London’s Crossrail shunted by further delay as cost threatens to rise by £1.1bn

· August 21, 2020 ·

London's delay-hit Crossrail scheme has been held up again and will not open until the "first half of 2022", the developer of the troubled multi-billion pound project has said. Even before the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, the budget-busting east-west line through the capital, stretching from Berkshire to Essex, had repeatedly missed deadlines since failing to meet the original target of December 2018. In March, Transport for London (TfL) said it was suspending building work at sites, including Crossrail , to limit the spread of COVID-19 . While construction has restarted, social distancing means a maximum of 2,000 people are now allowed on Crossrail sites, which is less than 50% of the staffing levels prior to the public health crisis. In a statement, Crossrail Limited, the company responsible for the project, said: "Delivery of the Elizabeth line is now in its complex final stages and is being completed at a time of great uncertainty due to the … [Read more...] about London’s Crossrail shunted by further delay as cost threatens to rise by £1.1bn

9 Best oven cleaners 2021 – From Mr Muscle to the Pink Stuff these products will leave your oven sparkling

· February 25, 2021 ·

OVEN cleaning is probably top of the list of chores we least want to do - but we really should, especially considering most meals we make involve an oven, whether we're baking, grilling veg or roasting meat. It's a good idea to give your oven a deep clean every month or so, and your oven will also benefit from a weekly surface clean - the best oven cleaners can help. Cleaning your oven isn't just about getting that oven glistening: your oven performs less well if it's covered in grime, as well as affecting how your food turns out. And tastes. There are natural oven cleaners - baking soda and vinegar tend to be popular DIY methods, and some people add dish soap, too - available, as well as eco alternatives. For a stronger clean, you can always choose an oven cleaner with more potent ingredients, although make sure to wear rubber gloves and ensure there's proper ventilation in your kitchen before using these. The best way to use an oven cleaner is to let it sit for a few hours … [Read more...] about 9 Best oven cleaners 2021 – From Mr Muscle to the Pink Stuff these products will leave your oven sparkling

Couple double the value of their house with stunning renovation and it’s now worth £2million

· February 26, 2021 ·

A SAVVY couple managed to double the value of their house with a smart renovation - and it’s now worth £2 million. Mum Tracey Gill and her husband bought the house in a small village near East Sussex in 2016, and have been transforming it ever since. Tracey says her husband gave her a fairly wide brief when house-hunting, explaining he said: “Find a house ripe for transformation in the prettiest location. I knew I could change any house we bought so the important factor was the land and location.” The house, which they bought for £1.25million, dates back to 1730 in places and had low ceilings - not great for Tracey's 6ft4ins husband. Describing the state they bought it in, the mum-of-two said: “It was covered in cream pebble dash with concrete roof tiles, a north facing conservatory on the front of the house, modern leaded light windows, low ceilings, dark rooms, artexed walls, cheap fittings, decades old carpets, pink shag pile in the bathroom and an unimaginative … [Read more...] about Couple double the value of their house with stunning renovation and it’s now worth £2million

The 13 best camping chairs you can buy in 2021

· February 26, 2021 ·

CAMPING chairs are not only useful for camping, but it's a great choice for the park, picnics, outdoor events and even the garden if you don’t want to leave patio furniture out all year round. Keep a couple in the storage cupboard and you’ll find yourself taking them out for all sorts of reasons. Generally, you get what you pay for with camping equipment – the more expensive designs tend to be sturdier and will last longer, though there’s no shame in buying budget chairs if you’re only going to be using them occasionally. On that, one important thing to consider before investing in camping chairs is where you’re going to store them, as some designs, though folding, still take up a fair amount of space. You’ll also need to think about how comfortable you want to be – many camping chairs sit lower to the ground than normal chairs so can be tricky to get out of, and some aren’t padded so can become uncomfortable after a while. Our round-up of portable camping chairs brings you … [Read more...] about The 13 best camping chairs you can buy in 2021
