Thanks Lee. Our very chatty table is now out on the corner. Next time you’re meeting up with someone and are not sure what to talk about or where to go … pop past ACC … our table might be the perfect place!

This week we published two more Covid Roulette stories … including from Steve who was mid symptoms when he was interviewed and the second from Mubarek (part 2 of his story) … talking about getting married overseas … and catching Covid himself whilst in Eritrea. Tony also talked to Shaykh Mohammad Ramzan about the various interruptions to weddings many have experienced over the last few years as part of this episode.

Coming up this week we’ve got Sally Rippin, an author who I am sure many of you with children will know. She’s been experiencing long-Covid symptoms poor thing …

We’re really pleased to be documenting these local stories for posterity and we hope you are enjoying hearing them too.

We were a bit sad to see that someone had damaged our seed library a few weeks ago … but super pleased to have Corrado and Max on the job on Friday to cut some new Perspex and repair the door for us.

Thanks!

Look at this gorgeous knitting that came from St Michael’s in North Carlton for the ASRC this week.

Did you know we are a collection location for the ASRC? We’re very pleased to be able to help out by providing a local point for dropping off food and material relief … and to witness firsthand the kindness and generosity of our community.

What IS the first thing you think about in the morning? This week we started a new community art project with the sander and dremel … engraving some conversation starters in our timber tables that live out on the front corner.

Keep an eye out for the finished product coming soon … and perhaps trial our questions next time you sit down there for a morning coffee or bike riding break …
