Government non-committal on VAT cut for home improvements

Aug 27th

Posted by admin in home improvement

The government has given a non-committal response to a new petition calling for it to cut VAT on home improvement work.

Garvis Snook, chief executive of builder Rok, had submitted the appeal to Whitehall, arguing that reducing the rate from its current level of 17.5 per cent to five per cent would help to keep the country’s residential property in good condition while providing much-needed work for the construction industry, Inside Housing reports.

He said it would also encourage home owners to carry out more work to improve the energy efficiency of their dwelling, which would contribute to the UK’s targets for More >

Built in to the underside of the table is a 360-watt Metro

Posted by admin in Garden

It was 25 years ago, and I was getting into it. No longer did I exclaim, “What do you mean you can grow lettuce here in January?” I was growing it and a host of other edibles with a large emphasis on herbs. There were hits and misses.

Monterey Bay Aquarium Gets Ready To Close

Aug 19th

Posted by admin in Aquarium

One of the most popular exhibits at the Monterey Bay Aquarium will soon be off-limits to visitors. The outer bay exhibit — home to the aquarium’s sharks — will be closed for nearly a year when repairs start Aug. 30.

“Part of this repair to the exhibit is to make it more habitable and also expand opportunities to add different animals in the future,” said Jon Hoech of the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

While a new set of fiberglass tiles are installed in the tank, sea creatures such as sharks, tuna and sardines will be relocated to temporary homes.
