.... random rants and rambles. no agenda. yet.

(And no, I don't mean you, my lovely blog readers - if you're reading this, you're most probably 'over it' anyway; if you're not, you should be! - it's Stonewall's new campaign to beat homophobic bullying in schools, and very fine, it is too. I was touched to read the many MySpace comments from gay teens... which also made me feel old, but then again, many things do.

So anyway, I was impressed and wanted to share that. After all, under my many layers, I am gay too.)

Also in the spirit of sharing, I'm thinking about ways to become more carbon neutral... and before anyone rolls their eyes and mutters under their breath (that'd be you, KL!), it basically means that I'm thinking about planting some trees. So if you would like a tree for Christmas - instead of a wrapped up pressie - let me know. If you wouldn't, that's fine too.

I've also subscribed to The Nag, which does exactly what it says on the tin, and nags you. More specifically, if you sign up, it will send you emails about being greener (once a month, I think - I've not had mine yet!) which can't hurt, can it?! So if you want to do the lazy thing and have someone tell you what to do, sign up too ... and let me know if you do so that we can compare notes... or should that be nags!?

In other green news, I was delighted and somewhat surprised that Londoners are thinking about copying little old Hebden Bridge and doing away with plastic bags. Now, that would be cool.

I realise this is probably a rather preachy and boring post - I didn't mean it to be, honest, was just clearing my inbox/various crevices of my brain - so if you have made it this far, you are rewarded with this word game link.... kind of a weird idea but I guess it can't do any harm... and it's addictive!

So anyway, have a great weekend. Or, if you read this on Monday morning when you're sitting sleepily at your desk and wishing you weren't, try not to play the rice game alllllll day.
