Summery indeed. And retro! (no more plastic straws in the EU now)

Yes, That’s something we’ve been good about. But there’s still plenty more plastic to tackle! 😦

Definitely. I’ve started to wash my hair with a shampoo bar (which incidently, is not hair soap but literally shampoo without the water). I’m still looking for a really good one as my choices are limited due to some allergy related problems. I buy bars of dry cleaning detergent and mix them with water at home to avoid buying spray bottles all the time etc. But as with the straws – unless people are educated the majority will only change when forced (by laws).

What an exciting reflection – from a plastic cup no less! Such fun!
That drink looks mighty refreshing just about now ….
