the best things in life are free

I enjoyed Katharine Hibbert's recent piece in the Guardian on how she survived with (virtually) no money in London for a year, living in squats furnished from skips etc. Have to say I like to check skips as well, it's just the permanent moving around from one squatted house to the next, taking all one's possessions along, which would be a little bit tricky for me at this stage of my life.

That piece was extracted from a book which I understand is out today:

Free: Adventures on the Margins of a Wasteful Society by Katharine Hibbert, published by Ebury Press


but obviously, I'll wait and see whether I can get it for free ... Coming soon to a freecycle group near you.
