The popcorn that Christie made was the dogs bollocks. But no one bought any, so we ended up giving it away. I'll try again next week. But if there isn't much of a market, then perhaps buying an expensive machine isn't going to be worthwhile. But if the machine was cheap, or if we stick with the pan ...

Popcorn on Monday (4/12)
I was talking to one of the volunteers today - Christie - and she gave me her recipe for popcorn. It is 1/3 cup of kernels to 3 table spoons of oil. This never fails, apparently. We can try it on Monday to see how much of a market there is. I'm night managing on Monday, but I also have to pop down t...

You can make popcorn in a pot. I believe it was done like this before microwaves and specialist machines were invented. But neither Nick nor me have ever done it without ending up with some black nastiness at the bottom. And Magda has her heart set on a popcorn machine. It might be an attraction. I ...

First meeting
If we wanted to have a meeting soon, Tuesday at 9pm would suit me, but maybe not anyone else. It would be nice to find a day/time that we can stick to for each meeting. I would rather not meet on Wednesdays, and some Mondays I am film dude, so Tuesdays are good for me. Fridays are not too bad either...

I don't want to be all negative, but I don't think there is much we could do at this stage. Any successful action of this kind has to be planned well in advance. The most we could do now is some minor vandalism, which might cost the developers some money, but will just give eco-warriors a bad/worse ...

Sandwiches - good and bad
Have you had a particularly good sandwich at the Forest (or anywhere else)? What was it? Have you had a very bad sandwich at the Forest? Let us know and perhaps we won't make it again. We would like to know your favourite fillings, mainly so that we can shift more sandwiches and not have to bin the ...

Aren't you on FreeCycle (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FreecycleEdinburgh/) anymore, dude? They are always offering TVs, usually smallish ones.
Don't forget, you need a licence, or you'll end up sharing a cell with the guy you sent down. Now that would be soap opera justice.

I'm not George Monbiot, but I think having more trees is, all other things being equal, a good thing. There is a finite(ish) amount of carbon in the world. Trees are made of carbon. Carbon can either be in trees or it can be in CO2. We are releasing more carbon than the trees are fixing, because we ...
