. We’ve gone through the archives to present them all here – stories of our neighbours, friends, families, customers, storekeepers … we hope you enjoy them anew.
You can also listen to our My Triangle interviews on The Triangle Community News podcast.
The Triangle is a community paper, principally for the region bounded by the three prominent mountains: Peak Alone, Gulaga and Mumbulla. It is produced on the traditional lands of the Yuin nation and we acknowledge that this was and will always be Yuin Country. We are grateful for their thousands of years of careful and deliberate stewardship of Country and pay our respects to Yuin Elders past, present and emerging.
The Triangle, a not-for-profit, local, community newspaper, comes out on the first day of every month except January. Published since 2002 we have a print circulation of 1800, with a larger circulation over the summer holiday season. Our paper is free and available in print and online. If you live outside the Triangle area, an annual subscription of $45.00 will cover delivery of all 11 issues.

My Triangle – Brian Ayliffe
/in My Triangle /by Tikka WilsonWhen I bragged to a neighbour that Brian Ayliffe was The Triangle podcast feature interview this month, she quietly said, ‘Brian is my hero. I would follow him anywhere.

/in My Triangle /by Tikka WilsonEmma is someone I wave to on my road, a neighbour and someone who pops up regularly on the Cobargo mailing list inviting us all to play tennis or come along to a community event.
