IDEAS TO BE WORKED ON DURING THE COMING YEAR

This is a list of ideas following on from the audit I made which we can work towards during the next 3-9 months.

1. Get the greenhouse erected and start growing some salad foods for the summer.

2. Continue scavenging/beachcombing wood so that again next winter we will not have to purchase any.

3. Continue de-cluttering, have made a start but got a little side-tracked ; Jackie is my inspiration for this.

4. Continue to monitor the amount of rubbish we put out for landfill, and try to reduce this as much as is possible.

5. Write every 6 months to both the Local and County Councils and MP about the lack of certain recycling facilities in our area (may just get fed up of receiving the letters and actually do something).

6. Continue to use the car in cumlative journeys rather than lots of little trips.

  1. that counter at the top of the page for the plastic bags is really scary. i'm glad im doing my bit by using reuseable bags instead

    Haha, that is good. This reminds me of The Shawshank Redemption, when I think Andy writes every single days requesting funding for the library until they get sick of his letters and grant his request. Hey, if it's the only way to get something changed, then it's gotta be done!
