Fancy Plogging? Started in Sweden by Erik Ahlstom; it's the act of picking up litter whilst jogging. The word is a combination of the Swedish term 'plocka upp' meaning to pick up, and the English word 'jogging'. #loveourplanet #lovejogging #loveplogging #keepbritaintidy

So what if you're not a jogger or plogger...you could be a Pliker or Plalker. It's the same principle as Plogging, except it applies to hikers or walkers. #loveourplanet #lovejogging #loveplogging #lovepliking #loveplalking #keepbritaintidy

Books: '...Physical books are tough, hard to destroy, bath-resistant, solar-operated, feel good in your hand: they are good at being books, and there will always be a place for them.' quote from Douglas Adams (author) #lovepaper #loveprint #lovebooks #lovelearning #loveescapism

How's your memory? It's been proven that writing by hand is better for memory and information retention, than using a computer! So if you're in a learning curve right now, it's worth taking note...with a pen and paper! #lovepaper #loveprint #lovewriting #lovereading #lovetrees
