Dearest sweet true ladies of this list.
 
Not long ago I asked many of you beautiful fair damsels could you help with knitting some penguin suits. You did to the point it took ages to get the smile off my face, beautiful to know so many care. Sad about the lack of male knits though. One lady who wishes to remain anonymous knitted up a "Adelaide Crows" penguin suit which one a competition. It was brilliant and made many laugh when worn. I siincerely thank you all.
 
Don't stop knitting but could you give this some thought please?
 
Each year 6.5 BILLION yep BILLION not million plastic bags are used in
Australia. Many sadly end up killing wild birds, mammals and animals,
let alone spoil the very beautiful land of Australia.
 
Talk has started here in Victoria about imposing a 25 cents per bag surcharge, I don't think thats thee answer but something sure has to be done rather then leave it to private enterprise.
 
I was wondering about hand knitted shopping bags that resemble or have a bird "mo teeth" on them? owl about Birds Australia or BOCA shopping bags?
 
Come on everyone this really is private enterprise madness at its best,
lets stop and think, then change this plastic bag lunacy.
 
Do we still have a good sized stockpile of wool?
 
JAG thinking of a gold and "Aubergine" striped hand knitted shopping bag, or one with his Eggy on it?


Do you Yahoo!?
