Earth Hour

8.30pm (2030) Saturday 27 March is Earth Hour – an opportunity to express your solidarity with the environment. No matter that Copenhagen was not what so many had hoped for, no matter that no everyone has been as open as they should have been… the climate IS changing.

Earth Hour gives us all the chance to send a message and spread the word – we are concerned, we will do our bit, and we want others to join in.

Just turning the lights out for an hour just might be fun, as well as sending the message. Have a candle-lit party, involve your friends and family. And sign up.

If your church if flood-lit, this is a good opportunity to turn it off for an hour – and to consider reducing the time it is on throughout the year.

    Someone has pulled a fish from a river with the head of a Roach, the body of a Goldfish and the tail-fin of a Bream. This being the result of inter-breeding going on beneath the waves. No wonder perhaps, when one learns that this particular water flows through East Anglia. ‘If I can catch another like this I can name them, ‘Duelling Banjos’

  • The Butler Did It (allegedly) May 29, 2012
    A well-worn phrase in ‘Murder Mysery’ circles where posh talking geezers and ladies with long cigarette holders sit on sofas whilst a fat Belgian or English old lady explains at great length who has ‘killed’ the geezer who has spent the last two hours laying down on the stage with a dummy knife in his back. Obviously this phrase isn’t that well-known in Vati […]
