A third commented: “This does the job. It is cheap and effective. What you want.”

More winter laundry tips

Tackling laundry in the winter can be a challenge, but these handy tips can help you stay on top of it:

  • Use a Dehumidifier: Place a dehumidifier in your drying area to speed up the drying process and prevent dampness.
  • Spin Cycle Boost: Run an extra spin cycle on your washing machine to remove excess water from clothes, reducing drying time.
  • Indoor Drying Rack: Invest in a good-quality indoor drying rack and position it near a radiator or in a well-ventilated room.
  • Tumble Dryer Balls: Add tumble dryer balls to your dryer to help clothes dry faster and reduce static cling.
  • Space-Saving Hangers: Use space-saving hangers or a retractable washing line to maximise indoor drying space.
  • Microfibre Towels: Lay microfibre towels over your drying rack to absorb extra moisture from hanging clothes.
  • Partially Dry Outside: On dry days, hang clothes outside for a short period before bringing them in to finish drying.

These hacks can help you keep your laundry routine efficient and your clothes fresh, even during the colder months.

Whilst someone else shared: “These are so useful for hanging a few socks/undies to try, or a hand towel…

“I wouldn’t be without them! 

“My current set is about 15 years old and the white covering is only now beginning to crack and come off.” 

At the same time, one happy shopper wrote: “This is the best price and reliable product.”

‘I no longer have to wait for the windows to de-mist’ drivers rave about £9 buy that’s a must for cold mornings

MISTY windscreens are something none of us want to deal with this autumn and winter.

But luckily cash-savvy drivers have been raving over an affordable Amazon bargain that tackles the annoying – and dangerous – issue in just minutes.

By now, most of us have come across dehumidifiers for our homes – but did you know there are similar gadgets designed for your car as well?

Retailing for a purse-friendly £9.99, the Reusable Microwaveable Moisture Absorbing Bag is bound to become a game-changer, as the temperatures are begin to drop.

The basics behind misty windscreens are that the air inside your car has millions of little water droplets in it.

When you get in the car or if it’s parked in sunlight, the resulting heat causes the vapour to rise and come into contact with your windscreen, where it condenses and forms a mist.

However, all that doesn’t really help when you’re sat in a cold car, with the air-conditioning on full blast and the windows open, trying not to be late for work or the school run.

The de-mister is essentially a bag full of water-absorbing granules – it soaks up all the extra water in the air, so you get a clear windscreen.

Just leave it on your dash the night before and let it get to work – and the best bit is that it’s reusable.

Once every couple of months, pop it in the microwave for 10 minutes and it’s ready to go.

According to the online retailer, the car essential absorbs over 400ml of moisture.

Simply place the anti slip pad on your dashboard or real shelf and put the 1KG Bag on top and the magic will take place.

With over 430 ratings, it’s easy to see why the demister has become a major hit amongst drivers, winning an impressive four-star rating.

One customer who described the product as ”brilliant” said: ”Saves me at least five minutes every day sitting waiting for the car to demist.

”It must have saved me the price of it in petrol already so a win win for the environment too.”

Another tried using it in their laundry room – and had nothing but good things to say.

Most common illegal driving activities

Here's a list of reckless driving behaviour and the fines and penalties you risk getting from it.

  • Using phone while driving
    A cheeky glance at a phone screen will result in six penalty points on your licence and a £200 fine.
    New drivers might lose their licence if caught doing so within two years of obtaining it.
  • Speeding
    Lovers of fast and furious will end up with a minimum of three points and a £100 fine.
  • Running a red light
    This offence will incur three points and £100 fine.
  • Middle lane hogging
    It constitutes careless driving and police will hand you a £100 fine with three penalty points.
  • Undertaking
    This could possibly result in three points on your licence and a £100 fine.

”I bought this dehumidifier to prevent condensation in our room where we dry our laundry during the winter and to prevent damp odour.

”It has been an excellent buy and value for money. No running costs, just dried out in the microwave when full of moisture.

”I plan to get another for my car now I know they do work.”

Someone else chimed in: ”I had a leak in the car and it kept the damp under control till I could get it fixed.”

However, not everyone was satisfied with their purchase, as one online shopper said ”Can’t say I noticed much difference but unsure if maybe my car is just in a more mew state.

