The Last Stand

(Image: 'Save the Hunter Valley,' YouTube)


Fighting for our home, our children's home and their children's home ... the beautiful youtube clip above from the Hunter Thoroughbred Association (HTBA) will make you weep.

... and so far this PR fail is all the Minerals Council can come up with in answer to the stellar success of the HTBA's video!!! 

(a chink in Mineral Council's armour methinks?)

Out, out brief candle - last gasp for planet earth

Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow
Creeps in this petty place from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time.

And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death.

Out, out, brief candle!

Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more.

It is a tale told by an idiot,
Full of sound and fury
Signifying nothing.


(Act V, Sc V, Macbeth from Macbeth, William Shakespeare)
