Barter and Keynsham-on-Cyberspace

Friday night, our friends Nick and Zoe came around. Nick is a landscape gardener, while Zoe is a kitchen designer who's vamping up my photos for Katy's Cookbook. She's also putting together the cover.

The barter system is alive and well. We give them a load of Kate's spare plants and they gave us a bench that had been tossed out. Brilliant!

Last night, Phil the Bus came around with his wife Cook (real name June) and I showed him his picture on MySpace. Phil is as computer literate as any Luddite, and boggled at the thought that his picture was there, courtesy of www.myspace.com/Keynsham. Described as 'Like the Matrix, but for old people.' Hah. More like the Royston Vezey of cyberspace.
