Hey there,

Here's one from left field...

Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?

A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:

Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella

Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.

Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.

I encourage all to visit the YouTube page to learn more (Show support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly circulate as widely as possible, here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4

Help to raise awareness.

Say have you checked out my web site recently?

Take care and keep in touch.

Best,
Faber.

Hi there,
If you like strawberries, we have a bit of a strawberry theme going on this month.
In honour of our book of the month - Strawberry's Surprise  - we have a little video about growing strawberries at a Pick Your Own farm.
So if you have a minute, do check it out and also our video of the month which is on our myspace page.
We also have some very berry stuff happening on our website www.thefoodies.org
You can find a chilly berry tart recipe at http://www.thefoodies.org/resources.asp?categoryID=22&resourceID=76
And if you have kids who like strawberries they can do an activity to work out how they grow at http://www.thefoodies.org/resources.asp?categoryID=3&resourceID=3
Best wishes for a sunny strawberry June!
