Drain covers, again!<br /><br />We landed up at the People's Community Garden in Maidenhall in good time for their event and sat about eating and drinking to dispel the cold.<br /><br />You can see a few pics on Flickr:<br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/search/?mt=all&adv=1&w=25654955%40N03&q=ipswich+-states+-usa&m=text" rel="nofollow"><b>Bike Ride</b></a> For some reason we got tagged as in the USA.Greenflamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15848738523567641842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9118333144469641675.post-63415201371274784942009-04-20T01:19:00.000-07:002009-04-20T01:19:00.000-07:00This was an excellent post my friend - peace for a...This was an excellent post my friend - peace for allRuth Trowbridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02504906924681540699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9118333144469641675.post-86149451966954342002009-02-11T11:12:00.000-08:002009-02-11T11:12:00.000-08:00Hi GreenflameIt's a shame that the NICE car compan...Hi Greenflame<BR/>It's a shame that the NICE car company went into administration last December, but nevertheless this year the real electric car revolution is about to begin. I'm currently writing an essay for my MSc at the centre of alternative technology, and have calculated that if I had solar panels installed on 30+ square metres of my south facing roof, I could generate enough electricity a year for all the household needs and run a Pininfarina B0. The electricity wouldn't be generated evenly over the year, but by selling and buying back from the grid the net effect would be carbon neutrality. I'll post the full results on my blog when I finish my essay.<BR/><BR/>Cheers<BR/>CraigAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
