You magazine eco columnist and editor of a Slice of Organic Life, Sheherazade Goldsmith, will be joining us for an online chat to share her green tips on Wednesday June 18th from 1-2pm. Sheharazade is an eco mum with three children under ten. She's launching the Peter Rabbit Naturally Better initiative which sees the well-loved Beatrix Potter creation become the first ever licensed character to go green.

Created in 1893, the naughty little rabbit is the oldest licensed children's character in the world and this new initiative reflects the importance that Beatrix Potter placed on the natural world and the environment.

If you can't make it on Weds, you can post your questions in advance here. Otherwise, we'll see you with your organic salads (home grown of course ) on weds lunchtime.

well done girlshookup's dd!

my next question for Shezza is you know when you arrive in Devon station on the first class train tickets from London, how do you get to the Devon country house? Do the staff collect you in the Prius? Or do you have a little eco pony & trap thang?

If you were going to chill out on a friday night and retain your green credibility what would you do?

and what would you do really?

DarthVader · 13/06/2008 18:28

Do you actually claim green credibility or is it more of a hobby to fill the time?

DarthVader · 13/06/2008 18:29

sorry ~I think that was a bit rude

Please can we have proper people back on Live Chat like Gordy and Dave?

It's getting a bit boring having book-plugging cupcake-buntings...

Can we have Germaine Greer .. we could ask her about selling-out .. awwww g'wan ... please

Swedes · 13/06/2008 20:01

I think all of you MNers are extremely mean.

Please help me put up this bunting in the Mumsnet orchard and let's decorate the place so as to be welcoming Ms Goldsmith.

I might not be around. But I'd like to ask her.
Would you really rather be looking after geese than jigging with a hot bloke in the nightclub named after your mother? If yes, who do you blame?

Oh and do you have a lover? Is he a Polish agricultural student?

"1 ah we dont need you"

Twiglett · 13/06/2008 20:04

whether she appears or not is rather a test of her character, no?

Twiglett · 13/06/2008 20:05

I honestly have no idea who she is, despite all the wiki references .. I don't really care either

and I hate Beatrix Potter

NormaStanleyFletcher · 13/06/2008 20:07

coddy, coddy, coody

do you not think that they register the name before they announce the live event

MadamePlatypus · 13/06/2008 20:11

A bit off topic, but Beatrix Potter - twee? - have you read the tale of Mr Tod? I think it probably inspired the Blair Witch Project.

flowerybeanbag · 13/06/2008 20:11

I've been having a rough day but this thread has cheered me right up, there is now diet coke all over my laptop.

Twiglett · 13/06/2008 20:21

don't see why MI can't have a couple of geese .. she's got a pond

Twiglett · 13/06/2008 20:21
