Floor insulation down this weekend, and the pipes for the heat pump. If all goes to plan this will be our last winter burning fossil fuels.

A new entry in my list of favourite environmentally themed novels, this has ambition and depth, without ever losing the childlike simplicity of its premise. Highly entertaining.
