attempting abandonment: Lend me some sugar...
http://lucyar.blogspot.com/2008/09/lend-me-some-sugar.html
Lend me some sugar. On Saturday we ventured to Tearfund's Whose My Neighbour? This is one of my favourite gems as he speaks to that place we go to when faced with hard calls, safety. If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality. Posted by lucy ar. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Stevo Speaks: October 2006
http://stevospeaks.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
West Country folk have opinions too. Monday, October 30, 2006. Concerning things you wished you'd said but didn't. Think of until too late. I started thinking about the great replies that were thought of in good time. Two great replies (probably not new to you) that would have made me very proud to utter. After being asked what he thought about Western civilisation, Gandhi. Replied that he thought "It was a good idea". Second favourite, and probably the most well known:. Posted by Stevo at 5:49 pm.

Stevo Speaks: August 2006
http://stevospeaks.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
West Country folk have opinions too. Thursday, August 31, 2006. Im not referring to some of the classic televisual treats available that you might expect. But to the West Wing. Just started watching the whole lot again for the umpteenth (feel like my Gran saying that) time, is it really that good, or do i just have too much time on my hands? Either way, i'm watching and enjoying even laughing at the old jokes i know so well. Posted by Stevo at 8:58 pm. Links to this post. Thursday, August 24, 2006. It fu...

attempting abandonment: Got Worms
http://lucyar.blogspot.com/2008/10/got-worms.html
2000 of them, in our laundry room. They are our pets, they all have names beginning with W (but we don't know them all yet.). It is our latest experiment in urban low carbon living. It is pretty gross. They are new- they arrived through Royal Mail yesterday- and seem to be in their escaping stage (I had to google it after we arrived downstairs this morning to find one wandering around our candy floss machine.). They eat our tea bags and other waste. And turn it into goodness for our herbs.

attempting abandonment: addicted to oil
http://lucyar.blogspot.com/2008/08/addicted-to-oil.html
This is a fab little video from Good mag. You know, I really dislike glad wrap/ cling film. I really do think our grandchildren one day will look at us in disbelief and say "You used up the oil to wrap up your. As Good magazine say "if we're addicted to oil, our twelve-step program should begin with admitting that we have a problem.". Posted by lucy ar. They may also question why we didn't just teleport down there or use hovercars like they will soon. Yes, true, true. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

attempting abandonment: just a spoonful of hope
http://lucyar.blogspot.com/2008/08/just-spoonful-of-hope.html
Just a spoonful of hope. I have been thinking about hope. It seems in the last week there has been an incident or a story almost everyday that has given me hope and restored my faith in people and God. I reckon it is vital that we make a thing of these things. otherwise the stealthy ink of despondence can just seep on in. Here is a performance of Gabriel and the Vagabond:. Posted by lucy ar. Amazing song, just knew you'd appreciate him. x. May hope guide us always. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

attempting abandonment: Power to the People
http://lucyar.blogspot.com/2008/10/power-to-people.html
Power to the People. I went to the Climate Rush on parliament the other week, it was planned on the anniversary of the suffragettes rush on parliament. I was monumentally hit by the absolute urgency of us reducing our emissions. It is literally a case of now or never. There was a great little article on the BBC website yesterday about the importance of communities in the fight against climate change. Check it out here. How can we harness this huge potential? Oh and you must check out:. Posted by lucy ar.

attempting abandonment: Christmas comes to soon...
http://lucyar.blogspot.com/2008/09/christmas-comes-to-soon.html
Christmas comes to soon. BHS on Oxford St has already got it's first Christmas window. waah. However, I canny talk. I have been investing a lot of time on Christmas already. See, every year I despair that Christmas is such an extravaganza of materialism, stress and consumerism, it is truly season of worshiping mammon. So this year I am mobilising early to compete with this! From now on. Please list it! Can you build a movement? Posted by lucy ar. How are you both? Fancy a dinner date one night soon?

http://lucyar.blogspot.com/2008/08/olympics-are-fun.html
The Olympics are fun. I really just got into the mixed badminton doubles, punching the air woot woot, thinking it was the finals. Really it was just a little heat (and Badminton? But thrilling it was. So the Olympics are fun and all that, but lest we forget. You can follow the Gadfly project at this blog. A voice for the persecuted of China.
