		<title>Would you live in an &#8220;eco&#8221; house like this?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re not entirely sure that this house&#8217;s eco credentials stand up to test, though we&#8217;ve been reassured by the designers that this house in Northumberland is &#8220;eco-friendly&#8221; and with an interior space that is at one with nature.

		<title>Slowdown Skill: Build a den in the garden</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been unseasonably hot here in the UK, which only goes to remind us all that 1. it&#8217;s not usually like this and 2. we&#8217;re not equipped to deal with the heat. So when I visited my hippy friends down in our woodland, I was excited to see their temporary &#8220;bender&#8221; in the garden. A [...]]]></description>

There&#8217;s something strangely soporific about the air in a museum.
