  1. Simple and cheap air con

     

    2 bottles (I use 2x2 pint plastic milk ones from any supermarket/shop), fill with water, freeze them.

     

    Stand the frozen bottles a few inches apart and place a fan behind them so that it blows air through and around them in your direction.

     

    May want to stand the bottles on something like a tray to collect any condensation/melt though.

  2. It is a point in time (of year) and an important one too, how you see/view it is individual.  Like the cold is hardest at dawn the summer now comes into it's own, the summer dawn is quite nice.

     

    Celebrated around the world by many as a tradition of marking a time and point in the year for life, so worth remembering that.

     

    I shall honour that day out of spiritual respect but each to their own, I just like tradition and it's respect.

  3. Lauren your POST does indeed highlight both a Climate and Evironmental issue, the impact of over population, resource extraction, pollution etc is having an effect on our planet.  And I think the biggest cause and effect is population, second to that education and then recycling of what we have already discarded.  It is a shameful world we live in when it is easier and cheaper to throw away goods and when they are made to fail and not be repaired just replace them again and again.

     

    The population of the planet is like unrestrained consumer credit, the planet itself is the debt...

     

     

    ...one day like the consumer/economic crash, there will be a day when the party is over and the debt collecters will turn up demanding payment.

    About
    Hello there. I'm Bob.

    I may be a red squirrel, but once you get past my bushy tail, pointy ears and whiskery features, there’s not much difference between me and you. Honest.

    I’ve decided I can no longer sit here in my tree gnawing on nuts, while the woodlands, meadows and wildlife around me are disappearing. It’s time to make a stand.

    Our children deserve to know what it’s like to run through a wildflower meadow and hear a skylark’s song.

    It’s time I gave nature a voice - I’ve seen too much of it disappear.We need to ask every[] politician what they intend to do to look after our wildlife, countryside and wild places. That’s why I’m off on the campaign trail – to help ensure nature is back on our politicians’ agendas.

    I’ll be popping up here, there and everywhere, reminding people around the UK just why nature is important.
