National Teddy Bear Day Today is National Teddy Bear Day! Teddy bears were named after US president Theodore (Teddy) Roosevelt. And it's not the nicest story to begin with!

Making Up My Own Mind
Hi everyone, I have a meeting on Tuesday. It's largely to do with the way I want to go forward in life. I have no sense of balance due to the removal of a brain tumour in 1974 - when I was three.

Finger on the pulse.

This is one of those moments. For those that work there are…

I know it might seem a little bit of a silly day, but sometimes you need silly and I'm a bit of a fan of the coconut! The coconut has many uses and benefits!

Ethical decisions that don't mean spending more money
I read on a packet of juice that concentrated orange juice is better for the planet because it uses much less fuel. Removing the water in the source country means only transporting the concentrate overseas, then they just add the water (which, unlike oranges, you can find everywhere) back in when it arrives at its…
