Pour quoi frog?

Why frogs? Well, why not. These frogs are for Darcy, who has been in isolation in The Sydney Children's Hospital. If you want to follow Darcy's progress check out the journal updates here: www.caringbridge.org/visit/darcygilmour10/journal

If you want to make a frog you can find instructions at: http://www.savethefrogs.com/teachers/images/Origami-Jumping-Frog.pdf .

If frogs are beyond you, you can also give blood. Details of how available from the Australian Red Cross Blood Service.

Toad Wars - the emergence of an ally

Things were looking grim in the war between the frogs and the toads.
Despite the ocassional victory, the frog casualites were high.

Most frogs felt they were fighting a losing battle and some even contemplated raising the white flag of surrender. Others suggested they should sue for peace.



But one frog took it upon himself to seek advice from a well-known international spokesperson on matters of peace, security and governance ...




Coffee Annan.
(any resemblence to the former head of the UN is co-incidental. Well, a bit. Well, maybe not at all.).
Annan had long supported Demfrogracy over the Toads preferred forms of governance - Squattocracy (literary minded types can find out more here) and Dictoadorship.

His advice was simple: seek out allies who can help you overcome the toads of evil.

And so the Potatoes entered the fray!

And in pre-emptive reply to those who were expecting a Valentine's Day post, consider this one to be linked to the theme of  massacre rather than the commercialisation of lurve.
