Hey guys,
Great podcast. The soup / salt, funding and education discussions were all great topics. Bob you might interested to know that percentage of people describing themselves as Christians with no denominational affiliation is increasing in the census. The charity is always struggling with funding and it drives me nuts. Finally I’ve always been a big supporter of public education but now I have a child I’m thinking otherwise. At a recent meeting involving people talking about presenting to the local high school presenters were warned not to use power point presentations with words as most the students (year 11s) don’t really read. I guess I’m not keen to send my child to a school where this is the dominant culture. Michaela, I still think the wikki is a good thing, if not just that if someone says its “it’s too hard to get involved, I don’t know what to do” we can say it’s not hard just use the wikki!
Great to hear you both back. Thanks for the show!

Thanks for the great constructive comments Chris. We have been quite irregular in our schedule of podcasts recently because I have been sick, and then I’ve been flat hunting and moved house on Wednesday. I would have got Cam to fill in but he’s been away. I hope to get another show out to you all next week.

Guys, sorry to be a pain, but I can’t seem to listen to or download this podcast - but I can with the others. Is there a glitch or is it me?
