We wish all our

Don’t listen to the doomsayers. We live in the best country in the
world! It is ALL good!!
A very interesting & informative video relating to timber
- The solution to global warming, all round saviour &
lungs of the world.
Not many kids are aware of where
our food is sourced.
A surprising number do not even
know that a carrot grows in the ground!
This pilot project gives them a
chance to actually grow food in their own school.
A government assisted initiative
to promote healthy living & food choices.
Ask your local Primary School if
they are involved. If they are not – ask them why?
As mentioned in other parts of our website, we are
pro-sustainability.
If it can’t be plantation grown, then at least it needs
to be legally logged from an approved source.
Reduce demand for illegal logging & buy the approved
stuff.
Do your bit to reduce global warming & stop unregulated
deforestation.
Trees absorb carbon. Plantations & managed forests grow
trees. The cycle continues.
Arch Chemicals is our chemical
supplier.
This will link to technical
information on the treatment chemical.
Now, this is what I call a REAL charity. It is run by Rotary.
They are a 100% volunteer organisation. That means when you donate money
100% goes to the project. They do not pay their executives huge salaries,
run fleets of luxury cars or find the “need” for a flash office
block to run their huge “charity industry” organisation.
I may sound cynical. The world is full of worthy causes, but
there are plenty of organisations that make a (very comfortable tax payer
subsidised) living out of other peoples hardship. Rotary is not one of
them! It is a true volunteer organisation and by my definition is one of
the very few “true charities”
Rotary is not in the “charity business”. It is
made of charitable business people volunteering their time, putting
something back into the community. Rotary community projects are very
carefully chosen and are very worthy or my and your support. .
Please click on the above link or contact your local Rotary
Club for more information.
Timber Merchant Association.
We are proud to be a member.
Our preferred gate manufacturer.
Quality at a good price
As we become time poor, we neglect
to look after ourselves.
Poor diet & lack of regular
exercise can very soon bring on a few kilos & before you know it, you
are no longer fit enough to run around after the kids.
Personal training is an ideal
solution.
Industry experts can improve your
lifestyle and health with diet and exercise.
All in a private studio. No egos
on show. It is your time for you.
(As used by “Cat” from
Biggest Loser series 1)

Yes, there are still some
AUSTRALIAN manufacturers left!
Believe it!
Great products, quality & most
of all they employ Victorians in Victoria!
Murray Drew – Unique
Australian Artist.
Colourful, quirky, funny, wry,
dry, cheerful & most of all PROUD to embrace AUSTRALIAN culture.
Put one of his prints in you
family or games room and put a smile on your face.
They won’t make it to the
NGV, but then as the saying goes, “if it causes a reaction, it is
art.”
At least you will understand it!
We are proud sponsors of a girls
and boys team
Anything that gets kids outside
& off the couch has got to be good.
The World Cup success &
Melbourne Victory has inspired a new generation to take up the round ball
version of football.
Personally I am fiercely proud of
my footy ((AFL) Go Pies!), but I am also quite happy to watch a game of
football too! Go Melbourne
Victory!
Excellent supplier of printers,
laptops and computers.
Most are “factory
returns” – this means you are saving up to 50% off retail.

12 month manufacturer’s warranty.
Sometimes you can’t avoid
contributing to global warming.
However, it is not very stylish
riding a bike or a skateboard to a wedding in a full bridal dress.
It can also be disrespectful going
to a funeral on roller skates.
Turn up in a limo a turn more than
just heads!
If you want to travel in style and
arrive to be noticed, then Rob is the man for you.
Weddings, parties & anything.
Look at the website for more info.
You will be impressed!
People have asked, “why do
we give away free wine and promote this winery?”
The answer is simple –
value, quality & consistency.
When you find something good
– shout it from the rooftops!
There is enough for everyone!
Like us, they are a family
business – not a faceless corporate multinational.
Australia’s oldest family owned winery.
Anyway, red wine is good for you!
And their reds are great!!!
Enjoy in moderation!
