Title: Ethical shop in Poole
Post by: Nick65 on March 14, 2008, 16:36:11
There is a very good ethical shop in Poole High St - Which uses things like driftwood found on the beach for making things and hemp bags, etc etc etc. My wife was going on about it for ages and then I got dragged round because I started to rant on about making sure everything was eco friendly - And most of it is - Lots of stuff from Cornwall, Dorset and various other places.

The funniest thing was a thing called Kenana Knitters - Which, as I had had 2 pints previously just made me burst into hysterics  :-X And I had to leave the shop - But when I came back in the woman was smiling, thank God for that

Personally I don't have a problem with folk going round a beach and collecting flotsam but don't give me any mens bits about this is saving the planet, point your views towards China, India and the States. :)

Sorry, all I meant was that it hadn't travelled across many continents for a stupid reason. It was actually only 100 miles away not 10,000.
