Thanks, Richard.
I knew there was a point to this Forum somewhere.

I'd guess that's Malcolm Harper on Church Lane - there are posters in his windows. (He's not the same as One Village, that's run by Roy Scott.)

Thanks. Apparently whoever is selling Palestinian olive oil in Charlbury is also named Malcolm.
I met the principals at an east oxford fair trade stand who are involved in some interesting coop work on the gaza strip. I assume you looked at www.zaytoun.org.

Zaytoun? Not me Guv, its the old rumour mill in false grind mode. There is another Blackmore in town, linked to the church (or one of the churches) I believe, perhaps its them? Also, one of the houses in that little road that leads from the back gate of the anglican church towards the railway line, on the right hand side, sells Palestinian olive oil or is involved with the import of such, perhaps it is them? Might be the same people as do the 3rd World craft stuff shop in Woodstock, name of which escapes me, but they often have a van parked in the road.

Malcolm, Lost your email address but was told you purchase free trade zaytoun products for Charlbury residents. Can you drop me a line?

Next time be ready - build your own seismometer! More reliable than a squeeling rabbit...

I FELT THE BED SHAKE, WONDERED WHAT MY WIFE WAS UP TOO, WHEN I TOLD HER.SHE TOLD ME SHE DID NOT FEEL A THING

I felt the bed being jolted quite perceptibly and assumed it must be either a poltergeist or an earthquake. I chose to plump for the more prosaic, earthbound, explanation!

I was still awake watching tv when I felt the sofa shake. Thought I had drunk too much!

Were we the only two people woken up by the earthquake? If anyone else has any stories be nice to report them. Mine concerns panic stricken housebunnies (allowed free run of the kitchen diner area of the house all the time) who totally freaked.
