Thanks for this Lisa and David
I’ve just had a phone call from a friend asking about the shack.
Speaking of which, when we lived quite close to Trinity Hills [one of your links], but before the church was established, we heard crow-eaters talking about their shacks, which we took to be dilapidated buildings, but discovered it was pie-floater-eater talk for “holiday house” and probably more respectable than the only one we had to live in.
Hi Kevin
Typed in “shack australain tour” and got this:
Did you mean Shack Australian tour?

Reckon I’d be hoping supper is too.
A Day at the Shack :
Georges River Community Baptist Church presents “A Day at the Shack” Saturday November 29th from 2pm to 9pm. This exploration of “The Shack,” William P. Young’s novel, including its themes of heartbreak and intimacy with God, will feature worship and lectures.
Bit too late notice for us to get involved - but it sounds fascinating. If anyone attends, could they post some feedback here ? Thanks.
Sorry, I shoudn’t just assume that everyone is on Koorong’s mailing list and would have seen the flyer! Yup, today at Lugarno. The tour is sponsored by Koorong.
IReceently was “upsold” The shak (is that the right word when you are sold something that you didn’t ask for, but was assured it was the newest new rave) when I bought another book at Koorong. But haven’t read it yet, and wonder if I will. I won’t be upsold anything else either, from there, without a good scrutiny first.

Hi Gill,
I think it is described in marketing terms as an ‘add on’ - like when you buy a shirt and they suggest “a tie to go with it” - or as in “would you like fries with that ?” Obviously, McKoorong are now right into that too ;)
