Gifts For All Occasions

July 26, 2009 · Filed Under Home & Garden, Shopping · Comment 

Gifts I hate being stuck for gift ideas. Whether it’s for someone’s birthday or anniversary, I am always at a loss when trying to think of what to buy. A wedding is especially difficult; I stand in the home wares section and wander aimlessly, dodging staff and offers of assistance. I usually leave empty-handed and close to tears. I dread announcements of engagements or the birth of a baby, as it means more stress (I envy those who love shopping for gifts). That was, until I recently discovered I had a Welsh heritage – and so did a few of my friends. This made it slightly easier, especially for the people closest to me.

Weighing Scales for Business

July 23, 2009 · Filed Under Business, Technology · Comment 

Weighing Scales Knowing the accurate weight of an item is vital to many businesses. Whether a product needs to be posted, shipped or just stored, the weight of it forms the basis of any cost calculation. Not only can inaccurate weight measurement result in the wrong delivery costs being paid, it can also have major implications for health & safety where weight limits might unknowingly be exceeded.

There are many different types of weighing scales used to measure products in an industrial environment. These industrial scales range from bench scales, platform scales and floor scales, onto which products can simply be placed to get an accurate weight, to crane scales, pallet scales and weigh beams which allow much heavier and bulkier or palletised items to be weighed accurately. These are generally digital scales which are easily read and give a precise measurement of the weight.

Industrial Tags For Work & Lifting Equipment

July 20, 2009 · Filed Under Business · Comment 

Industrial tags Working in the industrial or horticultural sectors requires a business to be compliant with a host of health and safety regulations.

The Shetland Pony – a Brief History

July 19, 2009 · Filed Under Pets · Comment 

Shetland pony Shetland ponies are those gorgeous tiny horses you see in pantomimes like Cinderella. They provide rides to children on farms and in zoos, and with their shaggy faces and stocky legs, are an ideal animal for children to share their first interaction with the equine world. In fact, a Shetland pony is ideal for children as they are usually kind-natured and brave – behaviour required when dealing with youngsters. Care needs to be taken, though, that the pony is not spoiled either by the children or their parents. As with many animals, it’s the human input that shapes a pony’s behaviour, and care needs to be taken with how a pony is treated. Also, as with many animals that are thought to be ‘intelligent’, this can be construed as being ’stubborn’. And a Shetland pony is considered ‘intelligent’. Facts to bear in mind when combining a Shetland and children; they appear to have a lot in common!

10k London Run

July 16, 2009 · Filed Under Recreation, Sports · Comment 

10 London Run If you’re a bit of a fitness buff like me, and love seeing some of your local city, then why not consider entering this year’s 10k London challenge? It’s quite simply the best way to see all the main tourist sites in London while getting fit – all for a good cause. This 10 kilometre run raises money for the Rainforest Foundation, a charity that supports indigenous people living in rainforests and aids them in their efforts to prevent the destruction of their local habitat. It has to be a win-win situation for both the people and the forests, and now you can combine your love of pavement-pounding with your love of the environment. Just think of being able to raise money for people whose lives and livelihoods are being turned upside down by the destruction of their forests by large corporations seeking to clear land, exploit the resources they find or the people they come across, or the land they steal from the locals. Speaking of money, it’s less than £30 to enter, and this gets you a great vest so you’re visible while running, advice on training for the race, and plenty of hints and tips on how you can raise money.
