Last year I was on the way home after (yet another) bookshop party when I saw a bunch of hairy people on a roundabout (St George's Circus) digging. Weird time for the council to work I thought. And none of them are wearing council gear. It must be an alcohol induced hallucination, that's ok then...
But the plants were still there when I walked past the next day.
Then I saw a thing in the papers about Guerrilla Gardening and the penny dropped.
And now the Guerrillas have joined our merry band of PEOPLE WHO DO THINGS THAT WOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO HAPPEN IF CONVENTIONAL WISDOM WAS THE LAW and named us as the exclusive stockists for their hand-harvested lavender pillows.
They really stink! But of lavender, so that's ok!
EX-Worker now turned bestselling novelist Marie can speak guerrilla - if there is a high enough demand I might try to arrange a reading from Gods Behaving Badly at our shop Christmas party - in Guerrilla lingo.
The pillows are £10 - all proceeds towards future gardening projects. We make NIL ZILCH NOTHING but love...

ReplyDeleteOf course she can. Because Bananas Guerilla needs a lot of watches.
Also, I have just written a piece for a charity book about how I can speak bananas. I mean gorilla.
ReplyDeleteExcellent suggestion. Boy, do I wish I could drop by for the event. Is there any way you guys could podcast the evening?
