Is your washing machine on the blink? Is it starting to leak, or make a funny noise? Perhaps your clothes are no longer coming out as clean as they used to, or everything is always sopping wet at the end of a cycle.

The Amadeus Orchestra has faced fierce criticism online recently for refusing to stop playing Russian music. We are due to be performing music by Stravinsky and Prokofiev in Exeter Cathedral on 22 July – a programme that was decided on six months ago, way before Putin began his atrocities in Ukraine. Are we against the war? Of course we are. Are we in favour of sanctions that try and put a stranglehold on Putin’s evil regime? Again, of course. However, I’d be surprised if a thug like Putin had ever knowingly heard any of this music, let alone care if it’s performed in Britain or not....

Since most activities are held in open gardens with plenty of sunshine, it is practical to landscape, redesign, and add elements that make the area attractive and welcoming. When planning the renovation and improvements, some things to consider are paths and patios, hedges, boundaries and walls, negative spaces, water features, children’s sensory gardens or play areas, state of the art hot tubs, modern outdoor kitchens and more.
Modern gardens have been all the rage for the past...
Anyone looking for an alternative option to chocolate to give as a gift at Easter could be in with the chance of finding a surprise golden egg – made from recycled wax!
Exeter eco-business The Recycled Candle Company is adding a golden egg to six boxes of its limited edition colourful egg-shaped Easter candles. Those who discover the eggs will receive a voucher for £50 to spend online or at the shop in Gandy Street.
