The ruins of the Reichstag are satisfied
A panoramic historical tour of the city of Berlin, dedicated to the 70th anniversary of the Victory.
The assault of Berlin on April 21-May 2, 1945 refers to unique events in the world history of wars.
It was a battle for a very large city with a lot of solid stone buildings.
An air defense tower near the Zoo. Large ground-based concrete bunkers armed with air defense artillery, used Luftwaffe during the Second World War for the concentrated deployment of large-caliber anti-aircraft guns to protect strategically important cities from aerial bombardments of the anti-Hitler coalition. Also used to coordinate air defense and served as bomb shelters.
"The tower turned out to be a tough nut, the bombardment with 152mm artillery was completely ineffective, then 105 concrete 203mm caliber mortars were fired on the flot turm, as a result, the corner of the tower was destroyed, but it continued to live until the garrison capitulated. It was the site of the Weidling command post.Our air defense towers in Humboldhain and Friedrichshain our troops bypassed, and until surrender these structures remained on the German-controlled territory of the city. " Alexey Isayev is a historian. In the foreground, the destroyed IS-2!
Tempelhof Airport. Marshal Chuikov: "An hour before the start of the artillery preparation for taking the Tempelhof airfield, the flag-bearer of the 220th Guards Infantry Regiment of the 79th Guards Rifle Division, Sergeant Nikolai Masalov, brought the flag of the regiment to the Landver Canal ... The path to the center of the Tiergarten from the south was blocked by a deep one with steep concrete concreted banks The bridges and approaches to it are densely mined and tightly covered with machine gun fire ... There were about fifty minutes before the attack of the guardsmen, there was silence, like before a storm, disturbing, tense, and suddenly in this silence, the child's voice was heard from somewhere in the ground, the child's voice sounded deaf and inviting, crying, he repeated one word that everyone understood: "Mutter, mutter ..." "It seems that it's on that side of the channel," - he said to his comrades: "Allow me to save the child, I know where he is." It was dangerous to crawl to the Broken Bridge.The square in front of the bridge was shot through by machine guns and automatic cannons, not to mention mines and land mines hidden under the ground. Sergeant Masalov crawled forward, clinging to the asphalt, at times hiding in shallow craters from shells and mines. ... Here he crossed the embankment and took cover behind the ledge of the concrete wall of the canal. And then again I heard the child. He called his mother plaintively, persistently. He seemed to rush Masalov. Then the guardsman rose to his full height-tall, mighty. The military orders flashed on their chests. This will not stop bullets or shards ...
Masalov spread across the canal barrier ... A few more minutes passed. For a moment the enemy machine guns fell silent. Breathless, the guards waited for the child's voice, but it was quiet. We waited five, ten minutes ... Is it really useless for Masalov to risk? .. Several guardsmen, without a word, prepared for the throw. And at that time everyone heard Masalov's voice: "Attention! I'm with a child. Cover me with fire. Machine gun on the right, on the balcony of the house with columns. Shut up his throat! ... "Then the artillery preparation began. Thousands of shells and thousands of mines seemed to cover the exit of the Soviet soldier from the death zone with a three-year-old German girl in his arms. Her mother probably tried to escape from the Tiergarten, saving her daughter, she hid under the bridge and died there. Passing the girl to the nurse, Sergeant Masalov again stood at the flag of the regiment, ready to throw forward. "
The river Spree with its high stone banks crosses Berlin from the southeast of its outskirts to the north-west and passes through the city center. Within the city limits, the Spree had to force both the troops advancing from the north and the troops advancing from the east. The troops of Colonel-General Berzarin came first to Berlin within the limits of Berlin. In the photo: before the Reichstag, the pit of the unfinished line of the Berlin metro, the work was conducted in an open manner.
One of the "finds" of the Germans in the defense of their capital was a tank company "Berlin", assembled from tanks that could not move independently. They were dug at the crossroads of the streets and used as stationary firing points in the west and east of the city. Such a pillbox could connect with the cellars of neighboring houses. The crew consisted of a gunner, charging and commander. In total, the company "Berlin" consisted of 10 tanks "Panther" and 12 tanks Pz. IV.
Technique in the battles for Berlin: Sturm of Berlin
Even the struggle for Stalingrad is inferior to the battles for Berlin in terms of basic quantitative and qualitative indicators: the number of troops involved in combat, the number of combat equipment involved, and the size of the city and the nature of its construction.
To some extent, with the storming of Berlin, we will compare the storming of Budapest in January-February and Koenigsberg in April 1945. The battles of modernity, such as the fighting for Beirut in 1982, remain a pale shadow of the grandiose fights of the Second World War.
Sealed "Strasse"
To prepare Berlin for defense, the Germans had 2.5 months, during which the front was on the Oder, 70 km from the city. This preparation was by no means an improvisation. The Germans developed a whole system of converting their and other people's cities into "festungs" - fortresses. This is the strategy followed by Hitler in the second half of the war. Cities-"fortresses" were to be defended in isolation, supplied by air. Their goal is to keep road nodes and other important points.
The Berlin fortifications of April-May 1945 are typical enough for the German "festoons" - massive barricades, as well as residential and administrative buildings prepared for defense. The barricades in Germany were built on an industrial scale and had nothing to do with the piles of rubbish that the streets block during the period of revolutionary unrest. Berlin, as a rule, had 2? 2.5 m in height and 2? 2.2 m in thickness. They were built of wood, stone, sometimes rails and shaped iron. Such a barricade easily withstood the shots of tank guns and even divisional artillery caliber 76? 122 mm.
Part of the streets were completely blocked by barricades, without leaving even the passage. On the main thoroughfares, the barricades still had a three-meter wide passage, prepared for a rapid closure by the car with earth, stones and other materials. Approaches to the barricades were mined. It can not be said that these Berlin fortifications were a masterpiece of engineering. In the Breslau area, Soviet troops were faced with truly cyclopean barricades, entirely cast from concrete. In their design, huge moving parts were to be thrown across the passage. In Berlin, there was nothing of the sort. The reason is quite simple: German military commanders believed that the fate of the city would be decided on the Oder front. Accordingly, the main efforts of the engineering troops were concentrated there, on the Seelow Heights and on the perimeter of the Soviet Kiustrow bridgehead.
Company of fixed tanks
Approaches to bridges through canals and exits from bridges also had barricades. In the buildings that were to become the pillars of defense, brick windows were laid with bricks. In the laying left one or two embrasures for firing from small arms and anti-tank grenade launchers - faust patrons. Of course, not all Berlin houses have undergone such a restructuring. But the Reichstag, for example, was prepared for defense well: the huge windows of the building of the German parliament were immured.
One of the "finds" of the Germans in the defense of their capital was a tank company "Berlin", assembled from tanks that could not move independently. They were dug at the crossroads of the streets and used as stationary firing points in the west and east of the city. In total, the company "Berlin" consisted of 10 tanks "Panther" and 12 tanks Pz. IV.
In addition to special defensive structures in the city, there were air defense facilities suitable for land battles. This is primarily about the so-called flakturmah - massive concrete towers about 40 m high, on the roof of which anti-aircraft guns were installed to 128-mm caliber. In Berlin, built three such giant structures. It is Flakturm I near the zoo, Flakturm II in Friedrichshain in the east of the city and Flakturm III in Humboldhain in the north. (On the anti-aircraft turrets of the Third Reich, "PM" wrote in detail in No. 3 for 2009. - Ed.)
Forces of the "fortress Berlin"
However, any engineering facilities are absolutely useless, if there is no one to defend them. This was the biggest problem for the Germans. During the Soviet era, the number of defenders of the capital of the Reich was usually estimated at 200,000. However, this figure seems highly overstated. The testimony of the last commandant of Berlin, General Weidling and other captured officers of the Berlin garrison, leads to a figure of 100-120 thousand people and 50-60 tanks at the beginning of the assault. For the defense of Berlin, so many defenders were clearly not enough. It was obvious to professionals from the very beginning. In a summary of the generalized combat experience of the storming city of the 8th Guards Army, it was stated: "For the defense of such a large city surrounded on all sides, there was not enough force to defend each building, as was the case in other cities, so the enemy defended mainly groups quarters, and inside them are separate buildings and objects ... "Soviet troops, storming Berlin, numbered, according to April 26, 1945, 464 000 people and about 1500 tanks. The 1st and 2nd Guards Tank Armies, the 3rd and 5th Shock Armies, the 8th Guards Army (all - the First Byelorussian Front), as well as the 3rd Guards Tank and part of the forces participated in the storming of the city 28th Army (1st Ukrainian Front). In the last two days of the assault, parts of the First Polish Army participated in the battles.
Evacuated explosives
