I am a long time supporter of the Green and Sustainable lifestyle. After being caught in the Boscastle floods in 2004, our family begun a journey to respect and promote the importance of Earth's fragile ecosystem, that focussed on reducing waste. Inspired by the beauty and resourcefulness of this wonderful planet, I have published numerous magazine articles on green issues and the author of four books.

(almost) zero waste packaging
I’m feeling a bit pleased with myself. You might remember that I don’t do artistry in any form. Making cards, knitting things, sewing, painting – I leave it all to the experts.
Monsieur Green says NO!
Today we popped into our local ‘Aladdin’s Cave’, which sells everything from seasonal decorations to bake ware, home DIY stuff, toys, cards; it’s just one of ‘those shops’; if you want it; they’ve probably got it somewhere.
