Question of the day...

Is Liverpool an urban heat island?

Investigating some variables such as temperature, pollution and albedo (definitely albedo) effect today! Themometer, camera and brain at the ready :)

Tallest Building in the EU (If we stay that is...)

The Shard Building (View from the London Eye)

The Natural History Museum

A little sad I did not get to see the dinosours however never fear, one step into the red zone of the museum and you will be welcomed to the fantastic world of Earth Science!

Kobe Supermarket! I have always wanted to visit Kobe!

Probably the greatest room I have ever been in. Mind blowing!

Plate tectonics globe - easily made with papier-mache perhaps!

The Ultimate Ring of Fire

Victims of Pompeii (Props)

Victims of Pompeii (Taken at Pompeii 4 years ago)

Maybe one day I could work for the BGS :)

London!

I advise anyone and everyone to get down to London. It is a central hub of all things amazing, and most definitely lives up to its name as a World City! London has so many fantastic things to offer with so much geographical awesomeness hidden around every corner (and perhaps a TARDIS here and there).

It's Snowing!

Snow has finally fell on Liverpool! #actinglikeachildwhenitsnows But there have been many disruptions to transport,work and school... Transports networks are rapidly trying to respond to this snow that has hit England, Wales and Scotland. The sound of sirens as you arrive home from school brings the reality to how dangerous these weather conditions are. Thousands of schools have been closed and the students / teachers sent home - except of course if you are one of the 7 in my school with an afternoon exam. How long will the snow go on for? Will the number of accidents be limited with officials working as hard as they can? School on Monday? I hope so! 

Froggy has been caught out in the snow! Uh oh!

It's -6 degrees Celsius in my garden!  

My dog has had a fun day playing! :)
