Real easy, Boris. Volunteer in your community to make it a better place(or even better, get a group together to do it). Clean-up projects in town, shopping for elderly or sick people that can't get out, coaching sports, etc. Anything you can think of that would make Skopje a better place. Big thing is you need to give your time freely. :D

G'Day, Vol has talked me into it, she'll be washing up for the next week and making me Vegemite sandwiches :D

I'd be happy to add my volunteer hours to this project.
Welcome! :)

Fair warning, since Lodie and I figured out a while back that we're Scottish Clan Cousins, I may occasionally refer to you as "Aunt Mother Vol" or similar :P

That would be lovely :D It is nice to be talking to someone I have seen photos of, it's not as weird. I have never posted on forums before.

Clock me up for 8 hours today :23:

Meow! Welcome to TrekUnited, Mother Vol! This is funny, mother and daughter united on TrekUnited. I'm Eris, the only active Swiss member right now, and I'm the resident Vorta, so if you need any Dominion related information, I'm your gurl. And if you need anything about Switzerland, I'm also your gurl. :lol:

Plus that'd be weird to refer to both a mother and daughter as my cousins.

Well, we've got a nice little group here, Auntie. Most of us are crazy, but in a good way :)

As long as you're not making a profit from it, sure--just tell us how many hours you spend on that! :)

Well, some people are paid personal shoppers, I was just checking.

Hmm...I just realized I don't know much about Macedonia...can you recommend an appropriate color for your country's slice of the pie chart?

You are choosing colours to suit countries? Why is Australia a horrible sandy colour then? Just for the record, our national colours are green and gold ;)

Yeah Aunty is probably better :P

Sandy color was the first thing I thought of from the pictures and movies and stuff I've seen with Australia in them...I could mess with it next time, I guess. Roughly what shade of green would be appropriate?

Well there is no set shade of green, but here's the boxing Kangaroo flag which people like here, it's in the right colours:

Go Mum! :clap:

I'm going to be going away tomorrow, so we've arranged it that at the end of each week, my mum will SMS me her hours for the week and I'll post what she has done here. Until I get back home and she'll post them herself again :)
