Highlights of my week:


Having some ingrate report us to a certain social network website because they cannot remember that we have met and talked. Interesting as “friend” requests have only ever been sent to folkies and some wanabes who have been enfolded in the hope they acquire some wisdom and develop lives fulfilled through folkmusic.

Being told by a knowledgeable person that they approve of the programme's format and content. They also mentioned something sad about the national broadcaster and Australian attitude. Thank you for the missing support.

I also thank all who have supported the programme through the above mentioned website. It seems that here in the wild west of Victoria three words not taught in the schools are: “Thanks” and “Cultural Heritage”. What's it like in the rest of the world?

Whilst on schooling: How many schools teach from an early age how to be parents, how to respect others, how to be a responsible citizen, how to abide by the democratic laws (And how many laws are democratically determined and not enacted through party edict, minority driven noise or dictatorship?). Isn't the first responsibility of each person to the human race not pelf?

Some festivals to go to this month:

Turning Wave At Yass this weekend 14th September
Uranquinty Folk Festival 28th September 


Next Week English Theme

Have a ffffolking good week.

A big thank you to Phyl Lobl for having diligently written songs of today to become tomorrow’s heritage and for having tried to get numbskulls recognise that our migrant’s musical heritage is as important to the country as their presence.
On a personal note, my thanks are extended to Phyl for permission to broadcast her songs together with her advices and prompt supply of her latest CD & book.

Australians this is your heritage. Achy Breaky ain’t unless you have fled your US homeland and come here to settle. Those who came to evangelise “Please go back and take your dog+ma with you”, we have enough of our own already.