”Would of been interesting to see with my old one that notoriously used to suffer.”

A second critic penned: ”During the lockdown my car started to smell a bit damp.

”So I bought these to try and reduce the humidity. it’s hard to see if they have had any real effect and they don’t seem to soaked up much water over months.

”Doing this properly needs an electric dehumidifier.”

Football club president sacks manager on live TV in astonishing post-game interview before blaming PLAYERS for decision

THIS is the shocking moment a top football club president sacked his manager LIVE on TV after seeing his side lose 5-0.

The chief of Ligue 1 side Montpellier shocked viewers by publicly announcing that Michel Der Zakarian had been given the boot.

Boss Michel Der Zakarian was axed after a disastrous run of form

Laurent Nicollin blamed the PLAYERS in his astonishing post-game interview after Sunday’s 5-0 pummelling against Marseille.

Montpellier are languishing at rock bottom of the French top flight.

The French side have lot six of their opening eight matches, taking just four points so far this term.

And the club have conceded a staggering 26 goals since the opening day of the season.

Montpellier’s latest nightmare struck on Sunday as Marseille ran riot to move three points behind league leaders Paris Saint-Germain.

But the biggest fireworks went off after full-time at Stade de la Mosson as club president Nicollin SACKED the club’s manager on live TV.

Nicollin, 51, told DAZN France: “We can’t change 25 players, so, unfortunately, I’ve taken the initiative to stop Michel tonight.

“We talked in the locker room after the game. I told him it was over tonight.

FOOTBALL FREE BETS AND SIGN UP DEALS

“And I said to the players that, thanks to their great job, they had fired the coach and that they need to take their responsibilities next week against Toulouse.”

Der Zakarian’s public departure brings an end to the Armenian’s second spell in charge of Montpellier, whom he initially took charge of for four years between 2017 and 2021 before leaving for Brest.

Elye Wahi’s first-minute strike set the tone before Amine Harit and ex-Spurs loanee Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg made it three before half-time.

And former Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood rounded off a stunning counter attack to make it 4-0 in the 58th minute.

Greenwood ended his four game streak without a goal to leave a timely reminder to new England boss Thomas Tuchel.

Luis Henrique concluded the scoring, adding a fifth in the 73rd minute, which spelt doom in bold for Der Zakarian.

The 61-year-old – who also represented Montpellier as a player from 1988 to 1997 – becomes the first manager to lose his job in Ligue 1 this term.

She was snapped without makeup and wearing joggers, Christian Dior sandals and an oversized T-shirt as the group left Jake’s pet supplies.

The 31-year-old former One Direction bandmate tragically died on Wednesday afternoon.

His cause of death was multiple injuries after falling from a third-floor hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Kate had been on holiday with him in the South American country but returned home to the US two days earlier.

The images of her were taken just hours after the news of Liam’s death broke.


It comes as:


On Friday, Kate took to her Instagram where she said she was at “a complete loss”.

She wrote: “Nothing about the past few days have felt real.

“I ask and pray that you’ll give me the grace and space to navigate this in private.

“Liam, my angel. You are everything.

“I want you to know I loved you unconditionally and completely. I will continue to love you for the rest of my life. I love you Liam.”

The couple had flown out to Argentina to watch Liam’s One Direction pal Niall Horan perform in the country and, while out there, extended their stay.

After two weeks away the American actress revealed she was ready to leave and decided to head home.

She explained on TikTok: “Honestly, love South America but I hate staying in one place for too long. And we were supposed to be there for, like, five days, turned into two weeks.

“I was just like, ‘I need to go home’.”

The pair were together for two years and recently moved into a new home in Florida.

Liam was first linked to Kate in October 2022, before making their first red carpet debut together two months later.

Kate’s final Instagram post of the pair together, pictured at a wedding just weeks before his death, prompted emotional tributes from fans.

The couple went to their friends nuptials in Paris and were pictured looking loved up at a beautiful estate.

Tributes to Liam Payne

SHOCKED fans, former co-workers, loved ones and friends flooded social media with sad tributes to Liam Payne after news of his death emerged.

Harry Styles’ mum Anne was among the first from One Direction’s camp to share her reaction, posting a photo of Liam and writing ‘Just a boy…’ alongside a broken heart emoji.

