Gibson and the Shivering Soldier
Chapter 3: Une Nouvelle Vie
By train, it was about three and a half hours from Weymouth to Woking, a town twice its size, not far outside London. Its approach on the morning of Wednesday, June 5 1940, was met by a small crowd of women, children, and elderly men, all waving and smiling in greeting, holding out bunches of flowers and bottles of beer to the returning heroes.
William stared at them through the window with a sort of numb disinterest, as if he were observing a party that had nothing to do with him.
He glanced across the creaky little table at Gibson, who was curled up in the opposite seat, his head resting against the window-frame. Almost as soon as he’d sat down, the Frenchman had passed out. The long week on the beach, and the gruelling six weeks of war that had preceded it, had left him exhausted both physically and mentally. As the train pulled into Woking Station, the jolt of the brakes and the metallic shriek of the wheels caused his eyelids to twitch, but failed to wake him from his deep sleep.
For a moment, William considered leaving him there. They were total strangers - William had no obligation to stick by him. But the sight of Gibson’s tired, haggard face made him stay. He didn’t like the thought of him waking up alone, confused, and frightened in a strange country.
“Hey.” Reaching out, William shook Gibson’s shoulder. “Wake up.”
Gibson startled awake. In the light of day, his eyes were green.
“We’ve arrived. Come on.”
Joining the slowly-moving multitude of soldiers, they shuffled off the crowded train and onto the platform. From there, they walked by the long queue of buses and taxes, whose drivers were holding out helpful signs declaring their destinations for the ease of the passing soldiers.
Keeping his hands hidden in his pockets, William started rambling to fill the awkward silence.
“Do you know where we are right now? We’re in Woking. That’s in Surrey. I live in Surrey.” He pointed northwards. “London is over that way. You can’t really see it from here, but trust me, it’s there. I have a little flat in a nice area, near a canal. You can come and stay with me for a few days, if you like. Only for a few days, though.”
He wasn’t sure why he offered Gibson his hospitality. Probably because he knew Gibson couldn’t understand a word he was saying, so he felt safe and comfortable making promises that he couldn’t keep, knowing he could change his mind without Gibson really knowing. If their relationship soured and he had to throw Gibson out on the street, Gibson would probably blame himself for his own lack of English-speaking skills, rather than blame William for being unreliable.
“You can talk now, you know. Speak as much French as you like. The cat’s out of the bag - you don’t have to pretend any more.”
Gibson simply looked at him, uncomprehending. William gave up.
They caught a bus to another suburb, and from there, walked to William’s flat. While Gibson hovered anxiously behind him, glancing up and down the street, William found the spare key under a flower-pot and unlocked the door. Upon opening it, he was immediately greeted by a small pile of unread letters. He scooped them up.
“Come on in.”
Gibson followed him inside. It was an ordinary, somewhat poky flat with one bedroom and one bathroom. The living room overlooked the street, while the kitchen (which contained a table and two chairs) overlooked a tiny garden that was all weeds and cracked concrete slabs. It had the comfortable but somewhat sparse furnishings of a man who was sensible but very much single. A man who knew how to cook and clean, but didn’t cook or clean for anyone but himself.
As he tossed the unopened letters on the dresser and hung up his jacket on the wall, William still felt the same sense of detachment, as if his mind and body were working independently of each other, and he was merely an observer to a scene over which he had no control.
“It’s not much, but it’ll have to do,” he said. “I don’t have a guest room, unfortunately, so you’ll have to sleep on the sofa. I used to live on the family estate, out in the countryside, but my parents and I...we’re not on the best of terms. Suffice to say I won’t be inheriting any land.”
He snorted with amusement at himself.
“I’m not sure why I told you that. Maybe it’s easier to confide in someone who doesn’t understand a word you’re saying. Anyway, this is my home, and now it’s yours too. For as long as you need it, I mean.”
Not saying a word, Gibson took off his grimy boots and set them aside, then hung up his jacket next to William’s. His thick khaki shirt was unbuttoned, showing the sleeveless white shirt underneath, grubby with sweat and dirt. Standing in an enclosed room, William noticed for the first time that Gibson smelled. The aura of petrol and the sea and a week’s worth of missed baths hung about him.
“The bathroom’s that way, through my room,” said William, “Run yourself a bath. Understand, ‘bath’? I’ll have mine afterwards.”
He went into the kitchen, checking that the taps and gas stove still worked. But Gibson followed him nervously.
“Can you understand anything I’m saying? Anything at all?” William sighed. “Listen, you’re not sleeping on my furniture until you’ve washed. Go and clean yourself up. This way.”
He ushered Gibson through the bedroom and into the bathroom. Along the way, he grabbed a pair of pyjamas from the wardrobe and thrust them into Gibson’s arms, along with a towel from the cupboard. He started running a bath.
“There. Try not to use too much water. In the meantime, I’ll fix us something to eat.”
But Gibson hung back, hugging the folded pyjamas and towel to his chest. He was trying not to look at the running taps. Realising the problem, William quickly turned off the flow.
“You don’t want to sit in it? That’s alright. Here.” He placed a sponge on the rim of the bathtub. “Use that. Then you can just stand in the tub.”
