By Olly Smith - Smiths The Rink furniture store. Sleep plays a vital role in our health and general well-being. This is why disruption to our sleep pattern at night can often leave us feeling groggy and often grumpy during the day. And with the average Britain getting two hours less sleep at night than they used to, good quality sleep has become almost as important for our bodies as water and a healthy diet. With our internal body clocks...

By J T Coombes The Queens Speech on 4th June is the worst case scenario for the people of this country. Our Prime Minister has sided with big business, over the electorate, by allowing vast volumes of chemicals to be injected into the ground under our homes without our permission. With over 70% of people against this invasion, how could he simply change established trespass laws by driving a coach and horses through the democratic process? In his desperate attempt to...

By John S.Locke What do you say when a hero of yours dies? Especially when he is only 4 years older than yourself. A man who has been in your life for over 30 years as a part of the consciousness of your generation. It is surprising how much it has upset me personally, and judging by the continuous stream of beautiful, touching messages, comments and statements of disbelief, grief and genuine sorrow on Social media, I am not alone...

By John Simms I'm sure no one would argue with me when I say that David Luiz is not worth £50 million. Even in relative terms it's a crazy amount to spend on a player of his quality. He is undoubtedly a good defender but at the current going rate that fee could buy almost any other player in the world. He has sparkled in patches for Chelsea but is error prone and has a tendency to get carried away,...

David de Winter - Sports Writer On the same day the football World Cup kicks-off a few thousand miles away in Brazil, England’s cricket team will embark on their first test series, against Sri Lanka, since the 5-0 debacle in Australia.  There is a real sense of a new era with this squad.  Graeme Swann, Kevin Pietersen and Jonathan Trott, big players for almost a decade, are no longer involved in the set-up for various reasons and Peter Moores has...

By Davide Padoa, CEO of Design International. www.designinternational.com People have been predicting the slow death of the high street at the hands of the almighty internet for over a decade now. Although the internet has developed into its own massive shopping empire and has claimed some high profile victims on the high street such as Woolworth's and Blockbusters, all in all, bricks and mortar stores have so far persistently refused to die. The literature written on this phenomenon by now...

By Sophia Kupse, qualified Holistic Practitioner As soon as you start to feel pain in your neck, shoulders and back you immediately start to think, what did I do to create it? People overlook the obvious and blame a root cause - my heels are too high, I sit at my computer for hours each day, I drive too much, I over did it at the gym, etc. Sophia Kupse Holistic Therapist and author, known as The Muscle Whisperer, states...
