Spot on Tim!
Most of our meat is local, ordered before the animal is slaughtered. We choose chickens while they are still running around :lol: Our fruit and veg comes from the local farmers market where we know the farmers by name. Heck, even the beer I drink is brewed in the local town!
Whats best of all is that is all tastes better than the supermarket rubbish and, contrary to popular belief, it's cheaper too. And it polutes less because of the shorter journeys it makes in the back of a truck.
As James rightly says, people need to sort out their own bad ways before they start laying into others.
BRO:
The whole global warming thing is just a red-herring to divert our attention from other political matters!
96.5 % of all CO2 produced in the world is natural - that leaves 3.5% of the total shared between 6 billion people on this planet - some contribute a greater share than others obviously ;) but really what is the point of being upset beacause some one else drives a vehicle that uses 50% more fuel per mile than yours does...
I just don't understand it! :roll:

i read somewhere that the official urban fuel figure for a discovery (30tdi i think) was 24.9mpg
the official urban fuel figure for a Mini Cooper 24.3 mpg
if this is true (can anybody confirm)
then they should stop attacking Land Rover and start on BMW,
i would hate to think what their larger cars do around town

interesting many sports cars are less economical and a lot faster than the Discovery
trouble is 4x4's are more visable
