Fordicia-day and first blog

I thought it was about time I got on this wagon as well. I had a go at blogging a few years ago, without success. This time will be different!
It was fordicia-day today, April 15, and I had invited a bunch of kids over to do their bit for the environment by decorating beautiful calico bags to use instead of plastic shopping bags. When I asked them what happened to many of the plastic bags, they were quick to tell me about bags ending up in the sea, and animals mistaking them for food, and eating them, and consequently getting sick or dying. That made a biologist and conservationist very pleased indead. There is hope for this world!
I also officially unveiled the 'Villa fordicia" sign that my father-in-law made, and celebrated that at least the outside of this beautiful cabin 'down the back' is done.
Oh, and I also made a fordicia facebook page, thought I might as well do it all in one go... but no twitter yet, I think I've done quite well though, keeping up with the times... :)
