I am very pleased with the designer exhibition and will expand to other products other than jewellery. Some are selling well, others are slow. We welcome your feedback.
I really want to promote the work of local designers and artists and craftspeople – as well as myself of course- as I value more and more buying something that is beautifully made by one of our own community. As with ‘slow’ food we all benefit by using ‘local’.
Without being too political, I am attaching a letter and membership form from Queanbeyan
woman Toni McLelland who is trying to form a new political party. I am happy to support her because of her efforts and ‘having a go’

Proverb for the week
‘Nothing should be done in a hurry except catching fleas’ Germany
We saw ‘Snow Cake’ this week. A delightful film and an eye opener for me re autism.
I have told my husband that I think he is somewhat autistic because of the way he repeats himself about how he has put the bins out and also the cricket scores – not just Australia, but the world.
The lucky newsletter voucher for this week goes to Ann Harkness. Must be collected from the bead shop by next Thursday 23th August 2007.
