How have I only just found out that 2020 was the first ever coal-free Christmas Day! So not all bad, managed to save yourself there at the end didn’t you 2020...
Sir Ian McKellen has received the Covid vaccine. “Anyone who has lived as long as I have is alive because they have had previous vaccinations... you’re having it not just for yourself but for people who you are close to – you’re doing your bit for society.”
Heat pumps are the future 🔥🏡❄️
