157: Marion Saunders is 59 & fabulous, with 100,000 followers

Marion Saunders, who goes by Maz, is a mum to four adult children and a grandmother to six. Seven years ago, she'd never even heard of Instagram. Today, she's clocked up over 100,000 followers who are hooked on her down to earth, over 50 fashion and lifestyle content- sprinkled with her humorous reels she films. I've been following Maz for a while, but there's a lot I didn't know about her back story.Like how she met her husband at a bank, and how he asked her to marry him while she was on the phone to him in a phone box she'd fed with a 20 cent coin. Maz has lived on the land for years, but after being hit by two major floods in recent years, she's had enough. Four months ago they had to evacuate their property near Carinda in NSW, and move into town - they got out in a boat- and they only just walked back in the door last week...just in time for Christmas. This is her story.        Christmas book list! Get your hands on Fleur McDonald's latest gripping crime novel, Broad River Station. A young police officer faces prejudice in a small country town, until the search for a missing child changes everything.
