When it comes to birds, there isn’t just the question of the chicken and the egg; But this question has an answer, and here I’m going to reveal the deepest secrets of duck down: How on earth to ducks manage to swim, but stay dry?
Offering protection from the rain is just one of the uses your roof can have. Did you know that in some parts of Belgium, homeowners are required to collect rainwater? We can all follow this example to make savings every day. In some cases, you may be eligible for tax credits or grants to help fund the installation.
Rainwater harvesting systems are an integral part of eco-construction techniques. They offer you soft water for all uses. Perfect for watering the garden, or for flushing the toilet. It is possible to collect up to 73 cubic metres of water every year, which can lighten your water bill and take the pressure off the environment!
In spring 2009, UK forecasters were predicting a beautiful summer. Across Britain, everyone was expecting a Barbecue Summer.
Except weather forecasting isn’t so easy! Rainfall in July was twice the monthly average with close to 14 cm of rain recorded.
Most people remain pragmatic about the vagaries of the British climate, but some opinion has turned against forecasters, accusing them of being too vague and too far off the mark. Maybe this is what lead meteorologists to forecast rain in August, to keep expectations low!

Here are a few ideas for games
- Jumping in puddles. Whoever makes the biggest splash wins!
- Make paper boats and sail them down streams.
- Build a water capture system to channel water into a reservoir (using guttering, plastic cups, tarpaulins for instance)
- Dance
- Run through the rain drops
- Create a bike course that takes you through the most puddles possible!
- Who can collect the most snails in a minute?
It’s your turn to play!
