So many wonderful inventions were born out of the CSIRO.

Sportwool is one. I did a little research after reading the death notice of Dr Barry Holcombe who played a major part in its invention.

So many cyclists would be wearing his SPORTWOOL today, and clothing like lightweight merino that is machine washable.

Vale Barry - and thank you!

I am a passionate recycler so I thought i would recycle this article on what to do with clothes that are beyond op shop donation. It's from Better Homes and Gardens.

A lot of clothes sent to opp shops, can't be sold and will end up in landfill. Here are some great recycling programs for your unsellable clothes.
