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 - once more unto the breach dear friends

Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;
Or close the wall up with our Potato mash.
In peace there's nothing so becomes a frog
As modest stillness and humility:
But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
Then imitate the action of the tiger-frog;
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the cold-blood…
Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
Cry 'God for Tadpoles, Tatties, and Saint Frog!'
