Paul McCartney wishes ‘very happy' 85th birthday to Ringo Starr

Sir Paul McCartney has wished a 'very happy' 85th birthday to his 'dear friend' and former Beatles band member, Sir Ringo Starr. Sir Ringo's son, drummer Zak Starkey, and musician Sean Ono Lennon, son of Beatles star John Lennon and artist Yoko Ono, were among others sending birthday messages to the drummer from Liverpool. On Monday Sir Paul, 83, posted a photo of the pair, credited to his late wife, photographer Linda McCartney, and wrote: 'A very happy birthday to my dear friend, Ringo (or should I say, Sir Richard). 'I hope you have a wonderful day full of love. – Paul.' View this post on Instagram A post shared by Paul McCartney (@paulmccartney) Every year on July 7, the Beatles drummer, whose real name is Sir Richard Starkey, hosts an annual 'peace and love' moment to mark his birthday. As a collective moment of global unity, the musician invites people from across the world to pause at 12 noon local time to say, think, or post 'peace and love'. On Monday, The Beatles Story Museum in Liverpool celebrated peace and love with an arts and crafts workshop. Members of the public took photos alongside a sculpture of a hand in a peace sign that was created using an original casting of Sir Ringo's right hand. The Beatles are the best-selling musical act of all time and one of the most influential groups in the world, having achieved 18 UK number one singles.

Restaurant that had 'hundreds of cars queueing' sends message to customers

The owner of a viral restaurant has sent a message to his customers after receiving 'amazing news'. Aros Younis, originally from Kurdistan, is the brains behind Aros Kitchen, a venue that is no stranger to enjoying thousands of likes and views on TikTok. The 25-year-old manages several venues just outside of Liverpool, including in Widnes and Warrington. However, it is the entrepreneur's Newton-le-Willows premises that has got everyone talking as of late. This particular restaurant is competing to be named best in the North West. The company is hoping to walk away from this year's Uber Eats Restaurant of the Year Awards £100,000 richer. However, Aros and his team will have to beat off competition from Liverpool's The Bagelry, Woffle, Maggie Fu and Beak, as well as a handful of other venues around the region.

He said: 'This is our third year being nominated, so it feels good. We are staying consistent, but we are coming for the win this year. 'It's amazing to see the smiles on people's faces when they try our food. It makes me happy to see how my food makes others happy. Everything we do is for the customers. It's amazing news for us.' Aros moved from his home country to the Netherlands with his family when he was just one-year-old. He then moved to the UK, specifically Warrington, in 2016. A few years on and during lockdown he started his company. Aros said it came about after he couldn't find food he wanted to order and so decided to start making his own. The founder said after hundreds of cars would be outside his house once a month as he began offering food to others. Such as the success has allowed him to established the brand so many know and love today. He said: 'I wanted to bring diverse food to Warrington and give the place something to be proud of. We have a diffusion of different ethnicities to create soul and comfort food. It has always been more than just food for us.' Now in its fourth year, the Uber Eats awards recognise the incredible contributions of small and independently run restaurants to their local communities and the food industry. Joining the judging panel are some of the most recognisable names in food culture today, such as entrepreneur and musician Levi Roots, Irish celebrity chef and TV host Clodagh McKenna and last year's standout winner, Natty Crutchfield, whose restaurant went from cult hit to national fame. This year, one standout restaurant will be crowned Restaurant of the Year, winning £100,000 to invest in their growth. All finalists will also receive a £5,000 prize and a tailored support package from Uber Eats to help boost their business. Uber Eats has also launched the Next Gen Trailblazer Award, a new honour designed to spotlight hospitality entrepreneurs under the age of 27 who are innovating, inspiring, and disrupting the food scene. The winner will receive a £10,000 business development grant and support package. The new award will be judged by content creator and author Seema Pankhania. General Manager of Uber Eats UK, Ireland and Northern Europe Matthew Price said: 'The Restaurant of the Year Awards are not just celebrating restaurants, we're investing in the future of food. The new Next Gen Trailblazer Award is a bold step in backing the young innovators who are rewriting the rules of hospitality'. Uber Eats is once again inviting the public to nominate their favourite local restaurants online. With over 130 restaurants vying for the top spot, this year's competition promises 'fierce culinary showdowns, community-driven passion, and the chance for underdog eateries to rise to national prominence'. In addition to the grand prize, Uber Eats will be recognising restaurants and individuals across five other categories: Women in Food Award Climate Impact Award Healthy Eats Award Social Impact Award Next Gen Award Over 60% of restaurants on the Uber Eats platform are small or medium-sized businesses, and last year's winner, Natty's Jerk in Portsmouth, has launched new locations and gained national recognition since being crowned Restaurant of the Year last October. 2024 winner Natty Crutchfield said: 'Winning Restaurant of the Year was life-changing. We've grown faster than we ever imagined, and we're proud to be part of a community that supports independent businesses.' The awards ceremony will take place in Here at Outernet in London in 2025, where all regional winners and trailblazers will gather to celebrate their achievements, alongside media, industry leaders and special guests.

