Today

Good Morning!

 

Hope everyone is doing well and hope you have all had a fab weekend! Back to normal today after the weekend fun, don't we all just love Mondays?! Lucky for the kids though who have a week off here in Yorkshire- has anyone got any interesting plans?

 

The weather feels quite warm today at 11º but still some quite strong gusts of wind. However, the temperature is forecast to drop a little bit over the next few days, to get to 6º by Friday.

 

Recently in the news it has been all about Donald Trump- he's a bit like Marmite really, you either love him or you hate him, but let's not get into that. Other things in the news: Amazon is set to create 5,000 new jobs in the UK, taking their workforce up to 24,000 people from software developers to warehouse staff. Scientists have discovered that New Zealand is actually sat on top of a new continent called Zealandia, which is mostly underwater. Scientists say that if the oceans were drained, a "high-standing continent" with mountain chains would be revealed. It has been unveiled that Space Ports could be set up and satellites sent into Space from regions across the UK, allowing scientists to conduct experiments in zero-gravity, with the possibility of development of vaccines and antibiotics. Good news for Daniel Craig recently- he is now the second longest-serving actor to play 007 agent James Bond. He has starred in 4 Bond films and has played the role for 4,147 days (almost 11 and a half years!). He is just behind Roger Moore who was in the role for almost 14 years and starred in 7 films.

 

For anyone who is jet-setting in the summer but struggling to find somewhere to go, why not have a research of these places with the best weather in the world: Argentina, Bolivia, Nepal, Australia, France, New Zealand, South Africa, Portugal, Italy, Mexico, Ecuador, Spain, Cyprus, Greece and Costa Rica. I know i'd like to go to all of them!

 

Celebrities who have their birthday today or tomorrow are:

20th February- Rihanna the singer is 29, Cruz Beckham is 12, Cindy Crawford the model is 51, Ivana Trump is 68, Ian Brown- lead singer of The Stone Roses is 54 and Gordon Brown is 66.

21st February- Alan Rickman would be 71, Michael Jackson's youngest son Blanket will be 15, Michael McIntyre will be 41, and Nina Simone would be 84.

 

Don't forget that we are open 9-5 through the week so feel free to drop in to pick up anything you need!

 

Have a great day!
