As the winter months start to rush in and the weather starts to get colder let us share a thought for other less fortunate then ourselves our older neighbours, someone who is sick or house bound I am sure that a few minutes of our time may well make a big difference to them and quite possible make a bad day better.
We all need to keep warm, but save energy as well, one easy cost effective way is to keep our homes energy efficient is to have both our wall cavities and lofts insulated. For more information go to http://www.teignbridge.gov.uk/index.aspx?articleid=11468
Not only do us humans need help in cold weather but birds also find it very hard, so a little food put out daily will help and I am sure bring some colour into your garden as a thank you. if you need more info on the feeding of our garden birds then go to the RSPB web site.
