Perhaps we could get an award winning and high profile chef like Cyrus Todiwala of Cafe Spice Namaste to make a start on this. Good point made by Seajay.

It will come to pass.

He was pictured yesterday planting no doubt the first of many trees he plans for tree deprived areas of London. I also noticed whilst travelling across London yesterday that the roads were less congested than usual. Is this another example of the Boris effect or the fact it was lunchtime?

I'm sure other Considerate hoteliers would like to sponsor you, whether as a tree or simply as a Considerate runner - do remind us all nearer the time!

Now that's a sustainable animal that lives for hundreds of years, ugly but you cannot have everything. Being Green does not have to be complicated, it should just be common sense and respect for other people and your surroundings. We need to be ever conscious of our surroundings and try to ensure that we don't mess up the world too much for the next generation.

Delighted to hear that although Hamish might not exactly be alive and well he is being treated with all due respect in his retirement. Dare I say it touches the cockles of your heart - no sarcasm intended. Alison, many thanks.
