| Global Warming - Canberra 05 March 2007
| |
This is how Canberra, ACT, looks today. My contact who forwarded the photos has advised that in the 25
years she has lived there this is the first time she has seen snow. Global warming? Not in Canberra,
apparently.

| Global Warming - A Member Recommends
| |
"Why not buy an Intelliplug? It is a 3 socket plug which will automatically turn off two
of the devices when the third is switched off. It's ideal for saving energy when your TV is turned off and
you want to switch off the CD player and DVD recorder at the same time. Ring 0845 310273 or e-mail
info@doctorenergy.co.uk." To find out more about energy saving visit
Doctor Energy's website.

Bankok University Students
| |
Homes are needed for 21year old Bankok University Hospitality Students, mostly girls, arriving on 11 March. A second
group arrives in May. These Thai students are very pleasant, have a packed itinerary and really enjoy living in a
family in the UK. On 9 March there will be a fun evening at Guildford College for parents who are or may be
considering becoming a host family, with cheese and wine, squash and snacks. This will be a great opportunity to
talk to the organisers and to get a clearer idea of how the project works, and to learn about the exciting party
that all host families (children too) are invited to at the end of the stay when the students entertain and feed you!
Please call Gina on 01483 533448 for more information.
