I had a rare trip to London this week and would recommend a river trip to any Londoners or visitors who have not done this. Went with Thamesclipper. For £17 you get a 24 hr hop on and off ticket Online advance) and can stop at all the sights Tower, Greenwich, O2, Tate Modern etc. It is super rapid and you can sit inside if it is cold. It was a very cold and grey day but my return trip from Greenwich was quite spectacular

Copied :--"New company Coral Eyewear, founded by 19-year-old George Bailey, sells a range of glasses and sunglasses made from recycled fishing nets in a bid to remove harmful plastics from the ocean."--
They are on the internet looking for interested firms to register now.
If we all make this product known to everybody we know and on our next optician appointment asked in shop if one could see some recycled frames from fishnets we could help this issue.
Could call it ----Fishing net Scooploop operation.
From time to time we all could report on here how it is going.

Number crunching (Edited)
In our small village on a B road 30 mph for one week they did a speed test*
30,418 vehicles were counted*2,599 were over the limit --16 doing 50/55 mph*
If all would have been given a standard fine would have raised nearly £30,000*
For one year that would amount to -------- £15 million*
