I was interviewed for iPM this week by Eddie Mair about Superheroes, Alturism and Disguise.
The interview will be available on the Listen Again function, and the podcast (I think) for a week, for those who are able to listen.

Thank you Katie. Your talk was wonderful. 
Give my best to Corwen - I hope he is over the mumps, poor man.
Oh and congratulations....well...on everything you spoke about! I'm very happy for you and Corwen.

Thankyou Katie i really enjoyed that. Yes it is available as a podcast. I think you spoke brilliantly about the rewards of alternative living.
I suspect that a typical radio 4 listener would have initially thought "what strange people". Super hero costumes, walking to Spain etc. Not too many years ago i would have thought like that too! But you showed the simplicity and beauty of escaping the rat race without criticising others. Great show!

Thank you both. It was quite a surprise when Radio 4 contacted me, but they were genuinely really keen to run the feature, and not to make me sound cranky, which was a refreshing change from most media these days. I got a few message from people who heard it and were inspired, which made my day 
If you are interested, then I wrote the weekly blog about it, to tie in.

And all you stateside, if you ever get to the Possibility Alliance, please give my best to Ethan and Sarah and their daughter and let them know Iplan to visit them one day (just waiting for a low emissions ferry or a ride on a sailing ship).
