Are we in the times?

Looks like we got a mention in the times we are on their website, must get out and see if it is the main news paper too. This is pretty exciting.

That's pretty funny, actually:

"Lovers of the urban lifestyle and its corrupting culture of disposable abundancy often forget that one day Mother Nature will no longer yield enough containers to go around."

Especially as I've just bought a load of organic stuff in paper bags, and haven't got any containers to put it all into.

Have a look at this Andy - you may have seen it before... but lots of fab comments from people who have stumbled across ssish.

Definitely on the way up! Remember, be friendly to the people you pass... I'll be telling all my friends now and bore them even more.

I think we're a long way off being on Jonathon Ross or Parky. A little bit of fame like this is always good.

I think we are a long way off the local news mate.

Which is your article Nev? I thought the description of the site was quite amusing "teaches you to make cheap soup, harvest your lawn and buy a sheep." I haven't noticed an article on how to buy a sheep!!!

Harvest the lawn was mine m3!

That puzzled me, too, because the 'buy a sheep' reference seems to be to a dummy link in the new SSish.TV site that is still under construction. How did they know about that?

I emailed them to thank them for the link and also mentioned that we were releasing dot tv site. The link seems to have gone now though.

None of the articles mentioned were written by me or Dave, quite funny really. - looks like Nev is the real star.
