Festivals and elections

See the Google News? Tregear Festival is on August 30, usual place, corner of Aurora and Wilkes. I usually get up there for it, usually manage to find something interesting. The other news item is the Blacktown Council election on September 13. Not half as interesting as the festival. Except for the info that there is 62 people running for 15 spots!! That's going to make voting ... ummm ... "oh great" was the comment I heard. Not as bad as Penrith: 83 for 15 spots. Gee. The festival is going to be a lot more fun!

Even the weather is more fun than that. Still cold in the mornings and if there's a breeze it's too cool without a jacket during the day. Light frost when I took the dog out this morning. Very clean air tho, smells very good the last few days. Except for St Marys station - one of the industrial places across the road was pumping out burnt plastic smell today. It's not as bad as the rotten onion body odour smell, but it's probably more toxic.
