  • If I may just set the scene.... I'd like to think that I am beyond consumerism, but the truth is that I still have a weakness when it comes to clothes. When it comes to cosmetics (which I don't buy many of anyway), I always buy ethical and never anything that has been tested on animals. When it comes to food, I buy ethical. I don't care much... more

  • The tickets for the 2009 Glastonbury festival went on sale at 9AM this morning. As I expected, the ticket-selling site is completely inundated and can’t cope.  The same thing happens every year, and every year they promise to make it better next time. I think the problem is compounded by the fact that it has now become The Festival To... more

  • Today has definitely been warm coat and hat weather. The umbrella was in the bag unused. It was wet but too windy to use the umbrella, I'd have probably ended up like Mary Poppins rising high into the sky, while holding onto it. In deference to the change of season, I wore a scarf. I am glad I did. The sleeves on my coat were long enough to... more

  • What a nice word the Guardian has coined--Thriftysomething. Here are some more timely tips for saving cash as the economy slide further into oblivion thanks to the greedy so-and-sos that inhabit (or used to) Wall Street and The City. In worm news, they are thriving. They sure like to eat old bread, tea bags and broccoli bits. I've been trying to... more

  • I keep getting a sales call at work from a company that tell me they can offer a better rate and service for us, than the company we are currently using to supply our water cooler. This has got me thinking... but not about changing companies, rather abandoning it altogether! Now that I stop to think about, having a water cooler at work isn't... more

  • Following on from my lovely milkman's belief that I am brimming with youth and vitality our 2 pints arrived overnight. The last time I had milk delivered it had a bright silver top; today's lids glisten like emeralds on the breakfast table. What a cheery way to start the day! Evidently, it is a green day. We left the house for school to find the... more

  • DAY 16 Today I have just bought food. We took our recycling to the collection point in town today; someone had dumped what looked like their carboot leftovers, there was a book on tropical fish; a bit soggy, but still good, my bf is drying it out, he is really pleased with it! I found a plant pot and matching base, which is perfect for my... more
