haha well Anthony, Sarah would say that the soil accociation are a BUNCH OF FASCIST FREAKS DETERMINED TO RENDER HER LIFE RUINOUS. but in actual fact it's a (UK? i dunno how international they are) charity devoted to educating and finding stuff out about and lobbying for more organic farming. they have very high standards of what it means to be "organic" and have a trade mark that appears on approved products... it's just something i got interested in (cos i am a hippy ect)

I was hoping they were like this super secret organistaion that wanted to replace humans with superior plant people. Maybe, that will be the subject of my next NaNoWriMo novel! yay! I never should have seen Invasion of the Body Snatchers at such a young age.

jel i find it amusing because instead of saying things are dirty or grubby i like to say they are "soiled" because... i dunno, it's a much better word, so quaint and old-fashioned. so i always snigger in case the soil assoc. just go around chucking mud at people, to "soil" them. *sigh* my brane is playing up these days.

Jel, you cannot write filth for NaNoWriMo, you must embrace a higher power. ;-)

The Soil Association are now being less annoying and the main ruin lies with C0mpa55ion in W0rld Farm1ng who = cockfarmers. They are just another organic food lobby with environmental leanings who to ME seem totally preachy, but have a few good points. I buy their products, as their UK organic certification is the one with the highest standards of animal welfare gubbins but it doesn't mean that I LIKE them. Hahahaha they haf also nicked LINKING THE FOOD CHAIN from us (or perhaps we nicked it from them, who know).
