Victorian Bushfires

I think most of you, by now would have heard about the devastating bush fires in South eastern Australia. There are nearly 200 people dead, thousands made homeless, hundreds of houses have been destroyed, thousands of acres of bushland has been burnt, and it's still going. Not all of the burnt out houses haven't even been checked for bodies yet, and many haven't yet been identified, many people can't get back to their houses to see if they're still standing. This has been the worst couple of days for Victorians ever.

Please give to the charities to help these devastated people and communities.

You can give to the red cross at http://www.redcross.org.au

How to wear an ear cuff
How to wear an ear cuff photo for-animation-1.gif


Start at the top of the ear where the ear is thinner. Slide the cuff downwards over the cartilage, while turning it towards the front.

The cuff will sit from the outside of the ear, and over both sections of cartilage on the middle part of your ear.

Squeeze the ring section slightly, if necessary to get a snug fit.  This is only necessary before the first use.
