This was a great event.
This morning in Woolgoolga NSW, around 100 people came together to learn about the referendum.
There was overwhelming support for ‘Yes’.
I also met Gumbaynggirr Elders & long time ally & friend, Jack Thompson. @troycassardaley, it was lovely to meet some of your family brother!

Flashback to 2004. Donkey John was a Flash version of a certain game and watch game I built with @JBD101 and Tom Spiers. Last chance to play before Flash dies this year. One of my all time favourite projects. kahocheung.com/donkeyjohn #ripflash

Any #BookClubs looking for a good cause to support?
