Master and God, By Lindsey Davis
Wednesday 23 May 2012

Monday 21 May 2012
Is your teenager suffering from Emo Fringe? Now you may have a medical reason for forbidding the dreadful 'do, rather than just an aesthetic one.

Rebecca Armstrong: Don't splash out on your festival SheWee just yet
Monday 14 May 2012
Tent poles: essential structural component to a night under canvas or increasingly an irrelevance? On the rare occasions that I thought about them, I assumed tent poles were a boring but vital part of the camping experience. But I've recently learnt that, thanks to the Vango AirBeam range of inflatable tents, poles are over. So if you don't want to look hopelessly unfashionable at a festival this summer, the only way is blow up.
