Our Tesco is now accepting tupperware etc instead of using plastic bags from the store. That's ok, but I hardly ever buy stuff from their fresh meat/deli counter to make use of it. Perhaps I should alter my shopping habits now I have the opportunity.

Or, maybe I should try harder and not going to Tesco in the first place!! Went this morning (Saturday) and quickly regretted it, made it most of the way round before I lost the plot but it was packed and i was bristling for a fight by the time I'd done. Just my normal weekly shop.

International air travel is terrible for single use plastic (and also terrible for the environment footprint in general, which is why (a) I did the best I could to minimise my footprint and (b) tacked a holiday on to the work travel to get the most "value" from the flights.
1. took my warm jumper in my carry-on rather than hold luggage so I didn't need to the use the (plastic wrapped) blanket
2. used a water bottle (which the cabin crew ere happy to refill for me) rather than plastic cups on the flight (except once when I was too sleepy to communicate clearly enough)
3. when I had a ginger beer I had it straight from the can and refused a plastic cup and straw
The cabin crew seemed very happy for me to minimise plastic waste

I'm looking for ideas for gifts for 3yo's... So far, I've got:
- second hand playmobil (is it acceptable to gift second hand stuff??)
- some cookie cutters (metal) / baking kit.
and now I am stuck...
I've got quite a few ideas for things for my kids but this is for other people's kids!

I have given 2nd hand. I don't know if it is acceptable!
Books. Make your own play dough / cookies kit - ingredients in a jar, instructions. Wooden toys - blocks, wood slices, rainbow, animals. Erm.

If they like cooking make up a scrapbook of recipes?
Stones and paint to decorate (and hide)