Liam Gallagher said he was “very sad” and told his followers on X: “Life is precious Kids, you only get to do it once, go easy.”

Former X Factor presenter Dermot O’Leary has also expressed his shock and spoke on This Morning.

He said: “I remember him as a 14 year old turning up to audition on The X Factor, and blowing us away singing Sinatra. He just loved to sing.

“He was always a joy, had time for everyone, polite, grateful, and was always humble.”

BBC Radio 2 presenter Zoe Ball reacted to the “devastating news” on her show and told fans she hugged her own son Woody tight this morning.

JLS band member Marvin Humes reflected on his memories with the singer, sharing: “I first met Liam in 2008 with the JLS boys whilst auditioning for X Factor..he was 14 years old..

“We instantly clicked and looked at him as a little brother..that year it worked out for us but not for him and then 2 years later he went back to audition and One Direction was born..the rest is history..

“Absolutely heartbroken by the tragic news..Liam you wanted to be a global superstar and you did it bro..just can’t believe that things have ended this way..it’s shocking..my thoughts and prayers are with all your family and friends brother..RIP.”

Niall Horan’s brother Greg shared an emotional tribute to Liam, praising him as a “top young man”.

He added: “You will be forever missed. Liam, words can’t describe how much I want to grab my brother and mind him now while the world shows their memories of you and him and the boys.

“My heart goes out to your family parents and sisters and your son Bear and your 1D brothers.

“10th October we met and we started out that evening as 5 families into one big one 1D family thank you for all the laughs bro watch down on all your family and mind them lots of love kiddo x x x 1D 4 LIFE x x x”

German DJ Anton Zaslavski, otherwise known as Zedd, has taken to X with a devastated statement.

The producer, who worked with Liam on his 2017 hit Get Low, wrote: “RIP Liam… I can’t believe this is real…absolutely heartbreaking…”

American singer, Charlie Puth, who was friends with Liam and also collaborated with him on a song called Bedroom Floor, has posted a series of Instagram stories dedicated to him.

Alongside photos of the two of them together in their younger days, Charlie wrote: “I am in shock right now. Liam was always so kind to me.

“He was one of the first major artists I got to work with. I can not believe he is gone…

“I am so upset right now, may he rest in peace. I am so sorry…”

Irish singer duo Jedward also took to social media, saying: “RIP Liam Payne. Condolences to friends and family.”

In another tweet, they added: “Sending strength to Cheryl and his son Bear. And all the One direction Family. RIP Liam Payne.”

American media personality Paris Hilton shared: “So upsetting to hear the news of Liam Payne passing. Sending love and condolences to his family & loved ones. RIP my friend.”

ITV weather presenter Alex Beresford shared a news video about Liam’s tragic death on Instagram, adding: “Can’t believe this! RIP Liam.”

Meanwhile Love Island star Molly Marsh penned: “I’m so taken aback, rest in peace.”

James Cordon also paid his own tribute, describing the star as a “loving and kind soul”.

The Gavin and Stacey actor wrote on Instagram: “Talking about Liam in the past tense is utterly heart-breaking.

“I will treasure the moments I got to spend with him. My thoughts are with his family today x.”

Payne previously appeared on Cordon’s The Late Late Show in America.

Former Little Mix star Jade Thirwall – who won X Factor with her bandmates one year after One Direction took part – described him as “the first friend I made in this industry”.

She said: “We fell out of touch as the years went by, but back in 2008 he was the first friend I made in this industry.

“Both of us so young, so ambitious, both hoping we’d ‘make it’. I hope you are at peace now”.

Camila Cabello described his death as a “tragedy” and said he “made an impression” on her when she was a young girl.

Liam was suited and booted and Kate wore a yellow off-the-shoulder dress for the occasion.

Kate captioned it: “The most stunning evening, we celebrate the lovebirds.”

Devastated fans have left a flurry of comments underneath Kate’s post and commented on how happy the pair looked at the time.

One follower wrote: “Thank you for making him happy again, even just for a little while, we’ll be always grateful for that.

“Wish you well, Kate! I know it’s hard but stay strong! We’re trying over here too.”

A second said: “People saying that he was happy in those pics prove that social media are so fake.”

