Satellite

Did you know that the International Space Station (ISS) only arches over the UK's end of Europe once every 50 years?
Me and my parents found out that the ISS was in fact going over France tonight, which meant we could see it. So we went outside and wow! was it bright.
Apparently it's going over again on the 22nd of April directly overhead and will be twice as bright. So take a look ;-)

To the rescue!

My family and I were minding our own business this afternoon pottering in the garden, and what happens? Luna, our resident ninja cat decided to take a swipe at a baby Robin and rendered stranded away from its parents.
So now we've got a baby Robin in an old washed up ice cream tub surrounded by leaves and twigs. Now what?
Apparently, Robins don't like bird seed or crushed mosquitos (which Dad quickly supplied) but do eat cat food. Ok ...
Anyone have any ideas?

Shops

Why do some shops have their air conditioning set to 'As hot or as close to the sun's heat as possible'? We can hardly buy anything if we've melted into a puddle.

April

I love April - it's the one month when I can sing Little April Shower from Bambi. Let the rain commence.