One of the mysteries of the battles for Berlin is the preservation of the integrity and safety of many bridges across the Spree and the Landver Canal. Given that the banks of the Spree in the center of Berlin were clothed in stone, forcing the river outside the bridges would be a daunting task. The clue was given by General Weidling in the Soviet captivity. He recalled: "None of the bridges was prepared for the explosion. Goebbels instructed this organization "Shpur", in connection with the fact that during the explosions of bridges, military units inflicted economic damage on the surrounding possessions. It turned out that all the materials for the preparation of bridges for the explosion, as well as the ammunition that had been prepared for this, were removed from Berlin during the evacuation of the Shpur institutions. It should be noted that this concerned bridges in the central part of the city. On the outskirts everything was different. So, for example, all the bridges across the Berlin-Spandauer-Schiffars canal in the northern part of the city were blown up. Troops of the 3rd Shock Army and the 2 nd Guards Tank Army had to direct the ferry. In general, it can be noted that the first days of the struggle for Berlin are connected with the forcing of water obstacles on its outskirts.
Into the thick of quarters
By April 27, Soviet troops basically overcame areas with low-rise and thin buildings and deepened into the densely built-up central districts of Berlin. The Soviet tank and combined arms armies coming from different directions aimed at a single point in the center of the city - the Reichstag. In 1945 it lost its political significance and had a conventional value as a military object. However, it is the Reichstag that appears in the orders as the goal of the offensive of Soviet formations and associations. In any case, moving from different sides to the Reichstag, the Red Army troops created a threat to the bunker of the Fuhrer under the Reich Chancellery.
The central figure in street battles was the assault team. Zhukov's directive recommended the inclusion in assault detachments of 8-12 guns with a caliber of 45 to 203 mm, 4-6 mortars 82-120 mm. The assault teams included engineers and "chemists" with smoke bombs and flamethrowers. Tanks also became unchanged participants in these groups. It is well known that their main enemy in city battles in 1945 was the manual anti-tank weapon - the faust-ammunition. Shortly before the Berlin operation, the troops conducted experiments to screen tanks. However, they did not give a positive result: even with the destruction of the grenade of the faust patron on the screen, the armor of the tank made its way. Nevertheless, in some parts screens were still installed - rather for the psychological support of the crew, rather than for real protection.
Did the "faustnikas" burn tank armies?
Loss of tank armies in battles over the city can be estimated as moderate, especially in comparison with fighting in the open area against tanks and anti-tank artillery. So, Bogdanov's 2nd Guards Tank Army in battle for the city lost about 70 tanks from the faust patrons. At the same time, she acted in isolation from the combined arms armies, relying only on her motorized infantry. The share of tanks killed by "faustnikami" in other armies was less. In total during the time of street fighting in Berlin from April 22 to May 2, the army of Bogdanov lost 104 tanks and self-propelled guns (16% of the fleet of combat vehicles at the beginning of the operation) irretrievably. Katukov's 1st Guards Tank Army during the street fighting also lost 104 armored cars (15% of the combat vehicles that were in service at the beginning of the operation). The 3rd Guards Tank Army Rybalko in Berlin from April 23 to May 2 irretrievably lost 99 tanks and 15 ACS (23%). The total losses of the Red Army from the faust patrons in Berlin can be estimated at 200? 250 tanks and ACS from almost 1800, lost for the operation as a whole. In short, there is no reason to say that the Soviet tank armies were burnt by the "Faustians" in Berlin.
However, in any case, the massive use of faust patrons made it difficult to use tanks, and if the Soviet troops relied only on armored vehicles, battles for the city would have become much more bloody. It should be noted that the faust patrons were used by the Germans not only against tanks, but also against infantry. Forced to go ahead of the armored vehicles infantry fell under the hail of shots of "Faustians". That is why the barrel and rocket artillery rendered invaluable assistance in the assault. The specificity of the city battles forced the divisional and attached artillery to be put on direct fire. Paradoxically, this sounds, but the guns on direct guidance were sometimes more effective than tanks. The report of the 44th Guards cannon artillery brigade on the Berlin operation indicated: "The use of the enemy by the Panzerfausts" led to a sharp increase in losses in tanks - limited visibility makes them easily vulnerable. Direct-fire guns do not suffer from this shortcoming, their losses, compared to tanks, are small. " This was not an unfounded statement: the brigade lost only two guns in street battles, one of them was struck by the enemy with a faust patron.
The brigade was armed with 152-mm ML-20 howitzer howitzers. Actions of artillerymen can be illustrated by the following example. The battle for the barricade in Sarland Strasse did not begin very well. "Faustniki" hit two IS-2 tanks. Then the gun of the 44th Brigade was exposed to direct light at 180 m from the fortification. With 12 shells, the artillerymen pierced a passage in the barricade and destroyed its garrison. The brigade's tools were also used to destroy the buildings turned into strong points.
From the "Katyusha" direct fire
Earlier it was said that the Berlin garrison defended only some buildings. If such a strongpoint could not be taken by the assault group, it was simply destroyed by direct artillery. So, from one strongpoint to another, the storming marched towards the center of the city. In the end, even "Katyushas" began to be put on direct guidance. The M-31 large-caliber missile shells were installed in houses on the windowsills and shot at the buildings opposite. The optimal distance was 100-150 m. The missile had time to accelerate, break through the wall and explode inside the building. This led to the collapse of partitions and ceilings and, as a consequence, the death of the garrison. At smaller distances the wall did not break through and the case was limited to cracks on the facade. It is here that one of the answers to the question as to why Kuznetsov's 3rd shock army was the first to leave the Reichstag. Parts of this army paved their way through the Berlin streets with 150 direct-fire projectiles M-31UK (improved accuracy). Other armies also shot dozens of M-31 shells with direct fire.
To victory - ahead!
Another "destroyer of buildings" was heavy artillery. As indicated in the report on the actions of the artillery of the First Byelorussian Front, "in the battles for the fortress of Poznan and in the Berlin operation, both during the operation itself and especially in the battles for the city of Berlin, the artillery of large and special power was decisive." In total, during the storming of the German capital, 38 heavy guns, that is, the 203 mm B-4 howitzer of the 1931 model, were exposed to direct light. These powerful tools on the caterpillar track often flicker in the newsreel devoted to the battles for the German capital. The calculations of the B-4 were acting boldly, even boldly. For example, one of the guns was installed at the intersection of Liden Strasse and Ritter Strasse 100-150 m from the enemy. Six of the shells were enough to destroy the house prepared for defense. Turning the gun, the battery commander destroyed three more stone buildings.
In Berlin, there was only one structure that stood the blow of B-4, it was the air defense tower Flakturm am Zoo, it was Flakturm I. Part of the 8th Guards and 1st Guards Tank Armies came to the Berlin Zoo. The tower was a tough nut to them. The bombardment of its 152-mm artillery was completely inconclusive. Then 105 flasks of 203 mm caliber were fired by direct flapping. As a result, the corner of the tower was destroyed, but it continued to live up to the surrender of the garrison. Until the last moment, it housed the Weidling command post. The air defense towers in Humboldhain and Friedrichshain our troops bypassed, and until surrender, these structures remained on the German-controlled territory of the city.
Garrison Flakturm am Zoo is in some ways lucky. The tower did not fall under the fire of Soviet artillery of special power, a 280-mm mortar Br-5 and 305-mm howitzer Br-18 of the 1939 model. No one has already placed these guns on direct light. They fired from positions in 7? 10 km from the battlefield. The 8th Guards Army was given the 34th separate division of special power. His 280-mm mortars in the last days of the storming of Berlin were beaten at the Potsdam railway station. Two such projectiles struck the asphalt streets, floors and exploded in the underground halls of the station, located at a depth of 15 m.
Why not "smeared" Hitler?
Three battalions of 280 mm and 305 mm guns were concentrated in the 5th Shock Army. The army of Berzarin was advancing to the right of Chuikov's army in the historical center of Berlin. Heavy guns were used to destroy solid stone buildings. The 280-mm mortar batted the Gestapo building, fired over a hundred shells and achieved six direct hits. The division of 305-mm howitzers only on the penultimate day of the assault, on May 1, shot 110 shells. In fact, only the lack of accurate information about the location of the Führer's bunker prevented the early completion of the battles. Soviet heavy artillery had the technical capabilities to bury Hitler and his retinue in a bunker or even smear them in a thin layer over the labyrinths of the last refuge of the "demon-possessed Fuhrer".
It was the army of Berzarin, advancing in the direction of the Reichstag, came closest to the bunker of Hitler. This caused the last splash in the activity of the Luftwaffe in battles for the city. On April 29, groups of FV-190 assault aircraft and Me-262 jet fighters attacked the combat formations of the troops of the 5th Shock Army. The reactive Messerschmitts belonged to the I group of the JG7 squadron from the Reich Air Defense, but they could no longer influence the course of the hostilities. The next day, on April 30, the Fuhrer committed suicide. On the morning of May 2, the Berlin garrison capitulated.
The total loss of two fronts in the battle for Berlin can be estimated at 50-60 thousand people killed, wounded and missing. Were these losses justified? Certainly. The fall of Berlin and the death of Hitler meant the demoralization of the German army and its surrender. Undoubtedly, without the active use of various techniques, the loss of Soviet troops in street fighting would have been much higher.

