Greetings from Chester / South Shields, England
Hello!
Decided to join the forum after purchasing the rather ace self-sufficient-ish bible! I'm an MA student currently living in Chester, North West England, but originally from South Shields, North East England! I'm here to talk to like-minded people and get more involved with all things of the environmentally conscious nature and other fun and creative topics! My slightly limited 'self-sufficient-ish CV' so far includes a thoroughly inspirational visit to the CAT centre in Wales and an involvement with a People&Planet group in uni, part of which involves an allotment we have literally just gotten our hands on. Apart from that I consider myself pretty well read on Climate Change, resource depletion and self-sufficiency etc and have a strong interest in things like Transition Towns and community energy and parcipatory economics. Of course, I also have a social life and I love watching live music and going to the pub as well as other things I won't bore you with! Mainly, I'm here to meet people and do my bit to help =)

Hi there and welocme
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!
