Land-lording it
Any experts with some advice for this renter, who posted their quandary on Reddit this week? "Got a situation where our entire flat has been restricted permanently from parking in the driveway. Roadside parking isn't available (it's metered), so it's risk regular fines on the roadside for parking too long, or risk getting towed by the landlord for parking in the driveway (he did threaten this). The landlord doesn't live here, but does regularly park his own vehicles in the driveway so I presume the whole motive is just to keep a free spot for himself. Is this even legal? We are basically screwed now. Wondering if I should report my car stolen or something silly if it gets towed from my own residence due to the ridiculousness of the situation?"
A wake at night
H20 infused mattresses appear to be making a comeback, but it's "not your parents' waterbed". Called Afloat, the modern waterbed mattress contains a layer of memory foam, conforming to the user's body and has dual-temperature control for couples with divergent temperature needs. They're also significantly less "jiggly" than their vintage counterparts. While sex was a major selling point for the original waterbed - the first one was named "The Pleasure Pit", and a velvet-covered version featured in the May 1970 issue of Playboy - the makers of Afloat emphasise comfort and design.