Leaving him to it, William returned to the kitchen. He rummaged through the cupboards, taking stock of what tinned fish and canned soups he had.
“Two mouths to feed now,” he muttered.
Turning on the stove, he poured a can of baked beans into a saucepan and let it simmer. He opened a block of processed pork, cut it up, and began frying the slices, filling the flat with the tantalising smell of browning meat. He tried not to listen to the gentle splashes of Gibson washing himself.
In a strange way, he felt responsible for Gibson. He wasn’t sure why - perhaps it was their difference in rank that evoked a sense of duty. William was a commissioned officer. Gibson was just some poor conscript who’d never expected to pick up a rifle in his life, let alone fire it. He and William had lived through the same utter hell at Dunkirk, but they’d arrived there very differently.
The pork was starting to turn crispy at the corners. William nudged them with his spatula. Without warning, an image flashed through his mind. The sinking Destroyer. The soldiers jumping off and swimming for their lives. The oil slick darkening the waves. The sea bursting into flames, burning the swimmers with it. He squeezed his eyes shut, and took a deep breath. He tried to still his hands. His appetite had fled.
Gibson ventured into the kitchen, wearing the pyjamas. His dark curls were damp and flat. He looked clean. William set a plate of food on the table.
“There. It’s the best I could do. I’ll go shopping for fresh food tomorrow. Hopefully not everything’s been rationed yet.”
Gibson looked around for a second plate, confused.
“Oh, don’t worry. I’m not hungry,” said William. “You go ahead and eat. I’ll take a minute to myself.”
“Merci,” said Gibson. His voice was soft and gentle.
“Don’t mention it.”
While Gibson ate, William had a brisk bath and a change of clothes. He put on a button-down shirt and a knitted vest, then a cardigan. He looked at his reflection in the mirror - every inch an ordinary civilian - and didn’t recognise it. Surely this man wasn’t the same one who’d been terrified and shivering on the Moonstone? The same one who’d accidentally pushed a teenage boy to his death down some stairs?
He emerged from the bedroom to see Gibson standing in the living room, peeping through the net curtains at the street outside.
“Everything alright?” he asked.
Startled, Gibson let the curtains fall back into place. He looked guilty, like a child who’d been caught snooping.
“Don’t worry,” said William, “You’ll be safe here.” He sat down on the sofa, and pulled out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter. “Want one?”
Gibson nodded, and sat beside him. He placed the offered cigarette between his lips, and leaned closer so that William could light it. William’s gaze shifted from the flame to the face behind it - to the green eyes and sculpted features. The Frenchman was handsome.
The two men shifted apart, and sat smoking at opposite ends of the sofa.
Tumblr media
“I’ve forgotten my manners,” William sighed, “We’ve known each other for a whole day and I haven’t even introduced myself. Forgive me. My name is William.”
Gibson looked at him blankly. He’d said too many words, too quickly - they’d all blurred together in Gibson’s ears.
“William,” the officer repeated slowly and clearly, tapping his chest with a finger. “William.”
Gibson brightened.
“Guillaume!” he echoed.
“Yes. Yes, that’s right. Guillaume. What’s your real name? Jean? Pierre? Louis? Philippe?”
Gibson’s smile faded, perhaps wondering if William was mocking him somehow.
“Alright, then. I’ll keep calling you ‘Gibson’. Who’s waiting for you back in France? Wife? Kids? Mama and papa? Are they alive? Do you need to get back to them?”
Gibson said nothing. But his large eyes spoke of falling bombs and burning streets. A father found crushed in his armchair beneath the rubble of his living room, and a mother whose embrace he would never feel again.
William cleared his throat uncomfortably.
“What did you do back in France, anyway? Builder? Baker? Ballroom dancer?”
Gibson looked puzzled.
“I’m being selfish, I’m sorry. I know you can’t understand me, and I’m probably just confusing you even more. The thing is, I’d feel rude if I didn’t talk to you. It seems wrong to sit here in silence. You’re my guest, after all. What kind of host would I be
”
He trailed off. For a moment, the situation felt surreal. Barely a day ago, he’d been at Dunkirk. Now he was back in his flat, sharing a smoke and a one-sided conservation with a nameless Frenchman, a complete stranger who was living under his roof. He wondered if it was all a strange dream.
He stood up abruptly.
“I’ll let you rest,” he said.
He returned to the kitchen, seeking some mindless housework to distract himself, but found that Gibson had already cleared the table and washed up. He finished his cigarette while standing at the kitchen sink, staring out of the window at the out-of-control weeds. His hands were still trembling.
Tumblr media
By the time he felt steady enough to show his face again, Gibson had already fallen asleep on the sofa. The few hours of sleep on the train hadn’t been enough - he was still exhausted from everything he’d been through. Dark eyelashes rested on his cheeks. William watching him for a moment, then went and fetched a spare blanket, and carefully covered him with it. Gibson twitched but didn’t wake.

the world is small (but my heart is large)
summary:
Harri James Potter's world is small.
It focuses on her mum, her tiny council flat, her crap school and the library where she hides away.
She does not want a Hogwarts letter.
She does not want a soulmate.
