The envirofascists are out in full force, and this time, they have St Valentine’s Day bouquets in their sights.
Latest Government figures show that the flowers that make up the average bunch have flown 33,800 miles to reach Britain. …
Environmentalists warned that “flower miles” could have serious implications on climate change in terms of carbon dioxide emissions from aeroplanes.
Some official from the Friends of the Earth feels it would be better if we grew our own, rather than depending on those from Kenya and other far-flung places. Oh, leave us alone, will you?

Bel … you have to be kidding. These tree huggers need to get a job. I understand keeping companies from dumping waste into our water supply, but this is getting ridiculous!!! Just remember … Save a tree - eat a beaver!

“Save a tree - eat a beaver!”
That made me smile.

Enviro-facism is going to come horribly unstuck one of these days as the watermelon nature of the zealots is becoming all too apparent.

Another one of those days which benefits only card manufacturers and the gift industry.
Valentine’s day versus the greenie brigade.
Which do I despise least?
Hmmmm.

Not too bad, just had quite a busy weekend. Today is my first day on the net since Thursday.
Think I might have mentioned your blog at a party actually. I have no idea how it come up.
