Anzac Day is a national day of remembrance in Australia and New Zealand.
iPrimus would like to recognise all those who lost their lives in service to their country, in all wars. We have posted a list of sites that have all the information required on services and marches on this day as well as the history of those who died, served or are serving in military operations for their countries.

Every year, many cities around the world ask their residents to switch off the lights for an hour, encouraging debate and action over climate change. It can be particularly fun to find a clear view of the buildings in your city and watch them turn off one by one.
Watch this video of the world's greatest building going dark in an instant.
Earth Hour 2011 will take place on March 26, 2011 from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30p.m., in your local city.
Check out http://www.earthhour.org.au/ to see how you too can take part in action against climate change.
In our last newsletter we ran a competition to giveaway one of our LG Android smart phones.
We asked you to tell us why you needed a smarter phone. Congratulations to Robin from NSW who explained in a clever and funny way how the Smartphone will have her keeping up with the Grandkids. Her entry was …
“I'm sixty eight and on the skids
Need to keep up with grandkids
Android Smartphone is the thing
I cannot wait for them to ring!”
In fact the answers were so great; we've included a selection of the funniest below …
"I find that the string between the 2 tin cans i use now keeps breaking.
The LG Android phone would move me into this century."
“My poor little old mobile phone is being laughed at by my children.
It needs to be retired gracefully before dying of embarrassment.”
“My 3yr old nephew using my phone said 'say cheese' looking confused he turned over my handset and said 'Where is your camera?'”
“To arrange loans, check time zones, locate cyclones, diagnose kidney stones, show the Dow Jones, and order ice cream cones ~ unlike my old drone phones.”
“As I'm not young enough to know it all I really want it to make me look smart at the senior's Big Night Out.
Brenda Noonan is an iPrimus customer who clearly likes a challenge. Brenda is hopping on her bike and riding from Scarborough Western Australia to Scarborough Queensland. Brenda's words below explain the reasoning for her epic journey …
"I am using my efforts and energy with this ride to raise funds for the Heart Foundation - a truly worthwhile cause. I am sure every family has been affected at sometime by cardiovascular disease (CVD) the term used for heart, stroke or blood vessel disease. Sadly it is the leading cause of death in Australia."
When we heard Brenda's story we wanted to share it with the rest of our Customers so check out Brenda's website …
www.brendanoonan-onmybike.com and her youtube clip (featured above) and help support Brenda with this worthy cause.