(Too bad she gets that and more.)
Chapter 2 |
CHAPTER 1: my mum cries and my dad stays dead
CHAPTER SUMMARY: Harri Potter's only family is her mum (but she does hate her dead dad a little bit. Just a little bit though.)
The best way to win at marbles, Harri thinks, readying her finger to flick that glass orb of swirling grey and green and blue, is to guess the next move, wherever it may hit.  
The marble chinks against a yellow and green one, bounding off it and rolling under Harri’s door and though the hallway into the small living room where her mum and Aunt Petunia are. She wonders if she should go and get it, because Aunt Petunia strictly told her, with a shrewd glance and pinched lips, to not disturb her and mum. 
Still, small, young, naive Harri James Potter reassures herself, it can’t be that bad if I just get a marble, can it?
Harri opens her door quietly, green orbs blinking like flickering street lights as she surveys the hallway. 
There’s no one there. 
She breathes a sigh of relief. 
She tiptoes against the carpeted floor, spotting her marble just past the gap of the door that opens to the living room. There’s really no point tiptoeing at all, Harri muses, her nest of curls bobbing by her shoulders as she tiptoes against the wall, but it makes her feel like she’s in a spy movie. 
Like James Bond, she thinks excitedly, or maybe like The Doctor, trying to solve an alien mystery riddled with traps. 
Her bare feet curl in the carpet as she peeps behind the door, noting that her marble is there, just beside the plant pot and box TV. 
Her and mum’s TV isn’t like Dudley and Aunt Petunia’s; they’ve got the latest flat screen TV with premium HD definition thanks to Uncle Vernon, and Harri knows this because of all the bragging she had to endure from pig-like Dudley when she went to their house and had to share the TV with Dudley, watching his stupid cartoons like The Clangers and He-Man.
He also brags about his house, all the time! Honestly, it’s not like his mortgaged house in Surrey, with its polished wood and pristine walls and always-clean kitchen, is better than her and mum’s tiny flat with its box TV and small hallway and two small bedrooms in London. So what if he’s got the latest magician set and she has to satisfy herself with her swirling, whirling marbles? It’s not like she cares. 
At. All. 
(Nuh-uh.)
Still, it'd be nice to have a magician set even if all it did was stay in her room as a showpiece. Harri focuses intently, wondering if she can simply slip her fingers through the gap and retrieve it like that. She’s about to test it out when she can hear Aunt Petunia raise her voice.
“...I can’t keep doing this, Lily!” 
“‘Tuney – “
“No!” Aunt Petunia shrills, and it's almost as if she’s about to blow a fuse. “You say you’ll pay back the money, that you’ll finally get a good, reputable, well-paying job! How much longer, Lily? How much?” 
Her mum is quiet for a moment, her harsh breathing evident.
Suddenly, Harri is undeniably scared.
Her mum’s never been like this before.

so i've started watching heartstopper and...FUCK BEN! But, also Nick and Charie are really frickin' cute <3
ASDFGHJK - but what really kills me is that Charlie constantly reassure Nick that he'll keep it a secret, or he apologises for being clingy and annoying, or he says that Isaac won't tell - and, it really breaks my heart.
Cause like, at this point, it seems like he's afraid even one slip up and Nick will be like 'no thanks, I'm done.' and I wonder how many of these accusations of being clingy that Ben threw his way??
Just some thoughts.

My #1 post of 2022
home is where the hearts are (and my hearts are a universe away)
summary:
No one truly knows home until they lose it.
The Doctor has never truly known home until he lost his.
And as he continues on, living day after day, with his new companion Martha Jones by his side, he is forced to confront the home he has lost time and time again.
That home?
Not Gallifrey, with her flaming skies and silver-touched trees, but instead a woman.
A woman called Rose.
OR: 10K words-worth of the Doctor being and angsty mess (as usual) with Martha along for the ride.
home is where the hearts are (and my hearts are a universe away)
“Someone asked me what home was and all I could think of were the stars on the tip of your tongue, the flowers sprouting from your mouth, the roots entwined in the gaps between your fingers, the ocean echoing inside your ribcage.” – E.E. Cummings
---
Martha Jones is a singularly brilliant woman. She is gutsy and earnest and has potential in spades – just like any good human, any good companion should have; after all, why else would the Doctor choose them above the rest?
But Martha Jones is also simply Martha. She’s brilliantly astute and outstandingly capable and simply a Doctor (well, in training) – she’s unparalleled in her need to look past the symptoms, unparalleled in her knowledge that she needs to find the source if she is to fix, or at least stop and relieve, the pain and the wasting away of her patient.
The Doctor is no patient of hers. He's spectacularly dazzling and informative in his knowledge of the unknown and yet frustratingly elusive regarding the information of himself. Martha can count what she knows about him on one hand whilst she walks along, shivering, in the rundown slums of New New (and many more New’s) New York:
One, he’s alien. Brilliantly, stupidly alien — he’s not got a clue about her interest and it stings just a bit (truthfully, it’s more than a bit. But, she’s Martha – Doctor-in-training-Martha Jones – and she won’t revolve around one man – one alien – she won't! – and yet, as she watches him run his hands through his hair, she can't help herself. )
Two, Martha Jones knows that there is no Doctor without the TARDIS, and that there is no TARDIS without the Doctor; it's a fact, a solid, undeniable, unequivocal fact. She knows that her presence as a guest, as simply someone to be carted off and dropped at the Doctor's fancy, will not change that fact of the Universe –  so, question this, why does the missing presence of Rose change it?
