Newspaper Article Report Said September 2023 Hottest Ever in the UK? What About Other Months?

By Toni Cairns Abstract Distraxtions

I saw the newspaper report and considered how the temperature might be adjusting seasonally and so took a look online. 

Found some interesting data graphs online at Statista.com. 


Found online Statista.com accessed on 10th Oct 2023

This graph I have added in the data for a August and September 2023, trading the data available at the Met Office. 
August 2023 Monthly Average Temperature 16.4°C
September 2023 Monthly Average Temperature 15.2°C
 




The statistical data graphs at Statistica can be easily manipulated to show the information you wish to see in various ways. 

For example these graphs show the temp for various months between 2015 and 2023. 







These graphs show a different perspective to the newspaper report I originally read. 


It would be interesting to now analyse similar data for other Nations in various different parts of the world, since as we already regularly observe other species of animals migrate seasonally with weather patterns and changes.

Despite the precedent of years of gender-affirmative care, the social, medical and surgical interventions are still based on very low-quality evidence.

A Child And Technology An Opinion

By Toni Cairns Abstract Distraxtions
A parenting group on social media was discussing the affects of today's modern technology upon our young children.  I commented: A very debatable subject. Careful adult responsibility is required to ensure settings are right, security is set, & supervision is offered. The choices parents & caregivers make of what the children can do on a tablet should be carefully considered beforehand & time limits should be set & adhered to. Imho tablets should not go in a childs bedroom & sleep space, but I also know there are special circumstances when a child having a tablet in the bedroom is beneficial overall to the both the child & the family (for example a child with Autism). The old saying goes 'u can have too much of a good thing', tablets are fun & have many interactive ways to aid a child's learning, development & creativity. However too much tablet time can interfere with a child's physical well-being & social development. So in an i
