Manaaki said in highly cynical tones, "I don't want to listen to some dumb speech about how to save the world".
I still felt some stirrings of emotion as the small crowd rounded the corners of the square with some lacklustre chants of "Solutions not pollution!" and "Solar power to the people!".
We missed the speeches as I had to make good on my bribe of frozen yoghurt at the mall.
In other news, M did not get the job we were hoping for in the US. We have revised our plans. Coming into Summer here it is so beautiful in the backyard. We would be paying twice what we pay here if we lived in Ventura and we would be in a tiny appartment. Not to mention the stress and expense of moving and renting out our house and setting up in a new place.
So the new plan is that I will earn some money next year and we will save up and have an extended holiday in California. Now let the money making commence!
