He should be thanked !

Congratulations Irene and great to see now at least two very successful neuroscientists (Irene and Nancy Rothwell in Manchester)in charge of two big Universities .

Antidote to bad politics: plant a fruit tree this autumn-now is the time-choose and plant carefully then you have the joy of this late harvest of plums/damsons and quinces (both need very little care) . If you don’t have a garden -plant one anyway -there is always space somewhere

More gathering in and reason for you to grow food in your back garden-quince is a great low maintenance fruit that is delicious roasted-plus the bark(by the pond) and fruit provide free garden sculpture !#transitionwilmslow

Joyful car-free day in Wilmslow -thousands came to celebrate #festivalnature -great conversations with children at the Lindow Moss/Community Garden Stall around the magic of bogs -quote of the day ‘more magic tricks-no more information please !’

#festivalnature It’s a wonderful day for our last blast-WIlmslow and Cheshires first car free day/celebration-music, dancing, amazing dancers, performance poet and of course conversations about bogs and sphagnum now thriving on Lindow Moss -just come !

Waters and mist are rising on Lindow Moss: in spite of the drought moss and cotton grass more abundant than ever-come and chat about it and celebrate at the Car-free Street Festival @WilmslowNature this Sunday all day -free!

Gathering in: last potatoes but look at the aubergines grown outside all summer but don’t hibernate yet - help celebrate the natural world-our first Car-free Street festival this Sunday. @festivalnature.com

Cold nights: we so enjoyed hosting you at our little bit of the #greenhomes tour at Fulshaw Avenue today. Tesla Battery full and logs dry - keeping ourselves warm with two types of solar energy (logs +dyson) ! Hope you join our new energy group #Transitionwilmslow

Great day for solar ! Come and learn how to be self-sufficient for energy,food and a bunch of other things tomorrow all day #wilmslownature #greenhomes #energysaving

Everyone should see this film-it’s a wonderful and possible vision of how we could be living sustainably in the decades to come

This might make you happy for a few minutes then make you and the world a less healthy place ! Good luck with it

Lindow Moss Poetry Walk: one and half days to go ! We are very excited to share the magic of the moss, the poetry and stories with you. -this is what sphagnum moss looks like-it’s better at trapping carbon than rainforests. 2 pm this Saturday @WilmslowNature

‘Eco-homes’-this is the development site next to Lindow Moss-so far an Olympic swimming pool’s worth of virgin peat has been removed that could have been used for moss restoration-Cheshire East still not sure if all this signifies this development has started ? Eco-farce 😎

Lindow Moss update: in spite of heat and little rain Lindow Moss is still wet and the carbon fixing sphagnum moss is thriving (middle of picture) thanks to activities over the last two years. Will be tweeting about Cheshire East’s lack of activity over the next few days.
