Concrete Playground

Did you know that aluminium can be recycled into infinity? No wonder it has the sheen of space years about it. And that Tetra Paks are mostly made from cardboard (with only wee little prophylactic layers to protect them from sprouting mould offspring)? Ahh, recycling, who would’ve guessed that all those crazy dumpster divers were actually diving deep for thrills.

This year’s National Recycling Week is certainly full of them; the Big Aussie Swap Party (no, not your spouse) will take place simultaneously across Australia on Tuesday Nov 10th, or else you can host your own.

The Friday File Fling is also unfortunately not about your not-spouse, but about ditching those dossiers that would make even data-junkies weep. There’s plenty more — but I don’t want to waste words when I need them to write to America about why they pronounce ‘aluminium’ funny.