Troopers said the motorcyclist took a turn too fast, fell off the bike and the bike slid into the bus. The motorcyclist was charged with driving too fast for conditions, although Highway Patrol said he was not speeding.
Spartanburg District 5 representative Melissa Robinette said a special needs bus carrying three students was involved.
She said no one on the bus was injured.
The motorcyclist was able to walk away from the crash, troopers said.

In barely hushed tones, a burly man adorned with the heavy golden braids of an British Officer spoke to the innocent young woman at his side "I never did see the point of a Kindred wedding. Frankly, where is the precedent? If all of the 'descended from Caine' hogwash was true, it isn't as if HE married. Why in my time, if a relationship of convince lasted more than a decade, it was a cause for scandal!"
The young woman blushed at the the General's words. "Lord Collinsworth, forgive me, but is this not a time for celebration?" The officer smiled slyly, gently, but appropriately rebuked. "Yes, yes, of course Lucinde. I am acting as a poor tutor. Please do not think that I would do your Sire a disservice. Let us focus on the nuptials." With this said, both guests turned their attention to the wedding party and the rest of the guests spread throughout the garden. The fashion of the female guests seemed to be inspired by the earlier dress of the ancient Greeks, fused with the late regency period. The men on the other hand, wore a mis-mash of styles, with the only theme being the extravagance of their attire.
"Lord Collinworth, if I may ask, why are we here? Do you know…" her words were cut short by both the sound of the concealed Harpist and the General's caution "Hush girl, it's about to begin." With all attention now turning to the trio of figures beneath the garden's main arbour, it was easy to see the skeletal man clad in the robes of a Cardinal. As he raised both arms into the air, a gesture to maintain attention, the Cardinal spoke in courtly french "Lords and Ladies….Your attention. We gather here, for this joyous night, so that two may declare their love before you all!"
The Cardinal stepped back, and guided each of the happy, soon to be wed, couple forward for the guests to see. "I present the suitor, Master Warlock, Nicolai Antonescu, and the Honourable Mademoiselle Alicia …" The rapport of the first musket shot rang loudly enough to silence everyone within the garden. The second, was mistaken for an echo of the first, having happened so fast. Both shots having found their mark, the Bride dropped to the ground, a headless and rapidly ageing husk. A sign that she had not been turned so long ago.

