Society Shame, Please Slow Down and Look After One Another
What is happening to society? I must confess to being shocked by the total lack of chivalry in society when I rejoined the world of public transport this year.

At the same time I figured I may as well grow my own tomatoes and strawberries too, and this attempt led to an unexpected friendship with my elderly neighbour who didn’t speak English and I who didn’t speak Italian. What my neighbour didn’t know in English she made up for with food growing knowledge and kidness which she passed on to me. It was her influence that has led me down the path of empowering others to grow their own food.
