The Grafton Nannas were pleased to meet with Greens candidate Janet Cavanaugh at their knit-in on Tuesday March 3. Janet has a wealth of knowledge about the gas industry as she has been a CSG campaigner ever since the industry reared its ugly head in our area. She played a prominent part in the many information sessions which the Clarence Alliance Against CSG conducted around the Clarence Valley some years ago and she continues to be a strong campaigner against this invasive industry.

A happy bunch of Nannas with candidate Janet Cavanaugh. |
The Nannas were also eagerly discussing their upcoming Nanna Conference. They viewed the presentation Lynette has put together of the Grafton Loop's two plus years of campaigning, a presentation our Nannas are taking to Lismore for the conference.

And we welcomed Jay who filmed Dorothy's reading of her Nanna poems. And a great job he's done in recording the two poems. The most recent of these poems is a celebration of the Grafton Loop's birthday. And Dorothy's reading of this will form part of our presentation at the conference.
