I have an event in my diary for tomorrow night - to come and speak - but looking over Project Dirt I think it might have been tonight... can we reschedule. Sorry. I am planning to go to Jam N Beets on Sunday though..

brilliant, thank you so much
I actually just started a new job this week and have a load of writing deadlines so maybe we could do this in a few weeks, when things are a bit calmer?
really happy to travel to Wandsworth and would love to visit one of the projects you are working on, especially a food growing one... or anything really.
so sometime in mid to late March?
thanks again for offering to help

Hey
No worries at all, sorry to hear you've not been well but great that you are re-emerging now!
Would really like to talk TTs with you as want to write a feature about the movement in London for the Londonist.
I could put some questions on paper and email, or we could arrange to meet & I could quiz you over a coffee at some point! Whatever suits you.

Thanks,
Helen

Hi Denny, Tom Hitchman suggested you might be interested in joining the lambeth Carbon conversation group. We are meeting tomorrow evening, so if you're interested, please feel free to drop me a line.

Hi Denny. Are you coming along next week to the London Low Carbon Communities Network launch as we are expecting you but your RSVP on the event listing on Project Dirt says that you are not going?

hi denny ... great to see you've joined the wandsworth eco-fund ... thinking it'd be good to get some conversations/material on there prior to promoting it - do you want to put some things down? open scope - so your shout what you put down!

Hi Denny,

Good point! I have emailed both M&N to see what they think - we could always merge events?

Hi Denny

This is Dora Tang, a TV producer from Hong Kong. We're filming a TV programme on how London, known for its creativity, is facing the challenge of Climate Change in the field of design (in a very broad sense) and are very interested in your Climate Games at BAC on 21 Oct. Would you mind dropping me an email at doratang@gmail.com so I could provide more information of our programme to you and discuss the possibility to film the event?

Many thanks,
Dora

Yep that sounds like a good plan, it gives us more time to actually think about all the possibilities as well. Christina (friend who was planning to come along tonight) said she goes along to this sort of event http://sandpit.hideandseekfest.co.uk/events/ occasionally, which might be a good source of ideas.
Cheers,
Erica

Hey,

I can still make it tonight (had a friend who was planning to come along but she has various job app deadlines this evening and can't make it in the end - ok for the next one though), if you think it's worth it with just the two of us? I'm quite happy to come along but don't have a huge amount of inspiration so if you reckon it might be easier with a bigger bunch I'm happy to postpone to next week instead. What do you think?
