" We are the Bee Angels, raising awareness of the dangers of over spraying aerosols, in loving memory of Giorgia Green. We are named after Giorgia's love of bees. Giorgia died after accidentally overspraying deodorant which sadly led to her cardiac arrest. It is our mission to raise awareness of the dangers of aerosol use with the aim of no other family experiencing the heartbreaking tragedy that Giorgia's family have endured. We are raising funds to deliver training packages to educate and inform people of the dangers of aerosols and the safer alternatives available. "

The year, the charity webinar week theme is “hives”. Starting next week, from Monday 11th December, there will be one webinar on this theme every evening at 7pm.

The webinars are all free to sign up to, but donations towards the ‘Bee Angels’ group in memory of Giorgia Green are gratefully received: https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/bee-angels389?utm_term=YvEVyqN5D&fbclid=IwAR3LxvkmVPRuQFEdnrmwHv5w2Fxvlp8Ll8rnXQkx-zCN3KktLPMiRIMB7Qo

Nikola tesla clamed to know the true power of the pyramids, Tesla believed they served a higher purpose and was investigating them throughout his life. What did he find so alluring about the pyramids? He wondered if they weren’t giant transmitters of energy – a thought that coincided with his investigation into how to send energy wirelessly.
Were the pyramids "power stations"?

‘The thinner tree was cut years ago and the big one has been holding and feeding it since then. They "wake up" together in the spring and "go to sleep" together in the autumn’

Inosculation is a natural phenomenon in which parts of two different trees, commonly but not exclusively the same species, grow together, self grafting and sharing nutrients

The term emanates from latin- ōsculārī, to kiss

One of the largest ichthyosaur skulls in existence. A real ‘Sea Dragon’.

This is my birthday, so I wanted to share with you the massive, real skull of Cymbospondylus youngorum, a giant ~17-metre-long ichthyosaur from the Triassic of Nevada.

Whilst in LA, I had the chance to do some research and examine this beautiful skull Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County. Jimmy from Dinos Will Always Be Awesome assisted me in the museum collections. We had a blast!

This is part of my exciting research funded by Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851.
