Stunning house a stone's throw from one of Anglesey's best beaches up for grabs
'The exclusivity of this property lies not only in its picturesque setting but also in its characterful design and architecture'
"Up for grabs?"  but not if you are local.       More suited to the Cheshire set  or those people wanting to add to their portfolio of property rentals

Professor Tim Spector explains simple change that could aid weight loss
He said it could also improve blood sugar levels and help with heart health

An expert in nutrition has explained a simple change to your eating habits that could aid weight loss and improve heart health. Professor Tim Spector, professor of genetic epidemiology at King's College London and founder of the Zoe health app, espoused the benefits of intermittent fasting during an episode of his podcast.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TKrG7gMzAQY

While speaking with fasting guru Gin Stephens on his show, which can be found here, he claimed that this specific manner of consuming food can profoundly impact weight reduction. It comes after contentious preliminary studies recently presented at the American Heart Association (AHA)'s Epidemiology and Prevention, Lifestyle and Cardiometabolic Scientific Sessions, suggested those who ate their entire day's worth of calories within an eight-hour window - a form of intermittent fasting - faced a 91% increased risk of death from cardiovascular disease

Hobbies and Interests / Re: Cars............Blue Badge holders warning.

« Last post by SteveH on April 15, 2024, 09:49:28 am »

Drivers across the UK who own and use a Blue Badge for parking are being urged to check their eligibility and ensure they have not let it expire

While most users know that their Blue Badge expires three years from the date of issue, some may not realise that renewal is not automatic. To avoid having an invalid permit, it's important to apply for renewal 12 weeks (or 3 months) before it expires.

Failure to do so could result in a substantial ?1,000 fine if the expired badge is still displayed. This is because displaying an out-of-date Blue Badge is classed as ?misuse? under transport guidance.