On Wednesday night, it was confirmed to The Sun that Liam has died.

The singer-songwriter was staying at Hotel CasaSur in the neighbourhood of Palermo in Argentina.

Witnesses said Liam smashed his laptop and had to be carried back to his room following an erratic incident earlier in the day, TMZ reports.

His death was confirmed as soon as ambulance crews arrived.

Cops discovered “what appeared to be narcotics, alcohol, destroyed objects and furniture” in his room.

Photos published by Argentine media showed white powder, burnt aluminium foil and a smashed TV screen inside his suite.

Forensic teams reported that a whiskey bottle, lighter and mobile phone were retrieved from the building’s internal courtyard where Liam’s body was found.

But cops are yet to confirm what the substances found in the room are and are due to run tests on them shortly.

The singer had been open about his battles with addiction in the past.

The chopper, a R44, exploded when it hit the ground with a large fireball shooting into the air.

Tragically, one of the victims was a child, according to local police.

CCTV footage from a local’s home shows the chopper hit the tower at 7.51pm, with officials saying it had taken off from Ellington Field.

Manuel Arciniega, who was in the area when the crash happened, said: “I just saw the cell tower crumbling down.”

The Houston Fire Department says the helicopter hit a radio tower in the Second Ward shortly before 8pm, Fox26 reported.

The tower was also destroyed, but no nearby homes were damaged, according to the Houston Fire Department.

The identities of those on board has not yet been released.

Houston Mayor John Whitmire said: “We are fortunate that it wasn’t worse, just in terms that there was a butane tank, a gas tank, near the crash scene.”

The FAA, NTSB and DPS will investigate the crash over the course of the next several days.

Van Gerwen ‘strangles’ Luke Littler and warns ‘this is NOT gonna happen again’ after teen darts star thrashes him

LUKE LITTLER created history yet again after reeling off SIX legs in succession to maul Michael van Gerwen.

The teen sensation crushed the Dutch star 6-1 in the quarter-finals of the Czech Darts Open in Prague.

The pair posed for a funny snap after the match[/caption]

Littler hit six 180s and MVG’s 112.19 average was the biggest losing total in the history of the PDC European Tour.

It was a game of unbelievable quality with the players trading 11 maximums and Littler delivered a third successive average in excess of 110.

He said: “The first leg was very slow, Michael obviously won that leg. But after it I just switched the gears and I’ve done another 110-plus average.

“I had to pick my shots everything I could because I know Michael was right behind me.

“If I had finished it he would have punished me. I think that’s the most (180s) I’ve ever been involved with. People can obviously check my past games. I think that was the most.”

Commentator Dan Dawson admitted: “This is one of the best Euro tournaments anyone has ever produced.”

Fans were also left in awe at Littler’s display, although he went on to lose to eventual champion Luke Humphries in the semis.

One reacted saying: “I can’t even bring myself to take the p*** out of that 112.19 average and getting absolutely battered. Luke Littler is an absolute freak of nature.”

Inside Littler's massive rise

LUKE LITTLER has taken the darts world by storm since exploding onto the scene at the PDC World Championship at the beginning of the year.

The Nuke reached the final on his Ally Pally debut at just 16 years of age – smashing records along the way.

He has then gone on to win a host of PDC events and the Premier League title – which he claimed at the O2 Arena by beating world champion Luke Humphries in May.

He also finished his first season in the World Series as the No1 ranked player.

He has joined Jude Bellingham on the Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe list.

And the teenage titan even had to snub an invite from the WWE.

The Sun exclusively revealed that Littler is plotting to create a fitness empire.

He is also cashing in away from the Oche thanks to an Instagram side hustle.

And he’s even the face of a brand new cereal.

But he is newly single after splitting from girlfriend Eloise Milburn following a 10-month relationship.

Check out all of our latest Luke Littler stories.

Another added: “I’m running out of words to describe Littler.”

And a third wrote: “This is why we can’t stop talking about Luke Littler. Generational. Thank you Michael and Luke, this is darts!”

After the match Van Gerwen posed with Littler, jokingly putting his hands around his neck.

He captioned the post: “This is not gonna happen again. Fantastic game by @LukeTheNuke180 what a talent. All the best.”
