Chinese proverb
If I keep a green bough in my heart, then the singing bird will come.

Movies
We saw ‘The diving bell and butterfly’ on Sat. A beautiful, creative movie – but make sure you read a bit about it before you go. Again not a lot of joy but heaps of courage.

My old husband asked me this morning “Have you heard the good news?” I waited with anticipation. “Ponting is having a baby!” There it is girls –now you too know the good news for the day.


The lucky newsletter voucher for this week goes to Cathy Pearson. Must be collected from the bead shop by next Thursday 6th March 2008.
