Easter Friday 29/3/13 - Monday 1/4/13
The Easter weekend is from Good Friday on 29/3/13 to Easter Monday 1/4/13. I wish everyone a great Easter.
Where will you be on 22/3/13?
Where better than attending the NSW Budgie Bolt at Tumbalong Park, Darling Harbour, Sydney at 7am on a Friday? Of course! Here's the link:
Youngcare Budgie Bolt 2013 This is a run to raise money for young people with high care needs - trying to keep them out of aged-care facilities. Each runner (bolter) is required to raise at least $250 and run in nothing but their red budgie-smuggler outfits . If you want to run, donate or just have a fun day watching the run the details are on the website. |
Electricity Invoices
These have been sent and payment is due by 8th March (or in a few cases slightly later). As always, if you did not receive yours please email me and I will send one. A couple of people have been contacted as I did not send them a bill because the amount was so small.
Don't forget Earth Hour 2013
The date for this year's Earth Hour is Saturday 23/3/2013 at 8.30 pm, changed so as not to clash with the Easter weekend. Sydney was the very first place to hold Earth Hour and it is said that about 2.2 million homes and businesses participated. The idea came from The Sydney Morning Herald and World Wide Fund for Nature/World Wildlife Fund. Since then of course it has grown to be a global event. In 2012 it was said that 152 countries and over 7000 cities participated. Australia is now involved with a new idea for Earth Hour, with many people not just turning the lights off for an hour but pledging to change to solar power.
The weather - dare I mention it?
Maybe not? (Not as bad as last year.) Ben Loiacono has been giving us regular updates for minor flood warnings from late February, many of which I passed on to everyone. Thank goodness there has been no flooding on the Park as yet, although it doesn't help the state of the roads at all.
