This is a quick entry from work to at least put
something new on my blog in lieu of all the things I wanted to post about over the last couple of months.
Just to let you know, that if i had more time and had it been a higher priority i would have written a post about:
- the amazing washington street garden working bee series
- my holiday and tour of Canberra, Wollongong and Sydney friends in September
- my new no-dig garden bed (my lastest garden feature!!)
- my very recent and uplifting trip to Melbourne to participate in the Make Poverty History events timed with the G20 meeting.
I still plan to write a post and would especially like to add some photos about these things.
Please let me know other things you'd like me to put on my blog.
Some things I am
thinking about doing in 2007:
- taking stock of 2006 - reminding myself of achievments- including events/activities/things learnt/ways i've grown/people I've known/
- going swimming as much as possible at the beach in summer!
- camping near a beach (this summer activity has painfully eluded me in the last few years)
- staying in the shack at
Yorktown (sorry this link isn't directly about The Shack) maybe over New Years - but should i choose to stay in Hobart instead and take up the opportunity to be one of the judges in the "
Eat Well Tasmania" award for best dish at the Taste of Tasmania (28th-29th Dec) ? (keeping in mind I'll be sacrificing some holiday in Gravelly Beach....)
- doing a Permaculture course 22Jan-4Feb
- coordinating "
Fair Trade Fortnight" events in Hobart (April-May) - possibly including coffee farmers from PNG as part of their speaking tour of Australia
- running a poverty
simulation game at my church's conference
- Last night I just became a committee member for the "
Tasmanian Centre for Global Learning", it's only 5 meetings a year but should give me useful experience, insights & contacts with people
I think I'll stop there because otherwise it will take up too much work time.
See you soon - I hope, and I'd love it if you left a comment because it encourages me to write more posts. Perhaps you could vote on which of the above things you like me to blog about next.
