Yesterday Emily and I took Jack and Lisa to visit the
fire station in Cambridge. I thought Jack would go a little bit nuts when he saw a real fire truck but he went very very quiet. Drew explained a lot of kids get a bit quiet when they see a real truck. But we managed to persuade him to take a look in side, sit in the front seat and look at some of the equipment. In all I think he had a good time, but I think the toy puppy he got may have been the highlight of the day! chuckle
Anyway I was having a look at a new blog I found called Turquoise
http://www.turquoise.me.uk/ and I was quite pleased to find this link to a green cleaning guide. I may no longer need all those bottles of chemicals and it will probably save a little money too.

Hey! Get your own firemen, Newark! ;)
If you want any green cleaning advice, we've been green for ages because I'm sensitive to chemicals. A good site for that stuff is http://www.thegreenguide.com/
and the best cheap cleaners are baking soda and white vinegar.
If you find an environmentally friendly toilet cleaner that works well, let me know - still searching for one that deals well with hard water minerals.
Ooh, advertising! Thank you
