I noticed last night that some of the vollies even came interstate, I think all the way from Melbourne and Perth! I don't know if you follow
Meshel Laurie on Twitter, Sneaky, but it's rather humbling to watch random little calls for action or items, often preceded by donations of the "Does-anyone-need-a-[insert good/service/hand]" variety, and watching little connections of necessity and charity being made and information being disseminated and people being found and so on...

In weather news, it's hot today, and we went on a big walk sans sunscreen. The back of my neck has paid the price.
Cheers,