text: When it was all said and done, the whole game seemed almost anti-climactic. There is little wonder why the Tampa Bay players seem so down - the Senators hardly played their best today, and yet came away with the 5-2 victory in almost pedestrian fashion.There isn't that much to say. In the first third of the game we basically sucked. We gave the puck away I don't know how many times, and couldn't win a face-off to save our lives. And yet we were only down 2-1.In the end our big players, Havlat and Spezza made big plays, scoring and setting up some goals, and you could literally see the other side hoisting up the white flag.It is difficult to imagine having too much difficulty putting this away come Saturday.

Notice about Significant Change Consultation (Selective Schools Expansion Fund)
Notice about Selective Schools Expansion Fund Application
Having given the matter a great deal of thought, the school has decided to apply to the Selective School expansion fund recently launched by the DFE. Our aim is to provide an additional form of entry to the school from 2021. To do this, we are required by law to undertake a 'Significant Change Consultation'. We commenced this process on June 18th 2018, and the consultation will run for 10 weeks until Friday 31st August.
By doing this we would be able to offer 30 more places a year in the school, responding to the ever growing demand for places. By adding a form of entry we will be able to offer more children from Rugby and the surrounding area the opportunity to attend Lawrence Sheriff. We will also be able to further develop our existing policy of offering a growing number of disadvantaged students the opportunity to attend LSS.
In addition to all of the above, the proposals also reflect the need for the school to respond to the continuing growth of Rugby and the significant increase in population that will take place over the next few years.
As always, we will consult fully on these proposals over the coming days and weeks. In our view they represent an exciting next stage in the development of Lawrence Sheriff School.

I've known Bonnie Schwartz for more than 13 years. I met her when our children went to the PR Community Church Playschool together. Being a resident of PR for only one year at the time, I found Bonnie to be a great wealth of knowledge of anything and everything Pound Ridge. There didn't seem to be an activity or organization she wasn't familiar with, and 13 years later, she is just as passionate and involved as she was back then.
For many of you who do know Bonnie and for those who don't, Bonnie never says no to anyone or to any cause she can help. With her involvement in PRES PTA, FLMS Association, Girl Scout leader, multiple sports coaching positions, her community involvement with the PR Office of Emergency Management, Neighbor to Neighbor, Pound Ridge Lions, the list goes on. Bonnie has acquired a wealth of knowledge on what is important in our town and what isn't. This involvement is a testament to her dedication to our community and its future.
With Bonnie's drive and passion, she will make a wonderful addition to the Pound Ridge Town Council. Please vote for her on Nov. 5

A man was invited to give a sensual massage to my wife. We agreed with only naked massage without sexual penetration at the first time. He gave her nice oil massage and started pussylips massage with his cockhead only. My wife was getting horny and wet more and more. Then he turned her back like a doggy style and pointed his cockhead at her runny wild open pussylips and he rubbed her pussylips with his big cockhead. I can hardly see whether there was a sexual penetration at that time. I took that photo and left them for a while to give them a free time. When I came back again, it was not the massage anymore but hard fucking…

Fomer New Band of the Day (erm… twice – oops) Vanquish the King have come out of hiatus and released "Dream of Demise" on October 1st. The band has reformed with a new line-up and promises to be even bigger and better than before!
I was duly impressed with their EP a year or so ago, and the song "Dream of Demise" had just been released at that time. It was the kind of sound the band were aiming for, and they're basing new material (currently being recorded) on that style.
As things stand, all music has been recorded for the new release with only vocals to be finished off. If I'm right, it will be called Pessimist. In the meantime, they've dropped a polished version of "Dream of Demise" on bandcamp, downloadable as a "pay what you want" release.

Good morning and happy new week everyone! Hope you all had an amazing weekend! Unfortunately mine was spent finishing up a history assignment that I left till the last minute ( #procrastinator ) and studying while sitting in my pajamas watching the snow fall ( yes that's right. SNOW ) but it's the beginning of a new week, the start of new adventures and new opportunities!
Today I decided to keep it casual and cozy with my favorite Grey Sweatshirt from Calvin Klein Jeans and a pair of Distressed Boyfriend Jeans. I added on my All White Adidas Superstars ( of course ) and my hold-everything Hieleven Bucket Bag, completing the outfit with a simple Grey Watch from Kapten & Son and a pair of glasses ( or else I would be walking around blind )
Happy Monday!

California Beach Vacations Simplified
When we think of California beach vacations, we picture sand, clean water, and lodging so close you can run out to build a sand castle without getting in the car.
The Golden State has so many miles of shoreline that you might think Californians would be dizzy trying to figure out where to spend their vacations, but in fact, much of the coast is rocky, lined with precipitous cliffs or in the middle of a city.
There are still plenty of places to go for your California beach vacations, though. These are some of the best spots for a California Beach Vacation, listed geographically from north to south.Continue to 2 of 11 below.
02 of 11
Irish Beach, Mendocino
Irish Beach is a small vacation rental community south of Mendocino with private entry to the sand. It has great views and is an especially good place to get away with friends and family.Continue to 3 of 11 below.
03 of 11
Dillon Beach, Marin County
Near the mouth of Tomales Bay, the little village of Dillon Beach sits on the hillside above the ocean. It's packed with rental houses and not far from the Tomales oyster farms and Point Reyes. It's just isolated enough - and more than beautiful enough - to have the makings of a truly memorable California beach vacation.
Try Moore Vacation Rentals or Dillon Beach Property Management to find a place to stay at Dillon Beach.Continue to 4 of 11 below.

Santa Cruz
With a reputation as Surf City and a classic oceanfront amusement park, Santa Cruz is as good as it gets for a classic California Beach Vacation.
Learn more in the Santa Cruz Vacation Planner.Continue to 5 of 11 below.
05 of 11
Pismo Beach
Pismo Beach is one of my favorite California beach towns. There's plenty of sand at Pismo - sand to play on, drive on, and zip around in if you have an off-road vehicle.
The charming downtown faces a nice little pier, and you can get a great basket of fish and chips or a cup of clam chowder. What could be more stereotypical?
Learn more in the Pismo Beach Getaway Guide.Continue to 6 of 11 below.
06 of 11
Cayucos is a beach town that's just big enough to have some nice restaurants and interesting shops, yet small enough to be huggably cute.
With a couple of hotels next to the sand, plenty more just a few steps away and a nice little pier and beach, it's got all the ingredients that make for a great California beach vacation.
Learn more in the Cayucos getaway guide.Continue to 7 of 11 below.

