Will it really get that bad?

We're just watching The Day After Tomorrow. It's very scary. I know it's OTT and it's a good old-fashioned disaster movie, but this stuff could so easily happen. When are we going to change our ways to try and slow down climate change? More to the point, what are Nick and I going to do about it?

We have a plan of sorts. When we finally move into our own place (hopefully before too long, more news as we get it!) we're going to make it as carbon neutral as possible. Super efficient double glazing, max loft insulation, internal wall insulation, energy efficient lightbulbs everywhere, most efficient electrical appliances as possible. We're going to explore solar water heating options. It might not save the planet but we hope our actions will help in some small way. If we could all do something, it would make such a dramatic difference.

Preaching over for tonight. Plus father and son have just been reunited in the film...!

A year on...

A year ago to the day, I had managed to get one girl baby from the inside of my body to the outside world. It was the most excrutiating thing I've ever experienced and the most awesome. The result is a very cute Faye who was one today. She's almost walking, waving, clapping, smiling, laughing, frowning, trying to talk, trying to feed herself and annoying her brother (not all at the same time you understand). How did that happen?

I have been useless and haven't taken any birthday pics! Suffice to say she looked gorgeous and got far too many presents, all of which were opened by a very helpful big brother... Knackered today as the princess was up for an hour and a half last night and we had lots of babies here this afternoon. Another post soon with up to date pics of the babes I promise.

Oh, and it looks as though we might be buying a house at some point! Offer accepted so we'll wait and see. More soon xx
