    I don’t want to panic anyone but have you done all your end-of-world preparation shopping yet? You can’t leave it till the night before like you do with Christmas shopping.

The advice includes things such as a torch, an in-car phone charger, warm clothes and blankets, high-visibility clothing, jump leads, food and dri

Some could argue that not starting dangerous fires is generally good advice that most of us live by anyway, but the UK has seen a lot of devastating wildfires in the dry heatwaves. If you didn’t get an alert, I don’t know what to tell you. Looks like you haven’t been selected to be one of the people saved when the apocalypse hits. Millions of phones went off

    It’s the battle of two massive brands: Facebook versus Wetherspoons. The two companies that between them caused most of the rows that ended up on The Jeremy Kyle Show.
