I'm very sleepy...

But am going to just write this message!

Quick update on all fronts i think (pause while i put some decent Abba on itunes...Super Trouper...TUNE!) on the veggie front...

Its NOT going well :( Seriously, if i fell off the wagon last week...this week, I've fallen off the wagon and have been run over by the wagon that was travelling behind me! The weekend, well I'll be honest, Saturday, the evening consisted of an Indian take-away, then Sunday, consisted of an Italian meal out. :( I have my excuses, first up, Sunday, was such a rubbish day with the weather, you know those day's where you cant go out anywhere cos its raining that badly. Well all day was spent in the house, and was driving myself and Vic to despair! So we went out, and going out meant dropping in to get some food, which i can honestly say i did enjoy, but it wasn't veggie. Saturday was the same story.

I know, I know! Its bad...very bad! I guess this thing about cutting meat out isn't that easy after, 27 years of eating the stuff, its so hard to just stop eating it over night...must try harder though, maybe i need encouragement or something, i don't know, or maybe i need one of those kicks up the arse that people keep going on about!

On other fronts, the old plastic bag thing is going strong, still none consumed, must be a good couple of months now of non plastic bag use, i have a new bag for life...a CO-OP one, which has replaced my aging and rather decrepit Sainsbury on.

We have now found out about CO-OP, basically...they RULE! The shop's are really good, not skanking, good quality goods, at good honest prices! But...the main thing is that all of their own brand stuff, is fair trade and organic, plus its bloody nice. Their instant coffee, which is cheaper than Sescafe, is about 10 times better, plus its fair trade! Aside from that, its just generally cooler than the other market grabbing supermarkets, plus in a recent survey they were voted the most green supermarket, ahead of places like M&S and Sainsbury's. Even their insurance office in Manchester is taking the lead with mini wind turbines on the roof which generates around 10% of the building's energy at the moment. So huuuuuuuuurah for CO-OP, now get out there and shop at one!

Now I'm dreaming of owning a place near the coast, i guess growing up near the coast, and being dragged on millions of boat trips when i was a weee lad has worn off on me, and now, i would just love to live right next to the sea so i can see all its moods and eat breakfast on the beach. Off course, living in a log cabin in the woods is still my ultimate, ultimate dream, but everyone has to have a back-up plan don't they?

Thanks again for the comments, keep them coming, they do provide encouragement and its ace seeing what you all think :)
