So pleased you all enjoyed your coffee catch up. I was sad to miss it. I'll also miss the next zoom meeting as I'll be working. Have a lovely week 😁

Coffee morning was interesting. Thank you for "The Nest" information. I called in on the way home and bought some wool. I didn't dare look at the fabric. I should probably be contributing rather than buying!

On Saturday I went to the Dr John Sinclair Memorial Lecture given by Dr Bob Brown. It was very powerful and a testament to what dedicated individuals can achieve when they inspire the support of others. It was almost like being at an ACF Northside meeting when he focussed on sustainability, materialism, the corporate push for growth and the inequality lobbying power of business over environmental concerns. When questioned on what can we do, he replied "Do your best but also have fun. Keep being optimistic, being depressed doesn't work".

Perhaps sharing information about some of the good local initiatives like The Nest is one of the important things we could do more of.