Rose, who was probably brilliant but left the Doctor all the same, why does she change the game? Why does Rose (my friend Rose would know what to do –) leave such a longing, yearning, heartbreaking look on his face and pleading in his voice?
(Why does it leave a hole in his heart?)
And despite it, despite all that she doesn’t know about The Doctor, she (brilliant, brimming - with - potential Martha Jones) is determined to find out.
“What did he mean, the Face of Boe? When he said you’re not alone?” Martha asks, red leather clinging to her frame as she stands million of years ahead of her time, under a different sky and with a different dirt underneath her feet.
The Doctor turns, a musing and honest smile on his face as he throws away a “I don’t know.” It shouldn’t surprise her, but it does – to know that he doesn’t know what she might;
She swallows, stepping forward, a reassurance (a question) on the tip of her tongue, “You’ve got me. Is that what he meant?”
(“There’s me.” she had said, and back then, he believed her – how could he not? She had captured his hearts.)
She watches as the Doctor’s whimsical smile disappears, a burdened, hard, look entering his eyes; it doesn’t take much to know that she’s just reminded him of Rose.
The smile disappears from her face before he’s even said anything.
“I don’t think so.”
He looks down at his shoes, battered and beaten.
He looks up, open-eyed and trembling.

Why EPDM Roofing is an Eco-Friendly Option for Surrey Buildings
As the demand for sustainable building materials continues to grow, EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) roofing has emerged as a popular choice for commercial and residential structures in Surrey. This versatile rubber roofing system offers numerous environmental benefits while providing durability and longevity. Here, we explore why EPDM roofing is an eco-friendly option for buildings in Surrey.
1. Sustainable Material Composition
One of the primary reasons EPDM roofing is considered eco-friendly is its sustainable composition. Made from recycled rubber, EPDM is an environmentally conscious choice. This roofing material is crafted from ethylene and propylene, both of which are derived from natural gas and oil. By utilizing recycled materials in its production, EPDM reduces the demand for new resources and minimizes waste in landfills.
2. Energy Efficiency
EPDM roofing is known for its excellent energy efficiency. The black surface of EPDM roofs can absorb heat, making them ideal for colder climates. However, many manufacturers now produce white or light-colored EPDM membranes that reflect sunlight. These reflective surfaces can help reduce cooling costs during warmer months, contributing to lower energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. This energy efficiency not only benefits building owners in terms of reduced utility bills but also contributes to the overall sustainability of the environment.
3. Longevity and Durability
EPDM roofs are designed to last. With a lifespan of 30 to 50 years, EPDM roofing systems are highly durable and resistant to weather elements such as UV rays, ozone, and extreme temperatures. This longevity means fewer replacements and repairs over time, which translates to less waste generated from discarded roofing materials. By choosing EPDM roofing, Surrey building owners can significantly reduce their environmental impact over the lifespan of the roof.
Tumblr media
4. Low Maintenance Requirements
The maintenance needs of EPDM roofing systems are minimal compared to other roofing materials. Regular inspections and simple cleaning are often sufficient to keep the roof in optimal condition. This low maintenance requirement reduces the need for harmful cleaning chemicals and extensive repairs, contributing to a healthier environment. Moreover, the durability of EPDM means that less frequent maintenance translates into fewer resources consumed over time.
5. Recyclability
At the end of its lifecycle, EPDM roofing can be recycled, further enhancing its eco-friendly credentials. When it comes time for a roof replacement, the old EPDM material can be processed and repurposed into new products. This closed-loop recycling approach minimizes waste and encourages sustainable practices within the roofing industry. By opting for EPDM, Surrey residents can feel confident that they are making a responsible choice for the environment.
6. Contribution to LEED Certification
For building projects aiming for LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification, EPDM roofing can contribute valuable points. The sustainable features of EPDM, including its energy efficiency, recyclability, and long lifespan, align with LEED’s goals for reducing environmental impact. Buildings with EPDM roofing can achieve a higher sustainability rating, making them more appealing to eco-conscious tenants and buyers.
7. Compatibility with Green Roofs
EPDM roofing systems can also be integrated with green roof technologies, which enhance biodiversity and provide additional insulation. Green roofs promote plant growth, which can help absorb CO2 and improve air quality. By combining EPDM with green roofing options, Surrey buildings can create a more sustainable urban environment, supporting local wildlife and contributing to a cooler climate in urban areas.
8. Cost-Effectiveness
While the initial cost of EPDM roofing may be comparable to other materials, its long-term benefits make it a cost-effective option. The durability, energy efficiency, and low maintenance requirements of EPDM roofs lead to significant savings over time. Building owners can invest in EPDM knowing they are making a financially sound decision that also benefits the planet.
