Hi Everyone,

I noticed the other day that the "queen of bagland", Anya Hindmarch (UK), has been doing her bit to reduce the number of plastic bags used "across the water."

She has just launched an unbleached cotton creation as an alternative to nasty plastic bags. She has called it "I'm not a Plastic bag."

Anyway, a limited supply of these bags is retailing in Sainsbury's at £5 a pop but have quickly become this month's "must-have" because of her what made them. They are now being sold on eBay for up to £200!

thankfully were all getting better at carrying our bags to the supermarket/veggie market etc. i think that we should abolish those plastic bags altogether if we forget our bag we can always use and reuse a empty box from the supermarket.
i always reuse xmas paper and wine bags why not? were getting there tg.
