Guardian Hay Festival
We had a great time up in Hay-on-Wye last week setting up some sustainable furniture for the Guardian “House of Hay.” It was a pretty amazing sight and a great contrast between the rustic feel of the house and the luxurious furniture. Unfortunately the weather was miserable, but that didn’t dampen our spirits.
We were also able to attend the Greenprint conference on Thursday, which featured a fantastic line up of ethical talks and debates. Tim Smit was the main attraction, good fun as always, but we also enjoyed contributions from Jo Confin, Ben Stimson and Juliet Davenport. Top marks to Andy Fryers for organising a great day.
We also managed to catch Sir Stuart Rose, Cherie Blair, Jamie Oliver and the incendiary George Monbiot. And the pea and mint soup at the Swan was ace.
