Some of the African countries that have been receiving food aid since before I can remember are now in the position that even if every part of their country produced DOUBLE its best ever crop -- they still couldn't feed their own population .

Food aid should be cut from those countries which produce nothing but more hungry mouths.Hard but there is no restraint in the way this situation is handled today,gimmee gimmee gimmee !

I was talking to a young guy today about BandAid, he had not heard of it. After the explanation I told him about a British DJ saying some years after it that he was going to do something positive about the starving millions, he was going to stop donating because the numbers were doubling.

Lovely sunny day here. Nice day to relax in the sun and listen to the cricket.

Pity I kept being interrupted by people wanting me to do work, but it can't be helped.

I've got socks and sheepskin slippers on right now. Haven't had aircon on to cool the house down since last summer, but did put it on an hour ago to warm it up.

Chilly here too, flanno and tracky dacks, plus my oldest slippers.

This looks interesting, and far better than the current bladed wind turbines, killing birds, and with recycling issues that are spoiling the landscape.

Apparently, 4 2mt ones on a house can run that house's basic power requirements (lights, low power electrical appliances (tv's, kettles etc but not AC's)

Where was Greta when all this was going on?

"It is odd to think we are finding marine reptiles, turtles and fish in what is now essentially desert in outback Queensland but back in the Cretaceous period [145- 66 million years ago] it was an inland sea," she said.