Malibu is the iconic California beach town, but it's more residential than touristy. Casa Malibu Inn is the only hotel we can recommend in the area, but you'll find nice beach houses for rent through California Vacation Rentals.

08 of 11
Redondo Beach
Redondo Beach is one of the South Bay beach towns in Los Angeles on the shores of the Santa Monica Bay. It's a great place for a beach vacation, close to the ocean but with lots of things nearby.
There's a nice, sandy beach at Redondo where you can walk, or play volleyball. The fishing pier is full of restaurants and amusements, and you can catch a deep sea fishing boat from the nearby marina.

Mission Beach, San Diego
Not too many tourists know about Mission Beach, on the ocean side of the peninsula that separates Mission Bay from the ocean, making it a great place to enjoy the California beach lifestyle like the locals do. You'll find lots of beach volleyball nets, a nice paved walking trail, the old-fashioned Belmont Park amusement park and lots of ways to just chill out.

California's Best Beach Resorts and Places for Beach Camping
These selected resorts are great places for your California beach vacation, too. Any of them is a good place to lay around, get waited on, go to the spa or maybe play a round of golf. And not much else.
Finding a place in California where you can actually camp on the beach isn't easy. Lots of places will try to make you think they're on the beach when they're so far away you can't even see the ocean. To help you find the places that are actually on the beach, I created these lists of Northern California Beach Campgrounds and Southern California Beach Campgrounds.

Ebola crisis 'still getting worse'
The Ebola crisis in west Africa is still getting worse, the head of a leading charity has said.
An atmosphere of "fear and anxiety" pervades the region, Save the Children chief executive Justin Forsyth said on a trip to Freetown in Sierra Leone.
He said: "I think it's still getting worse. It's going to get even worse before we get on top of it. We are still behind the curve.
More than two million people have been affected by the Ebola crisis
"We are in this race against time. There is enormous fear and anxiety."
Mr Forsyth said he did not leave the country feeling "despair" and reported that there are signs that aid is making a difference, and there is "more action on the ground".
He praised the "inspirational" efforts of staff risking their lives to help bring the crisis under control.
He said: "Save the Children staff who have lost relatives and loved ones have come into work and carried on the fight against Ebola.
"The whole country is mobilising. The international staff who are coming - families back home are very worried. It is an amazingly brave and courageous thing to do. People are putting their lives on the line."
He visited a new treatment centre in Kerry Town, which has been funded by the British Government, built by the Army and is run by Save the Children.
It is expected to open next week.
Mr Forsyth said: "It is an important part of the efforts to have a number of these centres."
On Saturday the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) said it has been "overwhelmed" by the "extraordinary generosity" of the British public after £4 million was donated in just two days to a campaign to help people affected by the Ebola crisis in west Africa.
The UK Government has pledged to match the first £5 million given by the public and its £4 million contribution brings the fund total to £8 million since the campaign was launched on Thursday.
DEC chief executive Saleh Saeed said: "We are extremely grateful to the UK Government for the aid match funding which is a significant boost to the appeal.
"The UK Government will match a further £1 million raised, so we encourage the UK public to donate as soon as possible to double the amount of their donation.
"Our member agencies have already achieved so much - providing protective clothing, educating communities and supporting safe and dignified burials - but there is so much more to do."
A DEC spokesman said its member agencies are scaling up their aid efforts in west Africa, where they have already helped more than 2.5 million people affected by the Ebola crisis, including working in some of the worst-affected and most remote areas of Sierra Leone and Liberia.
So far, almost 5,000 people have been killed by the virus and more than 13,000 have been infected, although experts say the real figures could be much higher.
He said the charity said it had been "overwhelmed" by the "extraordinary generosity" of the British public.
To make a donation to the DEC Ebola Crisis Appeal visit www.dec.org.uk, call the 24 hour hotline on 0370 60 60 900, donate over the counter at any high street bank or post office, or send a cheque. You can also donate £5 by texting the word SUPPORT to 70000.
DEC brings together 13 leading UK aid charities: ActionAid UK, Age International, British Red Cross, Cafod, Care International, Christian Aid, Concern Worldwide, Islamic Relief, Merlin, Oxfam, Plan UK, Save the Children, Tearfund and World Vision.

a hurry.

So you're looking at everything to get an idea about the best deals on free debt consolidation available on the market. Well, let's get to know why spring offerings in the first place. Our flashy lifestyles lead to overspending and that in turn leads to debts in interest rates are the murderers end. Soon most of our budget to make any payments and an impaired credit history, the search for any company that would give us more to pay some of our bills is a problem.
Trumpeting the arrival
The debt consolidation would be a good company that offers free help for debt consolidation. Even developed countries like the U.S. and Canada have free enterprise organizations such as Canadian building debt offering help to people debtors. Sometimes a person is a bit uncertain about the number of debts taken, the different interest rates for each loan, etc. Juggling the lot ends in not making some payments to make some other, thus giving your car a bad credit history. So what to do? Seek professional help to get good advice.
Food For Thought
Always remember that their economic future is in their hands, their decision affects their lives.
Never rush to make a decision.
Always look on the bottom Companys well. A good company will give you the best deal.
Go in debt counseling to stop repeating the same mistakes.
Speak freely with the representative of the company.
Do not go with the companies, calling for a joining fee with the promise of a refund, which can be a swindler. They offer deals unrealistic to resort to gimmicks to fool you cheap. Ask you to put all your debts into a single cat with them as that would result in a higher processing fee for handling multiple accounts. Large set of punitive sanctions for missing a payment. Ask about all sorts of personal details. Offer services that cause a conflict of their concerns with the business. The neglect of its own, while they are only interested in collecting their monthly fee.
These help loans to at least ensure that you are taking the first step towards establishing your life in order. Debt consolidation will save you unpleasant calls from lenders and stress. Manage your finances would be easier than before. So do not expect to be buried under the burden of debt, go for debt relief and scabies, Pending due to its ease.
About the Author:
Best free debt consolidation companies such as free Canada debt consolidation firms provide free debt consolidation help and at times free debt counseling to debt ridden people so that they can get their lives back in order.

