Editor's Note for August

A Few Scraps Of ‘Flotsam And Jetsam’!
I have seen a lot of people lately, when driving around, tossing rubbish out of their windows! Very ‘dross’, shows little or no respect for not only the environment but the whole look of the place! Makes you wonder if the same happens at home - probably not - but if there is a desire to surround oneself with rubbish - take heed of a quote by Actor Richard Burton “If you’re going to make rubbish, be the best rubbish in it.” (Hopefully the company becomes tiresome (quite ‘litter’-ally speaking) and a bit of a clear out happens - I ‘refuse’ to believe otherwise, lol!)
Talking a little further about rubbish, I discovered an apt quote by Auberon Waugh (An English journalist and novelist, aka ‘Bron’): “Generally speaking, the best people nowadays go into journalism, the second best into business, the rubbish into politics, and the sh*ts into law.” Well there you have it, three out of four ain’t ‘garbage’ I say, haha.
Before we become hooked on an ‘endless appetite for rubbish’, let’s ‘bin it’ there and hope this hasn’t been a complete ‘waste’!
Here’s hoping everyone has a great Ekka time - be it attending, enjoying a day off, generally supporting our farmers, or just delighting in the fact that people, especially kids, can have a nice time visiting the show - I know I will! See you next month.

Best Wishes Kerri
