Yep, we're still at it! Still on course, determined to reduce our plastic use here at Moregeous Mansions and nailing January.

Moregeous Monday Moments 29 Jan
The end of January?! How did that happen already. I'm figuring some of you are cheering the end of Dry January? I attempted it. It didn't last.

Moregeous Monday Moments
What a crazy month. Literally crazy. I read over the last MMM posted in October and it feels like a year ago. Â We've been working on clients jobs, on Moregeous Mansions and during that time got word that the BBC show we contributed to earlier this year had finally got a transmission date. We'd started...