Conclusion
EPDM roofing presents a compelling case for being an eco-friendly option for buildings in Surrey. Its sustainable material composition, energy efficiency, durability, low maintenance requirements, recyclability, and compatibility with green roofs all contribute to its environmental advantages. By choosing EPDM, Surrey residents can reduce their carbon footprint and support a healthier, more sustainable future for their communities. As the construction industry continues to evolve towards greener practices, EPDM roofing stands out as a responsible choice for both building owners and the environment.

Move Out Cleaning Company in Surrey - Casa Terra Cleaning
What defines move out cleaning?
Move-out cleaning, also known as end-of-tenancy cleaning or vacate cleaning, refers to a thorough cleaning process performed when tenants are moving out of a rented property or a homeowner is preparing to sell their home. The primary goal of move-out cleaning is to restore the property to its original condition or as close to it as possible, ensuring that it is clean, well-maintained, and ready for the next occupants. This type of cleaning goes beyond regular cleaning tasks and involves deep cleaning and attention to detail. Here's what defines move-out cleaning:
Tumblr media
Comprehensive Cleaning: Move-out cleaning involves cleaning every nook and cranny of the property, including areas that might be neglected during routine cleaning. It covers the entire interior space, including bedrooms, living rooms, bathrooms, kitchens, hallways, and any additional rooms.
Deep Cleaning: The focus of move-out cleaning is on deep cleaning tasks that remove built-up dirt, grime, and stains that might have accumulated over time. This includes cleaning carpets, upholstery, blinds, baseboards, light fixtures, and more.
Appliances: All appliances are thoroughly cleaned, both inside and out. This includes ovens, microwaves, refrigerators, stovetops, and other kitchen appliances. Any residual food, grease, or stains are cleaned to ensure they are in good condition for the next occupants.
Bathrooms: Bathrooms are given special attention. Cleaning includes scrubbing tiles, grout, and fixtures, disinfecting toilets, sinks, and showers, and ensuring all surfaces are free of soap scum and mildew.
Floors: All types of flooring, such as carpets, hardwood, tile, and linoleum, are cleaned appropriately. Carpets are often vacuumed, and hard floors are mopped or polished to remove dirt and stains.
Walls and Surfaces: Walls, baseboards, and other surfaces are wiped down and cleaned to remove any marks, fingerprints, or scuffs. Stains are treated to the best extent possible.
Windows: Interior windows and glass surfaces are cleaned to ensure they are clear and free of streaks. Exterior windows might also be cleaned if accessible.
Cabinets and Storage Spaces: Cabinets, closets, and storage spaces are emptied and cleaned. Shelves, drawers, and surfaces are wiped down, and any lingering odors are addressed.
Fixtures and Hardware: Light fixtures, ceiling fans, doorknobs, faucets, and other hardware are cleaned and polished to remove dust and dirt.
Garage and Outdoor Areas: If applicable, the garage and any outdoor areas, such as patios or decks, might also be cleaned to ensure a clean and welcoming environment.
Trash Removal: All trash, debris, and personal items left behind by the previous occupants are removed and disposed of properly.
Professional Cleaning Supplies: Move-out cleaning often involves the use of professional cleaning products and equipment to ensure thorough and effective cleaning.
Move-out cleaning is usually carried out by professional cleaning companies or individuals experienced in deep cleaning. Landlords and property managers often require tenants to perform a move-out cleaning before their security deposit is returned or before the property is shown to potential new tenants.

Surrey Golf Club's Illegal Waste Scandal
Tumblr media
A scandal has rocked a Surrey golf club after it was discovered that illegal waste had been dumped on the course. The Environment Agency’s investigation revealed almost 700 lorry-loads of waste, resulting in significant fines for two Sussex companies and the golf club's owners.  
Reckless Behaviour Uncovered
The illegal dumping occurred at Rusper Golf Club near Gatwick Airport. An anonymous tip-off led the Environment Agency to uncover the reckless actions of Worthing-based Rusper Leisure Ltd, Crawley haulier Cook and Son Ltd, and Bell and Sons Construction Ltd of Faygate. The district judge condemned the behaviour as “reckless,” handing down fines totalling £38,000.   Environment Agency Investigation The investigation revealed that Rusper Leisure Ltd had planning permission to raise part of an embankment on the driving range by 2 metres, intended to catch stray golf balls. However, this permission was only for clean soil. Instead, the company allowed Cook and Son Ltd and Bell and Sons Construction Ltd to offload waste without the necessary approval from the Environment Agency.   Fines and Costs for Involved Parties Company Fine Amount Additional Costs Total Fine Rusper Leisure Ltd £2,000 £3,000 £5,000 Cook and Son Ltd £24,000 £12,500 £36,500 Bell and Sons Construction £12,000 £8,000 £20,000  
Investigation Findings
Investigators found the embankment's surface contained glass, wood, plastic, tarmac, brick, concrete, and other materials. Similar loads were also dumped around the course and nearby areas. Cook and Bell paid Rusper Leisure £100 per load for the waste dumped on and around the greens in late 2018.   Illegal Waste Stockpiling The investigation also discovered that waste was used to create more embankments and was stockpiled close to woods on the edge of the golf course and in the club’s car park. Builders' waste was mixed in with some of the soil, posing significant environmental risks.  
