Not all laundry day routines are created equal. In fact, outside of the U.S., dryers aren’t all that ubiquitous. If you want to save money, slash utility costs and get great-smelling clothes in the process, ditch your dryer and instead hang-dry your laundry. This clip and dry hanger hooks to your shower rod or closet rod, and includes 16 clips for drying bras, lingerie and other delicates. If you have more floor space, you might prefer a foldable drying rack for your heavier garments like towels, jeans and sweaters.

If you’re looking to both tackle dry skin and get rid of that rough outer layer, you’ll want to give Eucerin Intensive Repair Very Dry Skin Lotion a whirl ASAP. It goes to work locking moisture into the neediest skin and then gently exfoliating away the rough, dead skin cells that may already be there.

For example, the microbiological limits used in the U.S. differ from those in Europe. It is, therefore, vital that the stability studies are tailored to the market for which the pharmaceutical product is destined, which requires detailed knowledge of what data is acceptable and what is not.

My concerns are less practical. Bored with apples, I head to Deeney’s in Leyton, a Scottish diner where I order a haggis sandwich. “Haggis, 100 per cent Scottish lamb. Scottish cheddar. Bread baked in Bermondsey,” reveals co-owner Paddy, bemused. “Rocket grown in Italy. I guess we’ll have to take that out.” 

Q: The base of my lamp separated so I applied a small ring of Gorilla Glue around the Lucite bottom and set the top of the lamp on it. I used only a small amount. A few days later, I went to lift the lamp, and the top again separated from the base. The glue had seeped down inside of the Lucite and glued it to the top of my wooden TV stand. How do I fix this without ruining the top of the cabinet?

The field of pharmaceutical stability testing is rapidly evolving as pharmaceutical firms look to new markets, drugs become more complex and regulators demand better quality, and more extensive data.

“You’d be surprised by how much isn’t 100 per cent made here,” says Jo Elgarf, the admirable south London mother who helps run the 48% Preppers group (one of her four-year-old twins, Nora, has a rare brain condition called polymicrogyria, and she’s understandably concerned about medical supplies in the event of a no-deal Brexit). “You could have a pork pie made 95 per cent here, but then the gelatin comes from Europe.” Another friend, with a shady contact in the dairy world, warns me that 50 per cent of Britain’s yoghurt is produced outside the UK. It’s an apocryphal apocalypse, but one I am determined to prepare for. 

Fiat Chrysler has test roads at proving grounds that replicate notorious highway sections in North America. Such areas are then nicknamed, including Chalma Road at Chelsea Proving Grounds in Michigan, which imitates rough areas of Mexico.
