Spring is here…and so is the asthma
April 15, 2011 on 4:22 pm | In Culture | No CommentsMy poor little boy is an asthmatic and this time of year is especially difficult for him. The weather is lovely right now where we live and we love to be out in the countryside as often as we can when the kids are not in school, but this poses problems for my son. The grassy fields all contain grass spores of course, then there’s the flowers too…
At home we try to keep on top of the dust situation and this year I have been thinking about getting one of those air purifiers just to help him along a bit more. I don’t know much about them but by the sound of them alone they might make his life a little easier to breathe in.

Yuri conquered space but it was earth that beat him in the end
April 15, 2011 on 4:18 pm | In Science Fiction Technology | No CommentsI was watching the TV coverage recently regarding the anniversary of Yuri Gargarin’s first trip into space. What a brave guy he had to be considering at that time that space travel was extremely risky – his poor predecessor did not make it back alive. His journey must have been incredible – to be the first human being in history to see the earth from outside the earth. he took a huge risk – not like down here where if something goes wrong with your car you have the advantage of a roadside assistance plan to help you out if you break down.
But poor Yuri – he travelled all that way into space and made it back safe and sound only to be killed in a road accident here on earth. How tragic eh…?
