Hi Foxy, Good news story.

Had a group of Aboriginal folk turn up yesterday, about a dozen or so in a couple of old cars. Grandma, and her two daughters, one fella and a bunch of teens and youngsters. It was Brekky Club morning, sat them down, and then managed to get everyone a feed, some lollies and ice blocks for the kids, instant noddles, cereal and toasties, tea, coffee, juice, toast Vegemite etc and biscuits. All good, went on their way with a couple of family packs of groceries, personal hygiene pack, and fresh fruit & veg, bread, day old cakes and frozen meals. Don't know where they were heading.

p/s, We had a windfall, got the nod for part of the proceeds from this years Council Spring Festival/Carnival. The 4 days finished last Sunday, there was a good roll up. Battling to keep up with grocery demand, so I'll put it to the next ops meeting that we allocate the entire amount to basic grocery purchases.

The wonderful people on The Project bullied the gentlemanly Kamahl out of his correct belief that $40 billion dollars is wasted every year on the aboriginal industry, saying it was $4.5 billion.

Liars! A quick check with the Productivity Commission reveals that the amount is $39.5 billion. Near enough to 40 for anyone .

A further check reveals that the $40 billion wasted on the aboriginal industry is about the same as the amount spent on the defence of Australia.

Dear Paul,

I admire the work and effort that you put in to help
others. You see things at the grass roots level.
I've also got quite a bit on my plate at the moment
but nowhere near as much as you.

I count my blessings every day. Last week-end I had the
family over, it was so easy, and so rewarding. Tiring,
but rewarding.

My oldest son and his family may be moving to Europe
for a while. There's a job opp. on offer for a few years.
This means the whole family will be gone for a while.
I've got mixed feelings about that. Still it's his and his
wife's decision. But it's hard not to worry.

Answer- Thanks for the information ttbn. Very concerning sounds like an extreme amount of spending on a per capita basis in favour of Australian Aboriginal peoples. Surprising that they are still in poverty despite their privileged financing situation.
