How to create privacy in your garden
CREATING privacy in your garden can be achieved in a number of ways depending on your budget, and the size of your space. Here are some effective ways to enhance privacy in your garden:
1. Fencing Install a tall, solid wooden or vinyl fence. This is one of the most straightforward ways to gain immediate privacy. Or use lattice panels, trellis, or slatted fencing to add a decorative touch while still offering privacy.
2. Hedges and Plants Fast-growing evergreen shrubs or trees like Leylandii, Thuja, or Bamboo along the boundary of your garden can help with privacy. Grow a dense hedge using plants like Boxwood, Privet, or Laurel. It may take time to grow, but it provides a natural and green privacy screen. Use climbers like Ivy, Clematis, or Wisteria on fences or trellises to create a lush, green privacy barrier.
3. Outdoor Curtains Hang outdoor curtains around pergolas, gazebos, or patios for an easy-to-adjust privacy solution.
4. Sound Barriers A water fountain or small waterfall can help drown out noise, adding to the sense of privacy. Or install fencing designed to reduce noise if privacy from sound is also a concern.
The online retailer is selling an artificial leaf panel which can be attached to your fence or your balcony to give some privacy.
Luckily it won't break the bank, with a light colour panel measuring one metre being the cheapest option at £3.50
Finally, Debenhams is selling an ingenious product that adds instant privacy to your fence – and it's been slashed to just £7.

Ruth Langsford shares 'healthy' prawn lunch recipe

The Loose Women star, 65, whipped up the dish after a 'very long' Pilates session this week - the recipe is very straight-forward Ruth Langsford has shared a quick salad recipe with fans that's ideal for a simple lunch. The 65-year-old Loose Women star mentioned that she made it after a 'very long' Pilates session this week, showcasing the dish on Instagram. "Quick, lunch for one," she wrote. "Did Pilates this morning with @siobhanklloyd after a VERY long time so I thought I'd better follow up with a healthy lunch!" ‌ If you're eager to try Ruth's recipe, here are the eight essential ingredients she used. ‌ One portion Lettuce Chopped cucumber Avocado slices M&S Seafood Sauce Cooked prawns A small volume of milk A sprinkle of black pepper A sprinkle of paprika Article continues below To kickstart her recipe, Ruth first chopped her ingredients off-camera before throwing the lettuce, chopped cucumber and lettuce into a dish. She then placed her cooked prawns in a separate bowl before coating them in a generous spoonful of the M&S Seafood sauce. Once thoroughly mixed together, she popped the prawns on top of the salad in her serving dish. However, she then realised that a little more dressing was needed. In light of this, she blended more of the seafood sauce with a tiny splash of milk in another separate bowl. She said this helped to loosen the dressing, which she subsequently drizzled over the salad. ‌ As a final touch, paprika and black pepper were sprinkled on top. Ruth added: " battery-operated pepper mill has a light!!!" The TV star's recipe was quickly showered by comments from fans, with many complementing her straight-forward but delicious-seeming recipe.

'Easy' way to clean patios in just '10 minutes' with no jet washer needed

After weeks of wet, windy weather, your patios are likely looking a little worse for wear - but a heatwave is on the way next week so it's the perfect time to get cleaning After enduring weeks of dreary, blustery conditions, your patios may be looking rather neglected. With a sizzling heatwave on the horizon for the UK next week, it's the perfect opportunity to spruce up your patio or al fresco dining space in time for barbecues and gatherings. Yet, tackling tough stains, algae, and moss on patios can prove challenging. Bearing this in mind, devotees of cleaning sensation Mrs Hinch have divulged their straightforward and speedy technique for patio rejuvenation. Elaine Chalk reached out to the 'Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips' community, asking: "Best Patio cleaner, please?" ‌ Her query was met with a deluge of suggestions, but one product, Monty Miracle, stood out as a crowd favourite. Georgia Ettridge enthused: "Monty Miracle is by far my favourite!" She continued: "...Then rinse it after 10 minutes." ‌ Elaine Rider offered her endorsement: "Monty Miracle cleaner is the best. Honestly, it's so easy to use and so quick. No jet-washing, just spray, leave 10 minutes and rinse away with a hosepipe." She raved further: "You will never use anything else again. I was recommended it and wow I was amazed at the result. This is my patio before and after." Elaine showcased a striking before-and-after snapshot of her patio transformation,, reports the Express. The initial image revealed a surface marred by black marks, while the subsequent one displayed a patio that appeared as good as new. The lauded Monty Miracle patio cleaner is available for purchase online or at hardware shops. Priced at £31.49 from B&Q and £29.69 from Amazon, Monty Miracle Fast Patio Cleaner is accessible for those eager to replicate Elaine's impressive results. Mrs Hinch enthusiasts have been sharing their top tips for keeping outdoor spaces pristine, with suggestions ranging from Wet and Forget to bleach, Patio Magic, pressure washers, and soda crystals. Christina McManus shared her success story: "I've just done mine with Wet and Forget yesterday and they have came up great, I left it on all night and rinsed it this morning." ‌ Ann Stanton offered a multi-step approach: "If it's in need of a clean first, neat bleach, a stiff broom, jet wash then Patio Magic or Wet and Forget to keep it clean." Ann Miles provided a cost-effective solution: "Jet wash. Before I bought one I would empty a whole bottle of good bleach mix in hot water in a large watering can and wet each slab. Just leave it to dry and hose down." Karen Sutton recommended a simple household remedy: "Soda crystals in hot water. Stiff broom and scrub and rinse off." The product Wet and Forget has previously been endorsed by Mrs Hinch's followers, who praised its ease of use. For those looking to purchase Wet and Forget, it's available at Wickes for £18 and on Amazon for £21.95.

