I tried to swap my council house but got trolled for ‘living in a jungle', people say my home looks like a cannabis farm

A WOMAN has been brutally trolled for living in ''a jungle'' after she tried swapping her council house with another property. From improving air quality and reducing stress to boosting ones mood, houseplants offer a wide range of benefits. 2 Whether you opt for the Swiss Cheese plant or Peace lily, plants can help increase humidity levels, potentially alleviating dry skin, sore throats, and sinus irritation. But while many of us may have the odd plant here and there, it seems that one plant super fan has taken things to a whole new level. The woman, Mia Field, from Bedford, took to Facebook to share snaps of her plant-packed council home she wanted to swap with - and the greenery has left people totally divided. Although Mia said she loved the current house, she's keen to live closer to her family who are an hour's drive away. Desperate to find someone to swap properties with, the young woman said: ''Hey, I have a 2 bedroom house in Bedford MK41 with a driveway and a generous amount of storage. ''I love the house, it has a lot of potential but I need to be closer to family in the Watford area. ''The smallest bedroom has a superking bed with a built in wardrobe - (just needs painting) large shed in garden, separate toilet and bathroom. ''I am looking for a 2 bedroom house in and around the Watford area please. Thanks.'' In the post, uploaded on the popular House Exchange Home swap Council or housing associations UK ONLY group, Mia also attached a variety of images of her current home - and needless to say, the shocking amount of plants left people with their jaws on the floor. The living room, for instance, featured numerous Monstera plants of an impressive size and huge leaves, as well as what appeared to be Areca palms. My council flat is so stylish thanks to second-hand finds - plus the treasure chest place you need to look for bargains To go with the aesthetic, Mia had also kept the sofa light green, adding a few cushions with a leafy design. The dining area, too, boasted several smaller and larger plants - some of which were hanging - as well as a fish tank. Some of the smaller plants were sat neatly on the white shelves, adding plenty of greenery and life to the room. The bathroom - though not as green - was also home to an array of plants, all sitting in gorgeous pots. The darker shade of the Calathea plants provided stunning contrast of the sage walls and the otherwise more neutral aesthetic. How can I get a council house? To apply for a council home, you need to fill out and hand in an application to your local authority. To find your local authority, simply use the Government's council locator tool on its website. Once you have access to your local council's website, it should offer you guidelines on how to complete your application. After applying, you'll most likely have to join a waiting list. Bear in mind, even if you are put on a waiting list, this doesn't guarantee you a council house offer. Your council should also offer you advice on how to stay in your current home and solve any issues you might have, such as problems with a private landlord or mortgage. You are eligible to apply for council housing if you are a British citizen living in the UK providing have not lived abroad recently. Each council has its own local rules about who qualifies to go on the housing register in its area, but it is based on "points" or a "banding" system. For example, you're likely to be offered housing first if you: are homeless live in cramped conditions have a medical condition made worse by your current home are seeking to escape domestic violence Once you are high enough on a council's waiting list, it will contact you when a property is available. Some councils let people apply at the age of 18, while others let you apply even sooner at 16-year-olds. EU workers and their families and refugees may also be eligible. A council house is reached through a points system, so depending on your housing needs, you may be considered low priority. The council will contact you about any available property once you are high enough on the waiting list. There is no limit on how long you can expect to be on the waiting list. Mia's council house has since taken the internet by storm, leaving fellow Facebook users totally divided. Whilst many liked the greenery, others weren't so sure of the look - which they dubbed living in ''a jungle'' and even ''a cannabis farm''. One troll said: 'Wow that's a lot of greenery plants. Like a jungle in there.'' ''How long does it take to water them all?'' another wondered. ''More plants than Garden Centre!!'' a third chuckled. ''No swap to offer but just wanted to say I love how much your home looks like a jungle fairy tale!'' a fan added.

Who is golf YouTuber Rick Shiels?

RICK Shiels is a social media icon of the golfing world, with nearly 3 million fans around the globe. He has gained popularity through his informative golf equipment reviews and video tutorials. In June 2019, Rick Shiels Golf became the largest golf-themed channel on YouTube when it surpassed half a million subscribers. Rick used his platform to raise £15,000 for Prostate Cancer UK that year, hosting the first YouTube Golf Day. His videos have featured a number of celebrities, including pop star Robbie Williams and former World's Strongest Man Eddie Hall. Alongside his main channel, Rick also hosts his own podcast with more than 250k subscribers on YouTube. "We've done 304 completed near-perfect episodes," said Rick in one of his recent episodes of The Rick Shiels Golf Show, as he announced a renewal of the series. Is Rick Shiels a professional golfer? Born and raised in Bolton, Rick began playing golf at Hart Common Golf Club in Westhoughton at the age of 11. Ten years later, he started working at Mere Golf and Country Club in Cheshire, after completing his training with the Professional Golfers' Association (PGA) and becoming a qualified pro. He earned a diploma in golf studies at Myerscough College, where he studied alongside fellow YouTuber Peter Finch. He initially launched his YouTube channel in 2011 as a way to attract more clients for lessons after he moved to the Trafford Golf Centre in Manchester. As he has gained visibility in the field, he has partnered with major brands like Nike, Garmin, Mastercard, Lyle & Scott, and ECCO for content and apparel collaborations. During the 2025 Masters in April, Rick took to social media with a snap of the menu from the Women's Amateur staged at Augusta National. 3 Who is Rick Shiels' wife Claire? Since 2013, Rick has been married to his wife Claire, whom he called "bloody fantastic" in his anniversary Facebook post. He met her when he was 37, and their romance has been "incredible ever since", he said. They were recently spotted in the crowd at an Oasis concert in Manchester together. Their three children have also "fallen in love with golf", as Rick revealed on his Instagram post from the AIG Women's Open this year. "They have come away from the experience with an excitement about their own golf journeys," he said. "Getting to spend time watching some of the world best including Charley Hull and Nelly Korda has really inspired them." 3 Recently celebrating his 39th birthday, Rick has shared his experience with giving up alcohol a year ago. "Honestly, I feel much better for it. More energy, more focus, better sleep. And I'd like to think it's even helped my golf game a bit too," he said. "This isn't me telling anyone what to do. It's just something that's worked for me, and I wanted to mark the moment. One year alcohol-free, and who knows where this journey takes me."
