So are you able to share Liz Clarke's email address or contact details with us Lisa ? From the looks of the number of pages this topic is up to a lot of members would like to express their opinion to herLiz Clarke e.a. (see p. 1 above) are not required to reply to our questions. Therefore it is no use to ask them. But we can write to her, to state our reservations in an objective way. I did and I am far from the only one.
Bonsai matters a lot to us, and the NBPCA matters to thousands more. Let the decision makers in the P.S. be aware of it and not bypass those on whom success depends to a high degree.

Re: Position Vacant - Assistant Curator NBPCA
Im thinking the biggest danger to the trees at the collection these days are the busses of children that visit each day. You would need a riot squad to keep them safe from my kids school
It's too bad your in such a hurry cause the stories I could tell you, Bushels and baskets of stories, hole crates full of stories. But if you can spare a moment I will tell you one story.

I am not really sure of the standing of posting a third parties email address to the forum so if you want to email liz.clarke then here is the first bit of it from lisaLLK wrote:I sent my letter to Liz to this address: firstname.lastname @ act.gov.au and it has not bounced.
