More details
it is now 7 years since I went into a supermarket, I do all my shopping locally in corner shops, farm shops, local markets and so on and I love it...
i have saved money, eaten better and not had the stress of supermarket shopping
i have long grumbled quietly that not enough people do this - but now if this pledge is fulfilled I will stand out and shout about the benefits
- stay clean for ever!
- vote in Durham's local elections
- be peaceful and kind to all those I meet
- pledge to give people a chance before I judge them, to help others when I can fill a need in their lives, to promote a positive outlook on life, and to spread a little more love in a world that could really use it.
