Walk Against Warming


Well, I finally finished the major part of painting last Sunday. I had a little celebration inside as it's been such a painstaking job. Still waiting to hear from the electricians as to when they will be coming to do the final fittings.

Just on a non-house topic, I thought I'd mention the Walk Against Warming that is happening all over Australia, this Sunday, 11th November. It's a day to show politicians (just before the federal election) and fellow Aussies that there a plenty of people who are concerned about global warming and also that there is so much that can be done to try and reduce it...if only everyone would act now. So, if you're concerned too (and you live in Australia), come and join one of the many walks that are taking place across Australia this Sunday. Sarah (my sister) and I will be joining the walk in Sydney, which begins in the Domain. There will be talks from Senator Bob Brown and Peter Garrett, and lots of music. The website for the walk is http://www.walkagainstwarming.org/ - it has details of where the walks will be taking place (even in country towns) and all sorts of other information. You can even purchase a 100% organic cotton, Aussie made, Walk Against Warming t-shirt. Please come and join in!

(BTW, I'll be catching a train to Sydney, rather than the car...more enviro-friendly!)
