reduce, reuse, recycle.

meanwhile.tv has launched a *reduce, reuse, recycle.* campaign in the
studio to curb the amount of paper wast we receive and generate,
starting with envelopes which are to be opened carefully to cause
minimum damage, previous addresses & postage to be removed or covered
with a chubby black marker, stamped with the *reduce, reuse, recycle.*
logo and stored for reuse, also scrap paper to be made into note pads
just by stapeling.

just 2 ideas there that we will be starting with, hopefully our clients
who will receive these items will try some thing similar.

This beautiful and engaging children's book tells of the 17th century
adventures of Richard Joyce, the original designer and creator of
Galway's own Claddagh Ring.

Written locally by Patricia McAdoo and illustrated by Galway artist

leaves his beloved Claddagh home from the Spanish Arch in Galway on a

A wonderful tale of friendship, loyalty and love, Richard's exciting