Environmental and Legal Implications
Jamie Hamilton, the senior environmental crime officer leading the investigation, emphasised the importance of obtaining Environment Agency authorisation for waste disposal. Despite this, the companies involved disregarded these regulations.   Statements from Involved Parties Sara Blunden, company secretary of Rusper Leisure, claimed she didn’t know a permit was needed, believing planning permission was sufficient. Duncan Bell, a director with Bell and Sons, admitted he didn’t check if an environmental permit was necessary. Christopher Cook of Cook and Son confessed that his drivers left waste on the course without verifying the site's legality.   Legal Charges and Fines Rusper Leisure Ltd was charged with operating a waste disposal site without an environmental permit. Cook and Son Ltd and Bell and Sons Construction Ltd faced charges under the Environmental Protection Act 1990 for illegal waste dumping.   The Takeaway This case highlights the critical need for strict adherence to environmental regulations. The significant fines imposed reflect the gravity of illegal waste disposal and the Environment Agency’s role in enforcing compliance. The community is reminded of the importance of responsible waste management to protect our environment.   Future Implications The closure of Rusper Golf Club, once a renowned course opened by Ryder Cup captain Tony Jacklin, serves as a stark reminder of the consequences of environmental negligence. The Environment Agency continues to monitor and enforce regulations to prevent similar incidents in the future, ensuring that the environment is safeguarded for generations to come.   Sources: THX News & Environment Agency.

Elevate Your Space: Modern Bathroom Renovation Trends in Surrey for This Summer
As temperatures rise and summer beckons, it’s the perfect time to revitalize your living space, starting with the heart of relaxation—the bathroom. Modern bathroom renovations are all about creating a serene sanctuary that seamlessly blends functionality with style. This summer, immerse yourself in the latest trends that promise to elevate your bathing experience to new heights.
Minimalistic Marvels:
Embrace the ethos of "less is more" with a minimalist bathroom design. Clean lines, sleek fixtures, and clutter-free surfaces characterize this trend. Opt for floating vanities, wall-mounted toilets, and frameless glass shower enclosures to maximize space and create an airy ambiance. Choose a neutral color palette or incorporate subtle pops of color through accessories for a contemporary touch.
Natural Elements:
Bring the outdoors in by incorporating natural elements into your bathroom design. Organic materials like wood, stone, and bamboo add warmth and texture, creating a spa-like atmosphere. Consider wooden vanities, pebble flooring, or stone accent walls to evoke a sense of tranquility. Pair these natural elements with soft, earthy hues to enhance the calming effect.
Smart Technology Integration:
Make your bathroom smarter and more efficient with the latest technological innovations. From motion-sensing faucets to programmable LED lighting, there are endless possibilities to enhance convenience and comfort. Install a smart shower system that allows you to customize water temperature and pressure, or invest in a high-tech toilet with features like heated seats and built-in bidets for a touch of luxury.
Statement Lighting:
Lighting plays a crucial role in setting the mood and ambiance of your bathroom. This summer, opt for statement lighting fixtures that serve as both functional and decorative elements. Pendant lights, chandeliers, and wall sconces can add drama and sophistication to the space, while recessed lighting provides subtle illumination for tasks like grooming and makeup application.
Bold Patterns and Textures:
Dare to be bold with eye-catching patterns and textures that add personality to your bathroom design. Consider incorporating geometric tiles, intricate mosaics, or textured wallpapers to make a statement. Mix and match different patterns and textures for visual interest, but remember to keep the color palette cohesive to avoid overwhelming the space.
Luxurious Spa Retreats:
Transform your bathroom into a luxurious spa retreat where you can escape the stresses of daily life. Invest in indulgent features like a freestanding soaking tub, a rainfall showerhead, or a built-in steam room for the ultimate relaxation experience. Add plush towels, aromatic candles, and soothing music to create a serene ambiance that promotes wellness and rejuvenation.
Green Solutions:
Sustainable design is becoming increasingly important in modern renovations. Incorporate eco-friendly materials and energy-efficient fixtures to reduce your carbon footprint and create a healthier environment. Install low-flow toilets, water-saving faucets, and LED lighting to conserve resources and lower utility bills. Additionally, consider adding plants to your bathroom decor to improve air quality and bring a touch of nature indoors.
This summer, embark on a journey of transformation with a modern bathroom renovation that reflects your personal style and enhances your everyday life. Whether you prefer sleek minimalism, natural elegance, or high-tech luxury, there are endless possibilities to create a space that inspires and rejuvenates. Embrace the latest trends and let your imagination run wild as you elevate your bathroom into a sanctuary of serenity and style.

Whether you're looking for regular house cleaning, commercial office cleaning, or real estate cleaning services, there are expert cleaners in Surrey who are ready to make your space shine.
