For those who missed it, including all my international readers, here is the 1 min 48 second news spot I had on the telly last night.
You can read the article they wrote here; http://au.news.yahoo.com/vic/a/21907658/help-to-reduce-your-cost-of-living/
I had a great time during the interview, which actually went for about 50 minutes, and there was a full tour of the garden as well that took about another hour. Not to worry that they didn’t show more, as they did capture the essence of how we live.
So, enjoy the video!

What did you think of the news spot?

Hi Gav,
that was super! Hopefully the message will reach many more people. I think the mention of speeding up the mortgage will get many inspired to give it a go – well done 🙂
have a great day,
Madeleine.x
Gavin Webber says
Thanks Madeleine. I do think that was a good idea to pitch it at the money savings side of things.
Saving money talks!

Awesome! I always worry about how journos will cut and paste together but I think they’ve put together a great news spot which will attract many people to giving it a go. Well done you and well done Channel 7 too. 🙂
Gavin Webber says
Well Jessie, that is something I have yet to encounter. All the journos I have met are nice people, trying to tell an honest story. Jackie Quist was a very nice lady.
I suppose it does matter what you say in their company of course.XD

Great story and I’m sure it will get more people doing *something* and that can only be good.

Great story thanks for sharing that. I think they got the essence of it and congratulations – your place looks fabulous, and that pumpkin was awesome!

Gillian, after all these years of replying to your comments on blogger as AA, I finally know your name!
BTW, it is indeed an awesome pumpkin.

I missed it on the night (I don’t watch commercial TV), so thanks for repeating it here. Awesome! So pleased for you and all of us trying to spread the message. They couldn’t have picked a better Greenie! Nothing about making cheese! We’ve gotta push for a full-scale GoG documentary!
Gavin Webber says
Hey fns! I wonder if I could make the doco myself? Maybe via crowdfunding? What do you think? Would anyone watch it?
Michael says
A great Good News story.
Well done Gav.
