They became beloved pets to the miners and helped make life a little bit easier for them in the Wild West. At the iconic Frank Lloyd Write structure with it's many hidden passages.

Once upon a time, in a magical kingdom nestled between towering mountains and shimmering rivers, there lived a kind and joyful princess named Lily. She loved to play in the royal gardens, dance with the butterflies, and listen to the sweet songs of the birds. Everyone in the kingdom adored her, from the tiniest mouse to the grandest elephant. One day, while playing near the edge of the Enchanted Forest, Princess Lily wandered off, chasing a beautiful rainbow butterfly. As she ventured deeper into the forest, the trees grew taller, and the paths became twisty and confusing. Soon, she realized she was lost. Back at the castle, the king and queen were worried. They called upon the bravest knights, the cleverest animals, and even the friendly forest fairies to help find their beloved princess. Together, they searched far and wide, but the forest was vast, and the princess was nowhere to be found. Meanwhile, Princess Lily made new friends in the forest: a talking squirrel named Nutty, a wise old owl called Hoot, and a tiny dragon named Spark. They decided to help her find her way home. Along the journey, they faced many adventures—crossing rivers on stepping stones, solving magical riddles from a grumpy troll, and learning the true meaning of friendship. With courage, teamwork, and a little magic, Princess Lily and her friends finally found the path back to the castle. The kingdom rejoiced, and from that day on, Princess Lily made sure to always carry her heart compass—a reminder that no matter how lost you feel, you can always find your way home with love and the help of good friends. And so, the story of the lost princess became a cherished tale in the kingdom, teaching everyone that adventure is wonderful, but there’s nothing more precious than being surrounded by those who care about you. Moral: True friends can help guide you home, even in the most magical of forests.

Once upon a time, two friends named Alex and Poppy were playing on a sunny beach. They built massive sandcastles and splashed in the warm waves, laughing and having fun. Suddenly, the sky began to darken. The sun hid behind thick clouds, and a strange hush fell over the beach. The seagulls who were as loud as exploding fireworks, suddenly went quiet and flew away in the opposite direction of the ocean. "What’s happening?" asked Poppy, looking nervously at Alex. Just then, a gigantic wave crashed onto the shore. From the frothy water, a frightening figure emerged—a sea witch! She rose high above the waves, her long hair flowing like seaweed, and her eyes glimmered with mischief. The sea witch raised her sparkling triton and pointed it straight at the two friends. Before they could run, a magical pull tugged at them, and they were swept under the water! In the blink of an eye, Alex and Poppy found themselves in the sea witch’s shimmering underwater cave, surrounded by glittering treasures and colourful fish. The sea witch smiled wickedly. “You will help me find my lost crown, or you must stay here forever!” The sea witch became distracted by a family of lost turtles, trying to enter her underwater cave. Alex looked at Poppy, his heart racing. “We need to get out of here!” With a nod of agreement, they started to tip-toe behind the mountains of treasure in the sea witch’s cave. Suddenly, they spotted a golden starfish that shimmered brightly—it looked magical! “Let’s grab it!” shouted Poppy, reaching out. As they grasped the starfish together, a brilliant light filled the cave! With a bright flash, the starfish granted them one wish. The friends looked at each other, grinned, and shouted together, “Take us back home!” In an instant, they found themselves back on the sandy beach, the sun shining down once more. They cheered and hugged each other. “Where have you been?” Alex’s mum asked. “You wouldn’t believe me if I told you!” Alex laughed.

In 2019, Tim Miller's participation in a charity car rally led to the inception of Lids4Kids, a recycling initiative aimed at repurposing plastic lids to support children with cancer. The project gained momentum when a viral Facebook post sparked widespread community involvement, flooding Tim's team with lid donations. Despite initial challenges at recycling depots and a temporary pause due to Covid-19 safety concerns, Tim and his team persevered. With the addition of Emma Holliday, they restructured the charity, establishing The Hub in Canberra as a center for recycling and education. Here, lids were transformed into raw materials for manufacturing, leading to the creation of colorful benches sold to support the charity's operations. Today, Lids4Kids thrives as a symbol of community resilience, having rescued millions of lids from landfills and making a tangible impact on environmental conservation.