The Vital Role of Maid Services in Elevating Indoor Air Quality in Surrey Homes
Maintaining a clean and healthy home environment is key to ensuring the well-being of all occupants. One crucial aspect of home maintenance that often gets overlooked is indoor air quality. Poor indoor air quality can lead to a variety of health issues, including respiratory problems, allergies, and even more serious conditions in the long run. This is where professional maid services come in to play a vital role in elevating indoor air quality in Surrey homes. Maid services offer comprehensive cleaning solutions that go beyond just dusting and tidying up surfaces. They focus on deep cleaning tasks that target dust, allergens, and pollutants that contribute to poor indoor air quality. By using specialized tools and eco-friendly cleaning products, maid services can effectively remove these harmful particles from the home, creating a healthier and more breathable environment for residents. One of the key areas that maid services focus on is the thorough cleaning of HVAC systems. Over time, these systems accumulate dust, mold, and other contaminants that can circulate throughout the home and affect indoor air quality. By regularly cleaning and maintaining HVAC systems, maid services can help prevent these pollutants from being released into the air, ultimately improving the overall air quality in the home. In addition to HVAC systems, maid services also pay close attention to cleaning and sanitizing surfaces, floors, and upholstery. Dust, pet dander, and other allergens tend to accumulate on these surfaces, making them potential sources of indoor air pollution. By regularly cleaning and disinfecting these areas, maid services can significantly reduce the presence of these pollutants and create a healthier living environment for residents. Furthermore, maid services also play a crucial role in reducing the presence of harmful chemicals and toxins in the home. Many cleaning products contain harsh chemicals that can release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the air, leading to indoor air pollution. Professional maid services, on the other hand, use eco-friendly and non-toxic cleaning products that are safe for both residents and the environment. By opting for these green cleaning solutions, homeowners can ensure that their indoor air quality remains high without compromising on cleanliness. Overall, the importance of maid services in elevating indoor air quality cannot be overstated. By addressing key sources of indoor air pollution and implementing effective cleaning strategies, maid services help create a safe, healthy, and comfortable living environment for Surrey residents. Whether it's a residential home, commercial space, or real estate property, investing in professional maid services is a worthwhile decision for those looking to prioritize the well-being of their indoor environment. So, next time you consider hiring a maid service, remember that you're not just getting a cleaner home – you're also getting a healthier one.
Maid Service vs. DIY Cleaning: Which Option is Best for Your Surrey Home?
When it comes to keeping your Surrey home clean and tidy, one big decision you'll have to make is whether to hire a maid service or handle the cleaning yourself. Both options have their pros and cons, so it's important to consider your specific needs and preferences before making a decision. If you lead a busy lifestyle and find yourself short on time, a maid service could be the perfect solution for you. Professional cleaners can take care of all the dirty work for you, allowing you to focus on other important tasks or simply relax and enjoy your free time. They have the experience and expertise to ensure that your home is sparkling clean, using high-quality cleaning products and tools to get the job done right. On the other hand, if you enjoy cleaning and take pride in keeping your home spotless, DIY cleaning might be the way to go. Many people find cleaning to be therapeutic and a great way to de-stress after a long day. Plus, by doing the cleaning yourself, you can save money and have more control over how your home is cleaned. When deciding between a maid service and DIY cleaning, it's also important to consider the level of cleanliness you desire. Maid services typically offer more thorough and deep cleaning compared to what you might achieve on your own. They have a trained eye for detail and can spot areas that need extra attention that you might overlook. If you want your home to be pristine and polished, a maid service is likely the better option for you. However, if you're on a budget or prefer to clean more frequently, DIY cleaning might be the way to go. By doing small tasks like dusting, vacuuming, and tidying up regularly, you can maintain a clean home without the need for a professional cleaner. Additionally, DIY cleaning allows you to have more control over the products that are used in your home, which can be important if you have sensitivities or allergies. Another factor to consider when choosing between a maid service and DIY cleaning is the level of convenience. Maid services offer a hassle-free cleaning experience, as they take care of everything from scheduling appointments to bringing their own cleaning supplies. This can be especially helpful for busy individuals who don't have the time or energy to tackle cleaning on their own. On the other hand, DIY cleaning gives you the flexibility to clean at your own pace and on your own schedule. You can choose which areas of your home to clean first and customize your cleaning routine to fit your needs. Additionally, DIY cleaning allows you to develop good cleaning habits and take pride in the work you've done to keep your home looking its best. Ultimately, the decision between a maid service and DIY cleaning comes down to your personal preferences, lifestyle, and budget. Both options have their own advantages and drawbacks, so it's important to weigh them carefully before making a choice. Whether you choose to hire a professional cleaner or tackle the cleaning yourself, keeping your Surrey home clean and tidy is essential for creating a comfortable and welcoming living space.

