Community is one of the big words like the economy, polity or society. Like you, I identify with the smaller.<br /><br />How exciting for you and your daughter! And its so nice that others dropped around. <br /><br />Do you know, I have never actually been to the Antiquities musuem.

I am easily confused within air conditioning. Today is the first day of my daughter's unemployment with a month before her baby is due so i called her in Bellingen to see how she was as a 'worker' and first time mother to be at 30. First day off work and two other mothers were there visting. I LOVE VILLAGES. Even within Cities, we need Villages. <br />I did see the left foot of a mummy at U.N.E. Antiquities Museum, Jim. That cheered me up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25637657.post-67675012644840647922009-11-27T10:21:16.619+11:002009-11-27T10:21:16.619+11:00I think that that captures it, Gordon.I think that that captures it, Gordon.Jim Belshawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10075614280789984767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25637657.post-32755491858013336982009-11-27T10:17:21.679+11:002009-11-27T10:17:21.679+11:00Tangentially: Our nearest neighbours live about 3 ...Tangentially: Our nearest neighbours live about 3 km away. I see or speak to them more frequently than I did to the people who lived in the neighbouring apartments during our two year stint in Sydney (Glebe).macAlbahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08987212277959317677noreply@blogger.com