Get Ahold of Yourself
Does catching my husband masturbating mean I'm not enough for him?
Get "Dear Prudence" delivered to your inbox each week; click here to sign up. Please send your questions for publication to firstname.lastname@example.com. (Questions may be edited.)
Dear Prudence,
I am a twentysomething woman who recently got married. I love my husband dearly and our intimate relationship seemed to be fine. However, an incident occurred that I just can't get over. Late one night after watching television in another room, I walked into our bedroom and discovered my husband taking care of his "needs" himself. I ran right out of the bedroom, extremely embarrassed and shocked, because it was totally unexpected and made me feel I wasn't enough to fulfill his needs. (I had been previously told by my hubby that he did that sort of thing only when I was "out of commission" for a week or so once a month.) Afterward, when I tried to let him know how I felt, he told me that it didn't have anything to do with me, it just "feels good" and that I "would never understand." That may be true, but it still hurt my feelings and I have repeatedly tried telling him so since the incident. Now I'm afraid to go into our bedroom when he's in there by himself. Am I wrong to feel this way?
—Dazed and Confused Newlywed
Dear Dazed,
If this were Victorian England, it would be understandable that you fled the bedroom after finding your husband engaged in the shame of self-abuse. Since it's not, and all he was doing was going solo—and you say he's not withholding sex from you—you're beating this to death. He's right, it's not about you, he's just a young guy who's overflowing with sexual energy. You, too, are young but inexperienced and perhaps by nature a little prudish. One of the great delights of marriage is that it is a safe and loving place to experience easy intimacy with another. Instead of making this unexpected encounter one of horror and humiliation, why not use it as a lesson that you need to be more open to your husband? To help you get there, go to a bookstore and look at some of the books on sexuality—that old chestnut The Joy of Sex would be a good place to start. And for goodness' sake, don't be afraid to enter your own bedroom; maybe next time you can offer to give your husband a hand.
Dear Prudence,
I work as a customer-service manager for a family-owned company in a small, rural community that has been in business for more than 50 years. I have reluctantly accepted that the business is little more than an extension of this family's home life, and there are issues. I am expected to maintain a positive customer-service culture, yet the office is crawling with disobedient children and grandchildren, barking dogs, and screaming parents. Clients must walk through or step over dog urine and excrement, avoid being run over by kids riding office chairs up and down the halls, and contend with a general sense of mayhem that I, as a mere employee, have no authority to control. I have shared my concerns with the patriarch of the family, but he is a weak and ineffective leader who empathizes but seems powerless to effect change. In this family it's every man (and dog) for himself. I love my customers and feel challenged to turn this ship around. People who are familiar with the situation say I am outnumbered and cannot right a wrong that's been 50 years in the making. Any ideas?
Dear Frazzled,
Customers step over dog excrement? I hope these people are in the fertilizer, not the restaurant-supply, business. Unless you view this job as preparation for being Ozzy Osbourne's personal assistant, how can you stand to show up for work every day? Your friends are right—this is an impossible situation and not yours to fix. Find a place of employment where you can help your customers without having to watch them slip-slide their way to your desk.
Dear Prudence,
I am a college student attending school in the Northeast. I was born and raised in New Orleans, where both my and my fiancee's families still live. I love my city, but these days I find myself hesitant to answer the question, "Where are you from?" Acquaintances and even strangers will immediately ask me painful questions such as, "How were you affected? Was your house destroyed? Did anyone you know die?" These questions are wearing me down. I am blessed that my family is alive and well. Everyone in New Orleans was affected by the flood, but that does not mean we are up for extremely personal interviews. How can I respond to their questions without lying or losing it?
—Searching for Neutral Ground
Dear Neutral,
The difficulty here is that almost everyone meeting someone from New Orleans for the first time will think it rude not to ask about Katrina. So, what to do? I talked with a New Orleanian Slate colleague who is being driven crazy by the same things you are. He helped come up with a way to deflect the questions:
Acquaintance: So, where are you from?
You: New Orleans.
A: Oh—do you have family there? Were they affected by Katrina?
Y: I do have family there and everyone's OK. Thanks for asking. Where are you from?
A: Chicago. But did your house get flooded? Did your pets drown? Does your family have electricity? Are they going to stay in New Orleans? Were they in the Superdome? Is everyone terrified about the next hurricane season?
Y: I'm sorry, I have such a bad case of Katrina fatigue that I'd rather talk about something else. So, what part of Chicago are you from?
Dear Prudie,
I've been divorced for 18 months and have recently become involved with a wonderful man. He's everything I seek in a mate: kind, upstanding, handsome, romantic, witty, and funny. He adores my child from my first marriage. On top of it all, he's independently wealthy and quite generous, a keeper in every sense of the word. Here's the problem. My ex-husband and I have always been friendly and he recently decided (with my input) to break up with his serious girlfriend of more than a year. He's constantly lamenting the lack of women who share his quirks, values, and interests. Meanwhile, I have found myself wondering what was so bad about him in the first place. Prudie, I am uniquely poised to rekindle an old flame and reunite a broken family. Should I share my feelings or let the moment pass?
Dear Bewildered,
Well, what was so bad about him in the first place? You were once so in love with this man that you married and had a child with him. Then you became so fed up that you divorced him. Only you can say if it was a mistake, after all, to end the marriage. As for Mr. Wonderful, he does sound wonderful, perhaps a little too wonderful. While he may truly be as fantastic as he seems, you know that eventually his own quirks and annoying qualities will emerge. What is striking, however, is that in this glorious time before you see anything negative in your new suitor, you are contemplating whether to try to put your marriage back together. Imagine yourself back with your ex. If doing so makes you feel you don't want to let the possibility of reuniting pass, then broach the subject with him. But if you do go ahead, go slowly. It would be cruel to raise your child's hopes that Mom and Dad will get back together if you are simply pursuing a whim.

Princess Cut Engagement Rings
Incredible sparkle with a touch of class
Princess cut engagement rings are currently the second most popular style of ring for a couple of reasons – they're very nearly as sparkly as round brilliant diamonds, but they're almost always priced much lower. Because of their popularity there's a huge range of setting styles available for Princess cuts, from the classic and simple solitaire setting, to impressive double-halo rings that sparkle from any angle.

