A Doctor writes…

… Dr Pack that is.

Mark Pack has said some nice things about my new website.

As Mark is a bit of an expert on these things, I am very touched. Big thanks go to my own www trio: Will Howells who helped me with the new design, WordPress for hosting, and Alison Wheeler who has helped keep my web show on the road for years.

You can also follow my doings on this blog and on the Islington Lib Dem website.

An offer I can refuse….

An email arrives.

Apparently I can own the domain “mybridgetsexkitten.com” for just $15 a year – what a bargain!

Having consulted an unrepresentative sample of my campaign team (partner Richard – derisory snort; cat Percy – disdainful stare) I think the answer must be no.

We are still considering myfatcatpercy.com however.

One Hundred Months

I’ve just signed up to the website One Hundred Months which provides a monthly action on helping tackle climate change.

Backed by organisations including Greenpeace and Operation Noah, it’s based on the premise that even using cautious calculations, we have only one hundred months before we pass the climate’s ‘tipping point’ – the point of no return – where the chance to tackle global warming could be far beyond our reach.

The project aims to provide one simple thing, once a month, that we can all do to play our part in preventing potentially catastrophic, runaway global warming.

The first action is to invite others to join: so please do……

Best foot forward

walkit1I’ve been trying out a great new website Walkit, which helps you plan your walking routes around London (thanks to David Hepworth for the tip).

The TfL journeyplanner is great for public transport routes, but its walking routes are, well, a bit pedestrian. With Walkit you have the option of a quiet route not just the most direct but rather boring one. Walkit also has the bonus of giving you a range of estimated times (depending on your speed), so you need never be late again. And it tells you how much CO2 you’ll save and how many calories you’ll burn up. I’ve checked some of my regular destinations on Walkit and it’s either come up with my favourite route or suggested a better one, so I’ll definitely be using the site in future.

Maybe it could even help the Home Secretary get out of her limo and walk round London after all.
