It's impossible to translate but that's the whole idea.<br /><br />Thank you for the links. I asked Mr Harvey, on Twitter the other day, who would be defining the land £ in his new land tax. He never replied.subrosahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00151702590329788260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8116690042850060767.post-50058516302337113942010-10-10T20:47:23.577+01:002010-10-10T20:47:23.577+01:00Thankfully no free sheets here to ponder over, and...Thankfully no free sheets here to ponder over, and it must be said, I thoroughly enjoyed my Sunday meal today, and not till now have I given the slightest consideration to ‘carbon emissions’, personal or otherwise.<br /><br />My carbon footprint for today’s meal, in fact probably for all my meals this year, is but a mere speck of soot in comparison to that of Lady Catherine Ashton’s little jolly to Mauritius (outlined in an earlier topic).<br /><br />Only once I see that the political classes and business executives are leading by example will I give consideration to my meagre individual carbon emissions. <br /><br />If there is an argument to be made for each of us reducing our individual carbon emissions, then 10:10 are failing miserably in getting that message across.<br />Currently, they are only succeeding in antagonising more than they are converting to their cause.<br />Time for them, and their sponsors, to have a serious re-think about the direction of 10:10’s current publicity material.JRBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01864418763227369458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8116690042850060767.post-62412742778095261682010-10-10T18:21:13.848+01:002010-10-10T18:21:13.848+01:00Have you ever tried looking up MSP expenses SR ? I...Have you ever tried looking up MSP expenses SR ? It's obviously set up to deter visitors. Numerous drop down selections and options instead of a straightforward page for each MSP. I was interested in Green MSP Patrick Harvie's recent '14,000 mile trip of a lifetime' to the USA.<br />He details some of it in his members interests bit but I gave up looking at the expenses. The US State Department covered his accommodation ( £5K for 3 weeks hotels - can't have been very green). He enjoyed other flights - Zambia etc. I don't know what he'll do if he manages to stop the deep sea drilling off Shetland. Maybe he can swim to Africa and America when oil drilling is banned.<br /><br />His 'green vision'..<br /><br />http://www.patrickharviemsp.com/green-vision/<br /><br />not for him of course - just for the proles who pay his wages.<br /><br />His MSP page...<br /><br />http://www.scottish.parliament.uk/msp/membersPages/patrick_harvie/index.htmRMcGeddonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01665173796157838927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8116690042850060767.post-64175235193026167662010-10-10T16:29:03.150+01:002010-10-10T16:29:03.150+01:00Those were the days ASE. ;) Campari and soda was ...Those were the days ASE. ;) Campari and soda was another favourite for summer Sunday lunches.subrosahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00151702590329788260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8116690042850060767.post-15254279594408801142010-10-10T16:28:15.859+01:002010-10-10T16:28:15.859+01:00I'm sure she'll be delighted to receive yo...I'm sure she'll be delighted to receive your contribution RM.

Bombay Sapphire for the gin, maybe, and that looks a scary amount of tonic (I'm guessing the other bottle is out of shot) but it's a splendid offering!All Seeing Eyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15671520010496394878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8116690042850060767.post-23869769818389043652010-10-10T14:39:50.705+01:002010-10-10T14:39:50.705+01:00Mmm.

Purple with yellow on top. I wonder if I should eat it for lunch. It must be very low in CO2 because there are no food miles and it grew without fertilisers or anything. I'll take a photo before eating in case I need the antidote to revive me.<br />I'll e mail Franny photos of the smokey fire and the mushroom. A sort of good and evil set of pics. Ying and yang. Like her flying to America to attend a save the planet conference sort of thing.RMcGeddonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01665173796157838927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8116690042850060767.post-10263786508843995542010-10-10T14:37:32.188+01:002010-10-10T14:37:32.188+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.RMcGeddonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01665173796157838927noreply@blogger.com