The Princess cut shape is also known as 'modified square brilliant' and the 'brilliant' part of the name doesn't just mean that they are really, really good. 'Brilliant' is a technical jewelry term which indicates that the angles between the facets (sides) of the stone have been carefully calculated to reflect and sparkle as much as possible.
While the Princess cut isn't quite as good at reflecting light as the 'round brilliant' shape, diamond cutters have continued to research and optimize the Princess cut over the last 30 years, so that it now comes a very close second.
What's good about princess cut engagement rings?
Princess cut diamonds are the second most popular shape after round brilliants, and this popularity means that there's a large selection of stones available to choose from.
Diamond cutters choose some of the highest quality stones to be made into Princess cut diamonds, so if you know what to look for you can be sure to find a great stone that fits your required specs within your budget.
The table on the right shows the price difference at one of my recommended retailers between a round brilliant diamond, the most common shape and an princess cut diamond of the same size and quality:
- 1 carat
- Color F
- Clarity VS1
Round Brilliant
That's a huge difference, especially considering that the Princess cut is considered to have 'optical performance' and sparkle very close to the round brilliant.
Although the exact difference will depend on the specs of the stone that you're looking at, you can typically expect to save 25-33% on the price of a diamond by buying a princess cut than round brilliant of equivalent size and quality. Not too shoddy!
There are a number of factors that contribute to why the Princess cut is less expensive that the round, but a big one is that there is much less wastage of the original rough diamond when creating a princess cut.
This is the shape that the diamond cutters begin to work with and a big part of their job is ensuring that as much of the rough stone is used as possible. Being efficient and reducing the amount of the rough stone that is wasted means that a larger finished stone can be produced, which allows them to sell the diamond for more money as carat weight is a big factor in the sale price of any diamond.
The pavilion angles of a Princess cut (the long, lower half of a diamond) mirror the rough cut stone's angles very closely, so the cutters don't need to trim away large areas like they do with the round brilliant. The round brilliant loses large portions of the corners of the rough diamond as the cutter trims it to the round shape.
While a Princess cut diamond may only lose 10-20% or the rough diamond, a round brilliant may lose up to 50%. So, for a given finished size, a diamond cutter has to start off with a much larger, and more expensive, uncut diamond crystal.
Brilliance and sparkle
A huge plus to the Princess cut's excellent brilliance is that the fire and scintillation that you see as it reflects the light can help disguise flaws in the stone itself.
Minor inclusions and lower colour gradings will be hidden by the sparkle, which is definitely not the case for all diamond shapes. For shapes with less sparkle e.g. the emerald cut, you need to go for a higher quality, and therefore more expensive stone, as any imperfections in clarity or colour are much more likely to be visible.
What's bad about princess cut engagement rings?
This shouldn't be too much of an issue as the 'prongs' on most Princess cut diamond settings cover the corners, protecting them. When choosing your Princess cut setting though, good corner coverage is something to look out for.
Visible size
As you can see on the image on the left, because the Princess cut has to carry some of its weight in the corners, this leaves less weight available for the 'spread' ie. how tall and wide it is. Technically the surface area of a Princess cut is about 10% less than that of a round brilliant stone.
If visible size is something that you are concerned about and you are worried that going with a Princess cut may compromise on how big the stone looks, then you can alway increase the carat weight of the Princess cut stone slightly and still make a significant saving over a round brilliant stone that looks the same size

A big positive that results from the Princess cut's popularity is that they're available in a wide range of setting styles. This section will feature some of the most popular styles, but it's by no means exhaustive.

The simple design puts maximum focus on the center stone, which means that you need to make sure that your rock is going to sparkle as much as possible!

The big advantage of the bezel setting though is the protection that it offers the center stone. As mentioned earlier, the Princess cut can be fragile on the corners and on the girdle (the exposed edge of the stone). The bezel setting

There are many variations on pavé settings – this one uses a 'millgrain' effect on the edges of the band to give the ring a vintage feel. Others will include a higher number of stones in the pavé itself to up the bling factor.

Channel settings often use round diamonds in the band, but this ring's princess cut stones complement the center stone perfectly.

This ring features baguette diamond side stones, which complement the Princess cut stone well – the long, flat sides of the baguette diamonds will reflect light in big dramatic flashes, a juxtaposition to the continual sparkle of the brilliant-cut Princess cut center stone. One thing to note is that as you add additional stones to a ring, the cost of the setting increases, which decreases your budget for the center stone.

One thing to note is that with a setting like this, the large number of smaller diamonds does increase the price of the setting significantly. However, to balance it out you can choose a slightly smaller center stone without losing any impressiveness, as the rest of the ring will more than make up for it.

