Have you heard of Oz Harvest? It's this fabulous, not for profit organization that is trying to reduce - & utilize - the huge amount of food that gets wasted every year in Australia. (Did you know that Aussies throw out up to 40% of the groceries they buy each week??)

Rather than just trashing perfectly good food from restaurants, supermarkets, shops, primary producers, etc, Oz Harvest has set up ingenious systems to collect & distribute the food to hungry Aussies while it's still fresh & nutritious! Sounds pretty sensible to me!

I've just signed a petition on Oz Harvest's behalf which sends a clear message to Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek and the federal government telling them that we need action NOW to reduce the food waste in Australia.

They need as many signatures as possible, so please share this petition with your friends and family using this link https://www.ozharvest.org/petition/. Amplifying the message on social media (like this one!) is also a great way to gain support for this worthy cause.

Thanks for signing & for being an essential part of this positive change!🥰

We need change and government action. If you want to end food waste going to landfill sign the petition today!

Are Americans seriously thinking of putting this deranged snake-oil salesman into the White House? Again? Try to sell me a ho**er, an autographed bible 🤣🤣or a pair of gold sneakers maybe. But inciting violence, insurrection & aggression as the way forward? Please tell me it’s all just a bad dream….

As you may already know, we have now retired! And if you’re wondering how we’re going, well, we’re “lazy & loving it”!

And if you’re wanting a mini-tree change or peaceful forest escape for a few days, remember to check out our gorgeous little bush cabin on the Blackwood River in Nannup at https://www.globalgypsies.com.au/bush-cabin-rental! Bye for now! 👋😀😘

Rent our sweet little Bush Cabin in Nannup! Get back to nature in the heart of Southwest WA's timber country & escape from the city. Two adults only - sorry no children or pets.

Campground at Nullarbor Roadhouse at sunset - as the name implies - not a tree in sight! But as well as a huge gravel parking lot, a motel & a diner, there were two light planes for taking scenic flights over the Great Australian Bight to check out the whales.

Once again our Cub Camper from was right at home in this outback spot!

A lovely stopover in Streaky Bay on SA’s west coast - fresh oysters, fish, prawns - even fresh laundry! Then a visit to Head of the Bight for some mum & bub whale watching before crossing the WA border - still almost 2000 kms to go! Whew!

Ah well - guess it had to happen sometime!! Yuk! Rain while camping! And even worse news - the Iron K**b Pub is permanently closed (as was the whole town!) so we decided to skip that salubrious stop. Instead we drove on to Kimba - quite nice & their pub was alive & well! Never a dull moment! 🤣🤣
