MS Megaswim
For those of you that can swim or paddle up and down, there is a megaswim at Macquarie Uni in November, and the MS team will be there as usual. Early heads up so you can get some practice if you feel like joining in- you don't have to swim for 24 hours, and if you have MS you can be towed along or use flippers. It is a great day out, with barbecue and lots of friendly banter.

NSW energy cooling rebate UPDATE
Hi all,
Just wanted to give people an update on some issues with the NSW cooling rebate and also ask for those receiving it to please let us know which suppliers are adhering to it.
I'm with Integral Energy and found out last week that my rebate hadn't gone through. I was a tad annoyed as I had to make 3 or 4 calls to them just to get my forms sent out.
