Last week my family and I went up to Scotland to visit friends. We travelled via air plane as it takes two days to drive. They live right at the very top of Scotland only 40mins from Jon O’Groats and we live just outside Bristol.

It’s common knowledge that asbestos is a highly damaging group of microscopic fibres that can severely impact the health of our lungs if inhaled. Many wonder if there is an actual need for asbestos considering how dangerous it can be if not dealt with correctly. As of 1999, the use for asbestos was banned in the UK. However, during the 1950s-80s, asbestos was commonly used in buildings due to its strong resistance to chemical attacks, its poor ability to conduct heat, and its overall superb tensile strength.

Patio furniture which is otherwise called garden furniture is specifically designed for outdoor areas of the house. You will come across a variety of patio furniture designs where you’ll have endless options when it comes to tables, chairs and lounges. Patio furniture is made with fabrics and materials which are resistant to the exposure of sun or rain or any other weather woes.

As much as every homeowner would like to indulge in a course of dramatic renovations, there are some key problems with that prospect. Firstly, it’s expensive.

After what seemed like forever, minus the amount of packing I had to do within a three days times, my parents and I finally landed in Sapporo, Japan. This was a bit exciting and depressing to me. All at once, I had to leave behind my friends and the place I grew up in since I was 6 years old in California. And I already started feeling homesick. I glanced over at my parents, who were still sound asleep until the flight attendant woke them up.
