There is no doubt that as a nation, we have a passion for sport. Whether it’s rugby, football or cricket, weekends in the UK are filled with events and fixtures the length and breadth of the isle. For venues and security firms, they have a lot of hard work to do making sure all those sports fans are kept safe. Experts in crowd behaviour have also had a big say in how such venues are laid out and how the local transport network is set up to ease pressure. If you’re heading off to a game this weekend, be sure to follow these steps to stay safe: Plan your journey Any trip you take should have a certain element of pre-planning. Try to always attend a game with friends or family as there’s always safety in numbers. Plan and book your transport if you’re not driving so everyone knows in […]

You might think that saving up all your holiday for a fortnight in the sun would make you the happiest you could be, but experts disagree with you. Author and economic behaviourist Dan Ariely claims that taking several short breaks will make you happier overall.

By taking a mini-break, you’re not giving yourself the chance to get used to being away. It means you can enjoy the maximum pleasure from a break and repeat that a few times over the year in order to top up your joy levels. Short-Break Ideas The ideal short break is somewhere close to home, so you don’t lose too much time in travel. […]

Many couples choose to celebrate their Wedding Anniversaries with special traditional gifts.  From the first year to the seventieth there are traditional materials and items to commemorate each anniversary.  Year one is marked with a gift made from Paper, year two is Cotton, year three Leather and year four Fruit or Flowers. The fifth anniversary is celebrated with an item made from wood.  As the years go by the gifts tend to get more expensive, exclusive and exotic ending up with the seventieth anniversary year being a gift made out of something Platinum. Working backwards now in years we go to the big sixtieth celebration and the gift should be something made with Diamonds.  Sticking with gifts made from precious jewels we get to the fifty-fifth anniversary and Emeralds are the stones to choose. Probably the most celebrated anniversary couples achieve together is the fiftieth and Gold is the precious […]

As I was growing up my parents were obsessed with Masterchef. We would sit down without fail to watch the amateur chefs cook up dishes for the judges. Each week the contestants would work up a sweat over their 4 burner gas oven hoping to make it through another week. Incidentally if you are looking for a similar commercial oven take a look at https://www.247cateringsupplies.co.uk/catering-appliances/commercial-ovens-and-ranges/commercial-ranges/lincat-slr6-silverlink-600-4-burner-gas-range-oven There were a few other cookery programmes available during my childhood but certainly not as many as are on our screens today. It seems that now we have an abundance of celebrity chefs to choose from when it comes to our culinary television watching preferences. We can choose anything from the traditional information programmes and travel programmes focus on food to the reality style programmes with both amateur and celebrity or professional chefs taking part. Here are just a few of those famous chefs: Jamie […]

Focus on vegetables that are packed with fibre, vitamins and minerals without the sugar that fruits add to your diet. Fruits are also extremely healthy, but go easy on high-sugar varieties such as dried and tropical fruits, and enjoy them in moderation.

Shirts are one of the only clothing items that can suit almost any social setting, but that doesn’t mean that one size necessarily fits all. There are different types of shirts that are best-suited to different occasions, but having one of the following five styles will definitely form the basis of the perfect capsule wardrobe and make those dressing dramas a thing of the past. Image Credit Dress shirt Whether you’re a fan of mens designer shirts or off-the-peg, high-street fashion, a dress shirt is likely to be a must-have wardrobe essential for at least some occasions.
