"More goats, toilets & women’s self-help groups than ever"

You have to love an email message with that subject line. It's from the Australian aid agency TEAR, promoting 'Arguably the World's Most Useful Gift Catalogue'. At last, an answer to the problem of what to give the person who has everything! :-)

Many years ago a friend bought us a goat for Christmas and I thought it was the most wonderful idea. Last year my son's father bought us Literacy classes, his brother a goat, and his stepmother a midwifery kit (she's a nurse).

The only thing that's missing is a photo or story from the people that received the items. I wish I could have that.

That's fantastic.

As a recipient (of sorts) of a birthday gift from this catalogue, I am very grateful. Thanks Kate on behalf of whoever you have provided with an education. It seems I was worth being born after all.

Mwa!
