This week; Welcome to GR's 13th FunDrive show. Today me and long-suffering GR co-host, Victoria Street Newz publisher and CFUV Radio host of the Winds of Change show, Janine Bandcroft will blatherskyte and fulminate about the year(s) past and what it means to us, and you to have this wonderful community radio resource.
I'll also play streeters recorded over the weekend at the Ancient Forest Alliance manifestation to protect the province's forests, and a little music marking the seasons too.
But first, something upbeat to get your fingers in the mood for dialing and donatin' - or key-tapping to donate on-line at cfuv.uvic.ca for FunDrive.
Let's get it all started!
