Yesterday I went up to Wollombi with some chums to get a little afternoon mud brick education. It was a massively stressful day and I felt like I almost died, but the mud bricks were so beautiful that they made up for it. I really want to build a mud brick house now. Any remaining doubts I had have been swept away.

I have a thin book on basic Chinese and Tibetan-styles of mud brick building and detailed “how to” instructions that you’re welcome to borrow. My friend, Ang, rescued it for me from her friend who was doing a giant bookshelf spring clean. Ang is wonderful with random “just because” gifts like that. On another occasion when we met to see a movie she gave me a giant zucchini (it was literally about a foot long and 10cm in diameter, and was a main ingredient in three separate meals before it was all gone) and dozens of delicious tomatoes of different sizes, all from her garden. That’s what the world needs more of: homegrown and bin-rescued “just because” gift giving.

That would be great. They probably know stacks about mud brick houses. The Chinese have probably been making them for even longer than my friend in Wollombi.