Princess cut diamond buying guide
Getting the right diamond can be the difference between proposing with an absolutely dazzling engagement ring and one that is merely… OK. Not all diamonds are created equal, so this section will talk you through the 4Cs in relation to the Princess cut so that you can make sure you get an incredible stone. We're going to look at:
- Cut
- Color
- Clarity
- Carat
Diamond cut is the most important of the 4Cs, as it is the factor that has the biggest effect on how much light is returned to your eye. It's the one area to definitely not scrimp on, as it will have the biggest effect on the impressiveness of your stone. Yes, even more that the carat weight!
Round brilliant stones have got a widely used grading scale for cut quality, developed by the Gemological Institute of America – the GIA – which allows stones to be graded on how well they have been shaped and as a result how much they will sparkle.
Unfortunately there's no equivalent GIA grading scale of cut for Princess cut diamonds, which makes judgeing a stone's cut quality more difficult, but definitely not impossible.
There is a grading scale for stones that have been certified by the AGS, although they are less widespread:
AGS Cut Grading
The AGS's grading scale for Princess cut diamonds runs from 0-10, with 0 being the very best cut and 10 being the worst.
AGS uses lasers and computer modelling to ensuring that the their best stones perform as close to the benchmark round brilliant diamond as possible.
Although they are more difficult to find than GIA-certified stones, if you do find an AGS-certified stone then it will take a lot of the guesswork out of buying your Princess cut diamond. Only around 2% of stones are graded at the top level – 0 – and they are approximately twice the price of a regular Princess cut. Something to bear in mind if you are looking for the best performing stone!
Non-AGS cut grading
This doesn't mean that there is nothing that you can do to judge the quality of a Princess cut diamond if you are looking at a non-AGS certified stone though. There are two more ratios that you can look at to make sure that you are getting a high quality stone with good brilliance and sparkle.
Depth percentage
Depth percentage is the ratio of the depth to the width of the stone. This is an important factor because if the stone is too tall it will let light leak out the bottom of the stone, and if it's too shallow it will reflect light back at the wrong angle – both meaning that there is less light returned to your eyes, reducing the amount the stone appears to sparkle.
Very good
66% – 75%
64% – 76.5%
62% – 78%
Table percentage
If you can, look for a Princess cut with a table percentage within the excellent range below, to ensure that you get the best sparkle. The 'very good' table range will also mean that your diamond will perform well.
Very good
66% – 75%
64% – 77%
62% – 79%
The best way to use the above percentages is to enter them into the 'advanced' options on online jewelers search tools so that you only see stone that fit within the desirable specs. If you can, try and get 'excellent' for both depth percentage and table percentage to ensure that your stone sparkles as brilliantly as possible.
Length / Width Ratio
Although Princess cut diamonds are also known as the 'modified square brilliant cut', some jewelers definition of 'square' can be a little bit wobbly.
One of the big things to look at when buying a princess cut engagement ring is the ratio between the length and the width of the stone
However, with some Princess cut engagement rings, this can be as high as 1: 1.10, which will actually be noticeably rectangular when worn. My recommendation is to go for a length : width ratio of 1:1.05 at the most.
However, as with all things diamond, the less perfect something is, the lower it is priced, so if you are on a strict budget then you may find that there are bargains to be had by going with a higher length : width ratio.
The other circumstance where this can be made to work is if you are going to a setting with side stones, where the flanking stones will give the illusion of a wider center stone, and balance out the difference.
Polish shouldn't be a major factor in choosing your diamond, but it can be a way of choosing between two stones that are other wise very similar. Any stone with a polish grade of Excellent to Good will eye-clean though, so you can comfortably select within that range.
The brilliant cut nature of the Princess means that the light is sliced and diced and reflected back to you as sparkle and fire, which can contribute to hiding the true colour of the stone. This means that you can go slightly lower down the color grading scale and your stone will still look exceedingly white.
Color H is a great balance between colour and value. You can of course go higher, but it will not make a huge difference to the appearance of the diamond once it is set in a setting. Going for a D or an E color (the top grades) means that you are paying for the prestige of knowing that you have a top quality diamond, rather than any actual performance benefit.
Going lower than H will be a more affordable option, but you are more likely to be able to pick up the 'warmer' tones of the stone.
Color E – colorless, but expensive:
Clarity is the least important of the 4Cs in terms of how the diamond actually looks. However, it's often the 4Cs that jewelers make the biggest deal about. It's easy to demonstrate clarity in a stone with a jeweler's loupe (eyeglass) or microscope and show the difference between a VVS1 diamond and a VS2. However, in the real world these stone will look exactly the same and the other Cs (particularly cut) will have a far, far bigger effect on how dazzling your stone is.
For clarity on a Princess cut engagement ring, I recommend going with either a SI1 that you can see is eye-clean (some retailers offer high res images of each individual stone to allow you to check), or VS2 clarity to be extra safe.
One of my recommended retailers, Whiteflash, has the largest in-stock inventory of Ideal cut princess cut diamonds of any retailer in the US, all complete with images and videos so you verify that all are eye-clean and beautiful.
Carat weight is something that people often get overly hung-up on. They want to choose a stone with a certain carat weight, even if it means that they end up making sacrifices on other, more important attributes of the ring.
The relationship between a diamond's carat weight and its visible size isn't always a direct one. When we judge a diamond's size, we look at it from the top – known as the 'face up' position in the jewelry trade. However, much of the weight of a diamond is actually carried on the bottom half of the stone, where it can't be seen.
The images below show the difference in size for Princess cut diamonds at a range of carat weights:
Hopefully you can see that increasing the carat weight doesn't necessarily translate into a much visibly larger diamond. Changing the size from 0.8 carat to 1 carat is an increase in width of less than 0.4mm – less than 10%. However, the difference in price will be much more significant – almost a 100% increase.
See today's prices for a 0.8 carat Princess cut diamond here
Compare to prices for 1 carat Princess cut diamonds
The priority that you place on diamond carat weight and how bit you want to go is totally up to you. However, my recommendation is that you definitely don't make it the most important attribute when choosing your engagement ring. Get the setting you love, find a diamond with a great cut that is going to sparkle brilliantly, make sure that it is eye-clean and has a good color and then see what carat weight you can fit into your budget.
A well-rounded diamond with excellent sparkle will much much more impressive than a big stone with obvious flaws.
Each certificate has a unique report number and detailed information about the stone, covering the four Cs, the height, depth and other info. As well as providing assurance that the stone that you're buying is the quality that you are paying for, a certificate also proves what you're buying is not a substitute.
The lab to trust and to look for certification from is the non-profit Gemological Institute of America (GIA). It's the most internationally recognised and generally seen as the most impartial of all of the gem labs.
The reason that the GIA is so well respected is because most others labs are part of trade bodies that contain jewelry retailers, or are 'for profit'. While the GIA is very consistent with its gradings, the others have a reputation for being overly generous. What the GIA say is merely a diamond with a 'good' cut, maybe be graded 'excellent' by another lab, with an excellently large price to match.
Diamond certificates are what makes buying online safe and the best way to get a fantastic diamond at the lowest price. Knowing that each diamond you're considering has been measured and graded by independent experts allows you to make an informed decision. You can take your time to consider the differences between diamonds and make sure you choose what experts have graded as the best stone, meaning that you get your perfect engagement ring at the best possible price.
Recommended specs
You can of course go higher than these specs, if your budget allows, but for many of the characteristics you are paying for improvements that are very difficult, if not impossible, to see by the naked eye, especially when mounted in a ring setting.

I've enjoyed starting to play with some elements in our lounge before all the decorations go up this weekend. I'm having a leisurely few days ahead of the school holidays slowly getting our home organised and Christmassy! It's had a thorough dusting and some clutter has been removed... I've washed and re-hung the curtains and cleared the decks before all the decs come out!
So my mantle is looking festive and I decided to 'Christmas up' my sofa - I do love a few comfy cushions on my couch!! I was going to sew some cushion covers with some red fleece but when I went to purchase the pads the cost of 2 pads was the same as 2 pre-made red cushions with pads - so I opted for the pre-made red versions to save me some time!
Although not as soft and textural as fleece, I don't really mind as my plan was to always embellish them. I've raided my button stash for cute, shiny, mother of pearl buttons - goodness it's crazy how much joy I get from rooting through my stash of buttons.
After an evening of sewing, we now have a heart and a star (which is somewhat crooked but hey)...
They feel festive without being crazy!!
My sofa normally looks like this - I'm not a fan of the chocolate leather but it was my husband's choice and is very practical. However, I always cover it for extra comfort and warmth!!
After my tweaking today, it has been made all festive! I got the cream throw from the charity shop and the fleece blanket was from Dunelm (where I also got the cushions!).
The cushions were a simple make but giving lots of pleasure. Ideal for snuggling and watching Christmas films this weekend once we've put up the tree!! I hope you are enjoying setting the scene in your home.
