At 3:04pm on November 11, 2009, Mark said…: 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!

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

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

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

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?

Tim Lang/Andrew Simms event - are the spaces limited? I have a few friends who want to come. If you need attendees (though I doubt it) I could pass on the info to SOAS Food Studies that may attract a fair bit of attention...
(hopefully this will send now)
Cheers

Tim Lang, Angrew Simms event next Thursday...are there limited spaces? I have a few friends who would like to come. Also if you are in need of attendees (though I very much doubt it) I've got a number of food groups I could pass on the info to...

Any chance of a funky picture for the Andrew Simms/Tim Laing event? Might entice a bit more interest?
Cheers, Nick

Hope all is going well?

A quick message to give you a heads up that you can now access funding directly through project dirt.

As of today ... Timberland, the US boot guys - are making available £500 to 4 projects on the site. I just wanted to flag this with you in case you needed funds to help your project.

Take a look at their project page http://www.projectdirt.com/group/timberlandEK to see how to apply.

I'm here if you need a hand with anything.

cheers... catch up soon

Mark