Sheila tries to get through to Taylor while Liam reassures Hope in The Bold and the Beautiful recap for July 3, 2025. More The Bold and the Beautiful The Bold and the Beautiful recap for July 2, 2025The Bold and the Beautiful recap for July 1, 2025The Bold and the Beautiful recap for June 30, 2025The Bold and the Beautiful recap for June 27, 2025The Bold and the Beautiful recap for June 26, 2025 We begin today in Malibu, where Taylor (Rebecca Budig) is looking at the weird fortune teller as Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) walks in from Hayes' room. They both agree it's a weird art project, and they want to know who Miss Sunshine is. Luna (Lisa Yamada) paces while Ms. Dylan (Sydney Bullock) begs for her life. She did what Luna asked. She doesn't want Luna to hurt her or Steffy. Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) is at Il Giardino. She's thinking about Luna having a gun and what that could mean. Grace (Cassandra Creech) paces Finn's office. She thinks Liam needs to make a decision about his treatment soon, before it's too late. Liam (Scott Clifton) is at Forrester Creations returning one of Beth's toys. Hope (Annika Noelle) asks how he's doing. He knows it's a matter of time before the kids know what's going on. Hope still can't accept that there's a chance he won't be there for much longer. Finn knows that Liam's condition is inoperable, but he isn't sure about the treatment. Grace says she knows Liam wants to be here for his kids, but he can't keep putting off the decision. He has to decide what he wants to do. Liam reminds Hope that she hasn't gotten rid of him yet, and she begs him not to make light of it all. She reminds him that Eric beat the odds, so why can't he? Liam says he's praying for a miracle, but right now he's concerned about the kids, her and Steffy. That's all he cares about. Sheila thinks back to the conversation she had with Luna, as she said that Steffy stands in the way of having a relationship with Finn. Luna gets her rope as Ms. Dylan begs her not to hurt Steffy. Taylor asks if there were any details about Miss Sunshine. Steffy says Ms. Dylan wanted to talk to her in person. Steffy is eager to get to the bottom of the strange fortune teller with the disturbing art. Grace asks Finn to talk to Liam that day. She reveals that the tumor has grown so 'time is of the essence.' If they don't act, it will be too late. Liam tells Hope that he's spending his time exactly the way he wants. With her, Steffy and the girls. But Hope reminds him that there are other people who love him, like his brothers and Bill. He admits he loves his father despite their difficult relationship. He asks if she thinks he's being selfish. She doesn't; she knows he has a good heart and he's trying to protect people, but this is different. Liam gets a reminder on his phone to take his meds. Hope asks if he's taking the medicine consistently as prescribed. She wants to know that he's staying on top of his meds, and he says he wants as much time as he can get. Sheila thinks back to saying goodbye to Luna, who said she's 'going out with a bang.' She pulls out her phone and tries calling Finn. She leaves a message that it's important for him to call. Luna ties up Ms. Dylan and tells her not to make any noise, especially when Steffy gets there. Steffy wraps up a call with Finn before she leaves. She thanks Taylor for watching Hayes, who wants her to be careful. Once she leaves, Taylor looks at the drawing again in concern. At the hospital, Grace gets off a heated call, and Finn asks if she's ok. 'Nothing I can't handle,' she assures him. She tells Finn that she put together a treatment plan with a group of specialists. By not making a decision, he's making everything worse. Hope is shocked about what happened with Luna, Will, Finn and Steffy. She can't believe this, and she feels terrible for Steffy that Luna is on the loose. Liam says this is why he's so worried. In Malibu, Sheila knocks on the door. Taylor doesn't want to let her in, but Sheila says it's an emergency. She can't get through to Finn. She says it's about Luna. There's something they need to know. Steffy arrives at the beach house and calls for Ms. Dylan. No one is there. She looks around at the art on the walls as Luna sneaks in and locks the door behind her. Finn hears what Grace is saying, and he promises to talk to Liam. When Grace gets another message that upsets her, he asks if she's ok. He asks if she needs a day off, reminding her that he's heard 'the stories' and he's there if she needs to talk. Hope says they will remain vigilant, and Luna won't get to them. Sheila reminds Taylor that she's been keeping her distance, and now she's the only one Luna has. When Taylor tells her about Luna pulling a gun on Will, Sheila is shocked. She tells Taylor what Luna said as she was leaving, about going out with a bang, and she thinks Steffy could be in grave danger. Luna says Steffy is making her suffer by keeping her away from her father. She says Hayes is very talented, holding up a piece of origami. When Steffy realizes that Luna was Miss Sunshine, Luna says she's going to make Steffy listen to her and she's finally going to see her father.
