I have always had a fascination with words. One of my favourite words is 'Palaverous', which basically means: to be wordy, verbose, given to palaver. I have been thinking about my word-love and how there are probably other crazy people out there that love words as much as I do. I shared a fun word definition on our social media pages today; I would like to make this a regular thing with an associated hashtag so you could follow and get involved. 

Our small business has some big changes going on this year and one thing we really want to do is start a proper blog for Newton and the Apple, with regular posts. But, we don't want to just post anything for the sake of posting... we really want to know what you would love to read about so we've opened this up for your comments. We've made some suggestions for topics we could write about but there is no point us rambling on if they aren't topics you would want to read about.

I mentioned in the last blog post that we had started a new tradition in our family of buying rocks as presents for my young nephew, Jack. This idea worked brilliantly; he is now super enthusiastic about rocks and it makes present-buying at Christmas pretty easy really (and fun). His first rock was paired with a big book all about geology so we're sharing that today and we have the junior geologist himself in the studio telling us about his favourite rocks from his growing collection.
