MOLD -NOT HAPPY WITH HOUSING ASSOCIATION ?

Mold can be found in dark, moist areas with limited light. Molds are fungi that grow in the form of multicellular filaments. These fungi can grow and reproduce rapidly through small spores, which may remain airborne continually. They can survive through extreme temperatures. Some moulds can start growing at about 3.89 degrees Celsius or even less. Dealing with mould in the home should be done carefully to prevent the spores from spreading. The removal should be done as quickly as possible, as mould may pose health risks if inhaled.

Instructions

1. 1
   Put on safety goggles, a mask and a pair of gloves. Find the area in the house where the dampness and mould is located. Locate the source of it and resolve it. Fix a leaking roof or plumbing promptly. Remove items from the room that are damp and may have mould growing on them. Place them in a big plastic bag, tie the plastic bag to prevent the spores from coming out, then discard it. Get rid of other items, such as clothing, furnishing or carpets, that are damp and mould infested.
2. 2
   Block off the area where the mould is present. Tape a large piece of plastic around that section to prevent the spread of spores to other non-moldly areas of the house. Keep children and other occupants of the home away from the area that is being cleaned.

   1. 3
      Vacuum rugs, carpets and other fabric furnishings in the house thoroughly to eliminate mould spores. Wipe areas that are washable with unscented detergent or baking soda. Scrub infected areas briskly, then use a clean wet rag to wipe it. Dry the wet area immediately after cleaning.
   2. 4
      Hire a professional trained in removing mould to inspect the home for any remaining mould spores. Prevent further mould from developing by keeping the home dry. Regularly check for sources of moisture such as leaks and fix them immediately.

   

   Tips and warnings

   • The exposure to mould in the home can cause health issues. Do not delay if you suspect that there is mould in your home.ALL VERY USEFUL INFORMATION BUT WHEN I INFORMED  OUR HOUSING ASSOCIATION THEIR SAID NOT A LOAD TO DO AND IF COLD LEAVE HEATING  ON WITH WINDOWS OPEN AND JUST KEEP ON TOP OF IT.

Episode 1

Four modern bakers bake their way through the era that gave us modern baking as we know it - the reign of Queen Victoria. Experts Alex Langlands and Annie Gray join them to tell the incredible story of our daily bread.

The journey begins in 1837, when bread was the mainstay of most diets and bakers were at the heart of every community. A rural bake house has been kitted out exactly as it would have been in the 1830s. The bakers must get to grips with centuries-old methods of breadmaking and that means doing absolutely everything by hand.

The first loaves are made with heritage wheat flour and brewers' yeast in a tiny wood-fired oven. It is bog standard bread that fed Victorian rural workers but to modern palettes it is an absolute revelation. Fifth-generation baker John Swift gets a taste of the bread his ancestors once made and artisan baker Duncan is in his element in this unhurried, organic world. There is no shop, so the bakers deliver door-to-door. For industrial baker John Foster, who deals with customers as far afield as China, the fixed demand and lack of competition enjoyed by Victorian bakers is an utter joy.

But the idyll doesn't last. In the 1840s, poor harvests and an economic downturn saw the price of wheat rocket, so barley bread must be made for the poor. It is an irony not lost on the bakers that this bread would only sell in the poshest artisan bakeries today. But it is when they have to turn their hand to making crammings - Victorian chicken feed - that their forebears' role in feeding a starving nation really hits home.-http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b06vn7sq/victorian-bakers-episode-1

There is also a look at the sophisticated art of the Picts and the Gaels, the exuberant Renaissance period of the early Stuart kings, and the destruction of the Reformation, when religious artworks in Scotland were all but wiped out.

Trapped 45ft sperm whale dies on beach in Norfolk after injuring tail

A 45ft sperm whale weighing around 30 tonnes has died after getting stuck on a beach.

The whale got stuck beneath the cliffs at Hunstanton, Norfolk, injuring its tail on Friday just hours before low tide.

A second whale managed to free itself and swim away to safety with the rest of the pod.

"It was obviously a very distressing scene earlier. We would ask the public to stay away from the beach."

Richard Johnson, senior maritime operations officer for the Maritime and Coastguard Agency

How old are fairytales?

Fairytales
Fairytales much older than previously thought, say researchers
Study of fairy story origins traces some back thousands of years, with one tale dating back as far as bronze age

Fairy stories such as Beauty and the Beast and Rumpelstiltskin can be traced back thousands of years to prehistoric times, with one tale originating from the bronze age, academics have revealed.

Using techniques normally employed by biologists, they studied common links between stories from around the world and found some have roots that are far older than previously known.

Durham University anthropologist Dr Jamie Tehrani, who worked with folklorist Sara Graça da Silva, from New University of Lisbon, believed the research – published in the Royal Society Open Science journal – has answered a question about our cultural heritage.

These stories have been told since before even English, French and Italian existed
Dr Jamie Tehrani
In the 19th century Wilhelm Grimm, of the Brothers Grimm, believed many of the fairy stories they popularised were rooted in a shared cultural history dating back to the birth of the Indo-European language family.

But later thinkers challenged that view, saying some stories were much younger, and passed into oral tradition having first been written down by writers from the 16th and 17th centuries.

Tehrani said: “We can come firmly down on the side of Wilhelm Grimm.
“Some of these stories go back much further than the earliest literary record and indeed further back than classical mythology – some versions of these stories appear in Latin and Greek texts – but our findings suggest they are much older than

The academic said Jack and the Beanstalk was rooted in a group of stories classified as The Boy Who Stole Ogre’s Treasure, and could be traced back to when eastern and western Indo-European languages split – more than 5,000 years ago.

Analysis showed Beauty and the Beast and Rumpelstiltskin to be about 4,000 years old. And a folk tale called The Smith and the Devil was estimated to date back 6,000 years to the bronze age.

The story, which involves a blacksmith selling his soul in a pact with the devil in order to gain supernatural ability, then tricking the evil power, is not so well known today, but its theme of a Faustian pact is familiar to many.

The study employed phylogenetic analysis, which was developed to investigate evolutionary relationships between species, and used a tree of Indo-European languages to trace the descent of shared tales on it, to see how far they could be demonstrated to go back in time.

Tehrani said: “We find it pretty remarkable these stories have survived without being written. They have been told since before even English, French and Italian existed. They were probably told in an extinct Indo-European language.”

Fairytales often have themes common to humans throughout the world and through all ages, such as family, betrayal, violence and survival, he said.

And he said we enjoy the magical element, explaining: “I think it is human nature to think about that territory about the edges of what is possible and impossible.”

'Wrong kind of sun' delays trains

Trains approaching Bath Spa station have been slowed down by the mad March heat.

In a move already dubbed 'the wrong kind of sun' by some commuters, Network Rail has imposed speed restrictions on stretches of line in the west.

Operator First Great Western says the worst affected area has been between Filton Abbey Wood and Stapleton Road in Bristol, but there have also been delays in Wiltshire and in Bath itself.

The curbs – called heat speeds – have been implemented because of the effect of the spring heatwave on the tracks.
