This is an edited version of our celebration and memorial for my wife Gill North who recently died from Mesothelioma. Friends and family added their words to mine, as we told her story, and that of the creation of Asbestos Awareness Australia (AAA). We monetized the stream to raise funds for AAA to allow us to continue Gills work. What a legacy!
The first part is an image montage, and tributes will commence at around 30 mins.
You can make a donation (tax deductible) via the charity web site, or using the payment platforms below. Every dollar goes towards the awareness campaign.
On the first day of 2022, we replay the recent A Current Affair segment (with permission) in which two days before she died, Gill North spoke about her battle with Mesothelioma, a cancer caused directly by exposure to Asbestos.
This is a stark warning to DIY renovators, property owners and renters to “THINK ASBESTOS”.
Please share this post with anyone considering any renovation or property related activity, we need to stop the 4,000 unnecessary deaths each year in Australia, and more elsewhere.
You can support the charity via the link above, or through these payment platforms. We are also monetizing the stream in support of AAA.

We look at the “property experts” view of the markets, which appears to be on the turn.
Domain published an interesting article before Christmas, looking in particular at the Sydney property market, saying its one for the record books. To which I respond, maybe, but for all the wrong reasons.
Sue Williams wrote: Space: the final frontier – or, for those in the Sydney property market over the past year, the financial frontier. For the biggest trend in pandemic-plagued 2021 has turned out to be the demand for more room in, and around, our homes.
“It’s really been the year when we re-imagined the space in our houses and apartments,” says Domain chief of research and economics Nicola Powell. “We wanted to have areas in our homes where we could work and, spending so much time indoors during lockdowns, we wanted more living space where we weren’t all on top of each other.
“That’s really driven a lot of the price growth of houses over that of apartments. But another big surprise of the year has been the price growth of three-bedroom units. Generally, the greater number of bedrooms, the more prices have risen.”
It’s been a strange year in so many ways. With rock-bottom interest rates continuing, no sooner did escalating property prices smash all previous records than they smashed them again three months later – with unprecedented back-to-back quarters of price rises over eight per cent. As first-home buyers flooded back into the market in 2020, they were suddenly washed back out again by the pricing tsunami, with investors diving in to take their place.
Many were only able to dip their toes in early in 2021 because of the bank of mum and dad.

This morning at 5:30am my beloved wife of 27 years Gill died from Mesothelioma. Its caused by Asbestos – one of ~4,000 who die each year from this cursed product in OZ. She devoted her last days to telling the Asbestos story and was excited to see the recent media coverage.
In her memory we launched a new website https://asbestosawarenessaustralia.com.au which features her research. AAA is a registered charity, founded by Gill to warn people of the risks. One third of property in OZ contains this product which kills over a life-time from one exposure.
She wanted her legacy to be no more unnecessary deaths, plus legal and political change to remove the risk from future generations. We will treasure you memory Gill, and continue your work….