Chocolate lovers rush to Aldi as supermarket launches £3.99 dupe of viral ‘Dubai chocolate'

Shoppers are scrambling to grab Aldi's luxury-lookalike chocolate before it vanishes CHOCCY TIME Chocolate lovers rush to Aldi as supermarket launches £3.99 dupe of viral 'Dubai chocolate' Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) CHOCOLATE fans are dashing to Aldi as the budget supermarket unveils a £3.99 version of the viral 'Dubai-style' chocolate bar. Now available in Aldi stores across the UK, the 100g bar promises a rich and indulgent experience—without the luxury price tag. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 The chocolate is part of Aldi's Specialbuys range, meaning once it's sold out, it may not return Credit: Aldi The treat features creamy pistachio layers and crunchy kadayif pastry, all wrapped in silky milk chocolate. Inspired by a viral hit that exploded on social media, the chocolate has already caused a stir online. AldiUK teased the launch on Facebook, writing: 'THIS IS NOT A DRILL. The Dubai Style Chocolate Bar lands in store tomorrow! Will you be picking one up.' Fans flooded the comments with excitement. One wrote: 'More temptation.' Another added: 'You knocked it out of the park with this. Absolutely amazing.' A third asked: 'Hey dear Aldi, are these a special or permanent fixture? Xx' The chocolate is part of Aldi's Specialbuys range, meaning once it's sold out, it may not return. With no buying limit, shoppers are expected to stock up quickly. This isn't the first time retailers have tried to cash in on the Dubai chocolate craze. Lidl's JD Gross version flew off shelves, and Waitrose offers a similar pistachio white chocolate bar for £2.75. Morrisons stocks its own version—Bolci Dubai Chocolate—for £5. The trend shows no signs of slowing down, as chocolate lovers continue to seek out these premium-style treats at lower prices. If you're keen to try one, it's worth getting to your local Aldi early to avoid disappointment. As word spreads, demand is expected to spike. To get the best deal, savvy shoppers are encouraged to compare prices using online tools like PriceSpy, Google Shopping, or Idealo. These platforms let you check price histories and spot deals across retailers. SAVE MONEY AT ALDI Grabbing hot Specialbuys like this chocolate bar is just one way to save at Aldi. The discount chain frequently tops Which? rankings for the cheapest supermarket, offering consistent value for everyday essentials. In April, a typical basket of 79 items cost an average of £135.95 at Aldi—cheaper than rivals including Lidl and Tesco. Bargain hunters should also keep an eye out for Aldi's red sticker items, usually marked down in the morning. These offer major discounts on products close to their sell-by date or with minor packaging damage. Aldi's budget-friendly alcohol selection is another way to save, with own-brand options often coming in much cheaper than big-name labels. Don't forget about Too Good To Go 'Surprise Bags', available in selected stores. These offer a low-cost mix of near-date groceries that would otherwise go to waste. How to save money on chocolate We all love a bit of chocolate from now and then, but you don't have to break the bank buying your favourite bar. Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to cut costs... Go own brand - if you're not too fussed about flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you'll save by going for the supermarket's own brand bars. Shop around - if you've spotted your favourite variety at the supermarket, make sure you check if it's cheaper elsewhere. Websites like let you compare prices on products across all the major chains to see if you're getting the best deal. Look out for yellow stickers - supermarket staff put yellow, and sometimes orange and red, stickers on to products to show they've been reduced. They usually do this if the product is coming to the end of its best-before date or the packaging is slightly damaged. Buy bigger bars - most of the time, but not always, chocolate is cheaper per 100g the larger the bar. So if you've got the appetite, and you were going to buy a hefty amount of chocolate anyway, you might as well go bigger.
