Hi everyone. I have an amazing friend who is running Round the Bays on Sunday 17 February. She is doing this in honour of her mum and the amazing support she received after her disappearance.

She is looking to raise $500 for Victim Support and is half way there, but I reckon we could smash her target and get some great money for a fantastic service.

What do you reckon?
Can you help Susan??

Do you think plastic straw is not good for the environment, but paper straws will quickly become soggy in the water? Now there is a new type of straw, it is good for the environment, stay firm in the water, and with very reasonable price (even cheaper than paper straws).
