The major incentive for this break from home life was our sassy colleague, Nanna Kerry. She had become increasingly restive. She was sick of being in COVID isolation and had been loudly demanding an outing. She was also very anxious to show her support for all those Nannas as well as the thousands in the west who are opposing Santos' plans for the Narrabri Gas Project which is now being considered by the NSW Independent Planning Commission as the final part of the approval process.
So we visited a small park by the river overlooking Susan Island. Nanna Kerry was delighted to be in the fresh air - and she loves the Clarence River. She wasn't too happy about the face mask but she reluctantly agreed to being a good example to Nannas and others during this health crisis. And she loved Lynette's "I stand for the Pilliga" face frame.