Cleaning Hacks to Keep Your Apartment Spotless in Surrey
Keeping your apartment spotless in Surrey may seem like a daunting task, but with these cleaning hacks, you can maintain a sparkling clean living space without the stress. One of the best ways to keep your apartment clean is to establish a regular cleaning routine. Set aside a specific day each week to tackle different cleaning tasks, such as vacuuming, dusting, and mopping. By staying consistent with your cleaning schedule, you can prevent dirt and grime from building up and make it easier to maintain a tidy living space. When it comes to cleaning your kitchen, one useful hack is to clean as you cook. Instead of letting dishes pile up in the sink, wash them as you go or load them into the dishwasher immediately after use. Wiping down countertops and stovetops after cooking can also prevent stains and spills from becoming harder to scrub off later. For tackling bathroom cleaning, vinegar is your best friend. Simply mix equal parts vinegar and water in a spray bottle and use it to clean surfaces like countertops, sinks, and shower walls. The acidity of the vinegar helps to break down soap scum and grime, leaving your bathroom sparkling clean. You can also use vinegar to clean mirrors and faucets for a streak-free shine. To keep your floors looking their best, invest in a good quality vacuum and mop. Regular vacuuming can help to remove dirt and debris from carpets and rugs, while mopping can keep hard floors free of dust and grime. For extra shine, add a few drops of essential oil to your mop water for a fresh, clean scent. Another helpful cleaning hack is to declutter regularly. Take a few minutes each day to tidy up and put away items that are out of place. By keeping clutter to a minimum, you can create a more open and inviting living space while also making it easier to clean and maintain. When it comes to cleaning windows, newspaper is a surprisingly effective tool for achieving a streak-free shine. Simply spray a mixture of water and vinegar onto the glass, then wipe it away with a crumpled piece of newspaper for a sparkling finish. For hard-to-reach windows, consider investing in a window cleaning tool with a telescoping handle for easier access. Don't forget about the importance of dusting. Dust can accumulate quickly on surfaces like shelves, mantels, and electronics, so be sure to dust regularly with a microfiber cloth or electrostatic duster. You can also use a vacuum attachment to remove dust from hard-to-reach areas like ceiling fans and window sills. By incorporating these cleaning hacks into your routine, you can keep your apartment spotless in Surrey with minimal effort. With a little consistency and dedication, you can enjoy a clean and tidy living space that you can be proud of.

Deep Dive into Carpet Cleaning in Woking: Tips, Tricks, and Expert Insights
In the picturesque town of Woking, nestled in Surrey's heart, maintaining pristine carpets is not just about aesthetics but a crucial aspect of hygiene and comfort. Carpets, while adding warmth and elegance to our homes, can also harbor dust, allergens, and grime if not cleaned regularly. This blog delves into the nuances of carpet cleaning in Woking, offering invaluable tips, tricks, and expert insights to keep your carpets immaculate and your living spaces healthy.
Tumblr media
Why Carpet Cleaning Matters in Woking
The Importance of Clean Carpets
Clean carpets go beyond mere appearance; they contribute significantly to indoor air quality, especially in Woking's urban environments. With pollutants and allergens prevalent in the air, carpets act as filters, trapping dust, pet dander, and other particles. Regular carpet cleaning eliminates these contaminants, promoting a healthier living environment for you and your family.
Enhancing Indoor Air Quality
In Woking's bustling neighborhoods, where traffic and industrial activities can impact air quality, maintaining clean carpets becomes paramount. Professional carpet cleaning services employ techniques like steam cleaning and hot water extraction to remove embedded dirt and allergens, ensuring fresher indoor air and reducing respiratory issues.
Effective Carpet Cleaning Techniques
Steam Cleaning for Deep Cleansing
Steam cleaning, also known as hot water extraction, is one of the most effective methods for deep cleansing carpets. This technique involves injecting hot water and eco-friendly detergents into the carpet fibers, loosening dirt and stains, and then extracting them along with the moisture. In Woking's diverse climate, where damp conditions can lead to mold and mildew growth, steam cleaning offers a thorough yet safe solution.
Dry Carpet Cleaning for Quick Results
In areas of Woking with high foot traffic or limited drying time, dry carpet cleaning proves to be a convenient option. This method utilizes specialized cleaning compounds or powders that are applied to the carpet, agitated, and then vacuumed away, along with the absorbed dirt and debris. Dry carpet cleaning is efficient, leaving carpets clean and ready for use almost immediately.
DIY vs. Professional Carpet Cleaning
DIY Carpet Cleaning Tips
While DIY carpet cleaning can be cost-effective, it's essential to approach it with caution, especially considering Woking's varied carpet types and climates. Vacuuming regularly is the first step, followed by spot cleaning using mild detergent solutions. However, for deep-seated stains or extensive carpet areas, professional intervention is often necessary to achieve optimal results.
Benefits of Professional Carpet Cleaning
Investing in professional carpet cleaning services in Woking offers several advantages. Trained technicians utilize advanced equipment and eco-friendly cleaning agents tailored to specific carpet materials and conditions. Moreover, professional cleaning prolongs carpet lifespan, preserves color vibrancy, and eliminates stubborn stains, enhancing the overall aesthetics of your home.
Eco-Friendly Carpet Cleaning Solutions
Sustainable Practices for Cleaner Carpets
In eco-conscious communities like Woking, prioritizing sustainable carpet cleaning practices aligns with broader environmental initiatives. Many professional carpet cleaning companies in Woking offer eco-friendly solutions, utilizing biodegradable detergents and minimizing water usage. By opting for green cleaning services, residents contribute to a healthier planet while maintaining pristine indoor environments.
Natural Remedies for Carpet Stains
For environmentally conscious homeowners in Woking, natural remedies provide effective alternatives for carpet stain removal.
